What not to do with an unexploded FPV drone: hit it, hard, with a stick...
Except if you are a Russian soldier. This video is an excellent training video for Russian soldiers.

🟣 This is the "Journalist" who held Noa Argamani in his home. He, his wife and his father were among the "civilians" that were killed.
I am not an expert on int'l law but IMHO anyone who holds hostages kidnapped in a terrorist raid is a valid target

Somewhere In Eastern Ukraine, A Russian BTR-82 Vehicle Played A Deadly Game Of Chicken With A Ukrainian M-2. The BTR Lost, Badly.
A deadly game of vehicular chicken on the front line in eastern Ukraine ended in death and destruction on or just before Saturday—but only for the losing side.
When a Russian army BTR-82 wheeled armored personnel carrier carrying a squad of infantry on its roof managed to cross the no-man’s-land between Russian and Ukrainian lines and speed into a Ukrainian-held settlement, west or southwest of the ruins of Avdiivka, an M-2 Bradley tracked infantry fighting vehicle from the Ukrainian army’s 47th Mechanized Brigade raced out to meet it.
As a Ukrainian drone observed from overhead, the two vehicles sped toward each other along the same paved road, the BTR-82 firing its 30-millimeter autocannon and the M-2 firing its own 25-millimeter autocannon.
At the last second, the BTR swerved right to avoid a collision. The two vehicles passed within feet of each other, each blazing away with its gun. “Not something you ever thought you’d see in real life,” the Estonian analyst with the handle “War Translated” commented.
*There were clear winners and losers in this deadly game: the M-2 and its three-person crew seemingly escaped unharmed. The BTR-82 rolled away damaged and smoking, dead and injured infantry spilling from its hull.*
Republicans were upset Biden attacked his political opponent. Biden made no mention of Trump but did attack Putin. Say, remember when all those Republican politicians spent 4th of July in Moscow?
Opinion: NATO states should send non-combat troops to Ukraine
“As French President Emmanuel Macron said in a May 2024 speech in Dresden, ‘Russia will be here tomorrow, (or) the day after tomorrow.’ The implication was that it is easier to fight Russian forces on Ukrainian soil, with Ukraine’s army bearing the brunt of the fighting, than it would be to confront Putin’s military on NATO territory,” write former International Rescue Committee policy advisor Anna Husarska and humanitarian activist Mykola Viknianskiy in their latest op-ed.
⚡️ Media: Hungary obstructs decision on Ukraine accession talks among EU members.
Hungary is preventing consensus among EU members on the start of Ukraine's accession talks, Interfax Ukraine reported on June 7, citing undisclosed diplomatic sources.
The news came after the European Commission supported the start of accession talks with Ukraine on the same day, according to Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal.
Spewing Russian propaganda of course.

I hope he makes it to the Kobzon concert
✔️ Attempt on a traitor - Kupyan mayor-collaborator Hennadiy Matsegora is in critical condition
👤 On June 7, 2024, in the city of Old Oskol in russia, an attempt was made on the traitor of Ukraine Hennadiy Matsehora, who held the position of the mayor of Kupyansk, Kharkiv region, from the party of the opposition party.
❗️ Matsegora voluntarily agreed to fully cooperate with the russian invaders.
👉 In particular, in June 2022, he signed the so-called protocol on the creation of the occupying Kharkiv administration and publicly announced it.
❗️ After the liberation, Kup'yansk escaped with the russians to the Belgorod region, where the Moscow masters placed increased security in Matsegora, which, however, did not spare the collaborating mayor.
☑️ Currently, for the second day in a row, Moscow doctors are trying to prevent Matsegory from going to the Kobzon concert. The condition of the traitor of the Ukrainian people is critical.

💥 On June 8, 2024, a Su-57 multi-purpose fighter of the aggressor state was hit on the territory of the Akhtubinsk airfield in the Astrakhan region of the russian Federation, located 589 kilometers from the line of combat.

❗️ Damage to the Su-57 is the first such case in history.
🇺🇦 Glory to Ukraine!

They like to pull small clips that look strange. When you see the whole video it blends in & doesn't look strange. They are trying to make it look strange for their propaganda
💔🥺 5-year-old Svitlana dreamed of dancing a waltz with her father at her kindergarten graduation, but the war prevented that.
"Last year, she saw her friend's graduation, where she danced a beautiful dance with her dad. She really wanted to dance like that."
- says her mother Oksana with tears in her eyes.
😣However, unfortunately, the girl did not wait. Her father, Ihor Radchenko, gave his life in 2023, defending Ukraine. 😭
At Svetlana's graduation, the kindergarten dance was canceled for all children, because most of them have dads at the front. In order to support the true friend of the brigade, Igor's brothers came to the holiday. ❤️

99-year-old British World War II veteran tried to send russian medal back because of russia's invasion of Ukraine
Alec Penstone received the Ushakov Medal, russia's highest naval award, for his service in the Arctic convoy on the aircraft carrier H.M.S. Campania. A total of 19 British veterans received these awards - the ceremony took place on May 9, 2014.
"I would have loved to return [the medal], but they prevented me from doing so. An award for courage signed by Putin. I am disgusted and disappointed," Penstone told The Telegraph.
