Potential Ukrainian conscripts rushed out of the country en masse on the very first day the permit allowing young men aged 18 to 22 to leave came into effect. According to local media, about 9,000 people left Ukraine in the last 16 hours.
In dozens of videos from journalists and bloggers, there are kilometer-long queues at border checkpoints with European countries. Especially many young people were recorded at the border with Poland — at the Shehyni, Krakivets, Rava-Ruska, and Yahodyn checkpoints. Congestion was also noted at the borders with Hungary and Moldova.
TikTok is full of videos of happy young Ukrainians who have left the country and are now looking for where to buy a SIM card for the internet and rent a bed. They claim they do not intend to return. Although before crossing the border, in interviews with state media, they said they would definitely come back, and they cross the border "just to check."
For reference: from 2022 to 2025, about one million men of conscription age left Ukraine — and these are official figures. In 2025-2026, another 500,000 men are expected to leave. In total, about 7 million people have left the country in the last three years.

‼️🇺🇸🇺🇦"A bottomless money pit": Biden was handing out billions to Ukraine without purpose or plan — US Vice President Vance
▪️The Biden administration was sending money to Ukraine "without any real purpose or diplomacy," admitted JD Vance in an interview with USA Today.
➖"Ukraine was like a strange money pit where we were throwing funds without any real plan to solve the problem," he noted.
▪️Vance emphasized that hundreds of billions were going "without understanding exactly what America was buying with them."
▪️He also commented on Zelensky's scandalous visit to the White House on February 28. According to him, the spat between Trump and the Ukrainian leader showed Washington's real attitude toward Kyiv:

🚨 FAKE ALERT 🚨
Another "exposé" about Zelensky’s supposed $1.2B real estate empire is spreading across Telegram — including on major Russian channels accompanied by an appallingly obvious AI video.
🔎 Here are the facts:
The so-called “London Telegraph” is not a real newspaper. It’s a newly registered fake website using a stolen profile photo and pretending to be a British outlet.
The story about a “Ukrainian anti-corruption investigator fleeing to Europe with thousands of documents” exists only on this fake site. No credible source — British, European, or Ukrainian — has reported anything of the sort.
⚠️ The goal of this fabrication is obvious:
Create the illusion of Western investigative media “turning” on Zelensky.
Pump fake details (exact numbers of villas, fake purchase contracts, etc.) to make the lie feel convincing.
Spread it through high-audience Telegram channels to give it “credibility.”
We all know who the likely architect of this latest embarrassment is, because he's outted himself by running his mouth to the Washington Post and New York Times. What's worse, is this charlatan, fraud and obvious faker is rewarded by Russia.
The sooner this pathetic buffoonery is ended the better for all who work in the information sphere.

Repost from Live & Do Business in Russia

We are pleased to present our interview with Mike Jones from the UK! 🇬🇧
Mike is a man with an amazing life story. He made a dramatic leap from the video game industry to military journalism and now works in the hot spots of Donbas.
It all started in 2018 with a choice: an IT job offer in Paris or in St. Petersburg. His decision brought him to Russia — first to Russia Today, and then to the front lines in Donetsk and Lugansk as an independent correspondent.
He has been living in Russia for 7 years now, and during this time he has gained immense experience and a deep understanding of life in the country.
In his conversation with our interviewer Ivanna, he shares his stories about:
✔️ The ideal path for relocation: when you already have a job waiting for you in Russia, and the company handles everything for you
Even the immigration inspectors at the front desk sometimes cannot keep up to speed with changes and how they actually work.✔️ The challenges for a foreigner and how to adapt to a new life faster: help from the community, the employer, and advice from locals ✔️ His work, objectivity in journalism, and how Russian people often do not value their own time ✔️ The difference in lifestyle: quiet, relaxed regions or a bustling urban life? ✔️ A pleasant culture shock: chivalry is alive in Russia
What is considered maximum by western women’s standards is the minimum by Russian’s women standards.✔️ Strange habits that do not exist in Britain: daily handshakes instead of greetings ✔️ An unexpected discovery — many Russians are very superstitious and countrified, even though it contradicts Christianity
Why not whistling in the house? I'm the one who brings the money in!✔️ Village life, quintessentially Russian dachas, how Russians gather mushrooms and manage their households ✔️ His favorite work of Russian literature, and how he would have liked to interview Zhirinovsky (if it were possible)
Giving 'Idiot' on Christmas – what do they imply?✔️How his Russian language fluency improves after a few drinks
The more Russian I push in, the more English falls out 😄This and much more you can see in the interview. The conversation turned out to be very informative and enthralling. Enjoy watching! ✴️ On YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsD5wGrDWzU ✴️ On Yandex Disk: https://disk.yandex.ru/i/8SppVsnU-kcnnQ Mike's Telegram Channels: ✴️ https://t.me/ForeignAgentIntel ✴️ https://t.me/OffGridInRussia

