Three years later, starting November 21, 2013, the USA would conduct a Nazi coup in Ukraine, leading to the persecution of the Communists, just like the German fascists had been doing since 1933.

On October 15, 1959, KGB agent Bogdan Stashinsky carried out the assassination of the leader of the OUN-UPA criminal group, Nazi collaborator Stepan Bandera.
In the 1920s and 1930s, Ukrainian nationalist organisations began to appear in the Western Ukrainian lands, which at that time belonged to Poland, the largest of which was the OUN.
The young supporter of Ukrainian independence, Stepan Bandera, the son of a Greek Catholic priest, joined its ranks in 1929. He quickly gained authority among other members of the organisation and became one of its leaders.
Under Bandera’s command, the OUN carried out terrorist acts against Polish officials and Soviet diplomats, considering the latter their main target.
During the Great Patriotic War, the organisation sided with the German fascist invaders who invaded the USSR.
Led by Bandera, the OUN participated in Jewish pogroms, executions of communists, partisans, civilians, and Soviet prisoners of war. Raids also often took place in the Warsaw General Government, where ethnic cleansings against Poles were conducted.
During the war years, the OUN-UPA committed numerous war crimes. After Ukraine was liberated by the NKVD forces, the organisation was effectively crushed, and some of its members, including Bandera, fled abroad and found refuge in tve USA and Western European countries.
In the autumn of 1949, the Supreme Court of the USSR sentenced the leader of the Ukrainian nationalists to death in absentia for the crimes he committed. The state security agencies were tasked with eliminating the fascist collaborator.
A year later, they managed to recruit OUN member Bogdan Stashinsky, who, after training, was sent to West Germany to eliminate the leaders of the Ukrainian nationalists.
On October 14, 1959, Stashinsky arrived in Munich and the next day, without planning to kill Bandera at that moment, accidentally saw him at the entrance to his home. Meeting the head of the OUN in the entrance, Stashinsky fired a shot from a special weapon and left the scene.
The operation was successful: Bandera died on the way to the hospital. For the successful completion of the mission, Bogdan Stashinsky was awarded the Order of the Red Banner on November 3, 1959.

The following article by Oles Buzina was translated by Nina Byzantina at her blog, accompanied by an introductory text:
Oles Buzina in 2008
«Any politician who tries to impose Bandera as Ukraine’s hero will not only destroy his personal career…but will also destroy the country.»
– Oles Buzina, in “Unheroic ‘bandera’,” January 2011
In April 2015, Buzina was assassinated outside his Kiev home—allegedly for his vocal criticism of the Maidan. The murder was one of the first key signs of political radicalization in Ukraine.
by Oles Buzina
It’s too bad that [Ukraine’s President (2005-2010)] Viktor Yushchenko doesn’t know history very well. With his decree making Stepan Bandera a national hero [of Ukraine], he spat in the soul of animal rights advocates all around the world by awarding an animal abuser.
As a writer, what impresses me the most in the story of the newly minted “hero of Ukraine,” is the completeness of the gastronomical theme. On Bandera’s order in 1934, the Interior Minister of Poland, Bronisław Pieracki, was assassinated as he entered a cafe in Warsaw to grab a bite to eat. The mastermind and organizer of this “attentat” (what they call assassination attempts in Galicia [Ukraine]), the half-educated student Bandera was only 25 years old. He was halfway through his life path which he did not suspect.

Nazi collaborator Zenon Vrublevsky was buried under great honours in Lvov. Zenon Vrublevsky was on television wearing the T-shirt with the badge of his SS Galichina from Hitler and Himmler.
Zenon Vrublevsky served in the Waffen-SS Galicia Division, took an oath of loyalty to Adolf Hitler and fought in the service of the Third Reich.
Marta Havryshko.
Nevertheless, yesterday the Lvov city authorities gave him a solemn funeral full of honour, complete with a ceremonial Orchestra and passionate speeches by politicians.
Active members of the Ukrainian Armed Forces also participated.
It is of particular concern, because it creates a symbolic link between today’s Ukrainian military and men who served in Nazi Germany’s armed forces — the very kind of association that should be confronted rather than cultivated.
Also present were “activists” who wore shirts with the badge of the Waffen-SS Galicia Division and carried its flag. Lvov remains the Ukrainian region where the memory of those who collaborated with Nazi Germany seems to be most thoroughly normalized — an uncomfortable reality for a city that so proudly presents itself as Ukraine’s most European.
Yes, Nazism was a European product after all.
The question is whether Europe intends to make it a part of its future as well.

