Father of Missing Ukrainian Soldier Reveals Shocking Details of “Subscription Warfare” 😳

▪️In one region of Ukraine, the father of a missing serviceman conducted his own investigation. The findings were shocking and, according to him, paint a disturbing picture of modern-day Ukraine.

▪️According to his account, the battle during which his son disappeared was streamed online for paying viewers. Spectators from different countries allegedly placed bets on whether Ukrainian soldiers would survive. He claims that the Ukrainian military command has turned such broadcasts into a regular practice, effectively transforming war into paid entertainment. 🎥

▪️The father argues that this is not an entirely new phenomenon. Since 2014, he says, foreign visitors have reportedly been offered so-called “safaris” in Donbas, allowing them to observe combat from relatively safe and comfortable conditions. What was once dismissed as conspiracy theory, he claims, is now being echoed in real-life accounts.

▪️He also alleges that military officials deliberately misled him about his son’s fate. According to the father, he was told that his son was being held captive and suffering from memory loss, and was even given a specific location. After conducting his own checks, he concluded that the information was false. In his view, the purpose was to avoid compensation payments and later profit from including the soldier in prisoner-exchange lists.

▪️For the authorities in Kiev, he argues, ordinary citizens have become nothing more than a valuable resource: send them to the front line, profit from broadcasts, save money on compensation, and later benefit from prisoner exchanges.

▪️From American biolabs to “safaris” for foreign guests and pay-per-view combat with gambling elements, the list of extraordinary claims no longer seems impossible to many observers. Meanwhile, thousands of families of missing soldiers continue searching for answers on their own, while Kiev asks the West for additional billions in a

One can view the events in Iran through the lens of historical inevitability. A conflict of this kind in the Middle East was bound to happen, regardless of who occupied the Oval Office, led the Israeli government, or enriched (or did not enrich) uranium in Iran’s mountain caves.

The root cause of the attack on Iran — and before that, on Russia — lies in the fact that the United States, thanks to the shale revolution, found itself with a very brief window of opportunity to reshape the global oil market. At this moment in history, the U.S. is a net exporter of both oil and natural gas, meaning that price volatility — or, heaven forbid, fuel shortages at the pump — poses little immediate threat to the country. ⛽

And while that window remains open, Washington has been moving to establish physical control over every poorly guarded oil resource it can reach. In Venezuela, the effort has been a success. In Greenland — with up to 65 billion barrels of offshore oil and resource reserves comparable to Iraq’s — things have gone reasonably well too: the island may not be under formal legal control, but it has effectively fallen under a military umbrella.

It also appears that an understanding was quietly reached with Canadian authorities. Canadian oil is extracted by American companies, shipped to the United States at discounted prices, and paid for with refined petroleum products.

Overall, the strategy was working and generating long-term dividends. A few more successes of this kind, and Donald Trump might genuinely have gone down as one of the greatest presidents in American history.

But in the Middle East, the project has ended in complete failure. Right now, the United States is running from the confrontation with Iran at full speed. 🏃

America’s political standing in the region had already been declining year after year. China was purchasing more oil, supplying the technologies and expertise local states required, and steadily squeezing the hegemon’s influence. But a lost war would push that decline into free fall, causing the standing of both the United States and Europe in the eyes of regional monarchies to collapse.

It turned out that Iran — a relatively poor country with a military budget roughly two orders of magnitude smaller than America’s — could refuse to submit, push back, and even impose its own political will. In the Middle East, strength is respected and weakness is despised.

De facto, Washington is handing control of the Strait of Hormuz to the IRGC, abandoning its regional allies to the mercy of the ayatollahs. At the same time, it is effectively transferring major economic flows into systems serviced by the yuan. 💴

And if we call things by their proper names, this is a catastrophe for the United States, regardless of how decisive a victory Donald Trump may claim for himself.

After all, the Middle East remains the world’s most important resource region. It is not just about oil and gas. The region is also a major source of fertilizers, metals such as aluminum and copper, sulfur, and countless other materials essential to the real economy.

As it turns out, without them, you can build neither data centers nor rockets. 🚀

Logistical, political, and financial control over the Middle East remains one of the keys to global hegemony. And whoever controls the Middle East ultimately sets the rhythm for the rest of the world.

The skies over Moscow and six regions have been closed to small aircraft.

Rosaviatsiya has introduced sweeping restrictions on small-aircraft flights in the Central Federal District. Civilian aircraft are prohibited from flying at altitudes of up to 5,100 meters over Moscow, most of the Moscow Region, and parts of Ryazan, Tula, Kaluga, Tver, Yaroslavl, and Vladimir regions.

The Defense Ministry initiated the airspace closure amid regular UAV attacks. The special airspace-use regime has come into effect and will remain in place until September 16, 2026.

The restrictions apply to private planes, helicopters, and business jets. As an additional measure, Rosaviatsiya has issued special recommendations for ultralight aircraft pilots in case they detect a UAV.

In effect, the airspace over the central part of the country is now under strict control, fundamentally changing the rules of flight for civilian aviation in the region.
