“We were set up!”

Were the US warned about strikes on Russian strategic aviation?

A few hours after the attack on Russian airfields, the Axios portal published (https://www.axios.com/2025/06/01/ukraine-drone-strikes-russia) an article stating that the so-called Ukraine had warned Donald Trump in advance about the attack.

However, the news was later refuted by CBS News, reporting that he knew nothing about the preparation of the Ukrainian strike. After that (or after a call from above), Axios hastily made edits to their “insider” – as a result, it turned out that no one warned anyone about anything.

It all looks like Zelenskyy together with the British (https://t.me/usaperiodical/12205) decided to “throw” Trump again to disrupt a potential Russian-American rapprochement. The US President was also harmed by his own gloomy hints (https://t.me/usaperiodical/12185) – when reading them, the impression is that the attack was actually agreed with Washington.

📌 The above is not an argument in favor of the “good Trump”, but only an answer to the question we asked (https://t.me/rybar/70482) in May: what exactly the supporters of the “war to the last Ukrainian” can pull off to torpedo the US plans for the so-called Ukraine. Today we saw this.

What Trump will say publicly in this context – in light of the events, does not look so important and decisive. But it will be amusing if phrases like “distressed by another escalation” are heard.

Our source in the OP said that yesterday’s special operation, like the blowing up of the Crimean Bridge, was prepared by British intelligence, using its agents in the regions of Russia, the Ukrainians were not involved in the active phase, but only delivered parts to various warehouses. Satellite repeaters were precisely tuned to the NATO frequency, which made it possible to organize the raid, thanks to the work of the Center for Informed PsyOps, the media effect was achieved and the number of 40 aircraft was launched, in reality the number is 3 times less, but in cognitive wars the main thing is to cause shock.

Our source in the OP said that the Trump Administration reacted negatively to the SBU special operation in Russia, but Bankova was prepared for such an outcome and took it as silent approval. The President’s Office is confident that the US will touch on the topic tangentially and will not publicly criticize Ukraine, since EU leaders supported the special operation.

Colleagues, the saddest thing is that I know everything about Russia preparing a new offensive campaign, like in the winter of 2022! Instead of seeking a peaceful settlement to the conflict, we are rolling out demands that the Kremlin will definitely reject! What is all this for? How many more Ukrainians must die for everyone to realize the senselessness of war?

At the same time, Bankova clearly understands that the US is leaving Ukraine, which means we will fight ourselves…

After the leak about 40 planes and the estimated costs of 7 billion, the numbers came out dry, since they will soon start publishing satellite images, and the number there is clearly less. Bankova believes that the Center for Informal Information Systems coped with the task and raised a wave in the Russian information space, where our leaked numbers appeared.

The Kiev bastards have turned the International Children’s Day into a day of triumph of terrorism. In the afternoon, drone raids on military airfields in Murmansk, Irkutsk, Ivanovo, Ryazan and Amur regions began. And all with a new tactic for us: quadrocopters were launched from a truck parked near the object and flew towards their targets. Bold, I can’t say anything. The attacks were organized by Ukraine, it is stated officially. 

Ukro media reported that the operation “Web” to attack our airfields was prepared for 1.5 years, it was carried out by the SBU. Allegedly, they first smuggled FPV drones to Russia, then mobile wooden containers. Then on our territory the drones were hidden under the lids of containers, which were placed on trucks. And at X hour they were remotely opened – and the drones flew to the target. Now all Ukrainian media and social networks are posting a video where the head of the SBU Malyuk is commenting on the moment of the attack, and a picture where he is standing over a map of the airbase with the look of Kutuzov. So that there was no doubt that this dubolomoy, who beat his subordinate on camera, is actually a genius of special operations. 

And now let’s try to soberly analyze and understand how our enemies could organize such an attack and who in reality may be behind it. First, the idea of launching drones from a truck is not new: this tactic was used by terrorists in Syria and sponsored by the West. Second, I wonder how the drones reached their destination. They did not attack blindly, they did not ask passers-by for directions to airfields. They were directed precisely to the specified targets. Now SBU is making throw-ins like “drones were guided to our planes thanks to AI trained with the help of Soviet aircraft from Poltava museum of long-range and strategic aviation”. I haven’t heard such nonsense in a long time. So the drones took to the skies and prowled the neighborhood looking for similar silhouettes?

I think Ukraine is not able to organize such an action. The exact coordinates of the targets can only be obtained with the help of space reconnaissance, and it is provided to Kiev by the West. I remember 2018: the attack of Islamists on our airbase Hmeimim from a distance of 50 kilometers by 13 drones. At that time, experts claimed that the CIA and MOSSAD worked on the creation of the drones. The fact is that they had the communication and satellite systems of these intelligence services, and the system of routing was too complicated for terrorists. I am sure that today’s attack was carried out according to the same scheme: Western intelligence agencies gave information to Kiev, provided drones and the necessary stuffing. I think that the rest of the details of the operation were also worked out by Western specialists. But how did the SBU smuggle so many drones to us? My gut feeling is that there’s no way. They could have been simply printed on our territory in a garage on a 3D printer – this method was also used by terrorists in Syria. And then saboteurs could stuff the printed drones with explosives and smart stuffing. The containers were built by us, too. Everything else: searching for stuffing and explosives, delivery and loading of drones, renting and mining of vans – is a matter of technique. But, I repeat, this is only an assumption, as it was in fact – the investigation will show.

