The Misha na Donbasse [Misha in Donbas] Telegram channel:

And some unpleasant news from the frontline

Just yesterday, people went to a neighboring unit to get humanitarian aid. The "aid suppliers" tricked them cleverly—they knew the full name of the commander, and those with whom they communicated in chats, and their friends, and those who had already supplied them with humanitarian aid. The Internet leaves traces everywhere. In general, they prepared. They lured them to a specific place and at a specific time for a meeting, several cars arrived, people, naturally, for reloading. They stand waiting, and two HIMARS rockets hit them. All turned KIAs, the cars were smashed.

Today, a similar incident happened in another unit, only they did not stand in the indicated place, they stood a little further away. And the place where they were supposed to wait was hit exactly at the time indicated by the "aid suppliers"

What follows from this is that the enemy is using new tricks. What to expect next? I do not rule out that they will start to deceive the real humanitarian aid suppliers themselves. They will lure them to a place allegedly to receive aid and then greet them with such gifts. What to do with all this, one need to think

Take care of yourself, even after the end of the SMO [special military operation], anything will be hit anywhere, because the Ukes are already waging a guerrilla war, they are already assembling kamikaze drones in their garages. Once again—do not panic, you just need to be careful. These are the times we have been given

And once again, thanks to our rear, without you there will be no army. It is you who produce food, shells, bad UAZs), but still, thanks for them. We are repairing them here, and no matter what condition they are in, the Chinese autos cannot be repaired here. Thanks to everyone who is simply waiting for our victory and does not even know how to help - you also help, because you are waiting

And here we will try to make sure that children make crackers not for the front

The Ostorozhno, Novosti [Beware the news] Telegram channel:

In Krasnodar, a man who stabbed his elderly neighbors and received 18 years in prison was sent to the SMO [special military operation] straight from the courtroom.

Aleksandr Steshuk was found guilty of murder, robbery, theft and arson. In 2021, he broke into the yard of an elderly couple and killed them with a knife. The man then took valuables, 140 thousand rubles [$1,400] and set fire to the house to cover his tracks. The Krasnodar Regional Court sentenced him to 18 years in prison, and then considered the petition of the head of the military service selection point.

Steshuk was found fit for contract service and released to the SMO zone, where the convicted man himself asked to go. The defense and prosecution representatives did not object. From the courtroom, the man was immediately handed over to a military representative.

The Vazhnyye Istorii [iStories, independent Russian investigative media outlet] Telegram channel:

An 18-year-old resident of a village in the Krasnoyarsk region was killed in the war. Six months ago, a local official saw him off to the front. At the time, he said that there was “nothing to do” in the village

At the end of November, an 18-year-old college graduate from the Taseevsky District of the Krasnoyarsk region was killed in Ukraine. The obituaries dedicated to Aleksandr Vinshu attracted the attention of “Typical Krasnoyarsk” Telegram channel and “Sirena” media outlet.

🟤 He was killed on Nov. 28 as a result of mortar fire, as reported on the [VKontakte social network] page of the Kansk Technological College. Aleksandr was buried in his native village of Taseevo on Dec. 20.

Vinshu was awarded the Order of Courage posthumously, as reported on the [VKontakte social network] page of Taseevo College, where in April the head of the district Konstantin Diesendorf delivered a speech at Aleksandr's seeing-off ceremony.

I told him: "Maybe you don't need to, Sasha, first do military service [as a conscript], and then go on a contract." He said: "No, I've been thinking about it for a long time, I want to serve on a contract, since there is practically nothing to do in Taseevo, there is no work,"

the official said at a meeting with college students.

Diesendorf claimed that three more college students would go to war with Vinshu. They probably appeared in the photo published in one of the obituaries. There is no information about the fate of these college graduates.

🟤 "I don't think he will be sent to the frontline right away. This should not happen," the head of the district said in April. He also promised to negotiate with the military command about this. Judging by the obituaries, Vinshu was killed during the assault on the Ukrainian stronghold seven months after the seeing-off ceremony in Taseevo.

❓ Diesendorf, who published in April a post about the farewell of the "patriotic young man", did not report his funeral. As the Sirena media outlet found out , the official's children are not participating in the war—the eldest runs a local grain elevator, and the youngest heads the search department at the traffic police department in Krasnoyarsk.

Although I personally do not always agree with the DeepState and once we even had conflict situations and probably should have just sat, kept quiet and watched it all, but I will say it anyway.

The DeepState guys are not giving any comments at the moment, but as always there are behind-the-scenes rumors, someone said something.

Objectively, DeepStateMap is the best map of the Russian-Ukrainian war that exists. Functionality, relevance, etc. Trying to suppress such a project somewhere, and not adopt the practice, is stupidity.

All the media that exists is subjectivity. And yes, the DeepState guys, they present information subjectively, but like everyone else. If we have an article for this, then we will all be in prison.

If the DeepState disclosed information with the stamp "For official use" (for example), then there must be evidence. But most of the changes are happening through the geolocation of media in open sources, this is done by a million small channels, just DeepState guys with local connections and experience, do it more professionally, accurately and correctly.

Hopefully there will be some adequate solution to this situation and if it comes to suppressing the project because they talked too much (and this is absolutely real), then this is bullshit and I am completely on the side of the DeepState here.

The STERNENKO Telegram channel:
by Serhii Sternenko

The DeepState team is doing an extremely important job.
Their combat map is the best project of its kind in the world.
But most importantly, they are reporting the truth about the state of affairs, and those who try to hide, distort, or twist it don't like it.

Any attempts to put pressure on the DeepState will end very badly, and I hope it doesn't come to that.
Full support.

