RT by @mikenov: RT by @mikenov: Russia’s domestic fuel crisis has officially reached historic and borderline absurd proportions in the Transbaikal region. Desperate drivers are waiting in massive lines for up to three days, only to be rationed a meager 15 liters of petrol per vehicle. It takes a special kind of macroeconomic mismanagement for a global energy superpower to run out of gas at its own pumps. The situation is so broken that local entrepreneurs are now charging fees to drive Russian cars across the border into China just to fill up the tanks. Peak wartime economy in full display. 🇨🇳⛽️ (Source: Meduza / Ostorozhno Novosti)

RT by @mikenov: RT by @mikenov: “KARMA IS A BITCH.” The West cheered for a Russian fuel shortage, and now Ukraine’s entire military logistics are burning to the ground! A coordinated Russian strike just annihilated Kiev’s hidden network: – Nova Poshta terminals—used as cover to store military drones and Western gear—are obliterated in Dnipro & Kryvyi Rih. – Strategic fuel reserves and supply trains in Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia have been turned to ashes. – Heavy military vehicle maintenance centers are completely wiped out. Every single day, Russia’s targeted strikes on military fuel stations and reservoirs are expanding further, choking Kiev’s army out of resources.

Escalating US-Israel-Iran conflict dominates global headlines

Summary

The US-Israel conflict with Iran has intensified into direct military strikes, with reports of attacks on Iranian nuclear sites and missile launchers. The escalation risks broader regional instability, economic shocks, and a potential shift in global power dynamics. Media coverage highlights the urgency of the situation amid rising nuclear threats and oil market volatility.

The move marks a significant escalation in direct hostilities between the two nations.

US and Israel conduct widespread strikes across Iran, Iranian media reports — Coordinated US-Israeli airstrikes hit multiple Iranian cities, including Tehran, Isfahan, and Natanz, according to Iranian state media and Al Jazeera correspondents. The attacks suggest a strategic shift toward sustained military pressure on Iran’s nuclear and defense infrastructure.

The narrative suggests a departure from proxy conflicts to direct state-on-state warfare.

The timeline underscores the intractability of the dispute and the risks of further escalation.

RT by @mikenov: RT by @mikenov: 🇺🇦 Budanov called on Ukrainians in Crimea to be understanding of the temporary difficulties with electricity, water and fuel on the peninsula, because these are “inconveniences for the sake of a greater goal.” According to him, Ukraine’s main task now is to cut off the southern logistics of the Russian troops, through which the occupiers supply their “Dnepr” group.
