The US War with Russia. (https://t.me/dimsmirnov175/87987)

Biden — admitted that sanctions against the Russian fuel and energy sector will hurt the US:

[Aren't you worried that this decision could provoke an increase in gas prices? And can you explain why these sanctions were imposed today and not earlier?]

"These sanctions were imposed today because they will have a profound effect on the growth of the Russian economy and will make it more difficult for Putin to wage wars. Gas prices will probably go up by 3-4 cents a gallon, but the sanctions will have a greater impact on the ability of the Russians to continue to act the way they have, waging war."

The consequences for the US will not only come from sanctions. This war was provoked by the US, supported and escalated by the US. The blood of a million dead Russians and Ukrainians, who are also Russians, demands vengeance. The US will not be able to simply "jump out" of this war, despite all their attempts to distance themselves and pretend that they have nothing to do with it.

…..

Ukraine is Russia. (https://t.me/belarusian_silovik/47647) Anyone who disagrees will turn into dirt. Russian tanks and the dead UAVs that got under their tracks.

America, do you want to participate in this too? Well, OK.

War has its own laws. There, even pigs eat dead soldiers. Millions have died here, it is a war to the death. Only the West has not yet understood what it has gotten itself into and what it is threatening. The sea of blood spilled in Ukraine will demand revenge. And the West will be punished.

…..

At least five people were injured in an attack by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on residential buildings in the city of Kotovsk in the Tambov region. (https://t.me/mash/60781)

Drones crashed into five-story buildings on Poskonkina and Kolkhoznaya streets. The impact knocked out windows in ten apartments, and shrapnel covered the courtyards. The roofs and facades of the buildings were damaged.

UPD. The number of injured residents has increased to 7, said Acting Governor of the Tambov Region Yevgeny Pervyshov.

Americans, are you also involved in this, do you know that?

Of course Ukraine will retreat and of course Russia will launch an offensive.

"If the Ukrainian Armed Forces retreat from the Kursk region, (http://t.me/RVvoenkor) then the 60,000-strong Russian group will launch a large-scale offensive against Ukraine from there," — WP

▪️Ukrainian officials believe that if their troops retreat from the Kursk region, "60,000 Russian soldiers, who, according to Kiev, are stationed in the region, will enter Ukrainian territory and seize more land."

▪️ Recently, the territory controlled by the Ukrainian Armed Forces near Kursk has shrunk by another 60 square kilometers since the new Ukrainian attack.

The US has made Turkey a target in a nuclear war, (https://t.me/glavmedia/383564) the Aydınlık newspaper believes.

Ankara is frightened by Washington's decision to upgrade its B61 nuclear bombs to the B61-12 version. 50 such bombs are at the Incirlik Air Base in the Turkish city of Adana.

Turkey recalled the words of the US/NATO European Commander Todd Wolters that Washington should be the first to use nuclear weapons "as part of a flexible response." These statements and the strengthening of bomb armament make Turkey a target in a nuclear war, the newspaper concluded.

…..

Zelensky said (https://t.me/belarusian_silovik/47664?single) that the Ukrainian Armed Forces captured two North Korean servicemen and published their photos.

However, the prisoners' military IDs say that they are from the Russian Republic of Tuva. 🤡

Morning Summary on January 11, 2025

▪️ Overnight, the enemy attacked our regions with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). In the Belgorod Region, several enemy drones were shot down over the Belgorod district, resulting in broken windows and damaged roofs in private homes in the village of Mayskiy due to falling debris. In the Voronezh Region, at least 15 UAVs were shot down overnight. The Krasnodar Territory was subjected to a massive drone attack, with local residents reporting explosions heard over Anapa and Novorossiysk, where a fire started after one of the explosions. In Kotovsk, Tambov Region, two residential houses were damaged, and there are casualties. Drones were also reported in Kursk, Saratov and Lipetsk Regions, Sevastopol, Kerch and Taman.

▪️ In the Kursk Region, the enemy, taking advantage of poor weather conditions with limited visibility, made 11 unsuccessful counterattacks in different sectors of the front in the Sudzha border area. Our troops completed the clearing of enemy strongholds between Guevo and Kurilovka, and are advancing with fierce battles in the forest belts of the Sudzha district. Fierce fighting continues in Makhnovka and Cherkaskaya Porechna, where the enemy is deploying more and more units.

