    So does that all mean Ukraine is winning?

    Jesus Christ and USA thank you for putting Russian economy into the toilet -

    stronger currency, robust economic growth and friends everywhere. This is exactly how economy in toilet looks like

    Ukrainian Nazi democracy saved. No elections, no political parties and can't exit country. True democracy

    Stronger Currency. LOL

    Robust Economic Growth. LOL


    The Russian economy is in bad shape, no matter what the Kremlin says: Russian economist

    Russia's "Friends Everywhere". LOL. The only military alliance that Russia has is the CSTO which only has six members. Many of the members currently refuse to meet with Putin and Russia.

    In the meantime, Russia's search for foreign recruits from these central Asia countries, Syria, Cuba, etc. ("its friends") is not going well. Men from CSTO-member Kazakhstan who join Wagner or the Russian military are sent to jail if they return home.

    Media: SBU set off explosion in railway tunnel in Russia's Far East

    An explosion on a key railway line in Russia's far eastern republic of Buryatia was the result of an operation of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), Ukrainska Pravda reported on Nov. 30, citing an unnamed source in the security service.

    The explosion reportedly occurred on the night of Nov. 29-30 in the Severomuysky Tunnel, nearly 5,000 kilometers from Ukraine.

    "Four explosive devices went off during the movement of the freight train," the source told Ukrainska Pravda.

    "Now the FSB is working on the spot, and railway workers are unsuccessfully trying to minimize the consequences of the SBU's special operation," the source said.

    The SBU has not officially claimed responsibility for the explosion.

    The tunnel is part of the Baikal-Amur Mainline, a key railway route that runs north of the Trans-Siberian railway and is part of a network of tracks connecting Russia with China.

    At 15 kilometers long, the Severomuysky Tunnel is the longest railway tunnel in Russia. Construction took 27 years, and it was opened in 2003.

    While the SBU has not officially commented on the reports, Ukraine's military intelligence agency (HUR) announced on Nov. 30 that it had conducted a joint operation with local resistance to sabotage railway infrastructure in Moscow Oblast.

    In a video the HUR posted to social media, a person in a snowy environment appears to set fire to two railway relay boxes, which control signals for train operators. The person appears to be acting alone.

    "Disruptions in the work of the railway are becoming more frequent" in Russia, the HUR captioned the video.

    "Fire, chaos, and paralysis on the Russian railway is another consequence of the Russian criminal war against Ukraine," the HUR said.

    The Kyiv Independent has not independently confirmed the reports.

  5. Putin bringing all these workers/"residents" from Crapistan countries to saturate the occupied/invaded territories.

    Not sure how that will work out in the long term.

    Some of the central Asians may not like being shelled and the missile attacks as the Ukrainians move forward. Most of them (as with the Syrians earlier- remember that failed disaster?) just want to earn enough to send some money back home so that mom can buy a loaf of bread.

    Also, Putin's trick in the past has been to bring new "residents" in and then "reward" them by giving them citizenship. Then he mobilizes them to the front. Never popular.

    In addition, you have to think that some of the ethnic Russians in the occupied areas were thinking "I thought the whole idea was to preserve Russian culture. So how come we have hundreds of thousands of other ethnic groups from the crapistan countries flooding the region." Some guy from crapistan who looks like a Mongol goat-herder is already banging their daughter. Maybe the wife and sister and his goat too.

  7. Russian TV hacked to broadcast Zelensky’s speech vowing to liberate Crimea

    :rolleyes:

    Pro-Ukrainian saboteurs hacked into Russian television channels in Crimea overnight to air President Volodymyr Zelensky’s speech vowing to liberate the occupied peninsula.

    In a further humiliation to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s regime, the pranksters renamed all 20 channels in Crimea’s IPTV network “Putin is a d—head,” as seen in videos shared online.

    Thought to myself ,,Is it me or all of a sudden this channel became pro-axis" meaning (subscribed(until now)) that recently it started to suggest me videos that sounds like hidden propaganda against the west.
    Thought, lets check who owns it ? (For e.g Forbes by China)

    The Barclay brothers Sir David and Sir Frederick bought the Telegraph and Spectator titles from Conrad Black in 2004 for £665m – around £1.1bn

    June 2023, the group was put up for sale

    The title was taken over by Lloyds Bank as it sought to recover £1.1bn owed by the owners, the Barclay family. An Abu Dhabi-backed firm this month agreed to pay the sum and take control.
