Russia is losing it over this common sense statement

So you might have heard the news that Ukraine has declared the Russian skies closed to commercial aircraft. With Zelensky saying “There are no more safe moments in the sky over Russia” Now Putin didn’t handle this well, at all. I mean right away they referred to this as Ukraine threatening to kill civilians and a clear cut example of state terrorism backed by the west.

But here’s the thing, that’s not at all what happened.

Iran’s biggest commercial ports at Shahid Rajaee and Bandar Abbas are sitting nearly empty. Check out https://www.maxcoinoffer.com from Lear capital. Iran President Pezeshkian admits foreign trade is down about 35 percent under U.S. sanctions and the naval blockade, with CENTCOM reporting 82 ships turned and Iranian crude exports at zero. Three days after CIA Director John Ratcliffe’s unannounced stop in Moscow, Russia fired a mobile nuclear-capable ICBM on a training profile from Plesetsk to Kura — more than 6,700 kilometers, training warheads, not a live detonation. The U.S. Navy also put the AIM-424 Malice on tape, a next-generation air-to-air missile with more than 250 nautical miles of reach already flown four-up on an F/A-18E Super Hornet and carried internally on an F-35C.

Thank You for Standing With Ukraine

The Kremlin has now publicly responded after the CIA director’s trip to Moscow—and Dmitry Peskov’s message was unmistakable: Russia says its offensive continues, negotiations over Ukraine are “deeply on pause,” and Moscow claims the battlefield remains in its favor.

We examine Peskov’s statements, Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski’s warning that NATO should accelerate its defense preparations, and Alexander Lukashenko’s striking comments about a “common problem” in southern Belarus and southwestern Russia ahead of his meeting with Vladimir Putin.

Ukraine is also continuing its long-range campaign against Russian military and energy infrastructure. Satellite imagery discussed in the video shows damage to a Tu-95 bomber at Engels-2 airbase, while strikes on Russian oil infrastructure continue. At the same time, Russia is heavily targeting Ukrainian commercial and logistics infrastructure, including Nova Poshta sorting centers and Epicentr locations.

We also break down Kyrylo Budanov’s latest assessment of the war and new Ukrainian information about Russia’s Geran-4 and Geran-5 jet-powered drones—including reported production approaching 3,000 drones per month and a confirmed flight of roughly 960 kilometers from Crimea toward northwestern Ukraine.
