Almost Maidan 2.0 in Ukrainian cities — mass protests due to the new law limiting the powers of NABU. This is the only body that investigated corruption in the government. Now Kyiv faces the loss of Western support and weapons. Rallies took place in Kyiv, Lviv, Odesa, Sumy, and Dnipro. Despite the curfew starting at midnight, protesters near the Verkhovna Rada building are not dispersing. They chant the phrase "Zelya is a devil!". The trouble started with Zelensky — on Tuesday he signed bill No. 12414, according to which the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAP) are now dependent on the decisions of the Prosecutor General. NABU stated that this makes the head of SAP a nominal figure, and NABU loses its independence and turns into a subdivision of the Prosecutor General's Office. Protesters believe that corruption will now engulf the country, and the law will return it "to the times of Yanukovych". NATO has expressed concern about the situation, and the West is already threatening to withdraw support from Ukraine. The nuance: NABU was created at the request of Western allies of Ukraine to support the country's new government. Among the dissatisfied was also noticed the mayor of the Ukrainian capital — Vitali Klitschko t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

The Ukrainian Armed Forces lost their first Mirage 2000 fighter jet — one of the three handed over to them by France in February this year. According to the official version, it was due to an engine failure. According to unofficial reports, it was after being hit by their own air defense missile. According to the military department, the accident occurred on July 22 in the sky over Volyn. The plane lost control, the pilot managed to eject and survive. However, eyewitnesses on the ground report that the fighter jet crashed after a missile attack. Whose missile it was — Russian Armed Forces or Ukrainian air defense — is still unknown. The Mirage 2000 are French fighter jets; Paris announced their transfer to Ukraine on February 6. Initially, there were only three of them. These are aircraft from the 1980s, upgraded in the 2000s. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Sabotage, Sanctions, and Spin Two weeks of drone chaos—first in St. Petersburg, now Moscow. Flights grounded, signals jammed, payment systems disrupted. Western-backed psychological warfare in full swing. This isn’t about “winning,” it’s about wearing Russia down. Meanwhile, NATO’s talking heads are hyping up war with China and Russia “within 18 months.” Ukraine’s new PM says corruption is “exaggerated” while Zelensky dismantles anti-corruption bodies and begs for more IMF cash. Even Western media is struggling to spin it now. And Trump? Still whispering support for more arms—but might meet Putin and Xi in Beijing this September. The empire is fraying. Russia is not.

"Your country is going down, Russia is rising": American journalist Tucker Carlson believes that Russian President Vladimir Putin has done a tremendous job for Russia and has elevated it. He expressed this opinion in an interview with the deputy editor-in-chief of the newspaper Bild, Paul Ronzheimer. "I am not defending Putin, who, in my opinion, has done a tremendous job for Russia—a job that is much better than [that done by] any German politician. That's for sure. Your country is going down, Russia is rising. <...> You should be furious at your own politicians. Instead, you are furious at Putin, which makes me laugh," said Tucker Carlson. Carlson pointed out that former German Chancellor Angela Merkel "literally destroyed" Germany by allowing a huge number of migrants into the country. "She is a criminal," the journalist stated. He noted that if one ignores media reports and politicians' statements and focuses on truly important issues for the people, Germans will understand that their enemy is not Vladimir Putin. t.me/ForeignAgentIntel
