On Jun 7, an interview titled "War in Ukraine, the question of pro-Russian collaborators" was published by SKY (Italy) TG24.
It is relevant because, to my knowledge, it's the first MSM article considering the possibility of the AFUs involvement in Bucha executions (1/6)
I lost my last bit of hope on mainstream media outlets with their coverage on the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) Ukrainian attacks.
"Russians are shelling themselves. This is because they can't simply reconnect an electrical grid. But they're also hiding in the plant".
Female teachers in Ukraine keep being the most rebellious part of Ukrainian society against the Kiev regime. They unfortunately get captured by the SBU and then put on trial.
In Kiev, a PE teacher got arrested for expressing sympathy for Russian's SMO.
Russian pranksters Vovan and Lexus have pranked yet another Ukrainian official. This time, they got Sergey Pashinsky, chairman of the Committee on National Security and Defense Council, to thrash Bayraktar TB2 drones.
"In Bayraktar there's more PR & corruption than combat use".
The story of Russia using the S-300 as a ground-to-ground system was made up by the Ukrainians. It allows Ukraine to cover up their AD constant failures when trying to intercept targets, because they often result in civilians being struck.
News that Russia is firing S-300 surface-to-air missiles (Ukrainian example shown below) at ground targets is producing quite a lot of comments along the lines of 'OMG Russia is desperate'. I think that view is mistaken. A short 🧵. /1
On October 19, 2022, 600 troops of the Ukrainian special forces launched a failed assault across the Dnieper River aimed to capture the Russian-held Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP)

Very true. Ukrainians should launch a counteroffensive in summer. It is very likely that the Russian fortifications in the south are laughable and that Russians will flee when they see Abrams and Leopards.
And here's your annual reminder that Ukraine is merely a breath away from a military victory.
Zoomed maps do not take away from the reality that if a breakthrough is to be achieved on the southern front by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the sea of Azov is mere hours away for a

Mikhail Podolyak, adviser to the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, admitted Ukrainian banker Denis Kireev was "mistakenly" executed by the Ukrainian government under suspicions of treason. He was part of the Ukrainian peace negotiations early in the war.
It's a good time to remember that Oryx started a list on Lancet strikes trying to mock them for “missing” or “hitting decoys”, and rage-quitted it once [🇺🇦] loses started piling up.
According to Alexei Dmitrashkovsky, spokesperson for the [🇺🇦] Joint Center of the Tauride Defense Forces, the Russian Armed Forces are successfully using Shahed-136/Geran-2 drones as bait: [🇺🇦] AD systems that engage them are then hit by [🇷🇺] ZALA Lancet drones.
Journalism is too difficult,
@Matt_Murphy15
? This is just deliberate enabling of Ukrainian terrorism for the Western audience.

A year later it still blows my mind that Ukraine spent months hyping the big counteroffensive and then their whole plan was literally to just repeatedly feed company sized battlegroups into the exact sector of front where everyone expected an attack.
The Ukrainian Security Service (SBU) has reported that as a result of a failed operation, in which
@christogrozev
and Bellingcat participated, aimed at convincing Russian pilots to defect with their planes, ended up in a missile strike on Kanatove airfield...
Today FSB announced that they have “foiled a plot by Ukraine’s intelligence services” to lure Russian military pilots to surrender to Ukraine – with their planes – in return for millions of USD in payments (thread).
Seeing Russians fortifying occupied Crimea is the chef's kiss in this totally failed war which Russia launched. This cope Toblerone is not going to hold Ukrainian troops for even 5 mins.

