New-Age Russia is Burning Internally

06 JUNE, 2023: Moscow was attacked by a barrage of drones this week, early Tuesday.

A huge drone attack in Russia came as Kyiv was bombarded.

Over the last several days, the capital of Kyiv has been attacked by Russian drones, missiles, and more, in preparation for the Ukrainian counter-offensive. Russia is slowly going crazy, as seen evidently by their current – and past – panicked actions.

Ukraine has recently announced that their counter-attack is ready; the dates are planned, and there is no turning back. This means that no matter what, Ukraine will attack Russian forces in the South and South-East in a matter of weeks – or even days.

With Russia being recently attacked by drones, it's pretty clear something is about to happen, at least.

Ukraine made no direct comment on the matter, however. With no concluding evidence, it cannot be confirmed that Ukraine was as a result of the attack. They did acknowledge that this attack occurred, but didn't state who the perpetrator was.

It's pretty clear, though.

United States Passes Spending Bill for Ukraine

United States of America passed yet another spending bill for Ukriane. The bill includes MANPADS, thirty million rounds of ammunition, demining systems, and spare parts for tanks and guns, just to name a few.

While the world anticipated the United States' economic collapse from the debt...

Happy to say that America raised its debt ceiling!

Therefore, more allocated spending to Ukraine, and no fear of the economy collapsing from an imminent default.

The United States supplying this ammunition and other miscellaneous items throughout the war has helped greatly, but is needed more than ever at this time. With the counter-offensive nearing, all of the extra items that the United States sends to Ukraine is greatly beneficial.

Belgorod Attacked... Again?

Isn't it beautiful?

The Russian city of Belgorod was bombed. By who? The Russians themselves!

In a clownish attempt to drop missiles and whatever else on Ukrainian territory, the Russians accidentally dropped a bomb on their city, again.

Last time we covered the Russians bombing their own city was a while back. But I hate to break it, that they did it again. Crazy enough – as if they haven't already done this – they'll surely find a way to blame Ukraine for the damage.

Now, to the real attack.

The Russian Volunteer Corps (RVC) attacked Belgorod, and continue to do so.

This image shows the Russian Volunteer Corps flying a captured MiG helicopter, in which they use it against other Russian positions.

Really Russia? after all this fighting, your own people are stealing helicopters from you.

LOL.

Also, the RVC will not yet leave the Belgorod region. While originally it was thought that they aren't there, believe it or not, they still are.

It is embarassing, too, that Russia is trying to defend a territory that they have supressed for so long. The Belgorod people, as covered before, are of Ukrainian heritage, speaking Russian with a Ukrainian accent.

It's just ridiculous that they try to defend these people, as they act like they care, and the next second that don't.

Russian-Crimean Kerch Bridge Damage

Image showing the Kerch Bridge and its state of decay are going around the internet.

While unconfirmed, it's still quite believable. Honestly, it is no surprise that this bridge would see such damage as it does.

So much traffic weighing down each concrete post is no surprise at all. So many trying to flee!

The bridge likely has this damage from being shaken by the missiles that hit it a while back.

Maybe Ukraine won't need to use a missile to destroy it. Perhaps it will just collapse?

Lastly, a small update of the skies above Ukraine.

As of 20:04 EST, Russian TU-95M bombers are airborne. This means damage is expected on Ukrainian soil.

Sadly, there is nothing that can be done to stop this, except shooting the bombers out of the air which is not only extremely difficult (since they're so high up), but also because it would spark an even bigger response from Russia.

And with no information about the frontlines (until the counter-offensive), that brings us to a close.
