‼️After hitting a clearly marked UN convoy recently, Russia again hit a clearly marked Ambulance in Kherson, with, an FPV drone, deliberately attacking civilians.

The press scrum around Candace Owens says a lot about the world we live in. Four years ago, I was facing a Russian death sentence after the destruction of Mariupol. Today, people who have never lived through the war are helping rehabilitate those responsible for it.

AIR DEFENCE FIRE FIGHT & DIRECT HIT | Dnipro Under Ballistic Missile & Drone Attack - Live youtube.com/shorts/HBdg3...

Catch my latest interview with Meidas Media, where I break down why the real pressure on Putin is coming from the south. substack.com/@pinnerpatte...

It’s been an active day here in Dnipro. Russia has reportedly struck another so-called “military target” — this time a postal service warehouse. By Lavrov’s logic, I suppose that qualifies as one of Ukraine’s “decision-making centres.” 💩

My latest for LLB 🇺🇦 Trump’s administration pursues a business-as-usual approach with Moscow, despite Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine & the extensive allegations of war crimes under investigation, offers a clear indication of the direction the White House continues to move.

🔥 Reports indicate the Russian guided-missile corvette Boyky has been damaged in Kronstadt, near Putin’s hometown of St. Petersburg. If confirmed, Ukraine has struck a warship tasked with protecting Russia’s Baltic approaches hundreds of kilometres from the front.

Smoke rose over Putin’s hometown of St Petersburg as Ukrainian drones struck targets around the city during Russia’s flagship economic forum, SPIEF. Among the attendees was Rodney Mims Cook Jr., a senior Trump appointee, the first U.S. official to attend since before Russia’s full-scale invasion.

I want to take this moment to thank X for effectively suppressing my account and making it feel almost pointless to post at times. Ironically, that may have been the best thing that happened.

🔥 This is what St. Petersburg looks like just two hours before the opening of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) and Vladimir Putin's keynote speech. Bahaahaahaaa!

Putin wants the world talking about NATO, nuclear threats and escalation. As Russia launches massive attacks against Ukrainian cities, growing pressure on the southern land corridor threatens one of the Kremlin’s most important achievements of the war. CRIMEA My latest analysis from Ukraine 🇺🇦👇

This is my home city. The victims were not soldiers. They were ordinary people, Civilians, Families & Children. This is what Russia does, it targets cities, homes, and the people who live in them. Call it what it is: terrorism by any other name. 🇺🇦

“We fell into an ambush. It’s burning behind us, it’s burning in front of us, and they’re still flying.” Ukrainian long-range drones are turning Russia’s so-called land corridor to occupied Crimea into a kill zone.

Putin launched another wave of terrorist attacks across Ukraine overnight, with Kyiv bearing the brunt of the assault. Terrorizing civilians won’t solve Russia’s strategic problems. 🇺🇦 My piece for LLB londonlovesbusiness.com/ukraine-hit-...

“I was actually a guest on x.com/UkrainianWri... Space discussing the growing pressure on Crimea and Russia’s increasingly vulnerable southern land corridor, when the air raid alarm sounded.

Let’s talk about Crimea. Because Putin wants you talking about everything else. NATO. Nuclear threats. Belarus. Escalation. Red lines. Anything except the one issue that could become the greatest strategic failure of his entire reign.

It’s been a long night, 5 people were killed, 25 were injured. The number of victims is increasing due to the Russian attack on Dnipro, - OVA 23 people were hospitalized. Among them is a 13-year-old girl.

My latest for LLB. Crimea is not just territory; it’s the cornerstone of everything he has built politically and strategically over the last two decades. Lose Crimea, and Putin may lose far more than the peninsula itself. 🇺🇦 londonlovesbusiness.com/the-battle-f...

Putin wants the world talking about NATO, nuclear threats and escalation. The real story is Crimea. My latest analysis from Ukraine. 🇺🇦 open.substack.com/pub/shaunpin...

Another costly day for Russia. At roughly the equivalent of two battalions’ worth of personnel losses per day, the Kremlin continues to throw lives away in a war that never needed to happen in the first place.

Apparently the link was faulty, try this. youtube.com/shorts/7IrdJ...

A film called The Day After Tomorrow feels deeply disturbing. Like a kidnapper making a documentary to explain why the victim should be grateful. Giving Ukraine’s stolen children back to their families would be a far better act of “healing” than any propaganda film. khpg.org/en/1608815796

Why is Crimea so important to Putin’s war? Crimea is only as valuable as Russia’s ability to supply it. Ukraine is steadily increasing pressure on the southern land corridor connecting Russia to occupied Crimea. 🎥 Watch the short 👇 youtube.com/shorts/7IrdJ...

