‼️🇪🇺🇧🇬 Bulgaria backtracks on von der Leyen plane “incident”
▪️ Sofia has sharply changed its version after first blaming Russia. Prime Minister Rosen Zhelyazkov now says:
— No Russian interference — just a temporary GPS signal loss.
— The EC president’s plane had backup navigation; reports about “paper maps” are false.
— No investigation will follow: “This is neither a hybrid nor a cyber threat.”
— Such GPS disruptions have become routine since the start of the Ukraine conflict.
▪️ In Brussels, this sudden reversal caused confusion — Bulgaria had only recently pointed the finger at Russia.

🇸🇰🇺🇦 Zelensky blocks Russian energy supplies to Slovakia
After talks with Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico in Uzhgorod, Vladimir Zelensky declared that Ukraine will not allow Russian oil or gas to flow onward to Slovakia.
Once again, Kiev shows its role as a loyal executor of Western energy dictates — even if it means undermining the energy security of its neighbors.

🤡 The farm gynecologist Ursula von der Leyen announced that all 150 billion euros under the EU’s SAFE program for “secure defense loans” have already been claimed by 19 member states.
She went on to declare that the so-called coalition of “peace lovers” must turn Ukraine into a “steel porcupine,” armed to the teeth.

“We need a sharp leap in defense investments. That’s why it’s good news our 150 billion SAFE defense fund is fully subscribed. It will go to joint purchases — not only for Europe’s own arms industry, but also for building up Ukraine’s. This creates ‘good jobs’ in Europe. The long-term solution will be a new European budget. Our goal is 2030 — that’s our readiness benchmark.”

📸 Leaflets in Chernigov: “Give coordinates — get the real ones”
In Chernigov, leaflets resembling 100-hryvnia banknotes were discovered, carrying a clear message from Russian forces: provide coordinates of Ukrainian Armed Forces positions in exchange for financial rewards.
Ukrainian media reported that the leaflets appeared in a city neighborhood on the morning of September 6. Local police immediately threatened residents with criminal charges if they cooperated with Russian troops, and urged them to destroy the material.
Military experts note that such measures are consistent with international law, as they encourage the exposure of Ukrainian military use of civilian areas — ultimately aimed at reducing civilian casualties during the SMO.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico said that during their talks, Vladimir Putin expressed readiness to meet with former Ukrainian president Vladimir Zelensky “anywhere, not just in Moscow.”
Fico admitted that such a meeting might not yield major political results, but stressed:
Even Europe’s own leaders now quietly acknowledge that dialogue is inevitable — the only question is when Kiev and its Western backers will face reality.

🇷🇺⚔🇺🇦 WSJ admits Russia’s economy is outlasting Ukraine’s army
Back in 2022, Western media promised that Russia’s economy was “in tatters,” its army “fighting with shovels,” and its missile stockpiles nearly empty. Now, even the Wall Street Journal is forced to concede the opposite. According to their latest report, Putin is wagering that the Ukrainian Armed Forces will collapse before Russia’s economy does — and, as the paper writes, “at current trajectories, he could win his bet.”
Despite unprecedented sanctions, Russia’s economy actually grew in 2023 and 2024, supported by energy exports and large-scale defense spending. Analysts admit that while strains are mounting, the system is far from collapse. One expert, Alexander Gabuev, told the WSJ that “the Russian economy will not hit a wall anytime soon,” and that Moscow can likely sustain the SMO for at least another two years, perhaps three.
Ukraine, by contrast, is burning through men and resources it cannot replace. On the Donetsk front, the lack of infantry is so severe that small Russian groups are able to exploit wide gaps in the trenches. Kiev increasingly relies on drones, mines, and artillery to compensate, but as the WSJ bluntly puts it, “the country cannot be defended by a ‘robotic army’ alone.” Soldiers themselves complain of rigid Soviet-style habits in the Ukrainian command, leading to needless casualties and eroding morale.
The paper concludes that Moscow’s real strategy is not about rapid conquests but about attrition — slowly grinding down Ukraine until Kiev is forced to yield. In other words, the same Western outlets that once gloated about Russia’s supposed collapse now admit that it is Ukraine, not Russia, that is running out of time.

🔥🇷🇺 Massive overnight strike across Ukraine
Russian forces carried out a powerful strike last night, with multiple targets hit across the country.
In Kiev, the Cabinet of Ministers building was struck. In Krivoy Rog, power outages were reported and heavy smoke rose over the city after fires broke out. In Odessa, both the Shkolny airfield and the port were targeted.
Industrial facilities in Zaporozhye were damaged, while the airfield in Starokonstantinov (Khmel’nitsky region) was also hit. Explosions were further reported in Dnepropetrovsk and Kharkov.
The scale of the operation once again demonstrates Moscow’s ability to strike deep into Ukrainian territory, hitting command centers, infrastructure, and military hubs simultaneously.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 The Volunteer Mirage: Who Are America’s Fighters in Ukraine Now?
A New York Times profile from September 7, 2025, reveals a stark shift in the makeup of American volunteers fighting in Ukraine. Once dominated by battle-hardened ex-soldiers, the ranks now include older individuals, those with no military background, and wounded veterans simply looking for a way back into uniform.
The story begins with an almost surreal encounter: Pvt. Zachary Miller, a U.S. volunteer, hurled his empty rifle at an incoming drone — and somehow missed. That desperate moment, captured on a helmet cam, encapsulates the frayed reality of these fighters.
Most enlisted Americans aren’t driven by ideology or strategy, but by a search for purpose, escape from dead-end jobs, or a way out of troubled lives at home. Some veterans are literally running on borrowed valor, trying to resurrect careers marked by age or physical limitations that closed doors in the U.S. military.
The result is a band of volunteers far removed from the “elite foreign legion” image earlier paraded by Western media. Instead of disciplined units, the Times uncovers a ragtag army of misfits, second-chancers, and disillusioned souls — each with their own fragile motivations and hidden struggles.