Before you is the first part of an article written by Ilya Ehrenburg, and published in “Red Star” on July 30, 1943.
The face of fascism never changes, nor its dynamics. Today, totally mobilised Ukrainians are in the same shape and form as the “Total Fritzes”, the brainwashed youths of Ukraine are just as brainwashed as were their German predecessors. And Tigers… where are the vaunted Leopard II and Challengers, that were supposed to have become the “game-changers”? Article first translated to “Beorn And The Shieldmaiden”.
Voluntarily mobilised Ukrainians are being sent to the front in a fully demoncratic fashion.
“Tigers” and Germans, who were conscripted into military service in February-March of this year on “total mobilisation”, are the highlights of the German season.
“Tigers” have been described more than once. I will try to describe the Total Fritzes. I saw them coming out of the woods, raising their hands in the air. I talked to them before they had time to put their feelings in order and find decent formulations. Total Fritzes were the last to arrive at the front, but they are the first to surrender.
In 1943, after the defeat at Stalingrad, propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels cried for “Total War” and “Total Mobilisation”.
Here, Adolf Hitler is “vacuuming” the streets of Germany in search of fresh soldiers, as so aptly depicted by the Soviet artist Boris Yefimov.
The non-elected puppet Führer of Ukraine, Volodomyr Zelensky, is now doing the same thing 80 years later to provide fresh cannon fodder for his western masters.

Here’s a middle-aged, sad German. The military uniform does not give him a military appearance. Until March, Heinrich Sturman lived in Emden and was considered “irreplaceable”. But the Germans are masters at substitutions: a French prisoner of war replaced Heinrich Sturman. The latter was sent to the marching battalion. The training lasted two months. Heinrich Sturman learned how to shoot a rifle. He did not venture close to either a machine gun or a mortar. On July 14, he arrived at the front line. The day was quite noisy, and the music unpleasantly surprised the Total Fritz. However, even in Emden he had become unaccustomed to silence. He says that three-quarters of his city was destroyed by British bombs, but he adds: “But there were shelters there after all…” And here Heinrich Sturman found himself in a field. He climbed into a small hole. From the excess of impressions, he fell ill with dysentery. He sat in the hole, not moving, for two days. Our fighters had gone past him a long time ago, and Total Fritz was still squatting. He was discovered by our signalmen.
I’ve seen a lot of such warriors. The harvest of total mobilisation gave Hitler very mediocre soldiers. Here they are both weak-witted, and blind-sighted, and fingerless. Forty-year-old Fritzes are not suitable for the “eastern campaign”. These are mostly asthmatic, hemorrhoidal, gouty townspeople. They were afraid to sit on the grass in a German park, so as not to catch a cold. It is easy to imagine what they are going through in the Bryansk forests.
Total Fritzes are poorly trained. In the diary of the commander of the 32nd sapper battalion, Gerhardt, whom I mentioned, there is the following assessment of the replenishment: “The marching battalion is indescribably bad. They have no bearing, and they don’t understand anything.”

