First Latvia banned Russian flags & St. George ribbons. Then they knocked down the monuments to Soviet liberators. Now they’ve even outlawed the classic Russian folk song “Katyusha.”

Latvians caught singing it in public earlier this month were immediately arrested:

Vladimir Putin arrived at the SCO summit: The second official day of the forum in Samarkand has begun.

The head of the Dnipropetrovsk region confirmed that the target of today's strike in Krivoy Rog was once again the hydraulic structures on the Ingulets River.

Everything indicates that the RF Armed Forces are seriously aiming to disable the facility and prevent its repair.

Translated from Rybar

▪️ Due to the rise in the water level in the Ingulets River after the strikes of the Russian Armed Forces on the dam in Krivoy Rog, part of the crossings became unsuitable for movement. On the left bank, a Ukrainian group with about 30 armored vehicles was cut off.

▪️ Russian artillery and MLRS, as well as bomber aircraft, attacked the “gut” in the Sukhoi Stavka sector all night. The village was turned into ruins and actually ceased to exist as a settlement. Plantings around were also destroyed: only stumps remained in their place.

▪️ The exact number of losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is unknown, however, ambulances transported the wounded to Bereznegovatoe until the morning. Damaged Ukrainian equipment is sent for repairs in Nikolaev.

Today, the world must see what the Russian army left behind. Over 400 graves in the forest near Izyum, Volodymyr Zelenskyi.

👉And the Western media will suck this up...so will Ukrainians👈

Here Sasha @sashakots Kots writes:

“By the way, I know about a couple of mass graves around Izyum, which Zelensky is talking about now, playing a new Bucha.

These are the "brotherhood" graves of those whom the Kyiv commanders refused to take. Near Suligovka, Dolgenkiy, Kamyshevakha.

At that time, the Ukrainian command was contacted via communication, offered a humanitarian pause, and guaranteed security. Just take your corpses. In response, only offensive language.

What was left was collected and buried in common graves."

Yes, actually, we published videos from those places back in May. Exactly the situation that a colleague is talking about - the bodies of the fighters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were thrown by their own commanders in the fields to be eaten by animals. Ours took out the bodies of dead enemies under enemy fire. Because for the Russian enemy is only an enemy with weapons.

https://news.1rj.ru/str/MedvedevVesti/9329

And they were buried in mass graves only because the Ukrainian military refused to take the bodies.
In general, I have a suspicion that now the exhumation is taking place in the very place that appears on the May video.

Sasha Kots writes: "Right now Ukrainians are heroically digging out those whom we buried and recorded on videos."

They didn’t want to take their dead brothers, but now they are happy, they probably came in handy!

Already, from many cities of the Kharkiv region - Balakleya, Izyum, Kupyansk - there are reports, videos and photographs about repressions and killings of civilians. These crimes will soon be presented by the Ukropian Nazis and their Western propagandists as "committed by Russian and Republican troops." They lie. Again, a cynical and obvious provocation, as in Bucha, which only the brainwashed and brainless will believe in. It should now be clear to any competent person which side is committing war crimes and atrocities and which is not. One side deliberately bombards schools, hospitals and civilian areas with heavy (and even illegal) artillery, the other does not. One side drops illegal petal mines and cluster munitions on civilian areas, the other does not. One side tortures and kills prisoners of war, films and publishes videos and photos of them doing it, while the other does not. One side makes tattoos and flags with swastikas and shouts Nazi slogans like "Glory to Bandera" and "Heil Hitler", the other does not. One side is supported by 21st century Nazis, state sponsors of terrorist attacks from South America to Syria, from Lebanon to Libya and everywhere in between. The other side opposes them.

Can there be any doubt as to who is who?

These Nazis are not just liars, but pathological liars who have proven over and over again that not only is literally everything they say is a lie, but is 180 degrees opposite of the truth. And they keep telling these lies. Lies that will not deceive even chimpanzees, because they know that there are those who are themselves fools, cowards and liars who will at least pretend to believe them. The worst kind of fools, because they are too stupid to even want to know the truth. The worst kind of cowards, because they are afraid of the responsibility for their actions, which requires knowing the truth. And the worst kind of liars, because they lie to themselves. And those who are ready to lie to themselves are also accomplices in the lies of these Nazis, and therefore accomplices in their crimes. Those whose critical thinking skills and ability to discern the truth are lower than that of a monkey can hardly be called human, because humans are Homo Sapiens and "sapiens" means "wise" and it is impossible to be wise if you refuse to see the truth.

