Nothing to be surprised at, just a toilet bowl for raising money for Ukraine placed in a British shop .
Very symbolic creative installation from British taxpayers who are giving politicians a kind of a hint where it all will end up.
I wonder how else the Brits will humiliate the Ukrainians? After Boris Johnson it will be hard for Liz Truss to surprise the Brits...

Timothy Stead - Commander of the "Third Hundred" detachment.
In recent months, the "Carpathian Sich" battalion has become a full-fledged equivalent of the International Legion: the unit is swarming with foreign mercenaries, recruited through various programs.
But while previously the battalion had been run by AFU officers, on the eve of the Kharkov offensive, foreign commanders appeared in the Sich. One of them is veteran British infantry officer Timothy Stead.
▪️ According to his subordinate Robert Roy Lane, Stead had served in the British infantry for 9 years.
▪️ During that time, the Briton was involved in three combat operations in two countries - apparently in Afghanistan and Iraq.
▪️Timothy Stead was treated for PTSD and alcohol dependency when he returned home.
▪️He came to Ukraine as a medic but soon joined the AFU. In the "Carpathian Sich" he was appointed commander of the "Third Hundred" detachment in the Izyum sector.
▪️On 22 August he was awarded the Medal of Honour of the "Carpathian Sich"

FT: US shale bosses tell Europe: ‘There’s no bailout coming’
The US shale industry has warned it cannot rescue Europe with increased oil and gas supplies this winter amid fears that a plunge in Russian exports will send crude prices soaring back above $100 a barrel. Even though oil markets have softened in recent weeks, the respite could end when an EU embargo on Russian sales comes into full effect later this year.
However, US shale executives sitting on vast oil and natural gas reserves that could be used to alleviate a European energy crunch say they will be unable to step up supplies quickly enough to prevent winter shortages.
"It’s not like the US can pump a bunch more. Our production is what it is,” said Wil VanLoh, head of private equity group Quantum Energy Partners, one of the shale patch’s biggest investors. “There’s no bailout coming,” VanLoh added. “Not on the oil side, not on the gas side.”
Asked about the prospect of a big production increase from the US shale industry, Scott Sheffield, chief executive of Pioneer Natural Resources, said: “No, I don’t see it coming.” “We’re not adding [drilling] rigs and I don’t see anyone else adding rigs,” said Sheffield, who runs one of the biggest oil producers in the US. Crude prices could rise above $120 a barrel this winter as supplies tighten, he added.
Ben Dell, chief executive of private equity group Kimmeridge Energy, said the shale industry’s investors on Wall Street would not give their blessing to a big production increase, preferring a low-production, high-profit model. “Investors generally don’t want shale companies to pursue a growth model,” he said. “The capital availability is extremely limited.”

❗❗Attention : Pro-Ukrainian and Western accounts are sharing footage of alleged Chinese munitions captured in Ukraine, it is unknown wether this footage is authentic or real, and we have no way to verify it's validity.
https://twitter.com/GundamNorthrop/status/1571342363695681536?t=WKiuCEEoZQhaHtzhMaTAcg&s=19
To address this, we are casting suspicion on this for multiple reasons :
1- no known context, we don't see enough background to make an accurate judgement
2- anyone can paint Chinese characters
3- Russia doesn't list any 60mm mortars from what we can tell
4- unknown source/posted by unfaithful accounts.
However, let me remind you about the same occurrences relating to Iranian drones, we all thought it was Western cope, and then we just came to accept that Russia probably did receive drones from it's Iranian ally.

Ukrainians fight in Nice, mistaking each other for Russians. The incident is reported by the local prosecutor's office.
Alina and Aliona, who were beaten up, claimed that their attacker was Russian and that he hit them because they were listening to a song in Ukrainian containing anti-Russian slogans.
The suspect was a former AFU fighter who explained to the police that he had mistaken the two women for Russians. The man faces up to three years in prison and a 45,000-euro fine.
Until the French police said that the detainee was Ukrainian and not Russian, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry had demanded to find the culprit for this "disgusting incident".

Russian military rescued an Italian journalist who had been blown up by a landmine.
According to the ministry, on 29 August, as the attempts of Kiev's counteroffensive in the Nikolaev-Krivoy Rog sector began, the Italian journalist went to the front line, accompanied by two men wearing Ukrainian military uniforms - they promised to escort the reporter in a taxi to the line of contact.
When the vehicle approached the combat zone the guides asked to stop the car and got out. They described the further route, having concealed that the road was booby-trapped.
"The aim of the provocation by the Ukrainian secret service was to watch the death of the journalist as a result of fire from Russian defensive positions or the explosion of the taxi by a landmine to further accuse Russia of the murder of Mattia Sorbi and to cause wide resonance in the Western media," the ministry said.
The car carrying the journalist was blown up by a Ukrainian mine. The driver died on the spot and Sorby was seriously injured.
The Defence Ministry specified that when Russian servicemen saw a civilian car hit by a mine, they left their shelters despite heavy fire from Ukrainian positions and pulled the reporter out of the burning car. The soldiers then provided him with first aid, carried him to safety and ensured his immediate transport to hospital.
"Mattia Sorby, who was admitted to the intensive care unit with multiple shrapnel wounds, is receiving the necessary skilled medical care," the ministry said. Doctors assess his condition as stable.

The Ukrainian armed forces' militants, numbering up to two companies (one tank and one motorized rifle), advanced from Pervomayskoye into the Peski area. But they faced a fierce counterattack by "Somali" battalion fighters and the 11th regiment of the DPR. An attempt by the Ukrainian armed forces to counterattack in the Donetsk sector was suppressed. The enemy fled, leaving two tanks, two infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs) and numerous bodies of dead soldiers on the battlefield.

At least four civilians were killed in Donetsk city centre on September 17 alone, as a result of shelling from French CESAR self-propelled guns.
This weapon is accurate enough, so the gunners knew exactly where they were striking, no mistake: they were striking at the centre of the city, where there is no military equipment at all. The goal was to kill as many civilians as possible.
Such actions can only be qualified as an act of terrorism, directly involving the French leadership and President Macron personally.
The French political leadership is directly involved in the killing of the residents of Donetsk, as it was France that provided the long-range howitzers and ammunition for them to Zelensky's troops.

The Russian State Duma unanimously voted to approve the amendments to the Russian Criminal Code.
The amendments introduce the concepts of "mobilisation" and "wartime" into the Russian Criminal Code, as well as penalties for looting and surrender. They don't amount to announcing mobilisation or wartime!
According to RIA Novosti sources, the Federation Council may consider the law on 21 September.
Then the president's signature and that's it.

"The expansion of NATO to the east was absolutely the right decision," former US President Bill Clinton said in his interview to CNN.
The former US president also said that he was even more confident today in the rightness of NATO enlargement than when he was in the office. He said that Ukraine's struggle to repel aggression was inspiring, but it was the Alliance that made the greatest contribution to training and supply of weapons.
That is to say, screwing Russia was in the plans from the start, as was the conflict in Ukraine.