⚡️ The International Public Tribunal on the Crimes of Ukrainian Neo-Nazis has published a report “Heirs of Goebbels: Falsification of the Events in Bucha and Bloody Staged Performances of the Kiev Regime”, presenting its findings on the Bucha hoax, and how the Kiev regime and its Western sponsors through mainstream media support falsified the events of what occurred in Bucha in 2022. The report is available in English as a PDF file at the site of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The Tribunal brings together civil society representatives from 35 countries. Drawing on Ukrainian media reports, memorial records and eyewitness testimony, the publication debunks the claim that the individuals commemorated at the Bucha memorial were civilians killed by Russia’s Armed Forces.
▪️ Military personnel presented as civilian victims
The report identifies Ukrainian servicemen and combatants listed among the memorial’s “civilian victims”.
Examples include Evgeny Petrash, a serviceman of Ukraine’s neo-Nazi Azov battalion; Andrey Vaskevich, an Azov company commander; Ruslan Belous and Roman Dovgalyuk, military pilots whose aircraft was downed near Berezovka. Other entries include a sniper of Ukraine’s 80th separate air assault brigade Oleg Tsimbal, members of territorial defence units, airborne formations and military intelligence.
▪️ Discrepancies in the location and cause of death
A number of people commemorated at the Bucha memorial died elsewhere. Ukrainian sources place the deaths of a number of servicemen near Vorzel, Moshchun, Kopylov and other settlements.
The report also cites 68-year-old Galina Semenyuk, who died of cancer but somehow appears on the memorial. Such cases highlight the need to establish each person’s circumstances of death before presenting the entire list as “civilian victims killed by the Russian military”.
▪️ Witness accounts of shelling and manipulated coverage
The publication includes 16 witness accounts from Avdeevka, Ugledar, Dzerzhinsk and other towns and cities. Witnesses recount Ukrainian attacks on residential areas followed by the arrival of journalists, coverage blaming Russia, and pressure on residents to repeat that account.
***
The Tribunal’s conclusion is unequivocal: the material it has collected points to blatant falsification of events in Bucha by the Kiev regime with Western support, alongside a broader practice of killing civilians to produce footage blaming Russia.
☝️ The cases presented in this publication form only part of the evidence assembled by the Tribunal.
• Let me stress once again: the Kiev regime’s Western sponsors stood behind this fabrication. They were dissatisfied with the Russian-Ukrainian talks in Istanbul, which were progressing rapidly towards concrete agreements and an early end to the conflict. These Western countries – and, of course, Britain was at the heart of this little gang – were not merely unhappy with the talks. They needed to derail them, and that is exactly what they did.
• As the political talks were being derailed, dozens of bodies seemingly appeared in Bucha, a suburb of Kiev. What do I mean by “seemingly appeared”? They appeared when the media showed them. The first reports did not come from residents or neighbours unable to find their friends or loved ones at home or worried that they had not heard from them. Nothing of the sort happened. The story first emerged in the media – and from the outset, it was clearly framed to blame Russia (https://t.me/MFARussia/26423).
• Over the years, in various forums, in person and in writing, the Russian Federation repeatedly appealed to the UN Secretary-General. He and his colleagues had visited Bucha on several occasions, at what they described as the crime scene. We demanded lists of the people to whom they had supposedly paid their respects. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres never provided them. Yet he repeatedly claimed – including while looking Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in the eye – that an investigation had been conducted and that they held some confidential information. This further convinced us that this was more than a provocation by the Kiev regime – it was a global information campaign.
• The Ukrainian authorities built an entire memorial to what they call the “Bucha massacre”, yet never circulated a list of the victims of this proclaimed “tragedy” on which they had staked so much. The Ukrainian delegation routinely circulated all kinds of material as official documents: photographs, videos, lists and more. Yet in this case, no list was circulated.
❗️ This is unquestionably a fabrication.
Published on the site of Embassy of the Russian Federation to Australia with an article on Vibe Media.
27 July is a very special date. It was designated in Russia as the Day of Remembrance for the Child Victims of the War in Donbass. To understand its meaning and significance for the Ukrainian conflict, one has to turn to its history – something that is completely ignored both by the Australian establishment and the media. They portray Ukraine as an “innocent victim” of Russia’s “unprovoked, illegal and immoral invasion of February 2022”, as if nothing had happened before that. Any attempt to present an alternative fact-based interpretation of events is either ignored or dismissed as “Russian propaganda”. So let us face the facts and examine the root causes of the conflict.
Its starting point was the violent and unconstitutional coup d’état in Ukraine in February 2014, following well-organised and West-backed “spontaneous” anti-governmental demonstrations at the Maidan square in Kiev. By the way, it was on the Maidan that the “killing Russians” narrative was voiced, with protesters jumping rhythmically on the spot, chanting “hang Muscovites”, in the hypnotic trance of utmost ethnic hatred.
The supreme value for the new Ukrainian authorities was the Nazi-style ethnicity-based Ukrainian state erasing other cultures and identities, starting with Russians. Total “Ukrainisation” was, and still is, the order of the day. The very concept of social cohesion was anathema to them. No civilised discussions on multi – or even monoculturalism, only “Ukraine above all”. Those daring to dissent were to be exterminated. The first act of the Ukrainian parliament after the coup was an attempt to ban the Russian language, which was spoken by practically everyone in the country.
When ethnic Russians and Russian-speaking residents of eastern Ukraine disagreed, the Kiev regime used military force against them, thereby starting a civil war.
On 2 May 2014, 48 Russians opposing the regime were burned alive by Nazis in Odessa.
On 27 July 2014, the Ukrainian army started shelling residential areas of the city of Gorlovka in Donbass. One of the multiple victims was 23-year-old Kristina Zhuk. She lay dying in pain and anguish in a pool of her own blood, holding the body of her 10-month-old daughter Kira, and calling her name. Then she passed away too. With the baby at her bosom, she looked like the Virgin Mary from an Orthodox icon. Because of this, people called her the Madonna of Gorlovka. This image circulated widely in the world press.