So, now "filtrations" are already taking place in the Kharkiv region, people are being taken away, people are being executed right on the street and even inside their homes for the crime of "collaboration" with the Russian forces, the forces that controlled this area for several months, during which not only there were no credible reports of atrocities, but more than that, the Russians began to rebuild homes and schools and brought in literally thousands of tons of humanitarian aid. If all of a sudden Ukrainian and Western propagandists start reporting on these civilians being killed, civilians they themselves have killed, who could be foolish enough to believe their blatant lies if they say the Russians did it?

These atrocities are committed deliberately and on purpose to influence world public opinion, and as the saying goes, "a lie can travel half the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes." Taking a critical look at and loudly condemning clearly fake news about war crimes is a vital part of not only exposing these crimes, but also preventing them. People's lives are at stake, and these people, and all good people, depend on you to have the wisdom to tell the truth from the obvious lie and tell it. And, above all, to understand and remember that this can easily happen, and one day it can happen, if we do not stop this lie, that you will be in their place, and that God forbid that you yourself find yourself in such a situation.

Ukrainian attack on the centre of Kherson - details about the victims and injured

Authorities in the Kherson region reported that the death toll from the Ukrainian strike on the building of the regional administration in Kherson has risen to three people.

The driver of the head of the Department of Labour and two bystanders died.

“There are no casualties among members of the government after today's attack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the administration building. Most of the victims of the missile strike are civilians passing by.

Please note that there were no military personnel in the administration building, only civilian personnel.

The administration staff showed real courage and determination in action at that moment. Acting head of the administration of the Kherson region Sergey Eliseev led the evacuation and left the building among the last.

The men covered the women from shrapnel during the strike and helped during the evacuation.

Ambulances arrived at the administration building within minutes.

We responsibly declare that a missile attack on the administration of the Kherson region is a planned terrorist act, the responsibility for which lies with the military-political leadership of Ukraine.

We emphasize that the building was not used for military purposes, only civilian personnel were inside.

Also, as a result of the missile strike of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, nearby residential buildings were damaged,» the administration of the Kherson region reported.

As a result of the impact of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, 13 people were injured, the regional Ministry of Health specified.

The injured were promptly taken to the medical institutions of Kherson: 3 patients are in serious condition, 10 are in moderate condition.

The injured are provided with all the necessary medical assistance.

“The Kyiv regime has crossed all the limits of what is permitted”: statement by the head of the LPR on the terrorist attack in Luhansk
16.09.2022 - 14:55
The head of the LPR, Leonid Pasechnik, issued a statement on the vile terrorist attack organized by the Kyiv regime in Luhansk.

“Today, as a result of a terrorist act, the LPR Prosecutor General Sergei Gorenko and his deputy Ekaterina Steglenko were killed.

The explosion that took place in the building of the General Prosecutor's Office of the Luhansk People's Republic demonstrated that the Kyiv regime had gone beyond all possible limits. Today's incident once again confirms that Ukraine, under its current leadership, is a terrorist state.

Authorized law enforcement agencies organized a search for persons involved in the commission of this crime.

The situation in the Republic is under control. We, the inhabitants of the LPR, should not panic, since this is precisely what the terrorists are aiming at,” Pasechnik stressed.

The Kyiv regime will be punished for every crime, - Head of the DPR
16.09.2022 - 16:20

The head of the DPR, Denis Pushilin, issued a statement after the terrorist attacks that Ukrainian criminals committed today in several cities of the Donbass and Kherson region.

“Today, Ukrainian neo-Nazis almost simultaneously committed bloody vile crimes in Lugansk, Kherson and Berdyansk.

An extremely cynical terrorist attack took place in the fraternal Lugansk People's Republic. As a result, LPR Prosecutor General Sergei Gorenko and his deputy Ekaterina Steglenko were killed.

An equally monstrous tragedy happened in Kherson: according to preliminary information, as a result of a strike on the city center, one person was killed, four more were injured, including two children.

In addition, in Berdyansk, literally next to the house, deputy mayor Oleg Boyko and his wife Lyudmila were treacherously killed.

I will add that the shelling of the cities of the Donetsk People's Republic continues.

Over the past day alone, hundreds of shells were fired from the Ukrainian side, three residents died, 12 were injured. And the shelling does not stop, the cannonade from the positions of Kyiv is heard in any part of Donetsk.

I express my deepest condolences to the families and friends of the victims. I wish a speedy recovery to the wounded.

All these facts of war crimes are further evidence that Kyiv is interested in the greatest possible terror and bloodshed, in the most monstrous tragedies, in the murder of civilians.

In addition, in Ukraine they want us to be confused, scared, retreated. But this will never happen - it is high time for these non-humans to understand that for each of their crimes they will definitely be punished. The vile Kyiv regime and its henchmen terrorists will have a sad ending.”
