A former Massachusetts city councilor was charged with possession of child pornography in 2020. He skipped a court date in January 2024, flying to Istanbul. In February, he was reportedly in Avdiivka after joining the Russian army (with Pyatnashka).

There are like 15 people in America not in this photo who believe this stuff, but it's still so insanely funny that these people think that the DNR is even a tiny bit on the left. The entire state is ran by far-right ponzi scheme artists who immediately shut down labor unions.

Skies over Donetsk, crazy. I'd say this looks like CGI if it weren't filmed by lots of different people. Thermite, not phosphorus (thanks @obretix )

Head of the LNR posted a video about evacuation on the state news outlet, but the metadata shows that the file was created two days ago (Telegram retains metadata). Testing some other videos on the channel to see other creation dates, will post below.

📢Згідно із метаданими відео про "евакуацію" з очільником окупаційної адміністрації РФ на окупованій частині Луганщини Пасічником, його було записано щонайменше за 2 доби до публікації, 16.02.2022. Тобто ще до того, як за версією РФ "Україна почала атаку"

New on @bellingcat : an insane investigation that seems like it was plagiarized from @TheAmericansFX about a Russian spy who became a socialite in Naples, infiltrating social circles at the NATO's Allied Joint Force Command in Naples.

The IDF officer mentioned that there was "no shortage" of medical supplies when rifling through some objects in an MRI room. These are the medical supplies he was referring to: some medical masks and something like Icy-Hot.

Though, just based off the quick look we get in the video walkthrough, at least some of the supplies appear to be fairly basic. Visible is a box of medical masks and an "herbal pain relief ointment". The bag labels show they're from "Inter Medico For Medical Supplies".

Wow, a Belarusian group received data from some "неравнодушные люди" (i.e. hackers or internal leakers from SDEK) that identified the people who used this parcel delivery service to return loot back to Russia. Included are names, phone, and items delivered

Журналісти знайшли дані мародерів, які пересилали награбоване в РФ

Опозиційні журналісти зуміли дістати номери телефонів, військові частини та міста проживання російських окупантів, які оформляли доставку награбованих речей українців в Мозирі.

The additional documents also suggest the breach of American intelligence agencies could contain far more material than previously believed.

He literally posted a manifesto on the day he went on his shooting spree. He got swastika tattoos and proudly posted them. He posted tons of pictures of various Nazis saying that they were his "kind of people". He said he would "take my chances with the white supremacist".

Based on the shooter's posts, his primary interest seems to be heavy metal type music -- sprinkled in with assorted Nazi stuff, including a Hitler cartoon icon he appears especially proud of. No manifesto-style articulations of belief, but still very screwed up and depressing

Russia's progress in Ukraine is so slow that state TV reports on the war now feature street plans indicating which side controls *individual buildings* in Bakhmut I'm pretty sure this wasn't the aim when Putin launched his "special military operation" last year...

Scariest part of the Putin speech is when he recognized the LDNR borders according to their constitution -- the entire Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts. Ukraine controls like 70% of this area now. Stole this map from a Krasnodar news outlet to show the scale.