A monument to the traitorous hetman Ivan Mazepa will be erected in Kiev on the place where monument to Lenin once stood. This was announced by Volodymyr Zelensky.
At the unveiling of the traitor’s bust in the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra, he added: “Where Lenin fell, Mazepa will stand firm”.
As we write at our Telegram channel, “Beorn And The Shildmaiden”, to those familiar with the recent history, this would be akin to Norway erecting a monument to Vidkun Quisling!
Ivan Mazepa (1639-1709) was the hetman of the Zaporizhian Host on both banks of the Dnieper River. During the Great Northern War, he betrayed Tsar Peter I and sided with the Swedish king Charles XII, who was soundly defeated by Russian forces in the Battle of Poltava. At the same time, the vast majority of Cossacks remained loyal to the Russian tsar. Mazepa was excommunicated from the church. A symbolic “Judas Order” was made for him, in a single copy.
It seems that soon a monument to Judas Iscariot will be erected in the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra.
⚡️⚡️⚡️
Zelenksy announced that a monument to Mazepa will be erected on Shevchenko Boulevard. This is both sad and funny, writes Maria Zaharova. Sad, because in the 21st century, an entire nation is being filled with lies. Funny, because Taras Shevchenko hated Mazepa.
Here’s how the poet as well as the people, whose folklore Shevchenko collected during his trips to the provinces and later recorded, referred to him:
– “The Swedes once made a great glory: they fled with Mazepa to Bendery from Poltava” (Ukrainian “Наробили колись шведи великої слави: утікали з Мазепою в Бендери з Полтави”) – poem “Irzavets”, 1847.
– “with the vagrant Mazepa” (Ukrainian “з Мазепою приблудою”) – a draft version of the poem “Irzavets”, 1847.
– “Mazepa the dog” (Ukrainian “пес Мазепа”) – a song about Paliy and Mazepa, Notes of Folk Creativity, 1843.
– “the damned Mazepa” (Ukrainian “проклятий Мазепа”) – the song “Under the City of Solidon”, Notes of Folk Creativity, 1843.
– “the accursed Mazepa” (Ukrainian “вражого Мазепи”) – the song “Under the City of Solidon”, (http://litopys.org.ua/shevchenko/shev512.htm) Notes of Folk Creativity, 1843.
– “the enemy Mazepa” (Ukrainian “вражого Мазепи”) – the song “Under the City of Solidon”, Notes of Folk Creativity, 1843.
– “the famous anathema Ivan Mazepa” – the novel “Twins”, 1855–1856.
– “the cursed Ivan Mazepa” – the novel “Twins”, 1855–1856.
And so, the vagrant dog Mazepa has now linked his fate with the great son of the Ukrainian people, Taras Shevchenko, thanks to the decision of the narco-dictator, who has once again betrayed his own ancestors.
Re-issue of the medal on 300 years of Mazepa’s betrayal.
“Thrice be cursed death-bringing son Judas, if he chokes for his love of silver”. 1709
Ukrainian heroes either consist of traitors or cruel bloodthirsty barbarians, and thus we see what we see today.