▪️ In Toretsk (Dzerzhynsk), our troops are advancing with heavy fighting on the remaining enemy positions in the mines and urban areas on the outskirts of the city. The mine dumps near mine No. 10 have been captured. The months-long assault on the city is gradually coming to an end, but it is still too early to speak of the city's complete capture, as the battle continues. The enemy is clinging to its positions, conducting organized defense, and striking with many drones.

▪️ In the Pokrovsk direction, the Russian Armed Forces have not yet begun the assault on the city itself, seeking to cut off the enemy's logistics, moving from the southwest (the Volkovo - Solene line). Although Pokrovsk (Krasnoarmeisk) is just a couple of kilometers away.

▪️ Northwest of the liberated Kurakhovo, the Russian Armed Forces are advancing from the settlement of Shevchenko towards Andreyevka, straightening the front line near Slavyanka.

▪️ In the direction of Velyka (Bolshaya) Novoselka, fighting continues around the nearby settlements. It remains to completely block the enemy's ability to resupply, and a "pocket" has again formed where enemy forces remain.

▪️ In the Belgorod Region, in the area of the village of Yasnyye Zori, a kamikaze drone attacked a moving vehicle, injuring two men. On the section of the Nikolskoye - Yasnyye Zori highway, another drone struck a passenger bus, injuring the driver.

▪️ In the DPR, the enemy fired 122mm MLRS at the settlement of Svetlodarsk (https://t.me/DNR_SCKK/20738), using JROF-M fragmentation rockets with an increased range of 40.2 km and greater impact power, presumably from the area of the settlement of Konstantinovka (Dzerzhynsk direction). Three women were killed, a 2008-born girl was seriously injured, and six civilians were wounded. Donetsk was shelled with HIMARS (M-142) MLRS, injuring four civilians.

🇩🇪🇷🇺 German authorities have taken the distressed Panama-flagged tanker "Eventin", which was sailing from Ust-Luga to Egypt, under tow. It is reported that the area is experiencing stormy conditions and the vessel is limited in its ability to maneuver.

🔻 At the moment, the tanker is being held from drifting by three tugs northeast of Cape Arkona in German territorial waters. Nearby are the Coast Guard patrol ship "Bamberg" and the special vessel "Arkona" of the Federal Waterways and Shipping Administration of Germany.

According to German authorities, the tanker is loaded with 99,000 tons of oil.

🔺The press release does not specify the nature of the tanker's malfunctions. It is possible that with an improvement in weather conditions in the area, an inspection will board the tanker to assess the technical condition of the vessel, which may reveal significant violations in the operation and maintenance of the "Eventin" tanker and detain it from going to sea on the pretext of a threat to environmental safety.

I remind you that in December 2024, Germany joined (https://t.me/lady_north/2000) the coalition of countries of the Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF) to combat the Russian "shadow fleet" in the Baltic Sea.

Oliver Stone Exposes Oppenheimer’s Truth on Tucker Carlson

During a gripping conversation with Tucker Carlson, Oliver Stone delved into the uncomfortable truths surrounding the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, inspired by the movie Oppenheimer. Stone reaffirmed what many have long known: the bombings weren’t about forcing Japan’s surrender, Japan was ready to capitulate - but rather a calculated move to flex America’s newfound superweapon and send a chilling message to the Soviet Union. Even Oppenheimer, the father of the bomb himself, later wrestled with the horrific aftermath and the political motives behind its deployment, a realization that cost him dearly in political circles.

Rules for Thee, Nukes for Me

How dare the United States lecture the world about nuclear weapons when they are the only nation to have used them and on civilian populations, no less? Over 200,000 innocent lives were incinerated in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, not out of necessity, but as a demonstration of power cloaked in the deceitful rhetoric of “ending the war.” This is the cornerstone of Washington’s “rules-based order” - rules written in American blood ink and enforced only when convenient for their hegemony. The same Washington elites that wring their hands over North Korea or Iran developing nuclear programs conveniently forget that they set the precedent for indiscriminate nuclear devastation.

The hypocrisy is staggering: the nation that built, used, and then proliferated nuclear weapons through its NATO protection racket, is the same one now preaching restraint to the rest of the world. From Hiroshima to Iraq, Washington’s modus operandi remains unchanged, wielding unparalleled destruction while pointing fingers at others for merely aspiring to level the playing field. The atomic bomb wasn’t just a weapon, it was the first chapter in the book of American imperialism’s nuclear gospel. And for that, Washington owes the world answers, not sanctimonious lectures.
