🔥 In Russia, there are arson attacks and explosions in ATMs, post offices and government service centers.
❗️Mediazona calculated that from December 13 to 22, Russians committed 34 such incidents (and several more have occurred since then).
Reports indicate that the AZAL Embraer passenger plane that crashed in Kazakhstan may have been struck by Russian air defense systems. Investigators have allegedly identified traces of air defense system damage on parts of the fuselage.
The plane reportedly flew through Grozny’s airspace, where it was potentially mistaken for a drone during Russian attempts to intercept Ukrainian UAVs.
Subhonkul Rakhimov, one of the surviving passengers, recounted hearing an explosion:
“While trying to land the plane in Grozny, something exploded. There was an explosion—not inside the plane. Where I was sitting, the skin of the plane flew off.”
Azerbaijan Airlines has suspended flights to Grozny and Makhachkala pending an investigation into the crash. Speculation online suggests the plane could have been unintentionally targeted by a Russian missile.

President Joe Biden condemned the attack as “outrageous,” stating that its goal was to deprive Ukrainians of heat and electricity during the winter.
“In recent months, the United States has provided Ukraine with hundreds of air defense missiles, with even more on the way. I’ve directed the Department of Defense to significantly ramp up weapon deliveries to Ukraine,” Biden said.