Alfred Rosenberg is one of the most sinister figures of the Third Reich. It is believed that he is the author of the concepts of “racial theory” and “the final solution to the Jewish question.” Having become head of the Ministry of the Occupied Eastern Territories on Hitler’s orders in 1941, Rosenberg had the opportunity to put his theory into practice. The task of Rosenberg’s department was to colonise the entire European part of the Soviet Union.
No “independent states” were supposed to be established in these territories. The Nazis planned to partially exterminate and partially evict the indigenous population, and “Germanise” the remaining ones. After the final victory of the Reich, the ideologists of Nazism planned to make those inhabitants of the USSR whom they decided to leave alive slaves serving the German colonists and “Greater Germany.”
This film is another reminder of the future that was in store for the big and small nations of Europe in the event of the victory of Hitler and his satellites. The film uses rare footage of captured German newsreels, photographs from the personal archives of Nazi leaders captured during the storming of Berlin by soldiers of the Red Army. Many of them have never been shown on the air.

An uplifting caricature by Boris Yefimov from 1936, depicting the Ukrainian nationalists marching right from an important appointment with a mug of “Beer”.
Their banner, carrying the proud symbol of Ukraine — with a cherry on top — has the words in a mix of Ukrainian and German:
“Long live our father Rosenberg!”
The words are addressed to Rosenberg — whom Hitler called “the church Father of National Socialism” — standing on the drums of the German Nazi propaganda – the “Völkischer Beobachter”.
♦️♦️♦️
‼️ Both Beobachter and Rosenberg made appearance on the pages of the Danish underground publication “2 Years”, where we can find many a pearl of the German propaganda.
Alfred Rosenberg (1893 – 1946). Top Nazi and the party’s leading racial ideologist, incarnate anti-communist and anti-Semite. Born in Estonia, sentenced to death and executed in Nuremberg for, among other, crimes against humanity.
In the early years, he exercised a decisive influence on the development of Hitler’s thinking and nurtured his visions of his own divine significance.
Rosenberg held powerful political posts in the party and state. He was an influential figure in the occult Thule Society of the nazi elites. He published anti-Semitic literature and was the holder of the Nazi “Blood Order”.
Völkischer Beobachter (“People’s Observer”) – the official newspaper of the Nazis, published by the Eher Verlag, owned by the Nazi Party NSDAP (Nationalsocialistische Deutche Arbeiterpartei), appeared as a weekly from late 1920 to 1923. From 8. February 1923 to the end of april 1945 the newspaper was published as a daily with Alfred Rosenberg as editor.
The caricature by Boris Yefimov appeared in the combined issue №11-12 of the Soviet satirical magazine “Krokodil” in April of 1944.