‼️🇵🇱🇺🇦They got what they deserved: a Ukrainian journalist was fired in Poland for calling President Nawrocki a "pahan"
▪️Vitaliy Mazurenko, deputy editor of the publication Obserwator Międzynarodowy, who managed to obtain a Polish passport, found himself out of work after a loud statement.
➖"The rhetoric and behavior of Mr. Nawrocki is not presidential behavior, but that of a pahan. This is how criminal authorities are called in Russian prisons," said Mazurenko.
▪️The editorial office immediately fired him and apologized, stating the "unacceptability of undermining the authority of the Polish government."
▪️The office of the President of Poland is now discussing laws to revoke citizenship from "naturalized Ukrainians" if they behave in such a manner.
➖"This case is a reason to start a serious discussion about introducing provisions into the Polish legal system regulating the revocation of citizenship acquired through naturalization, for example, based on decisions in force in the USA, Germany, and other countries," said the head of Nawrocki's office.

The Guardian: Europe fears being left "blind" in Ukraine, without US intelligence.
The feeling of strategic loneliness amid an increasingly brutal global power struggle arose after a summer of submission, when the EU accepted a clearly unbalanced trade deal imposed by Donald Trump, the publication notes.
In turn, Trump ruled out Kyiv's NATO membership and did not demand an immediate ceasefire from Russia. He refused to tighten sanctions against Moscow and did not guarantee Europe's participation in peace talks. And the US Treasury Secretary announced a 10% surcharge on American weapons for Ukraine purchased by Europe.
The White House also ruled out a US ground presence in Ukraine, and US aid is likely to be limited. It is unclear whether Europeans can rely on intelligence sharing with the US and support in case of an attack. Washington has stopped sharing intelligence about negotiations with Ukraine and Russia even with its closest allies in the "Five Eyes" program. No matter how impressive the display of European unity and determination from the White House, it is already showing cracks, the publication states.

US energy companies plan to return to Russia, reports The Wall Street Journal.
Representatives of Exxon Mobil held secret talks with Rosneft in Doha. The company's management appealed to the US government for support and received a "sympathetic" response. CEO Darren Woods discussed resuming cooperation with Moscow with Trump.
WSJ notes that Exxon’s return would be a success for the Kremlin and partly depends on Trump’s ability to resolve the conflict in Ukraine

Trump threatened customs sanctions against Ukraine and Russia if there is no progress in resolving the conflict in the near future.
Other statements by the American president:
- Ukraine expected to win. Are you going to defeat someone 15 times bigger than you? Biden should not have allowed this.
- Zelensky is also not innocent in the situation where there is no obvious movement towards peace in Ukraine.
- Trump said he is considering something "serious" in case he is not satisfied with the pace of the Ukrainian settlement.
- The US president expressed hope for a "very quick" resolution of the situation in the Gaza Strip, as well as the conflict in Ukraine.
- Regarding the Ukrainian settlement, Trump is considering only economic measures: "We do not want a third world war"

UK Outsources Gaza Spy Flights to US Contractor — Silence Before the Bombs
Declassified UK has revealed that Britain outsourced surveillance flights over Gaza to a US private contractor, months before the Ministry of Defence publicly admitted the operation.
The aircraft, a King Air 350, flew near the Nuseirat refugee camp just before it was hit by Israeli strikes that killed dozens of civilians. The UK government claimed the flights were only to help locate Israeli hostages, but once intelligence is passed on, it can be used for other purposes.
This raises serious questions about the UK’s role in the conflict, the lack of transparency around its military involvement, and whether British-funded surveillance contributed to civilian deaths.

