The Antonov plant, located in the Svyatoshinsky district of Kiev, has been actively reorienting itself since 2023 to the production of attack drones, such as the An-196 Lyuty, used to attack Russian targets.

The tough decision was made by the Russians to put an end to the famous plant’s existence.

The grand architects of the “coalition of the cocaine sniffing faggots” realizing the futility of their involvement, have quietly abandoned the Ukraine and returned to their petty squabbles:

It appears that Starmer has too many domestic problems to worry about like…

The disgruntled 21 year old toy boy that firebombed his property out of spite, the never-ending migrant woes taking their toll in council elections, two tons of anchovies under risk of being pinched by the French, and the unpredictable US president that hates and wants to tax British snobs!

Well good luck with all that mate…

A look back in history...

When the Russian military finally left Afghanistan in April 1988 they left behind one Russian soldier who was to spend the next 37 years living in Afghanistan, marrying a local woman and having six kids, as they settled in the Mujahedeen Mountains!

This is the fascinating story of Sergey Krasnoperov who finally returned home to Russia on Thursday, May 22 in 2025 in search of his past.

Zelensky, and his incompetent generals have probably never heard of the popular idiom…

“A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush!”

In the past few months and after the Kursk debacle has ended, there’s been a surge of constant Ukrainian suicidal infiltrations of Russian territories (Belgorod, Kursk, and Bryansk) this time by very small, lightly armed groups that can only have one possible thing in mind… to kidnap civilians to be used in future POW swaps!

We know that because there’s nothing of strategic value in these areas close to the border. If you keep going through the marshes and forests you’ll eventually come across settlements and villages of low income people predominantly preoccupied with agriculture and basic farming.

There are no Russian military installations to take out… there’s really nothing interesting there other than peasants toiling the land for their daily bread.

I’ve come across a few dozen reports of such infiltration attempts lately and most of the times the result is the same… Ukrainian soldiers are losing their lives in the hope of capturing some civilians which can be hopefully used three months down the line to exchange with Ukrainian POWs!

It makes zero sense to me… why risk losing able-bodied Ukrainian soldiers for a future swap with POWs that have been incarcerated for so long that they have probably forgotten how to fight, have by now lost the will to fight, and will probably require psychological support to readjust to society?

Are some of those incarcerated in Russian POW camps so precious to Zelensky that they are worth such sacrifices?

Are there any NATO trainers and/or other formerly “embedded” valuable staff of the West languishing in Russian prisons that the West is desperate to liberate with such suicidal missions at no cost to the West?

It wouldn’t be the first time the Ukraine was coaxed into disastrous missions… ones that you would never send your own men into, but only if you saw such men as expendable!

What the hell is going on… or is it a case of a daft and incompetent dictatorial regime unfamiliar with the well known idiom?
