‼️ Putin Doesn’t Plan to Surrender: War Will Last for Years — NYT
The Kremlin is betting on a protracted war and the exhaustion of the West, considering this strategy viable.
Despite the weakening of Russia’s positions in Armenia, Kazakhstan and Syria, Moscow hopes to wait out the West.
There are still many countries that support or remain neutral towards Russia. The Kremlin believes that the outcome of the war in Ukraine will determine the country’s international reputation and therefore will continue hostilities regardless of the costs and actions of the West.

TOO LATE: A still frame of a video taken in St. Petersburg as a UKR FP-1 drone (Purple Circle) dives on target. A Russian Su-35 fighter (Red Circle) is trying to maneuver for a shot on the FP-1. Slow and low, the Su-35 couldn’t get weapons on and the FP-1 dove for the kill.

🇷🇺🇷🇺The “Needle of Koschei” of Russia’s Energy Sector
In the Yamal tundra, near the Pravaya Khetta River, lies what is considered the most vulnerable point in Russia’s gas industry — the “Yamal Cross.” At this tiny junction, 17 major gas pipelines, each 1.2–1.4 meters in diameter, intersect. Under enormous pressure (54–100 atmospheres), they carry thousands of cubic meters of natural gas every hour.
If anything were to happen there, 57% of Russia’s electricity generation could disappear.
The consequences for Russia’s domestic infrastructure would be catastrophic. This single hub handles 85% of all the natural gas produced in Russia. Disrupting it would immediately leave vast regions without power. The energy systems of the Urals and European Russia would face rolling blackouts, while the country’s largest industrial plants and factories would be left without electricity and heat.

🇺🇦💪When, during negotiations in Abu Dhabi, the Russians started saying something about territories, Budanov would address the speaker and ask:
“Excuse me, could you remind me of your last name?”
Then he would write something down in his notebook.
After that, the Russians stopped talking about territories.— @OlenaRohoza Jul 24, 2026

Keane: Ukraine can put 10,000 drones in the air in a single day.
The entire US Army does not have 10,000 drones. Ukraine’s defense industry gets new technology into soldiers’ hands at a speed that is nothing short of remarkable. 1/
