🧵 17 years ago #Ukraine destroyed its last Tu-22M heavy bomber & 423 Kh-22 cruise missiles in accordance with its voluntary disarmament, to make a clean break from its Soviet past under #Kremlin's control, in great hopes of being accepted into a free Europe. Tragically betrayed.

#Russia: Reports that #Kremlin has banned the mention of #Prigozhin and #WagnerPMC on all Russian propaganda TV channels.

🚨 Russian media full of rumors #Apple and #Google (Android) will soon "brick" all devices inside #Russia. Likely info space preparation for probable #MartialLaw, rumored to start on Jan 9 with closure of RU borders. #Kremlin wants subjects to blame the "West" for their dystopia.

🚨👀 #Kremlin is preemptively accusing #Ukraine for possible assassination of #Prigozhin. Looks like Putin wants to keep his options open to remove him. This playbook already used by #FSB during the war to prepare domestic information space before they proceed with assassination.

SBU (Security Service of #Ukraine), National Police, & National Guard raided the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra Monastery. Appears there are some #Kremlin agents & spies working in the heart of #Kyiv. That #Russia would infiltrate a religious institution is no surprise.

78 years ago, on May 18, 1944, stalin's regime started genocide of #CrimeanTatar people. Following forced deportation from #Crimea every other Crimean Tatar died. As back then today #Kremlin spares no effort to eliminate my people. It failed before, it will fail now again.

TikTok #Kadyrov keeps pumping out promo reels. This force is probably a lot more likely to be used to try to take over the #Kremlin & attempt to depose Putin than be sent to #Ukraine. Both Kadyrov and Prigozhin are saving their real forces for that potential.

The #Kremlin is using food as a silent weapon of war. We must vigorously counter Russia’s propaganda about food and fertilizer prices. Russia’s dangerous “Hunger Games” is solely responsible for the global food crisis. #G7 @G7

Fascist #Kremlin propagandist #Simonyan's motivational monologue for the mobilized. Rumors are that well over 120,000 Russians are KIA, MIA, WIA in #Ukraine - in 9 months. To paraphrase - "You must die for your Motherland in silence & be thankful!"

#Russia: On February 24th, the anniversary of Putin's fascist invasion of #Ukraine, 'Swan Lake' will be performed at the #Kremlin Palace. For some reason I immediately thought of a false-flag terror attack by Putin to rally the country. The theatre has 6,000 seats.

#Russia on 🔥: Moscow Coke & Gas Plant on fire after an explosion in Vidnoye, about 15 miles south from the #Kremlin.
