In Crimea, girls poisoned 46 Russian military personnel and shot FSB officers: a Hollywood story appeared on the Internet
In Crimea, still controlled by the Russians, they found two girls suspected of killing dozens of invaders and tried to detain them, but the saboteurs shot back and killed several employees of the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation, who were sent for detention.

The saboteurs were in Yalta in one of the private houses, they tried to detain them a few days ago, but they failed – the girls managed to escape, the Kremlin Snuff Box writes on Telegram, citing information, in particular, from sources in the FSB.

“…The suspects in the death of 46 fighters resisted; unfortunately, it was not possible to detain them… The saboteurs turned out to be well armed and (we did not expect this!) Well-prepared. Plus, someone could have warned them about our visit. As soon as the special forces came to arrest them, they opened fire on them with pistols and automatic weapons.” the Russian special service allegedly said.

The channel also says that the invaders only managed to fire a few shots in response, and then the girls fled in a car. Journalists learned that the saboteur’s car was abandoned on the outskirts of Yalta.

“We don’t know where the saboteurs are now. Three FSB officers were killed as a result of the shooting. Two more were wounded, one of them seriously. One of the criminals may also have been wounded, but it is unlikely that this wound was serious (she fled the scene of the shooting on her own). The search for the saboteurs continues,” the sources added.

Crimea news in focus – worth reading today
At the beginning of December last year, the media learned that on the Crimean Peninsula, girls handed over gifts to the military unit of the Russian invaders, and thanks to this, dozens of invaders were poisoned.

Russia's Nuclear Deterrent Command Center Imperiled by Winter Freeze—Report
A Russian nuclear deterrent command center in Moscow has been imperiled by power outages that have impacted more than one-quarter of the region's cities amid freezing temperatures, a Russian Telegram channel has reported.

The VChK-OGPU outlet, which purports to have inside information from Russian security forces, reported that the 820th Main Center for Missile Attack Warnings—part of the Russian Space Forces, a branch of the country's Aerospace Forces—near Solnechnogorsk in Moscow is without power.

It serves as the space forces early warning network against potential ballistic missile attacks.

The development comes as Russians are reported to be suffering from power outages in their homes in the Moscow region caused by technical issues at plants amid subzero temperatures.

On January 4, a heating main burst at the Klimovsk Specialized Ammunition Plant in the town of Podolsk, which is about 30 miles south of central Moscow. Since then, tens of thousands of Russians are reported to have no heating in their homes.

Affected areas include the cities of Khimki, Balashikha, Lobnya, Lyubertsy, Podolsk, Chekhov and Naro-Fominsk, a map published by a Russian Telegram channel and shared on other social media sites shows.

Other Russian media outlets reported that in Moscow, residents of Balashikha, Elektrostal, Solnechnogorsk, Dmitrov, Domodedovo, Troitsk, Taldom, Orekhovo-Zuyevo, Krasnogorsk, Pushkino, Ramenskoye, Voskresensk, Losino-Petrovsky and Selyatino are also without power.

The Telegram channel said that at the 820th Main Center for Missile Attack Warnings, "the crew...is on duty around the clock."

"It is here that the decision on a retaliatory nuclear strike is executed," the channel said.

Newsweek could not independently verify the report and has reached out to the Russian Defense Ministry by email for comment.

Power outages have also been reported in Russia's second-largest city, St. Petersburg, in the country's western Voronezh region, in the southwest city of Volgograd, and in Rostov, which borders Ukraine, a country that Russia has been at war with since February 24, 2022.

On Sunday, two shopping malls in St. Petersburg were forced to close because of problems with light and heating, reported local news outlet 78.ru. Hundreds of other homes in the city have had no electricity, water or heating for days amid temperatures of -25 C (-13 F).

Russian authorities have also been forced to compensate passengers of a train that ran from Samara to St. Petersburg (a 20-hour journey) without heating during -30 C (-22 F) temperatures. Videos circulating on social media showed carriage windows frozen over. A passenger also said the toilet didn't work during the trip because of frozen pipes.

Russians living in ‘unfriendly’ countries could lose right to vote in presidential elections
Russian citizens living in countries designated “unfriendly to Russia” may be about to lose the chance to vote in forthcoming elections, the business daily Vedomosti reported on Monday.

The proposal, which is currently under consideration according to a Vedomosti source, would close voting stations at Russian embassies and consulates abroad ahead of the 2024 presidential race. It may not ultimately extend to all Russian consulates in the 49 countries Moscow has deemed “unfriendly”, but it is likely to impact a “significant number” of them.

When asked why the Russian government was considering the proposal at all, officials involved in the discussions cited the shortage of consular workers and concerns about “voter safety” given that voters sometimes have to queue up outside embassies and could face harassment.

In the 2018 presidential election, 474,000 Russians voted at 394 polling stations abroad. In 2024, those numbers are expected to be much higher, following the exodus of hundreds of thousands of Russians — many of whom oppose Putin’s regime — in the wake of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

Voting stations abroad must be registered by 24 January, according to Russian Central Election Commission member Pavel Andreyev. According to another source in Russia’s Foreign Ministry, a final decision on the issue is expected by the end of the month.

Mystery fire breaks out at Putin family home near Moscow, Russia

FIRE FURY Shocking moment mystery fire breaks out at Putin family home near Moscow as ‘sabotage’ suspected
This is the second property linked to the Kremlin top that was destroyed in recent events

THIS is the moment a mystery fire broke out at Vladimir Putin's family home near Moscow.

The property, which belongs to Putin's first cousin, was reduced to ashes after flames engulfed the entire building in Ryazan, 125 miles southeast of the capital.

The home was currently occupied by Roman Putin, 45, who is sanctioned by the West for links to the autocrat.

Roman is the son of Putin’s first cousin Igor, who officially owned the place.

His son was at the property when the blaze began but escaped without injury.

The cause of the fire is still under investigation by the cops amid suspicions of sabotage.

This is the second property with links to Roman and the Kremlin top that was destroyed in recent events.

Earlier a hotel where he had offices in remote Novy Urengoy was destroyed in successive arson attacks by unknown people, causing �8 million damage.

The incident came after Roman was linked to a scheme to host two waves of refugees from the Donbas area of eastern Ukraine, according to reports.

He offered to personally fund a third wave of 500 refugees in support of Putin's invasion, which may have triggered the arson attacks.

Reports say law enforcement has identified arson as the cause but made no progress in bringing the perpetrators to justice.

However, it is unclear if the arson was linked to opposition to Putin or his war against Ukraine.

Following the Kremlin top's footsteps, Roman began his career in secret services, serving in the FSB.

He eventually switched to local government before founding a company called Putin Consulting to trade on the famous family name.

The controversial businessman also founded the People Against Corruption party, but has been unsuccessful in getting a seat in the parliament

By November, capacity had risen again, though assessments differ. European Commissioner for the Internal Market Thierry Breton suggested that Europe could now make some 400,000 rounds annually. Estonia’s Pevkur, speaking at a November media roundtable, put the figure between 600,000 and 700,000—and said it would reach one million rounds in 2024.

Het bericht is wat vreemd, alsof de EU er 1 miljoen produceert en ze dan ineens naar Oekra�ne stuurt. Dit komt ook niet overeen met wat de beste man gezegd heeft, het gaat namelijk om de jaarproductie.

Het is de vraag hoeveel shells Oekra�ne eigenlijk denkt nodig te hebben op dagbasis en hoeveel Oekra�ne er zelf kan produceren. In totaal zul je er toch eerder 3 miljoen per jaar nodig hebben denk ik (8200 / dag).
