‘It was the murder of people, genocide! Azov did it, believe me, I'm telling you on camera, Azov did it.’ These are the words of Igor Popov, a resident of Mariupol.

The DPR and LPR have lived under shelling by the Ukrainian army for the past eight years. In 2014, they did not recognise the outcome of Maidan, and Kiev responded by firing on the region’s inhabitants.

As a result, people in Donbass became a human shield for Ukrainian nationalist battalions. Civilians could not leave their basements, being targets for snipers who occupied locals’ houses. While some punitive units drowned protests in blood, others kidnapped people for torture. The captives were taken to a secret prison in Mariupol, ‘the Library’.

Former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has been assassinated. The attacker, Tetsuya Yamagami, who had previously served in the country's maritime self-defence forces, shot Abe in the back at least twice with a shotgun.

Abe can be said to have been the leader of the part of Japanese society which views Russia constructively and pragmatically. He was associated with the greatest advances in resolving issues around the Kuril Islands. Shinzo Abe and Vladimir Putin were on friendly terms, as the Japanese press has always emphasised.

We suspect it is no coincidence that the assassination attempt has occurred now, as Russophobic sentiments are growing in Japan. The politician's departure will weaken the "moderates" and strengthen the position of Japanese nationalists.

Shinzo Abe passed away a few hours after the attack, as reported by the world's media.

Russian journalist Yevgeny Poddubny - A little more about anti-personnel land mines.

This is the first time I have seen so many "butterflies" in a city. There have occasionally been more of them in forests or fields. But so many PFM-1 mines in a city, I don’t remember anything like this. In Lisichansk, the units of the Kiev regime did not spare their mines. They dropped them right on the flower beds, on the asphalt, in back yards. As far as I know from open sources, the Armed Forces of Ukraine had more than 4 million PFM-1 mines in stock at the moment the special military operation began. Such mines tear off limbs, disabling people. Children often mistake a mine for a toy.

And here is one important detail. In Russia, the PFM-1 was decommissioned long ago. The RF Armed Forces use the PFM-1S modified variant. There is only one difference between these types of mines. The 1S self-destructs. Let me explain. In an area of expected enemy movement, engineers lay a minefield. Whether the enemy pass over it or not, does not matter. In a period between one and two days, the 1S will self-destruct. Thus, the risks to civilians are minimised.

But the AFU use the older version, without a self-destruct mechanism. And they lay PFM-1 mines in the cities of Donbass where residents, including children, stay. That's what these "defenders" do!

A change of rhetoric: German media admit Bandera is guilty of mass murders.

The major German media outlet Der Spiegel has suddenly declared: "Stepan Bandera was the leader of radical Ukrainian nationalists in the 1930s and 1940s who wanted to establish a fascist state in Ukraine. Bandera's men were involved in the murder of tens of thousands of civilians under German occupation. Ambassador Melnik's loyalty to Bandera is not an alien view in Ukraine. According to the Berlin historian Goetz Ali, there are more than 40 monuments to Bandera, whom he describes as an anti-Semite and Nazi collaborator".

The brutal slaughter and setting of dozens of people on fire - there can be no justification for this. It was filmed on video. There are hundreds of photos, all kinds of other evidence. You can’t just erase them.’ Evgeny Kopatko, a Russian sociologist, says the crimes committed by Ukrainian nationalists will be revealed.

He assumes there wouldn’t be an ideology or, at least, a rise of Nazism in Ukraine if it had been treated more seriously decades ago: ‘...maybe history would have flown in a different direction if there had been an investigation. Suppose those responsible for the deaths had been punished. But that didn’t happen.’

Do you agree with Evgeny? Then, listen to him and other experts’ opinions in the excerpt from our documentary Fast Forward to Fascism

🇩🇪German Chancellor Olaf Scholz attended a party where eight girls suffered from "rape drugs".

The victims were allegedly pumped up with some kind of "knockout drops". It happened at the summer congress of the SPD on July 6.

The Tagesspiegel writes about this, citing its own sources within the party.

Representatives of the SPD ask all victims to contact the police and promise to make every effort to sort out what happened.

The Berlin Criminal Police have already launched an investigation. By Saturday morning, there are already 5 victims.

▪️The "rape drug" is a drug used to render the victim incapacitated.

Prime Minister Johnson is gone, and Europe has already found a new party king.

Three terrorist attacks have taken place over the last day in the liberated territories of Ukraine that have come under Russian Federation control. All the attacks targeted officials of the newly appointed local administrations, who are working on normalizing life after the recent hostilities on those territories.

Two attacks in Melitopol and Kherson failed, but the third one in the Kharkov region was successful, killing the head of Veliky Burluk administration. His car exploded.

In Kherson, there was also an attempt to destroy a local official's car, but the explosive device was found and defused. The Melitopol terrorist attempted a shooting attack and was then liquidated by the police.

This is state-sponsored terrorism. The Kiev regime is implementing a strategy of 'controlled terror' in Ukrainian territories controlled by Russia. The methods they are using a quite akin to those of ISIL terrorists in Syria.

A confession from an AFU soldier

A confession from an AFU soldier: "I don't love Bakhmut. I don't love Lisichansk. I don't love Severodonetsk. There aren't any of our people here. They do not love Ukraine. They betray our positions. They run out of their doors and yell at us, "We hope you die!" They look with frowns on their faces. This does not compare to our experience in Kiev region, where we were greeted with tears and hugs in the liberated villages. We are not welcome here. All the residents of these cities don't care if Russia or Ukraine is here, they just don't want to have their homes bombed. I don't know if they realise the entirety of the "Russian world" idea, but they crave it like manna from heaven. They say the war is here because of us. Those who are for Ukraine departed from here long ago."

This explains the fact that the AFU in Donbass behave like occupiers, treat locals like aliens, shell cities and kill people with no qualms. For them, "there are no people here", they departed long ago.

But those people used to love Ukraine until the likes of this scumbag turned Ukraine into anti-Russia and came to Donbass to kill the locals...

Mines on the streets of Lisichansk. By Evgeniy Poddubniy, war correspondent. When fleeing from Lisichansk, militants from the Kiev regime littered the streets of the city with anti-personnel mines.