Hero of Russia Sergeant Yuri Shcherbakov, commander of an ATGM squad. The destruction of 9 tanks, 4 APCs, 12 IFVs, 4 ammo trucks, and 100 🇺🇦 soldiers is attributed to his squad.
Some say Wikipedia only compiles information, but this is not actually true. Below, the reasons why some Wikipedia editors claim the Ukrainian counteroffensive article cannot include the phrase "Failure" in the infobox, despite numerous Western articles labeling it as such:
⚡️The 19-year-old commander of the 🇺🇦Ukrainian IFV "Bradley" Oleksandr reports that he is fighting against his own father, who is a tank driver in the 🇷🇺Russian army.
@Militarylandnet
The humiliation at Ilovaisk was so unbearable that Ukraine had to come up with an alternative story of what happened.
Lesson: Don't break the terms of an agreement if you're surrounded.
Nine days later, it is weird that Igor Tantsyura hasn't made a public appearance yet. While there's no point in proving Russians wrong other than PR, we know [🇺🇦] wouldn't waste the opportunity to record a video saying, “Look! Tantsyura is alive! Rashists were lying!”.
Yevgeny Prigozhin claims that, according to preliminary information, Major General Tantsyura, Commander of the Territorial Defense Forces of Ukraine, was killed by Wagner artillery between Chasov Yar and Bakhmut. Let's see if this gets confirmed by other sources.
And this is the corresponding video in two parts: Sky TG24 (Italy) admits it is very likely that some Bucha civilians were executed by the Armed Forces of Ukraine because they "collaborated" with the Russians.
It's a shame that Oryx stopped updating their mocking list of Lancet strikes on Uke equipment more than a year ago. They abandoned it when there were only 113 visually confirmed hits. Today, the figure is 1,360 Uke vehicles damaged or destroyed, according to Lost Armour.
British mercenary sniper Christopher Perryman (

Some boats managed to land, immediately welcomed by Russian gunfire, but the main force never reached the other side of the river due to a competent Russian defense.
@RWApodcast
If Arestovich is considered an enemy by Ukrainian ultranationalists and put by them on a kill list, imagine what they though and did about any poor civilian who accepted humanitarian aid from Russian soldiers in Kiev Oblast.
Guys it's over
Russia managed to take down one (x1) M1 Abrams. (After it broke down, was forced to be abandoned and one of the crew dropped a Molotov down the open hatch to prevent capture).
NATO is finished.
Second part: Sky TG24 (Italy) admits it is very likely that some Bucha civilians were executed by the Armed Forces of Ukraine because they "collaborated" with the Russians.
Could be really helpful if someone provided subtitles for these videos.
Video (Part 2 of 2): Sky TG24 (Italy) admits it is very likely that some Bucha civilians were executed by the Armed Forces of Ukraine because they "collaborated" with the Russians.

Brother's morale dropped to Earth's core levels after the counteroffensive disaster. After years of grifting, claiming how Russia was weak and about to be destroyed by 🇺🇦, Phillips O'Brien is now calling for the deployment of European troops to prevent the collapse of Banderistan
According to servicemen who participated in the operation, 600 Ukrainian troops attempted to land on the shores of Energodar using around 30 speedboats. Previous to the assault, positions around the ZNPP were hit by Ukrainian artillery.
Only pro-🇺🇦 propagandists are enlightened enough to realize the International Criminal Court (ICC) is controlled by Russia, Iran, China and North Korea.
Irina Farion, a notorious Banderite, former Svoboda MP, and linguist, was shot in the head in Lvov. According to 🇺🇦 media, the shooter was wearing gloves.
This was not the first thwarted operation by Ukrainian troops to capture the ZNPP. However, the official position of the Kiev regime has been to deny Ukrainian attempted assaults and artillery strikes near the ZNPP. This western article contradicts both statements.
While Russian sources, including the Russian Defense Ministry, immediately reported the Ukrainian attack and its failure back then, this new article brings out confirmation by Ukrainian sources, and describes the Ukrainian point of view.
"The Armed Forces of Ukraine has no petal mines, they destroyed them". I don't know where that lie came from, but UN Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention official documents report they had more than 3 million in storage in 2020, and didn't report any more destroyed since then.
I will link to the article at the end of the thread, it's really interesting. But there's one section of particular interest, in which the journalist, Arbarello, writes this, without quoting Viktor Lytovchenko. So it must be either a personal opinion or an editorial one (3/6)

