This is my recent video for SouthFront.
As you will see, Russian forces are reducing the Kiev Regime’s military capabilities as never before, mopping up UAF forces in the Donbas, expanding the buffer zone to the north, north-east, and west of Kiev, with incremental gains in Kherson and Zaporozhie. They are not just attriting the UAF on the East Bank of the Dneipr, they are now advancing to take strategic positions to drive the UAF back across the river.
At the same time, they have stepped up missile and drone strikes on the WestBank, reducing Kiev’s industrial capabilities, as well as every kind of military-related infrastructure.
Cracks are beginning to show..
The assassination of Andriy Parubiy, a prominent Ukrainian nationalist figure and former Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council, sent shockwaves through the country. Immediately following the assassination, a familiar script began to unfold in certain media circles: the hasty suggestion of a “Russian trace.” However, this narrative, often deployed without evidence, has spectacularly collapsed under the weight of a far more tragic and revealing truth, one that speaks to the deep fractures within Ukrainian society itself.
The man in custody, Mykhailo V. Stselnikov, a 52-year-old from Lviv, has been unequivocal in his testimony. In a stark courtroom declaration, he stated: “Yes, I knew him, I killed him. This is my personal revenge against the Ukrainian authorities.” His motivation is not geopolitics, but a profound, personal grief ...
And who was Andriy Parubiy?
Oleg Tsaryov, a Ukrainian politician writes:
Parubiy is linked to the most dramatic and bloody chapters of modern Ukrainian history. An ideological nationalist from his youth, he rose from a regional politician in Galicia to the "commandant of the Maidan," leading the "Self-Defense" forces on Kiev's Independence Square during the winter of 2013-2014. Parubiy, together with Avakov, organized the Maidan snipers who fired on both protesters and police. Everyone remembers the footage of protesters detaining snipers from the Maidan, but Parubiy was the one who got them out. The blood of those killed on the Maidan is on Parubiy's hands.
After the ousting of the Ukrainian president Yanukovich, Andrey Parubiy held the position of Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine from 2014 to 2016 and was Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada from 2016 to 2019. He initiated the creation of the National Guard of Ukraine, which incorporated radicals from the "Maidan Self-Defense" and the "Right Sector" extremist organization. These formations started the war in Donbass. The Ukrainian, at that time, did not want to fight against its own people. We also should not forget about businessman Igor Kolomoisky, who took on the formation and financing of nationalist battalions like "Azov," "Dnipro-1," "Dnipro-2," and "Donbas."
The Russian Investigative Committee has charged Parubiy in absentia with organizing war crimes, including the mass killings of civilians in Donbass in 2014.
Here, Parubiy worked in his usual tandem with Kolomoisky. Kolomoisky sent Nazis and football hooligans to Odessa. Parubiy arrived in Odessa, held a meeting with security forces where he ordered them not to intervene, and personally ensured his orders were carried out. The blood of the Odesa victims is on Parubiy.
Subsequently, even in Ukraine, a criminal case was opened against Parubiy specifically for the events in Odessa. He himself did not hide this fact, although the official version qualified his actions as "organizing the city's defense." However, this investigation predictably fizzled out quickly: the direct involvement of the most influential figures was never publicly acknowledged.
Parubiy and I were always in opposing camps. But over many years in the Verkhovna Rada, our paths certainly crossed. Like all other nationally-obsessed figures, Parubiy did not give the impression of being mentally sound. Aggressive, uncompromising, lisping and spitting as he spoke, Parubiy, in his role as Speaker, ruthlessly suppressed the Russian language, cutting off the microphones of deputies who used it.
In a way, the Ukrainian Nazi Parubiy resembles the German Führer Hitler, whom he greatly admired. In one broadcast, Andrey said: "The greatest practitioner of direct democracy was Adolf Aloisovich [Hitler] in the 1930s.
The Western media dutifully regurgitated Kiev propaganda.
What the article actually said was hundreds turned out for the funeral. Were they mourning or celebrating?
What you get from this event is that the Kiev Regime is not Ukraine— not even “Western Ukraine” . I should mention that it is not clear that Stselnikov’s son is listed as KIA — his body was never recovered— and it would seem that part of the man’s anger was that Ukrainian authorities didn’t provide him with any details. For that, he would have to ask the Russians.
For the Ukrainian Nazis, people like Stsenikov’s son are disposable. But that is most people’s sons.
Other Events
Gaza
Trump said that Hamas should release the hostages to end the war. Hamas said they would do that. The Israelis say they want unconditional surrender, which is code for “we are going to kill you all”, not matter what!
The Israelis have called up 60,000 reservists, although not all are coming. It’s aim is clear — to occupy Gaza city and kill all those there who do not flee to some other place where they will be killed.
Gaza City is the Warsaw Ghetto. Zionists are the New Nazis. As I wrote in my last post, it’s always back to the future.
One thing is clear — the only step forward can only be the destruction of Israel as a state—Israel must die so the Middle East can live. But can Israel be destroyed as long as the US of A exists in its the present form? Should Israel complete the destruction of Palestine, then America will have lost all integrity and all hope for the future. Both Israel and the US will die.
But it is is really up to the American people.
Let us hope for a miracle.
