The hackers have caused huge government resources to be diverted, withdrawal of a wide range of Russian government services at times, caused delays, sent trains all over the place, knocked out communications systems and severely slowed down Russian internet services at times and that affects all systems, not just www. Russia media has to operate in a closed loop now and dare not broadcasts live images, everything is on a 15 min delay. You think because Russia bury and covers everything up that nothing is happening. PS look up how many Russian satellites have de-orbited in the last year when they were previously not scheduled for termination?

Petrovsky

Remember the name. This is the next big flash point. The Russian self-declared Neo-Nazis group is about to down tools on the battlefield. If it is shown Petrovsky's arrest in Finland was thanks to Russian influence as Putin tries to eliminate the private armies and avoid a second Wagner style coup attempt, all he will do is accelerate it. Bulldozing the Wagner graves was an act of madness and now he's turned the Russian Nazis on himself.

Ironic that. Putin says he went to crush a [non existence] Ukraine nazis movement and it may well be a Russian nazis movement that finally crushes him

It's all falling apart nicely.

The BBC are being fed the propaganda line and amplifying as loud as they can. As the all out defeat of Russia gets closer, it was always expected the Russians would step up the propaganda war intensely and chief item will be to demoralise Ukraine and alias that everything is hopeless and just give in. This bs propaganda will get stronger and stronger as Russia gets more and more panicked as the all out defeat creeps ever closer.

One thing is for certain. If any of this were true then Ukraine's allies would have backed off a long time ago. Instead they are expanding the supply of defence equipment, training the pilots on F16s and making absolute declarations to supply F16s and much more support.

Watch the Russian propaganda increase in desperation, watch multiple attempts at fake ceasefires, fake 'humanitarian' pleas and some truly bizarre fake flag attempts to fool the likes of China that it is actually Russia being wronged. Did you see the dead response Putin got at the BRICS summit. He played the same crap of the aggrieved wounded party and got nothing, absolutely nothing. He is a significant embarrassment to BRICS and many delegates were rather glad he wasn't there. They want Russia to end it and withdraw because they all ask themselves the same question, if somebody invaded their country for a territorial grab what would they do? Exactly what Ukraine is doing is the answer.

Certainly the on going war means on going recruitment. There's a clucking war on, what else did you expect? Your so desperately clinging to any straw you can find. The Russian defences are being breached. The push is south through Russian lines.

It's over you muppet. Russia has lost. Russia has been humiliated. Soon the revenge and complete breakdown of society in a horrible bloody war will descend on Russia. You backed the wrong horse.

Can you actually read English? There is nothing in the article remotely close to your summary. Its a biog peice on an admiral and the only context for a routine and as stated regular meeting between Ukraine and some western military is that it is an admiral advising generals, which is the only angle the rather wordy biog could find.

You really need to get some reading glasses.

And muppets on here think they are going to get billions for the Russian assets. Muppets.

Lot of news coming in, Crimea and Russian Black Sea fleet was hit hard, the Russian's saying they took out all 40 drones turns out to be a lie as lots of video postings showing significant plumes over targets. Multiple breaches in the 1st line of defences being widened and key towns now in sight. Nothing yet of the main battle groups being moved forward but Crimea getting a lot of special opps attention and more promised.

Still chip, chip, chip but the mines and defence line was only ever going to slow an advance, not stop it. Now Putin and the Kremlin have a few thousand rouge Wagners roaming round Russia and regrouping outside Moscow and with the bulldozing of the graves, significant resources being clustered around Putin and Kremlin. One small problem, inside the protection detail there will be Wagner supporters who will open fire from within.

Absolute tinder box coming together. Get out of Russia if you can.

"MOSCOW, Aug 25 (Reuters) - Some foreign companies trying to exit Russia are facing a big jump in costs as Moscow is demanding bigger discounts on the price tags of assets they want to sell, three people with knowledge of the matter said."

Anybody who is saying POLY is going to get a good price on selling out Russian assets (exiting Russia) is in cloud cuckoo land. It was always going to be a cheap sell off as many dirty fingers will be in the pie and the Russian state itself will take as much as it wants.