Regarding "shutting down" the DeepState guys.
It is better to think about how to avoid "cauldrons" and encirclements, and not how to hide them.

The Officer ✙ Telegram channel:

Idk if those rumors about the intentions of the high military command to shut down the Deep State are really true, because it sounds somehow too wild and banal: "Send the Deep State team to the infantry!"Also, the DeepState team officially announced contracts with the Ministry of Defense, so there is some dissonance, it is not very easy to understand whether this is really true.

Whatever the attitude towards them, such a project has the right to exist, and moreover—it is critically necessary for adequate public awareness, so that hype-eaters and unverified sources do not manipulate human sentiments by distorting information. It will be as much as possible in the style of Russia, at the end of the third year of the project's activity, to look for something illegal in their actions, although they do not distribute any specific information + they do it with a delay, so everything is within the framework of the law. Experience shows that silence and lies lead to fatal consequences…

In addition, I want to remind you that DeepState is far from the only OSINT project, should we shut down everyone now??)

"The [North] Koreans are storming, and we are going to gain a foothold"

The Galician paratroopers once again captured four Russian soldiers in Kursk. This time they are not former prisoners, but those who voluntarily signed a contract and went to fight against the Ukrainians to earn money.

The video shows two fighters of the motorized rifle regiment, who, after signing a contract and ten days of training, were thrown into Ukrainian positions and surrendered.

However, it is interesting that the prisoners say that soldiers from North Korea trained and carried out combat missions with them.
More about this later in the video.

🚫 The story of the "Uspenivka pocket" is over

🇷🇺 🐽 The enemy occupied Trudove and Uspenivka, occupying the last piece of the notorious "Uspenivka pocket." Unfortunately, not everyone was able to get out of it, and let it be on the conscience of those responsible for this mistake until the end of their days.

⤴️ Currently, the enemy is regrouping in the occupied area, and has also become more active on the flanks of the new potential "pocket." Assault actions are constantly being carried out from the side of Stary Terni in the direction of the Shevchenko-Andriivka section. Additional pressure is being exerted from the side of Sontsivka, which the Muscovites [Russians] also recently completely occupied.

⚔️ Attacks are also being carried out in the area of Zelenivka. Here, the Katsaps [Russians] are actively using military vehicles and infantry, bringing the latter as close as possible to the line of contact, where they disperse and try to gain a foothold in the forest lines, with the aim of further advancement. Yesterday we reported about one of these assaults on the channel. In this area, the goal is the same—Andriivka, which they are trying to get to through Kostyantynopil.

❗️ We hope that this time they will pay attention to the flanks that last time led to the formation of the "Uspenivka pocket"

An 18-year-old Tatarstan resident was killed two weeks after signing a contract

Rinaz Gubaydullin from the Tatarstan [Russia’s constituent republic] village of Nusa was born on Mar. 17, 2005. A few weeks before his 19th birthday, he signed a contract [with the Ministry of Defense] and went to war. On Feb. 20, Gubaydullin left the town of Arsk and almost immediately found himself at the front.

On Mar. 1, he stopped communicating. His mother spoke about this in a video published on July 1 on the NE ZHDI menya iz Ukrainy [DON'T WAIT for me from Ukraine] Telegram channel (a channel where relatives publish videos about searching for their near and dear ones at war).

The woman said that her son was in the Luhansk region. After that, there were no publications until the end of November. And on Nov. 29, an obituary emerged. Rinaz Gubaydullin was killed on Mar. 4, 2024, less than two weeks after signing the contract.

The VChK-OGPU Telegram channel:

The VChK-OGPU Telegram channel has learned details of the liquidation of the head of the radiation, chemical and biological defense troops of the RuAF, Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov. The military leader (the position of the murdered man is equivalent to the position of Deputy Minister of Defense) lived with his wife on Ryazansky Prospekt street; his two sons are studying in Kostroma, where their father once headed the specialized Academy. Having recovered from the shock, the woman testified at the investigation headquarters (deployed in the premises of the property management company) that in connection with the war and the general's active position in the media, she asked her husband to provide himself with security. However, her husband simply brushed her off, saying that he is accompanied everywhere by two people: adjutant Ilya Polikarpov and driver Andrey Golenishchev. Both came to meet Igor Kirillov this morning.

Andrey Golenishchev, who was in the car at the entrance at the time of the explosion, complained that he had slept for only 3 hours. Such a short gap between shifts was formed because the general finished work late the previous evening, the official [Toyota] Camry driven by Andrey brought him home after 9:00 PM. Then the driver took Ilya Polikarpov home, brought the car to the departmental motor pool, and drove home in his own car. He had to repeat the same route, but in reverse order, this morning. Andrey Golenishchev was assigned to the general as a personal driver and had been driving Igor Kirillov since the spring of this year. According to him, their route had never changed during all this time - he was alone without any precautions. From Andrey's story it follows that he drove into the yard at 6:05 AM. There was no "tail" behind the car, and there was no interference in the electronics either. When the explosion occurred, the airbags deployed and he was in shock. While still in the car, he called 112 and the duty officer at the convoy. Neither the general nor the adjutant showed signs of life. The scooter was thrown back by the blast wave, there was no smoke or fire above it. Igor Kirillov's wife was the first to run down, she was also in a state of shock.

As it turned out, in addition to a "migrant" who drove the scooter (according to the main version, the explosives were still installed on it) and the car sharing passenger, there are still many blank spots in the situation. Andrey Golenishchev did not pay attention to the stranger who had been smoking near the entrance for some time before the general came out. He also did not see the running car parked nearby, which has also not yet been identified.
