“Discrediting the Russian army” because of hair color

It became known that a protocol was drawn up against a resident of Moscow for “discrediting the army of the Russian Federation”.

All this happened because of yellow-blue-green hair, the color of which resembles the flag of Ukraine.

It is known that on April 27, Muscovite Stanislav Netesov was attacked at the metro station in the center of Moscow.

Unknown robbers stole his phone and knocked out his tooth.

The injured guy went to the police to report the beating and theft, but ran into new problems.

The police felt that the color of his hair “refers to the flag of Ukraine” and “discredits the Russian army.”

In addition, the victim was served with a summons and threatened that he would “kiss his native land in the trenches”.

Hij heeft anders wel groot gelijk. Dat China moet stoppen met het van twee walletjes proberen te eten. Want dat zal inderdaad niet in het voordeel zijn van hun relatie met Europe.

Op dit ogenblik is Rusland de grote vijand van het westen. Niet alleen door hun aanvalsoorlog op Europees grondgebied maar ook door hun retoriek over het westen. En Blinken kan hierover prima zijn mening verkondigen.

Als de oorlog nog lang doorgaat zal China op den duur gewoon een keus moeten maken. Of een goede relatie met het westen, of een goede relatie met Rusland. En niet alleen China.

Ukraine's gas storage facilities all fit despite Russia targeting them since March – Naftogaz head
Oleksiy Chernyshov called on the European Union to help Ukraine with the protection of underground gas storage facilities

Russian missile strikes on gas storage facilities in western Ukraine could not stop their work, Oleksiy Chernyshov, the head of the board of Naftogaz of Ukraine, said In an interview with the Financial Times, noting that "technologically, we're all fit."

"We have managed to repair the [damaged surface] equipment and we fulfil our obligations [to our customers]" after the attacks," Chernyshov said.

The reservoirs where Ukraine stores gas are located at a depth of three kilometers, but Russia is attacking the equipment with which the gas is pumped and lifted.

Chernyshov said that the European Union could help Ukraine protect these facilities, given that it is in its own interests. Ukrainian storage played an important role in the EU's energy security last year, enabling European countries to use less gas from their storage and rely more on Ukraine.

And so at the very time that China is seeking better relations with countries in Europe, it is also fueling the greatest challenge to European security since the end of the cold war.
U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken

quote:

US secretary of state Antony Blinken has criticised China for supplying Russia’s defence industry, saying the Chinese can’t “have it both ways” in seeking an end to the conflict and better relations between China and Europe, while also providing goods that are building what Blinken termed “the greatest challenge to European security since the end of the cold war”.

Speaking at a World Economic Forum gathering in Saudi Arabia, Blinken said

We have engaged with China from the start of the Russian aggression against Ukraine, and urged them not to provide Russia with arms, with weapons that would fuel the aggression.

And I think it’s fair to say that China has not directly supplied Russia with weapons, with missiles, with munitions. Iran is doing it. North Korea is doing it.

However, what China is doing, is providing invaluable support to Russia’s defence industrial base that’s helping Russia deal with the massive pressure that’s been exerted through sanctions, through export controls and other measures.

If you look at what Russia has done over the last year, in terms of its production of munitions, missiles, tanks and armoured vehicles, it has produced them at a faster pace than at any time in its modern history, including during the cold war as the Soviet Union.

How has it been able to do that? Because it is getting massive inputs of machine tools, micro electronics, optics, mostly coming from China. Now these are dual-use items, but we know very clearly where so many of them are going. And this poses two problems.

It is enabling Russia to continue the aggression against Ukraine. So it’s perpetuating a war that China says it would like to see come to an end. As all of us would.

But second, it’s also enabling Russia to rebuild a defence industrial base that countries throughout Europe are deeply concerned will be turned against them after Ukraine is done.

And so at the very time that China is seeking better relations with countries in Europe, it is also fueling the greatest challenge to European security since the end of the cold war. And as I shared with my Chinese colleagues, you can’t have it both ways.”

Situation is difficult on Kherson Oblast's left bank, but defenders still holding a bridgehead
On the morning of April 30, the enemy military twice tried to storm the island of Nestryha, but retreated with losses, Speaker Dmytro Pletenchuk said

Russia attacked the bridgehead held by the Ukrainian military on the east bank of Kherson Oblast three times during the day, but without success, Dmytro Pletenchuk, head of the Strategic Communications Center of the Southern Defense Forces, said on the telethon on the morning of April 30.

Currently the situation on the east bank is difficult primarily because "in fact, the marines are holding on autonomously, because the Dnipro River is between us and, of course, logistics there are very difficult."

"As well as rotation, as well as evacuation, and other issues. However, they continue to hold their positions, despite the strength of the enemy, which is superior in number. Having established themselves on this bridgehead, the guys are holding on," said Pletenchuk.

Also, on the morning of April 30, the Russian military twice tried to storm the island of Nestryha, but retreated with losses.

"This is the last island from Veletenske. This is the area of the settlements of Veletenske and Kizomys. Not far from them. And in fact, this is the last island before the mouth of the river, the last island on the west bank. Therefore, of course, it is important for us to close this area from possible saboteurs, or from possible enemy exits," said Pletenchuk.

On April 30, the Ukrainian military established control over the island of Nestryha near Kherson.