Beautiful Spring in Dnipro 🇺🇦

🔥 Saratov refinery — 580 km from Ukraine 🔥 Matveyev Kurgan oil depot, Rostov region — 150 km from the front 🔥 Lazarevo pipeline station, Kirov region — 1,100 km from the border Russia claims to have shot down 216 drones, yet, fires continue to break out deep inside the country. 🇺🇦

Explosion in Dnipro 💥 Plume of black smoke rising from the city. There are casualties.

If you haven’t read my latest piece on just how important the current developments are, not only for the war itself, but for the very rationale behind Russia’s invasion—then give it a read.

It’s a bad day to be a serf of a fascist imperialist regime, governed by a bunker-dwelling midget dictator still chasing the fantasy of restoring the Soviet Empire.

CRIMEA UNDER PRESSURE | Is Putin's Southern Corridor Failing? Now on YouTube youtu.be/_H1LIwsGlKM?si…l Crimea is central to Putin’s war strategy. We examine the Kerch Bridge, Russian logistics, and whether sustained Ukrainian pressure could weaken Moscow’s position—or even threaten Putin’s future.

It’s Sunday. I’m alive, the coffee’s on, and I intend to spend the day helping make life a little more difficult for the Kremlin. 🇺🇦 Enjoy yours 🙏

Not just a war decider, but potentially a Putin decider. Ukraine appears to be gaining fire control over key parts of the southern land corridor to occupied Crimea, one of the Kremlin’s most important strategic gains since 2022. My Piece for LLB londonlovesbusiness.com/putins-forev...

🔥Unmanned Systems Forces of Ukraine destroyed an Iskander tactical missile system and two Tu-142 long-range anti-submarine aircraft at a military airfield in Taganrog, Russia, on the night of May 30.

The battle on the Dnipropetrovsk border is intensifying. Russian forces are pushing around Zeleny Hai, Novokhatske, Tolstoi and Piddubne, using small assault groups, drones and artillery to expand the grey zone and pressure Ukrainian defences.

❗️ Sections of the route between the temporarily occupied cities of Berdyansk, Melitopol, and Dzhankoy are under the fire control of Ukrainian drones - GUR of the Ministry of Defense.

Crimea was Putin's greatest triumph. Now it may be his greatest vulnerability. As Ukraine squeezes Russia's southern lifeline, the Kremlin is increasingly exporting the war beyond Ukraine's borders. open.substack.com/pub/shaunpin...

Russia is not just threatening diplomats and sending drones into Romania. It has now struck a Turkish-linked commercial vessel. A Russian drone attacked the ANT bulk carrier as it departed a port in the Odesa region bound for Turkey. Two crew members were injured and a fire broke out on board.

While Russia continues to invade Ukraine, occupy its land, and calling its own attacks “retaliation”, it’s losing the equivalent of roughly two battalions a day in personnel for a war, it refuses to stop. Quite possibly the world’s worst aggressive victim.

As a result of the explosion in Romania, two people were injured. The victims are receiving medical assistance on site.

A Russian Shahed drone has struck an apartment building in the Romanian city of Galați, injuring two people. This is not Ukraine, but it is NATO territory. Russia’s war and its consequences are increasingly spilling across borders, putting civilians far beyond Ukraine at risk. #Romania #Ukraine

Putin couldn’t even pronounce the name of Kazakhstan’s President, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, calling him “Semsjan Kamelievich.” And it only adds fuel to the growing speculation that he’s losing his faculties. At this point, these public appearances are becoming not painful to watch. I’m loving it.

Fuel shortages are now being reported across occupied Ukraine and parts of Russia itself, including Sevastopol, Yalta, Melitopol, Donetsk, Tver and Ryazan. This is the result of systematic Ukrainian strikes on Russian refineries, oil depots and military logistics.

The EU and America will not leave Kyiv. There will be no change to our operations and any reports otherwise “are false” 🇺🇸🇪🇺🫡

We will “kill in the name of peace”, the victims of a war they started. open.substack.com/pub/shaunpin...

🇬🇧 Head of the British intelligence service GCHQ, Anne Keast-Butler: The Russian army lost almost 500,000 soldiers in the war against Ukraine.

Vladimir Putin’s popularity is fading, so he’s doubling down on the ordinary Russian. What’s certain is this: he won’t see the end of what he started, but he will see the failure of every original aim he launched this war for. My piece for LLB londonlovesbusiness.com/russia-trapp...