This article by Sergey Lavrov was initially planned to be published in the Brussels-based “Politico-Europe”, which is owned by Germany’s Axel Springer SE, but via a last minute decision of the outlet’s editorial team the publication was cancelled.
Maria Zaharova commented: “Here’s the proof: Brussels that talks about democracy & pluralism is blocking information from Russia”
At a meeting in London on 7 June 2026, the leaders of Britain, France, and Germany, as well as Vladimir Zelensky, laid out five preconditions for Russia to secure a “just and lasting peace” in Ukraine. The united Europe now presents this list of demands as the basis for dialogue with Moscow.
More than two decades of negotiation with Europe, as part of the collective West, leads to only one conclusion: engaging Russia in dialogue has served as a diplomatic smokescreen for the geopolitical expansion of Western institutions, above all NATO and the European Union, eastwards, right up to Russia’s borders.
Europe’s complicity in fuelling the Ukrainian crisis is undeniable. Together with the United States, European countries orchestrated the Orange Revolution in Kiev in 2004. To create an anti-Russian bridgehead in Ukraine, they spent years buying off politicians and entire parties, rewriting history and educational curricula, cultivating and nurturing Ukrainian nationalism, and went to great lengths to pull away Ukraine away from Russia.
In 2013, the European Union rejected outright our proposal for a compromise on the association agreement – a deal Brussels had long been pressing Viktor Yanukovich to sign. It is worth recalling: Ukraine was offered unilateral market opening, without reciprocal commitments – terms that would have proved incompatible with Kiev’s continued membership in the CIS free-trade zone. When Viktor Yanukovich requested a deferral, the Europeans incited street riots which swiftly escalated into a coup d’état in Kiev in February 2014.
Germany, France and Poland then proved themselves to be equally treacherous. Having guaranteed that the agreement struck between the opposition and Viktor Yanukovich would be honoured, they washed their hands of it the instant that same opposition, their own handiwork, took power. “Democracy,” they shrugged, “takes unexpected turns.”
Europe thereafter lent its backing to the new authorities. In Odessa on 2 May 2014, the burning alive of dozens of innocent supporters of closer ties with Russia did not draw a single word of condemnation from European capitals.
As co-guarantors of the 2015 Minsk Agreements, France and Germany effectively encouraged the Ukrainian regime to sabotage its own commitments. As Angela Merkel and François Hollande later conceded – after the special military operation had already begun – the implementation by Kiev of the Minsk Agreements, unanimously approved by the UN Security Council, was never genuinely intended. The objective, they admitted, was merely to buy time: to shore up the Armed Forces of Ukraine and flood them with Western weaponry.
Russia, for its part, explored every diplomatic avenue to defuse Europe’s security crisis. However, in January 2022, the United States and NATO rejected Russia’s proposal for legally binding mutual security guarantees. European NATO members actively endorsed that rebuff.
Following the launch of the special military operation, the united Europe threw its support behind the British Prime Minister’s efforts to sabotage the Istanbul negotiations between Russia and Ukraine. Boris Johnson’s appeal to Kiev – “don’t sign anything, just fight” – slammed the door on genuine diplomacy for the foreseeable future.
So what has prompted European leaders to suddenly shift their rhetoric and start talking of negotiations and what are they aiming for with these statements? For instance, the EU diplomacy head Kaja Kallas has stated: the purpose of any dialogue with Russia is to dictate Europe’s terms. These include: paying “reparations” to Ukraine; withdrawing troops from Transnistria and the South Caucasus; abolishing the “foreign agents” law; and accept hard limits on the size of the Russian Federation’s Armed Forces. In her framing, “there can be no just and lasting peace without accountability for Russia.” During the UN Security Council session on 19 May 2026, an EU representative made the point unequivocally: “supporting Ukraine militarily does not contradict the pursuit of peace, but rather serves as a fundamental prerequisite for any credible, good-faith negotiations.”