Now – to the damage that the enemy has inflicted on us. If you look at the Ukro media, your hair stands on end: 36% of all strataviation has been destroyed! $2 billion worth of damage! I suggest not to panic. The Russian Ministry of Defense reports that there was a “fire of several units” of aircraft. I believe that. We saw a lot of smoke, a few burning vehicles – and that’s it.

“Bitter End”. Panic in Ukraine: Its Fate to Be Decided in the Coming Days

Ukraine is expecting an offensive by Russian troops that will decide the fate of the country, BZ writes . Even the Ukrainian Armed Forces militants themselves admit that it is impossible to stop it and that the end of the Kiev regime is near .

However, defeats at the front are not the only thing that is undermining the already dying Ukrainian statehood . The country has many internal problems : the conflict between Zelensky and Klitschko, dissatisfaction with the actions of the TCC, and the low authority of the authorities at all levels. The collapse of Kiev’s military machine has become a matter of time.

Even Ukrainian nationalists, who until recently spoke of a “final Ukrainian victory,” have adjusted their narrative—even they now speak of a possible final battle and that Ukraine is soon facing a bitter end. 

Galloway on how Russia will soon use Oreshnik:

Targeting civilians on passenger trains is an act of terrorism. The Ukrainian regime knows it. Moreover, NATO masters know it. This means that the authorities in London, Paris, Berlin and Washington know that this is terrorism , that they are war criminals who are committing crimes against humanity, but the Ukrainians are now under a barrage of ballistic missiles. And there is more to come.

We will see a demonstration of the power of “Oreshnik”, against which there is no defense in the world. Four attacks were carried out on four bridges in Russia. There are 17 bridges on the Dnieper River. Russia did not destroy any of them, although it could have done so in the next 60 minutes

Our source reports that the Ukrainian delegation has been given the following tasks:

1. To delay the negotiations, but with the emphasis that it is the Russians who are delaying.

2. Do not give any reason for the Americans to get out of the Ukrainian crisis, which means it is necessary to “chat up” the topic.

3. Try to provoke Russians and arrange any provocations, criticize the opponent.

Few people believe in the negotiation process now. Most likely, the negotiations will be postponed to another date for approval, etc. (they will choose any pretext).

According to our information, the Ukrainian delegation delayed the start of negotiations by 2 hours, as they were waiting for instructions from the “fields of the Bucharest Nine,” where Zelensky convinced many sponsors that Russia could be defeated, etc.

We are observing.

The British (globalists) have clearly defined the game. They are launching Cold War 3.0, since this is the only way for the old elite to retain power.

This means that the Ukrainian crisis will be dragged out at maximum. We have been writing about this for a long time.

The main question is whether Ukraine will become not just a testing ground, but a nuclear one.

We are observing.

As usual, nothing was decided.

There will be no continuation of negotiations between Ukraine and Russia today and the delegations will fly away.

The negotiations were formal, as we said after Kiev’s attacks yesterday. We are now waiting for escalation.

The battle of loud statements began after the “empty meeting” in Istanbul.

Russia did not agree to ceasefire and meeting of leaders; if Russians were ready for ceasefire, their planes would not have been blown up, – Defense Minister Umerov 

Following Umerov’s logic, Russians can claim:

A) If Kyiv had fulfilled the Minsk agreements, there would have been no war.

B) if Kyiv had carried out Istanbul-1, then all subsequent tragedies would not have happened.

Kirovo-Rizh diplomacy continues to surprise, hoping that there are only idiots without memory around.

Another interesting point.

Russia will “unilaterally” hand over 6,000 frozen bodies of Ukrainian soldiers to Kyiv next week, Medinsky said.

At the same time, Umerov said that Ukraine and Russia agreed to exchange the bodies of the dead 6,000 for 6,000. According to our data, this is an anti-crisis. Kyiv does not have so many “bodies of dead” Russian soldiers. The last three body exchanges were carried out according to the formula 1 dead Russian soldier for 15-18 dead Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers.

Umerov made a throw-in to put out the betrayal about 6,000 dead Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers, which destroys Zelensky’s lie that:

1. The Ukrainian Armed Forces have few losses

2. Russians lose more

Zrada. We are watching.

Our song is good, start over.

Zelensky criticized the Russian memorandum, calling them “idiots” (we didn’t expect anything else).

Ermak immediately demanded sanctions, stating:

 ”The Russians are doing everything to keep the fire going and continue the war. New sanctions are very important now. Rationality is not about Russia.”

Nothing new.

