Over Ukraine today, a long-awaited fireworks display has been taking place since the morning. Everything is flying. Geraniums, Onyxes, sea and air-launched cruise missiles.
They are hitting both military targets and energy facilities. Power outages have begun in some regions.
— Reports of a series of arrivals in Kyiv. After the explosions, there have been disruptions to water and electricity, according to local public pages;
— A series of new explosions were heard in Krivoy Rog and Dnepropetrovsk;
— Monitoring groups report explosions in Chernigov, Lutsk, and the Ivano-Frankovsk region;
— There are arrivals in Zaporozhye under Kiev's control. Explosions have occurred in Odessa;
— Reports online of power outages in Krivoy Rog, Dnepropetrovsk, and Odessa.
The Ukrainians are mostly silent for now. Probably counting how many they shot down...

🇩🇪 Celebration of freedom of speech in the German press: How the German press reacted to Durov's arrest:
Berliner Kurier: It is reported that the head of Telegram was arrested for violating messenger's copyright and lack of moderation (read: censorship. — Ed.) of messages.
Tag24: The 39-year-old Russian is accused, among other things, of complicity in drug trafficking, fraud, and cruel treatment of children.
Tagesschau: Authorities have initiated a preliminary investigation against Durov on suspicion of his involvement in drug trafficking, fraud, and offences related to cruel treatment of children, due to lack of intervention and insufficient cooperation with law enforcement agencies.
Spiegel: Insufficient content moderation... The investigation is being conducted due to lack of moderation and cooperation with authorities. According to the police, the platform with its liberal content policy allows for criminal activities to start and operate unhindered.
Zeit: Nikolai and Pavel Durov are accused of insufficiently consistent actions against incitement to hatred and calls for violence.
Bild: Governments of several EU countries, including Germany, accuse the company of inadequate response to criminal activity on its own platform.
FAZ: Telegram has been criticised in Germany and other countries as a platform for right-wing extremists and conspiracy theories.
⚡️ Assange nervously smokes on the sidelines...

"We are already facing censorship in Europe, a stench of dictatorship," he wrote on Facebook.
Earlier, the millionaire and founder of the video hosting platform Rumble, Chris Pavlovski, left the European Union. According to him, the company will fight for the release of Pavel Durov in the name of freedom of expression.
"France has threatened Rumble, and now they have crossed a red line by arresting Telegram's CEO, Pavel Durov, reportedly for not censoring speech," he wrote on the social network X.

🤡 🇩🇪 Berlin is spending budget money on games, writes Focus (and others)
The federal government is supporting a new edition of the tablet game for children called "Snake" with an amount of 176,776 euros. The funding was approved by the Ministry of Economy of Robert Habeck from the Green Party.
The game developers have been receiving money from the state for over a year now.
"Snake" is not the only game promoted by the Ministry of Economy. For example, in the game "Flight Sim", 370,326 euros of taxpayers' money have been spent.
Sounds absurd? Maybe :) But the Germans themselves chose this government.

Russians are bringing flowers to the Embassy of Burkina Faso in Moscow, expressing support and solidarity with the friendly people after the tragedy that occurred on Saturday, August 24, when more than 200 people were killed and another 140 were injured in an attack by militants.
Embassy staff were touched and gratefully accepted the condolences.
The tragedy took place in the commune of Barsalogho, where armed terrorist groups attacked the local population, soldiers, and militiamen. The militants seized weapons and a mobile hospital, leaving behind many victims and casualties.
The group "Jama'at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin," associated with Al-Qaeda, claimed responsibility for the attack (both terrorist organisations are banned in Russia).

🇩🇪📈 📒 The authoritative orthographic dictionary of the German language Duden has become "thicker" by a whole 3,000 new words.
According to the chief editor of Duden, the biggest language changes in recent years have occurred in three areas: war, crises, and... culinary.
Thus, the dictionary has been enriched with "green" terms: Duden now includes "meat substitute" (Fleischersatz) and even "climate adhesive" (Klimakleber).
There were also crisis-related additions: "war in Ukraine" (Ukrainekrieg) - the words "Ukraine" and "war" were not enough for the compilers, "gas shortage situation" (Gasmangellage), "social support package" (Entlastungspaket), and "air defence system" (Flugabwehrsystem).
"A dictionary is a mirror of its time", noted the chief editor of Duden. Judging by the newly arrived words, the times in Germany are somewhat challenging.

🇩🇪 "Tank Man"
On the cover of the latest issue of Handelsblatt, the head of the defense concern Rheinmetall, Armin Papperger, is featured, the main star of the German industry in recent years. If not the only one, as other sectors of the German economy, besides the arms manufacturers, have little to boast about.
The article lists the achievements of the concern under the leadership of Mr. Papperger: over 10 years, Rheinmetall's market value has grown from €1 billion to €24 billion; in 2021, the concern's turnover was €5.7 billion, and this year it may exceed €10 billion.
Mr. Papperger is also not afraid to build factories in war-torn Ukraine, intends to make Rheinmetall the leading arms concern in the European Union - and to start competing with the largest American companies.
✔️ In short, he's advancing like a tank!

"Cut off from supplies". Sanctions against Russia are hurting American companies
The ban on importing Russian products has already led to the bankruptcy of several large companies in the United States, Bloomberg writes. For Alaska's fishing industry, the consequences of the embargo have been quite significant, the author of the article notes.
"Most of the global catch of king and deep-sea crab historically came from Russian waters, and after the start of the special military operation, the Whittier Seafood branch - Marine Fishing International (MFI) - found itself cut off from supplies," the article states.

In Germany, there is a real war against the opposition party "Alternative for Germany".
Comrades, do you remember how the Berlin bank blocked the account for donations to support the "Alternative"? It was just one link in the chain of ongoing persecutions.
- In early August, an acid attack was carried out on the home of the head of the AdG political bureau in Brandenburg. Thankfully, no injuries occurred.
- A regional magazine with a left-wing agenda is funded from the budget. Despite the risk of bankruptcy, miraculously, it started being published before the elections in Brandenburg, Saxony, and Thuringia - regions where the right-wing is likely to win.
- In Hamburg, schoolchildren are given lectures on right-wing extremism and participate in game demonstrations. How about slogans like "All of Hamburg hates AdG" coming from the mouths of children?
Crime summary: sponsoring or forcibly closing magazines, political indoctrination of children, and threats of physical violence against competitors.
How do they call it? In their language... Ah! Freedom of speech!

This business idea emerged as a result of the fact that Estonia simply doesn't have enough people to incarcerate. In an interview with Estonian television, Justice Minister Lisu Pakosta explained that in recent years, the country has benefited from a relatively low crime rate, leaving three prisons half-empty.
Since there is plenty of space for "bad guys," the empty cells could be rented out to EU countries, potentially bringing in an additional 30 million euros per year. Bloomberg reports that the cabinet has not yet begun discussing the proposal, which must be approved by parliament before it can be implemented.