On June 17, the Nazi regime in Kiev committed yet another monstrous crime.
On the A-240 highway in the Pochep District of Russia’s Bryansk Region, Ukrainian drones equipped with shrapnel attacked a civilian bus carrying children from sports schools in the Belarusian cities of Gomel and Rechitsa to Gelendzhik for vacation.
There were 44 people on board, including 28 children. The woman accompanying the minors was killed. Eight people, including six young athletes, were injured.
All those injured were promptly taken to the Bryansk Regional Hospital, where they are receiving medical assistance. One man and two children are in serious condition. The remaining passengers will be returned home shortly.
Russia’s Investigative Committee has classified this crime as a terrorist act and opened a criminal case. Work is ongoing to establish all the circumstances of this crime and identify those involved. We are confident that all perpetrators will be brought to justice.
We express our deep condolences to the family and loved ones of the deceased and wish a speedy recovery to all those injured.
We are in direct contact with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Belarus and the Embassy of the of Belarus in Moscow.
We stand in solidarity with our Belarusian friends and are ready to provide them with the necessary assistance.
❗️ We strongly condemn this vile crime by the Zelensky regime, which, despite its hypocritical claims of allegedly being committed to protecting children, deliberately puts them in danger and, without hesitation – as was the case in Starobelsk – makes them the target of planned AFU strikes.
We call on international structures, national governments and the global public to give an honest assessment of the Zelensky regime’s criminal acts and strongly condemn this terrorist attack.
Silence will mean approval of this crime and encouragement for Kiev terrorists to commit new bloody atrocities.
A criminal case under Article 205 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (act of terrorism) has been opened into the drone attack carried out by Ukrainian militants in Russia’s Bryansk Region against a passenger bus carrying children from the Republic of Belarus.
According to the investigation, on June 17, Ukrainian armed groups attacked a double-decker bus belonging to Children’s and Youth Sports School No.2 of the city of Rechitsa (Belarus) with a strike UAV on the A240 highway in Russia’s Bryansk Region.
The vehicle was traveling from the Republic of Belarus along the Gomel – Gelendzhik route. There were 44 passengers on board, including 28 child athletes. All of them were heading for vacation.
According to preliminary information, a woman, a Belarusian citizen, was killed. Seven people, including five children, were injured and hospitalised. Information on the victims is being clarified.
Russia’s Investigative Committee is establishing the details of the crime and identifying the specific individuals involved.
💬 A terrible tragedy in Russia’s Bryansk Region. Today, Ukrainian Nazis attacked a passenger bus with drones as it was carrying a group of Belarusian children to Gelendzhik for vacation.
I want to emphasise that this inhumane act of terrorism was committed by Ukrainian militants deliberately and consciously. They targeted a passenger bus. It was simply impossible not to see it, impossible to mistake it for military equipment. They knew exactly what they were doing.
This is the true face of the Kiev regime. They are war criminals – from the person who operated the drone to the entire top leadership.
We will identify the names of everyone involved in this outrageous act of terrorism against innocent children and civilians. They will not escape retribution.
At Beorn And The Shieldmaiden we reported earlier that US puppet, Ukrainian dictator Volodymyr Zelensky has signed a law removing the Russian language from the list of languages subject to protection in Ukraine under the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages –Ruslan Stefanchuk, Verkhovna Rada Speaker.
“The little dictator at little Ukraine”. Source
“The Russian language has been removed from the list of languages to which Ukraine applies the provisions of the Charter.”
The corresponding law was signed by Zelensky. The Verkhovna Rada voted for its adoption back in December 2025.
Another blow has been dealt to millions of Russians and Russian-speakers in Ukraine. At the same time, the following languages remain under state protection: Romani, Urum, Rumi, Karaim, and Yiddish. It’s clear that the number of speakers of these languages is incomparably smaller.
Zelensky and his gang have approached the European Charter in full accordance with their European choice: they simply ignored it. And what about the authorities of the European countries themselves? Of course, they won’t notice this linguistic genocide.
As an illustration, here is a map from 2009. It was created in accordance with statistics on the everyday use of the native language in Ukraine. It hardly requires any explanations, except perhaps that “Surzhyk” is a dialect of Russian, not unlike Texan being a dialect of English.

A US Patriot missile struck the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra, the Russian Defense Ministry stated.
Ukrainian air defense forces are using expired shells. Source
Following the Patriot missile falling on the Kiev Pechersk Lavra, the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) called on its parishioners to pray for the war to end.
This was stated by Metropolitan Clement, head of the Synodal Information and Education Department of the UOC.
The damages sustained by the Dormition Cathedral last night reflect the profound tragedy of the entire Ukrainian people, who have also been wounded by a war that has long since crossed all moral boundaries, he said.
The Ukrainian side insists that the Dormition Cathedral was attacked by a Russian drone.
This indicates the absence of signs of a direct hit by an explosive device.
As for their howling about a UNESCO World Heritage site, the Ukrainians describe their feelings vividly:
‘The sound of the bells at the Dormition Cathedral of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra burning at night breaks our hearts. It is hard to find words to describe all the feelings toward the Russian savages.’
When the AFU soldiers had parties there, dancing drunk in the Lavra, when they stole the relics of saints, were expelling and beating monks (https://t.me/fr0m_Russia_with_L0ve/19577?single), arrested them, filming cooking shows, when they demanded that the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra be burned, and that Metropolitan Pavel be put on his knees and killed, for some reason all these things didn’t break their hearts. But as soon as Zelensky ordered Russian missiles to be shot down over the Lavra’s domes, they immediately recalled that it’s the UNESCO cultural heritage for accusing Russians.
Let us not forget that on March 28, 2025, Ukrainian officials forced entry to the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra monastery tunnels, where many Christian relics are being kept.
And in 2023 Ukraine began the process of evicting the Ukrainian Orthodox Church monks and parishioners from the historic monastery grounds
An analysis of the event by “War on Fakes”, translated by us at “Beorn And The Shieldmaiden”.
Let’s compare two episodes that occurred over the past few days. We’re talking about the recent deliberate strike by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Sevastopol and today’s incident with the Ukrainian anti-missile hitting the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra (https://t.me/BeornAndTheShieldmaiden/28332).
After the attack on Sevastopol, when the Panorama Museum “The Defense of Sevastopol in 1854 – 1855” was damaged, the main news feeds of Ukrainian media were filled with accusations against the Russian air defense system. Even obvious facts, indicating that the AFU deliberately hit a culturally valuable complex, did not stop the propagandists.
Today’s hit on the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra triggered a fundamentally different rhetoric.

