Russian Telegram channels spread what they say is German AfD party 'social advertising', mocking the govt support for Ukraine. The problem is that Russian professional film actors are filmed in it, like this guy, Igor Alexeev () https://t.co/MInrzlhvPH https://t.co/DMYiIlszoLarchive.is/4Qpfu

Image
The main role of the woman who confiscates all the property from the ordinary German family in favor of Vladimir Zelensky is plaid by Russian actress Julia Mandriko () https://t.co/5xHOQXP5Dupcnika.ru/actor/3017
Image
The 'father' is the Russian cinema actor Valentin Vorobyev. https://t.co/06wMAlTnrnkinopoisk.ru/name/3230080/
Image
And the 'mother' is the Russian actress Julia Konyukhova https://t.co/B5OpijIh9tkids-models.ru/profile.php?id…
Image
Konyukhova wrote on her Instagram that the boy in the clip is her son (post now seems to be deleted). https://t.co/iDPljwULf0
Image
She also allegedly exposed (I haven't seen the post with my own eyes) that the whole production belongs to the Russia Today TV channel.

⚛️🇹🇷🧵Next year, Turkey’s 1st nuclear power plant, Akkuyu – built by Russia’s state-owned Rosatom – is finally set to go live after years of delays and scandals. Among its staff, we found a former GRU psyops officer. Our new investigation with @pustota exposes the full story 🔽 Image
Meet Maxim Balabanov, who served for nearly 10 years, until 2017, in military unit 03126 in Leningrad Oblast – a SUPsO (psyops) unit of the Leningrad Military District. Image
He also listed as one of his addresses the location of another GRU unit, 20697 (St. Petersburg). As was discovered back in 2023, unit 20697 is another GRU psyops unit, whose officers pretended to act as politologysts and experts in their 'civic' life.

1/3 Finally, our investigation, together with @pustota, revealing several participants of the recent far-right and fascist organizations forum in St. Petersburg who did not want to be identified – including Hamburg Bürgerschaft MP Robert Risch from the AfD svoboda.org/a/rossiyskaya-…Image
2/3 Special thanks to @MackjackMaier for quickly revealing Risch’s identity, and kudos to the Belgian nationalists of 'Nation,' who accidentally shared his unblurred photo. Image

🧵/ link in the last post. Have you ever wanted to know where the infamous Russian 'Rubicon' drone center is based – and who commands it? Thanks to my colleagues @pustota, @legal0ve, and open sources (including Russian Tsar-Propagandist Vladimir Solovyov), we now know. Image
First of all, 'Rubicon' is not technically a military unit; it isn’t associated with any, has no publicly known registered entity, and its head’s name has never been disclosed.
Luckily, I found two letters of gratitude that 'Rubicon' sent to the Bratskoye Serdtse ('Brotherly Heart') charity, which is run by former members of the FSB and SVR. In them, you can see the surname and initials of Rubicon’s commander – S.V. Budnikov. фонд-братское-сердце.рф/upload/iblock/…Image

1/5 One of the Geran-2/Shahed-136 drones downed in Kyiv today had a catapult mount supplied by Chinese company less than 2 months ago, on 23rd of May. 46 days earlier, on April 9-11, the company, Suzhou Ecod Precision Manufacturing, took part in the St. Petersburg Technical fair. Image
3/5 Suzhou Ecod Precision Manufacturing was one of only two Chinese companies that took part in the St. Petersburg fair. The other one, Suzhou Hongyishan, specializes on 'standard and non-standard industrial parts, pneumatic and hydraulic components'. Neither of the 2 sanctioned. Image

Israel is really lucky that the Iranian rockets mostly hit modern apartment blocks for now. Bat Yam is something of an exception – that’s why there were so many casualties. But believe me, there are far more rundown apartment blocks in Bat Yam compared to the ones that were hit. Image
The pin marks where the modern apartment complex was hit in Petah Tikva last night. If the missiles had landed in the large red circle, it would have been a disaster. Around 50% of the buildings in such areas were built before the 1980s, with no protected rooms, thin walls, etc. Image
Just tap a random Street View to see for yourself. On the left: a building in Petah Tikva located a few kilometers from the modern one that was hit last night (on the right). Image

🧵Recently, Yandex blurred some additional military-related facilities on its satellite maps. It hasn't revealed any major surprises (yet), but it did lead me to yet another 'Pantsir' system installed in Moscow Oblast after Ukrainian drone attacks.
Some examples of the newly blurred objects (mostly military complex plants): x.com/wartranslated/… (source t.me/sotaproject/98…). I already found many more, but they're mostly well-known sites.
One well-known site that is now blurred is the missile storage facility for the A-135 (ABM-4 Gorgon), a Russian anti-ballistic missile system deployed around Moscow to intercept incoming warheads targeting the city and its surrounding areas. 55.625, 37.387 wikimapia.org/#lang=en&lat=5…Image
