UK linked to Ukraine's drone attack on Russia's Rostov — Russian Foreign Ministry
Preliminary configuration of the flight controllers of the UAVs that attacked the fuel storage facility in the Rostov region’s Kamensky district in August was carried out in the UK, according to Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova.
The drones were configured in Salisbury, near the headquarters of Callen-Lenz GB, and in Newport, Wales, in a hangar of the British company Safran Seats GB, Zakharova said. Moscow considers these facts confirmation of London's support for terrorist fighting methods used by the Kiev regime, the Foreign Ministry spokeswoman stressed.

"Branches are being exposed" - Maria Zakharova compared Kuleba's resignation to falling leaves. The Kiev regime saw a surprise reshuffle of senior officials on Tuesday evening, with one senior member of the government sacked and at least half a dozen others…
Main points from Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova’s briefing:
🔸 Russia is warning politicians in the European Union and NATO countries that in the event of further aggressive steps by Ukraine, the Russian response will be immediate and painful
🔸 Any provocation against Russian peacekeepers and citizens in Transnistria would be considered an attack on Russia
🔸 No concrete results of the German investigation into the Nord Stream sabotage have been presented yet
🔸 The blood of Russian civilians is not only on the hands of the Ukrainian Army and Volodymyr Zelensky, but also the West, which supplies the Kiev regime with weapons and tactical information
🔸 Moscow expects the partnership with Yerevan within the CSTO to be renewed in the interests of the future security of Armenia and the entire region
🔸 Moscow is monitoring NATO activities on the territory of Finland and assessing potential risks
🔸 Moscow seeks to deepen cooperation and collaboration with Beijing for the benefit of Russia and China, as well as the region and the world as a whole
🔸 Work on updating Russia’s nuclear doctrine is linked to the challenges of international security; Moscow expects the West to change its course, which "entails strategic risks."

Russia's city of Vladivostok, which is currently hosting the EEF, is a beautiful place, filled with international leaders and other important people, independent American political commentator Jackson Hinkle told Sputnik.
"As for the forum itself, I mean, I understand this is a university and the university is very nice. It's filled right now with leaders from all across the Asia-Pacific and lots of amazing, important people. I look forward to hearing from them over the next few days," he said.
He also suggested that Vladivostok could become a second Sochi and that it is a potential trade hub.
"But also, when you're driving through, I mean, it's beautiful. I could think of maybe people here wouldn't want it, but resorts and tourism, I mean, this would be a great place to make a second Sochi perhaps. We'll have to wait and see what happens. But also, most importantly, it's a beautiful avenue as a potential trade hub with all these regions that are represented here today at the forum," he noted.

Jackson Hinkle: Reality on the ground in new Russian territories ‘complete 180 turn from what we hear in mainstream press’
“I think Americans should know that what Ukraine is doing is [to] beg for more and more weapons and…beg for more and more taxpayer dollars. They’re using it all to terrorize Ukrainian civilians, some of whom I spoke to voted for Zelensky [in 2019, ed.], and then they get their house bombed by him,” US journalist and political commentator Jackson Hinkle told Sputnik on the sidelines of the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, commenting on his impressions from his recent trip to Russia’s new territories.
In liberated areas, civilians who chose to stay came to be “seen as a legitimate target for Ukraine and for the United States. They will bomb you. And you know, the people are very upset by this, and they’re very happy that Russia’s there to protect them and to rebuild what needs to be rebuilt,” Hinkle said.
“I saw a lot of rebuilding going on, which was really impressive in Mariupol. When we drove into Mariupol, there was well over a thousand construction vehicles working late into the night…We got to see the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant and how [Ukraine’s military is] shelling the power plant, which was scary to be very close to the front line and to know that they have all the nuclear waste and nuclear power stations there,” Hinkle recalled.
In another area, about 15 km from the front, Hinkle said he saw “home after home of these civilian apartment buildings that were being bombed by Ukraine with US missiles.”
In Melitopol, liberated Zaporozhye, Hinkle said he had a chance to talk to a lot of people. “Everyone was very happy that Russia’s there – so a complete 180 turn from what we hear in the mainstream press in the West about the situation.”

‘Demoralizing blow to Ukraine’: What legacy media are saying about Russia’s strike on Poltava military college
Russian missiles demolished a military academy in Poltava, central Ukraine on Tuesday. Russia’s Defense Ministry said Wednesday that the attack targeted the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ 179th Joint Training Center, engaged in the preparation of signalmen, electronic warfare specialists and drone operators, including troops taking part in strikes against civilian targets in Russia.
What are Western media saying about the attack?
▪️The narrative has gradually shifted over the past 24 hours, with the earliest reports simply regurgitating Ukrainian officials’ statements, including the claim that the attack targeted “an educational institution and a hospital” (no mention of the military academy) and quoting Zelensky, who used the occasion to demand more weapons from NATO, including long-range strike systems, and vowed to make Russia “pay.”
▪️ But the tone gradually changed, with some outlets at least starting to mention in headlines that the strike targeted a military institution.
▪️ In its piece, The New York Times called the attack “a demoralizing blow to Ukraine,” which came “as its troops have been retreating from relentless Russian advances along the war’s main front in the Donbas region.”
▪️ Britain’s The Times dubbed the attack “one of the worst airstrikes” since the start of the conflict in 2022, noting that the “educational facility” mentioned by Kiev was actually “the Poltava Military Institute of Communications,” and mentioning that “Ukraine’s land forces [had] confirmed that service personnel were killed during the strikes.”
▪️The BBC pointed to infighting arising in Ukraine’s leadership circles following the attack, quoting lawmaker Maria Bezuglaya, who slammed officials for “putting soldiers in danger” and allowing “these tragedies [to] keep repeating themselves.” The broadcaster went on to note the government reshuffle in Ukraine, including the resignation of the arms chief.
▪️The Associated Press mentioned that the military school was “off-limits to the media,” and confirmed that “the academy trains officers in communications and electronics, as well as drone operators, honing some of the most valued skills in a war where both sides are fighting for control of the electronic battlefield.”