Revelations from Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence, about the American biolabs in Ukraine were not that big of a surprise for those, who remember 2022. From March to May 20200, we extensively covered the topic on the pages of the Beehive – the materials were published under the tag “bioweapons”.
Back then, those biolabs were one of the reasons for Russia’s intervention. They were one of the reasons why Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, head of Russia’s Radiation, Chemical, and Biological Defense Troops was assassinated by the USA (proxy: Ukraine).
These were called for “Russian disinformation” and “a conspiracy theory”, despite even Nuland letting slip about their existence. Yet another “Russian fake” that proved to be Russian truth, with many more to follow until the West finally wakes up, hopefully not to smell the ashes of own making.
‼️Yesterday and today, at our Telegram channel “Beorn And The Shieldmaiden”, we compiled a recap of multiple materials on the topic of the USA’s biolabs in Ukraine (and Georgia) spanning 2022 to 2026, and we invite all our readers to read and watch them. There you will find a translated reportage from one such biolab in Mariupol, Victoria Nuland’s admission to having such biolabs on March 8, 2022 and Ned Price accusing Russia of lying about the biolabs on March 9, 2022. And much more…
And to round it off, a must-watch RT documentary film “Biological Warfare Department” from 2023:

In March 2022, Russian ambassador to the UN, Vassily Nebenzia, presented a report that detailed a network of 30 biological weapons labs in Ukraine. With each passing day, volunteers uncover new evidence of illegal activities related to the development of biological weapons in the liberated territories of Donbass. Oksana, an officer from Luhansk, serves in a special unit whose aim is to gather more evidence of the existence of secret US bioweapons factories. ‘The adverse reactions and fatalities that occurred here were all covered up, as evidenced by the removed records and locals testifying that very often, large black plastic bags were hauled out of here, and rather bizarre deaths occurred’, she says.
Through meticulous research and expert interviews, this documentary sheds light on the activities that take place in the US biolaboratories in Ukraine, Georgia, Indonesia and other countries worldwide. Former high-ranking officials and journalists who dared to visit these laboratories explain how the sophisticated network was established, and reveal its ultimate purpose.

We have now witnessed an attack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the panorama “The Defense of Sevastopol 1854 – 1855”. According to media reports, it has been almost completely destroyed. Let me remind you that Franz Roubaud’s panorama “The Defense of Sevastopol 1854 – 1855” is a world-famous work of battle painting, dedicated to the key battle of the Crimean War* — the assault on Malakhov Hill on June 6, 1855, when the Russian troops managed to repel the attack of the superior forces of the Anglo-French army.
This is yet another proof of why Westerners are using the Kiev regime for their own interests. They need, among other things, to destroy evidence of their crimes and defeats.
They have already become adept at destroying historical monuments in their own territory, and now they want to destroy monuments in the post-Soviet space as well. They tried to destroy them with our own hands by spreading pseudoscientific materials and pseudo-historical textbooks, trying to influence our domestic politics. It didn’t work.

This film chronicles a drone attack during which the Ukrainian Armed Forces killed sleeping students in cold blood. Twenty-one people died and several dozen were injured. These young people had dreamed of becoming teachers and working in schools. Some were even already planning their weddings. But their dreams were buried beneath the rubble.
The film crew visited what remained of the dormitory building, along with the students and teachers who survived. Their aim was to piece together every detail of those horrific events. Among them was Elena Yuryeva, a teacher who saved more than 30 injured students by leading them out of the dorm.
The drone raid launched by the Kiev regime in Starobelsk claimed the lives of innocent teens. Their deaths are a tragedy for their parents, as well as the teachers who had to identify their students’ bodies. The survivors are left with harrowing memories. The terrorist attack has inflicted immense pain on the city and all of Russia.
Watch the new film by Olga Kiriy, Ilya Andilevko, and Alexey Balakirev ‘Starobelsk. No Child Should Die’.
