Seeing folks point out people on the roof shortly before the drone strike at the Kremlin proves something fishy was happening (false flag, etc).

But, as RFE/RL's @kromark noted—this appears to be video of the *second* drone and the people were checking out damage from the first. Evidence for this comes from two videos from a Moscow broadcaster showing the strikes.

In the first, the Spasskaya Tower clock shows the time at ~2:27am and shows the drone splash fire on the domed Kremlin building.

The attachments to the government's Motion in Support of Pretrial Detention for Jack Teixeira that just dropped has some interesting bits in it.

Here's an interaction on Discord where Teixeira seems confident the leaks can't be traced back to him (oops).
storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco… Image Also includes some conversations Jack had with other users once his images started making the rounds outside the servers he was active in.

And there's the farewell message he wrote in March that @AricToler already dug up. ImageImageImage

Appears that Ukrainian forces are back in control of Sviatohirsk. Images shared online show the Ukrainian flag at the city council building and soldiers in the city across the river from the Sviatohirsk Lavra. ImageImageImageImage There are also photos/videos from Bohorodychne nearby. This video shows what's left of the city's monastery buildings, one of which was destroyed on May 17 by an apparent Russian cruise missile strike.

Latest @Newsy + @bellingcat investigation is on Ukraine’s cultural heritage, which has become another front in Russia’s war in Ukraine. @MaximEdwards and I looked at multiple sites that’ve been damaged since the invasion began. Video by @vandiche here: One particular area that’s been hit hard is the famous Sviatohirsk Lavra near the border of the Donetsk/Kharkiv Oblasts.

The Lavra itself has been shelled at least 3 times since early March and 5 other church buildings associated with the Lavra have been damaged or destroyed. Image

There were photos of both the Tochka tail section and submunitions nearby: ImageImageImageImage

Images of what appears to be a nose section for a 9M54-series guided missile near Avdiivka just north of Donetsk. These were shared on Facebook by the Ukrainian National Police as well as a local media outlet:

Link 2: facebook.com/vostochniyvari… For reference, see this write-up on a previous incident with cluster variant of the 9M54-series in Pokrovsk earlier this month by @Arms_Research: armamentresearch.com/russian-9m54-s…

Also used in Chornomorske village, documented by @EliotHiggins in this thread here:

The man who broke into a Capitol window using a police riot shield in this video from @BGOnTheScene appears to be both a Proud Boy and, possibly, a former Marine. A short thread on what we know:
First off, we need a better image of the man's face. Getty Images has one such photo showing him flanking a man who would later be identified as Doug Jensen, from Des Moines, Iowa.

Latest @Newsy + @bellingcat video on the Capitol riots is out. Working with @gianfiorella, @N_Waters89 and the rest of the team we searched through videos of Trump supporters who had broken into the Capitol building and pinpointed where they were.
The main crowds of Trump supporters outside the Capitol built up on both the east and west sides of the building. On both sides they eventually overran the thin lines of Capitol Police and swarmed the building's entrances.

Some of these folks have already been ID'd, such as Jake Angeli (the "Q Shaman") and Jason Tankersley (the neo-Nazi bearded guy on page 14 with the Dishonored tattoo on his hand rightwing people accused of being Antifa). Another one of the persons of interest in the @DCPoliceDept release apparently worked for a local Maryland marketing company:

Latest @Newsy + @bellingcat investigation takes a look at the massive trove of leaked data tied to neo-Nazi forum Iron March. There were more than a thousands users on the forum of varying backgrounds. Worryingly, some appeared to be in the US military. The leaked data included lots of data like emails, dates of birth, IP addresses & login times — all of it tied to individual usernames. Using that data, Newsy and Bellingcat were able to identify a handful of former and active duty service members with the Navy, Marines and Army.