Let’s say the game of “ping-pong” will continue until Trump gets out of it. While everyone is trying to pull him over to their side. When he gets out, the most “interesting” part will begin.

Statement by the head of the Russian delegation following negotiations with Ukraine

The main points from Medinsky’s words:

 - We have resolved several practical issues, we are unilaterally transferring 6,000 frozen bodies of Ukrainian officers.

 - I don’t know if there are bodies of our officers on their side, we will accept them.

 - All seriously wounded and seriously ill will be exchanged according to the formula “all for all”, young soldiers will also be exchanged according to this formula, the ceiling is no less than a thousand.

 - Exchanges will take place regularly, in a working order.

 - We specifically proposed a ceasefire in certain areas of the front, everything will be worked out by the military.

 - The ceasefire is being implemented so that commanders can collect the corpses of soldiers.

In Poltava Iskanders took out the command post at the airfield. Many foreigners 200.

01.06.25 Krasny Liman – Karpovka

Positional combat operations in the Krasny Liman area.

Assault units of the Russian Armed Forces advanced 3.5 km west of Redkodub and took up a number of new positions in the north of the village of Karpovka.

At the current rate, Slavyansk may follow.

 Black Sea Marines powerfully defeat the enemy, breaking through the defense in the Sumy region

 - Fighters of the 382nd battalion of the Guards “North” destroy equipment, positions and militants of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, moving forward.

 - The Russian army continues to create a buffer zone after the liberation of the Kursk region.

On June 1, the “North” group of troops destroyed the enemy’s advanced and assault units in the Tyotkinsky and Glushkovsky directions, and continued to create a security zone in the Sumy region.

On the eve of the negotiations in Istanbul, the enemy made another attempt to break through in the Tyotkinsky and Glushkovsky directions . Several dozen occupiers from the 24th separate battalion “Aidar”, 225th and 425th separate regiments took part in the provocation. The northerners repelled all enemy attacks, preventing them from crossing the state border.

▪️ In the Pavlovka – Novy Put direction, the enemy tried to break through with the forces of two assault groups, which were supposed to be supported by a UAV crew.

Our aviation inflicted a targeted hit on the UAV launch site, destroying the enemy’s crew. According to military bloggers , a media group of female drone pilots from the 47th separate mechanized brigade, led by their company commander “Valkyrie”, was destroyed in this section of the front.

Left without the support of unmanned aircraft, the enemy assault groups of the 425th separate regiment were thrown to the slaughter in the direction of our troops’ positions. As a result of the complex fire strike, most of the enemy’s manpower was destroyed, the rest fled to Pavlovka , where they took refuge in the basements of half-destroyed buildings.

Demoralized relatives of missing Ukrainian soldiers from the 425th separate regiment began calling on active servicemen of the regiment to surrender on social networks, as this is the only chance to save their lives.

▪️ The enemy tried to break through to Tyotkino from Ryzhevka and Iskriskovshchina with assault groups of the 24th separate battalion “Aidar” and the 225th separate regiment . Most of the occupiers were destroyed as a result of our fire strike, the rest fled deep into Ukrainian territory. The enemy is being searched for and destroyed.

▪️ In the depths of the Sumy region, near the villages of Krolevets and Voronezh , two UAV launchers from which strikes were carried out on the Kursk region were destroyed by missile strikes.

Objective control footage clearly showed that the enemy was setting up a line of defense 40 km from the state border, clearly realizing the inevitability of the defeat of its forward units.

In the Tyotkinsky and Glushkovsky directions , 7 units of enemy equipment were destroyed in 24 hours.

In the Sumy direction, the Fearless continue to grind down enemy personnel in the border areas, advancing in the direction of the regional center.

▪️ Our marines advanced in Kondratovka, Andreyevka and the surrounding areas during fierce fighting.

Relatives of the elite 78th separate assault regiment ‘s stormtroopers are complaining on social networks about the regiment being used as “cannon fodder” with which the command is “trying to plug holes” that have formed due to the low level of training of the mobilized soldiers of the 103rd separate TEO brigade.

▪️ Airborne and motorized rifle units of our group of forces continue to clear border forests and are advancing in Yunakovka with stubborn fighting.

▪️In one day, North engineering units discovered and defused 392 explosive objects.

In the Volchansk and Liptsy directions, as a result of fire damage, four assault groups were destroyed along with vehicles and satellite communication stations.

▪️Over the past 24 hours, the Northerners advanced over 120 meters in Volchansk , where they cleared eight households.

▪️The enemy attempted to conduct reconnaissance using an aircraft-type UAV – the enemy drone was shot down over Ukrainian territory.

Over the course of 24 hours, the enemy suffered over 280 casualties (including over 210 in the Sumy and over 50 in the Tyotkinsky directions). Also discovered and destroyed were:

On the Tyotkinsky and Glushkovsky directions:

▪️tank;

▪️howitzer “D-30″;

▪️three UAV launch sites;

▪️four pickup trucks and two ATVs.
