I kept telling for months and years that Russia organized terrorist attacks in Europe to influence opinion before elections, and guess what? Before each terrorist attack in Germany this year, there were Google search requests on the attack in each city, sent from Russia.

In 2024, four women held four-star ranks in the military — the highest levels of the armed forces. Only 10 women have held the highest rank in their military branches in history. Now, there are none.
Of the four women, two of them retired and two were ousted. bit.ly/4i1EWUO

The ‘encirclement’ narrative was pure Russian propaganda
There is not a single area where Ukrainian soldiers are even remotely in danger of being encircled.
Instead, there is one combat area where an encirclement is happening and this in Toretsk, where Russian forces are about to be cut off in the West of the town, if they didn't have left already.