Finnair suspends flights to Tartu for 1 month to seek GPS jamming solution
Finnish airline Finnair on Monday said it will suspend its daily flights to Tartu from April 29-May 31 to try and find a solution that does not require a GPS signal to land at the airport.

Last week, two Finnair flights had to divert back to Helsinki after GPS interference prevented them from landing at the airport in south Estonia. The approach methods currently used at Tartu Airport are based on a GPS signal.

Finnair said it will suspend its flights to Tartu for one month, during which time the aim is to build approach methods at Tartu Airport that enable a safe and smooth operation of flights without a GPS signal.

Finnair is the only airline operating international flights to Tartu. The route reopened at the end of March for the first time since the coronavirus pandemic.

The company said passengers with bookings will be notified.

Russian organised crime leader and convicted murderer leaves prison to serve in Ukraine
A notorious Russian organised crime leader has left a penal colony where he was serving a 24-year sentence for murder to fight in Ukraine, Russian news outlet Chita.ru reported Tuesday.

Dmitry Vedernikov, who began his sentence in 2011, is known to be the leader of an organised crime group that was active in the Zabaykalsky region in Russia’s Far East from the early 1990s until 2010. According to the court, the group specialised in stealing foreign cars and demanding a ransom. Vedernikov was found guilty of 52 criminal charges, including murder.

Vedernikov had asked to sign a contract with the Russian military once before, in October, but was turned down because of his age. He was 52.

He appealed to the Zabaykalsky region governor Alexander Osipov, writing:

“Nobody knows the price of freedom like a convict. They’ll only take me prisoner if I’m unconscious, because even if I run out of bullets, I’ll continue fighting with my teeth.”

He also argued that he should be allowed to go to Ukraine to fight because he had already experienced war-like conditions, having previously been shot at.

In March, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed into law legislation granting combatants immunity for the majority of crimes, including murder, theft and rape.

UN confirms Russia’s use of missiles from the DPRK
The UN confirms that Russia struck Kharkiv with a North Korean-made missile.

United Nations sanctions monitors confirmed this, Reuters reports.

The wreckage of the missile that was found after the attack on the Ukrainian city on January 2 this year was from a North Korean Hwasong-11 series ballistic missile.

Russia’s use of these weapons is a direct violation of Security Council sanctions that impose an arms embargo on North Korea.

Three sanctions monitors traveled to Ukraine earlier this month to inspect the debris and found no evidence that the missile was made by Russia.

Norway Accelerating Ukraine Aid
Norway's Prime Minister said Tuesday his country would accelerate its military and civilian aid for Ukraine for this year by seven billion kroner to a total of 22 billion kroner (�2 billion).

The additional funds will be brought forward from a 75 billion kroner package the Scandinavian country has pledged to Ukraine covering 2023 to 2027 for military and civilian aid, which remains unchanged.

"It's a matter of life and death for the people of Ukraine", Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store told a press conference.

"It is also a question of security and stability in Europe, and therefore also for Norway", he said following a meeting with opposition leaders to secure a broad consensus on the aid.

Of the seven billion brought forward, six will go military aid, primarily anti-air defence and ammunition -- which are desperately needed by Ukraine as it faces a Russian offensive in the east.

Norway will contribute to the financing of German and Czech initiatives in these two areas, Store said, while stressing that Russia was deliberately bombing "hospitals, residential areas and power stations".

Of the 75 billion package dedicated to Ukraine, Norway will have used some 39.5 billion kroner by the end of 2024.

Norway -- a major oil and gas producer that has benefited greatly from surging prices following Russia's invasion of Ukraine -- is one of the main contributors to Ukraine, according to a ranking by the Kiel Institute.

Novosibirsk residents complain about curbs painted in Ukraine flag colours

Residents of Novosibirsk, a city in western Siberia, have complained after pavement curbs in the city were recently painted in yellow and blue, the colours of the Ukrainian flag.

Head of the property management company, Vladimir Simonov, assured residents in a statement that the paint was already being covered up and that the curb would now be red and blue, Russian news outlet Podyom reported Monday.

According to Simonov, the unpatriotic display was merely accidental as the worker tasked with painting the curb “just so happened” to pick yellow and blue.

Regardless, the company apologised for the incident, with Simonov remarking that he was “personally against” the yellow and blue curbs.

This follows a string of cases in which Russian citizens have been reported and charged for displaying colours closely associated with Ukraine. A Moscow resident was fined for “discrediting the Russian army” and handed a military summons on Sunday for dyeing his hair yellow and blue.

A resident of the northwestern Russian city of Vologda was reported to the police in April for posting an “enemy symbol” in a picture which showed her in a yellow jacket against a blue sky background.

Moscow Court Charges 5 Russians With ‘Terrorism’ Over Helicopter Torching

Five Russians accused of setting fire to a helicopter on behalf of Ukraine appeared before a Moscow court on Tuesday and were charged with “terrorism.”

The Ukrainian Defense Ministry’s intelligence agency HUR published a video late last week of what it claimed was a Ka-32 transportation helicopter being set ablaze at a Moscow airport.

“The aggressor state used the destroyed unit of aviation equipment […] to support the operations of the Russian occupying army,” the HUR said in a statement at the time.