Have you seen the latest shameful display by ISW, calling Donetsk's shelling a false operation by the Russian Armed Forces but at the same time citing a Twitter thread that says the Ukrainians are doing it?
ISW clowns are hitting a new low here. They're calling Ukrainian shelling of Donetsk a false flag operation by the Russian Armed Forces. And in their report, the only source they cite to support this statement SAYS THE OPPOSITE THING! [Citation 19]
While there is no mention of casualties in the article, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported on October 19, 2022, that 90 Ukrainian troops were killed and 14 speedboats were destroyed.
The Supreme Court of Ukraine has decided after 5 years that the symbols of the 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS (1st Galician), notorious Ukrainian Nazi collaborators who carried massacres of Poles, are not Nazi symbols.
It includes an interview of Viktor Lytovchenko, a member of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), in which the journalist asks him about the civilians who collaborated and collaborate with the Russians, admitting that there were collaborators among the Bucha inhabitants (2/6)
All of these Ukrainian propaganda points have been parroted by The Guardian, CNN, MSNBC, BBC, The Washington Post, New York Times, even if conflicting, even in less than 24 h!
@RWApodcast
But how are they able to rotate? Western Intelligence keeps repeating that Russians have lost a third of their invasion force. Why would they lie? They are always honest.
so there's no way to call him a pro-Russian propagandist paid by the Kremlin. June has been a month of narratives created by the mainstream media beginning to crack, and we just might be seeing another narrative, of just Ukrainian soldiers, starting to fall apart. (5/6)
Btw, I'm really surprised that a weeb who had like 500 followers three months ago has managed to wreck havoc on pro-western OSINT, and has gotten as influential as to be able to baptize the whole lot of them.
One of the most hilarious things of the utterly-failed counteroffensive is the transition from "Muh OPSEC guys, Slava 404" promoted by the 🇺🇦 military themselves and parroted by the shills, to the aforementioned posting and cheering 50 m advances on the front just two weeks later
Ukraine's Ministry of Defense published a video on June 4 saying that "plans love silence" and that "there will be no announcement about the beginning," presumably of the upcoming much-anticipated counteroffensive.

⚡️Russia celebrates UN Security Council presidency, serves chicken Kyiv 1 day after deadly attack on children's hospital.
After an emergency meeting to discusss the strike, Russia hosted a celebratory lunch featuring chicken Kyiv on the menu.
Ukrainians randomly killed Ivan Surdul, a Transnistrian storage worker from Grigoriopol, and Vasily Kulish, a Moldovan dentistry student from Gagauzia, using a Switchblade. They were just doing paperwork in a customs office near the border on July 26.
Zelensky advisor Mykhailo Podolyak rejects Russia's claims that Ukraine killed Darya Dugina:
“I confirm that Ukraine, of course, had nothing to do with this because we are not a criminal state, like the Russian Federation, and moreover we are not a terrorist state"
🇺🇦 | The SBU established the identity of six people who filmed the air defense work (or lack of) in Kiev on May 16. They face up to 8 years in prison. The first part of their punishment was to appear in an SBU's video, admitting guilt and apologizing.
Vehicles belonging to the 🇺🇦 military continue to be burned by 🇺🇦 civilians in the territories occupied by the Kiev regime. According to Strana, three more cases were recorded overnight in Dnipropetrovsk, Odessa and Nikolaev oblasts.
Looking into the interviewer's, Jacopo Arbarello's, work, there's nothing really to notice. Pretty normal reports. Talks about the POV of civilians, the alleged war crimes committed by the Russians, and uses the word "liberate" for when the AFU recaptures a village... (4/6)
"But it's actually okay if Ukraine strikes a NPP. Russians are storing ammo and carrying artillery strikes from the ZNPP! Well, it's actually just a garrison and some trucks. It's worth causing a nuclear disaster, though".
Fun thread. Mentally-ill people like David are so successful in the pro-🇺🇦 sphere because this kind of "analysis" is published by mainstream media. Again, the Brits are spearheading lunacy.
I knew Hamish de Bretton-Gordon was stupid, but this is a whole new level. Again, virtually every single thing in this article is wrong, and so wrong to the point where it could easily be mistaken for parody.
The seizure of Avdiivka has allowed Russian forces to press on positions that Ukrainian forces have manned for a shorter period than Ukrainian positions in Avdiivka or further west, and Russian forces are likely sustaining a high operational tempo to try to exploit this tactical
