North Korea was estimated to have sent 11,000 troops to help fight in Kursk. A lot of them aren’t going back to the workers paradise.

Good riddance.

x North Korea has reportedly lost over 6,000 soldiers in Russia’s Kursk region, according to British intelligence. Another chilling reminder of how far Putin’s war has spiraled — dragging in foreign troops to die on Ukrainian land.

Finally got it.

x Ukrainian soldiers shot down an enemy fiber-optic FPV drone at the last moment as it was flying directly toward their pickup truck.

Chemical munitions blow up nicely too.

x 💥 K-2 shows the destruction of an enemy BM-21 Grad with chemical weapons. ☢️ In communication with each other, the Russians called to hide and put on gas masks, because Grad was “charged with chemicals”.

Russia continues to waste infantry in suicidal assaults south of Pokrovsk in a drive to reach the border of the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.

Who needs four tires anyway.

Another 1,200 Russians.

Well, the big “irritant’ is Russia’s campaign to erase Ukraine.

x The US has canceled a meeting with Russia on eliminating "irritants" in bilateral relations, Russian foreign ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said. "We hope that the pause they have taken will not be too long,"she said.

Hitting hyper-belligerent Russian state TV would be quite satisfying.

Russia has no shame whatsoever.

x Russia offered to exchange stolen Ukrainian children for Russian soldiers who surrendered.

Putin and Peskov's daughters live in Paris, France.

How about the French hand them over to Ukraine so they can be exchanged for tens of thousands of kidnapped Ukrainian children instead?

And they clearly aren't serious about negotiations.

x 🤡 Russia demands that Ukraine destroy Western weapons to end the war, — the deputy of head of the Russian Ministry of Defense Grushko — MAKS 25 👀🇺🇦 (@maks23.bsky.social) June 16, 2025 at 5:31 AM

Were there no washing machines available?

x "Thank you for your son!" Here's a microwave for you! In Russian-occupied Skadovsk, Kherson region, Aleksandr Dudka, the head of the occupation "administration", presented a microwave oven to the father of a killer "special military operation hero" in honor of Russia Day.

Fly the friendly skies of Russia.

There are reports on Russian Telegram channels that in just the past week, at least seven Russian aircraft have either experienced in-flight malfunctions or were unable to depart due to technical issues.

x Russian Telegram channels report that a Russian Superjet-100 aircraft operated by Azimuth Airlines lost the right engine’s cowling during takeoff from Vnukovo Airport. The flight, which was en route to Batumi, made an emergency return to the departure airport — a "blue" alert code was declared.

Russia even fucks up an exchange of the dead.

x Russia mixed their dead with ours🤯 During the latest exchange of fallen soldiers' remains, Russia didn't just hand over the bodies of Ukrainian soldiers. They also included the remains of their own soldiers, all mixed together in one batch. Minister of Internal Affairs, Ihor Klymenko, reported — Kate from Kharkiv (@kateinkharkiv.bsky.social) June 16, 2025 at 8:39 AM

Remembering all those Ukrainian soldiers who never had a chance to become fathers.

x On this Father's Day -- eternal memory to all fallen fathers, and to all the men whose chance to become fathers was stolen -- who made the ultimate sacrifice defending an entire generation of Ukrainian children from russian genocide. 💔🇺🇦