You've all been had. Time to accept the reality.

You couldn't make this up. It must be viral on Wagner phones now. The blood will be boiling.

Will Putin make it to September? Increasingly unlikely now.

If there any Wagnerites unsure whether to respond to the call to regroup, this should make the case. Russia desecrating the Wagner graves. Putin is on a death wish. He seems to believe he is immortal now. Putin is toast.

Question is, how long before he is taken out? Well I would have given it a couple of weeks to a month or so but once this news goes viral amongst Wagner, it could be days, even hours away. Putin and the Kremlin clearly haven't got a clue what they are doing. Kicking the hornets nest repeatedly.

"Russia is known to treat captured soldiers well. "

I get the distinct feeling they are now holding a gun at your head as you type.

After the breaches in the mine fields get wider and deeper, all he has left is nukes. And he is intent on using one. Questions why go to the trouble of blowing Prig out of the sky? Credible intelligence note seen, it is a scare tactic to Zelensky who is now a frequent flyer to various countries on private jets. It is a message of how Putin can get him any time.

Again, you clearly do not watch any western media. You have a presumption western tv is just like the Russian propaganda machine. Well anti-brexit, anti-trump, pro immigration, pro climate change. Its WORSE in the west and you clearly don't understand the slightest thing about the real world.

You obviously don't watch any western media then!!!!!!

Human rights are more than acceptable terms to place on loan conditions.

As for loans from the new world order, repayment will be at he point of a gun with massive interest and surrendering any political control and democracy. Major oppression will have to be introduced to countries like India and democracy eliminated. It won't be too long before many of these new world orders are at the UN pleading for intervention and being told to take a jump. Those that decide to reject the rules based order deserve all they get. The west isn't going to sort out the inevitable mess this time either. Let 'em rot in their beds.

One thing coming over the diplomatic wire, If Prig wasn't on the downed plane, it makes no difference to the Wagner retaliation. Russia fired on the civilian plane over its own territory with the express intention of killing a name on the manifest. Any truce Wagner was observing with the Kremlin will have ended immediately whether Prigie was onboard or not.

Big wow, let the BRICS take on the worlds poor, long over due! We'll now stop funding the likes of India and start spending on ourselves. The sooner the members of BRICS start paying their own bills the better.

And there's going to be a lot more of this with SAS and SBS trained Ukrainian soldiers being deployed. The Ukrainian flag raised IN CRIMEA. Russian's won't know which direction to run by the end of September.

"Who is the "they" in this sentence the pilots or the airhostess etc ? "

errrr.... the aircraft was owned by prigozhin, anybody boarding, staff or otherwise, knew exactly who they were with and being so close to him physically will certainly been vetted and even signed contracts with him personally.

Like I said, the manner in which Pig and his entourage moved about, flying over Russian turf like that for example, shows how much he believed he held such a strong hand, the Kremlin would not dare. Did he miscalculate? No, he didn't. There are a number of private armies all over Russia and they are utterly loyal to their group and leader. Virtually cult followings. The standing order will have been clear, if Putin attacks then the Kremlin deal was worthless and so the original assault on the capital should go ahead no matter how disenfranchised the Wagner group is. Putin has made the grave error here, he things he has disbanded Wagner and broken the cult following in just a couple of months. Wagner will be orientated to specific target and will act independently in small units if communication is disrupted. Give it a few days for some logistics and then watch.

Putin is now the dead man walking. His execution in retaliation is guaranteed - although I think it more likely he will die caught in a fire fight between his own guards. Ukraine intelligence will currently be receiving large amounts of very sensitive targeting information from members of Wagner right now as they try to use Ukraine to carry out attacks on Russian high command and leaders. The tables turn very quickly in war sometimes.

"A couple of other details are also worth noting. On the same day Prigozhin apparently died, his close ally Surovikin was relieved of his duties as chief of the Russian Air Force. And as news of the plane crash spread, Putin was busy presenting the Hero of Russia award to soldiers live on television. Russian journalists were quick to note that in June 2022, Putin gave the same award to Prigozhin. So the optics of Prigozhin’s elimination appear to have also been carefully choreographed. "

Rats in a sack.