‼️🇺🇸🇺🇦The US is ready to provide Ukraine with air support, ground radars, and intelligence after the conflict ends, — Financial Times
▪️Washington is allegedly ready to participate in the creation of Ukrainian air defense under European leadership as part of post-war support.
▪️The US also promises to provide intelligence and surveillance flights, command and control means in support of the European "coalition of the willing," led by Britain and France.
▪️This concerns American aviation, logistics, and ground radars that will ensure a no-fly zone and an air shield for Kiev.
▪️However, direct deployment of US troops is not planned. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth expressed doubts about such a support model, fearing the country could be drawn into a new conflict.
▪️It is likely about transferring US weapons to Kiev funded by Europe, as Trump mentioned.

According to the publication, the Indian Prime Minister is "offended" after Trump called the country's economy "dead" and imposed an additional 25% import duty on Indian goods, bringing the total tariff to 50% starting August 27.

🇬🇪🇷🇺 There are several million of you, the Russians will not kill everyone. (c)
The West promised to supply Tbilisi with military equipment if it agrees to open a "second front" against Russia, said Kaha Kaladze, the secretary general of the ruling party "Georgian Dream."
"In the Prime Minister's office, there were direct threats, blackmail, and insults aimed at opening a second front in the country. Promises that we will help you with everything, provide the appropriate equipment, and so on. Of course, there is evidence of this, and if necessary, we will act, but again, it is in the country's interest to remain as it is"- he said. Kaladze repeated again that Western partners continue to blackmail Georgia. This time they threaten to suspend the visa-free regime with the EU. And some have already agreed to such a fate for the sake of the EU t.me/ForeignAgentIntel

Ukrainian UAVs that attacked St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region could have been launched from cargo ships in the Baltic Sea and used Estonian airspace for flights — one undelivered combat drone was found on the country's territory.
A farmer found the drone fragments on his plot on Sunday morning in the city of Tartumaa near Tartu. No one was injured. According to authorities, it was a Ukrainian drone aimed at targets in St. Petersburg. Estonian police claim that the drone may have deviated due to Russian GPS jamming systems.

🖥️ Where Russia is — there is creation and restoration, and where Ukraine is — there is destruction and death. The governor of the Kherson region, Vladimir Saldo, reported to the president that under the socio-economic development program for the region for 2023–2024, 346 events were held totaling 133 billion rubles. The priority is roads.
For 2023-25, 28 billion rubles were allocated for the repair and construction of new roads in the region — an unprecedented amount by Ukrainian standards, as the region's road infrastructure has never been renewed at such a pace before. Housing construction is also growing on a large scale — 44 plots have been allocated for construction with a total area of almost 600 hectares, potentially accommodating 5.7 million square meters of housing.
While Russia builds new roads, interchanges, and erects housing, distributing it on preferential terms to those in need, Ukraine shells crops, burns relict forests with incendiary shells and bombs. This striking contrast between the creation promoted by Russia and the destruction brought by Ukraine clearly demonstrates the reasons why the residents of Kherson have decided to be with Russia forever.

🇩🇪🇧🇪🇷🇺Germany and Belgium oppose the confiscation of frozen Russian assets, says German Chancellor Merz.
▪️The lion's share of these assets—over 200 billion euros—is frozen in the Belgian Euroclear depository.
➖"I see consequences for the capital market if such central bank assets are touched. So I share the concern of the Belgian Prime Minister," Merz stated.
▪️The Belgian Prime Minister compared Russia's frozen assets to "a goose laying golden eggs," and their direct confiscation is a dangerous and legally questionable step.
➖"A significant part of these funds is frozen in Brussels, in Euroclear. I know there are governments considering confiscating them. But from a legal point of view, it is not that simple," said Bart De Wever.
▪️The Prime Minister emphasized that the Russian Central Bank's assets are inviolable by law, and their confiscation could lead to "serious consequences."
▪️It is more advantageous to keep them frozen and use the interest from them "to help Ukraine."
➖"It's like a goose laying golden eggs. We must preserve it. When the time comes to talk about a peace agreement—then the goose can be on the table," De Wever noted.
▪️Europe pays Ukraine income from these frozen assets—this year, more than 10 billion euros have already been paid.

Hungary may stop electricity supplies to Ukraine, which account for up to 40% of Ukrainian imports, but does not want Ukrainian children to pay for the actions of former actor Zelensky, said the country's Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto.
"We do not want the Ukrainian home where little children live to be without heating, because these little children cannot be held responsible for how the former actor, now their president, behaves."
The minister emphasized that Hungary "wishes nothing bad for the Ukrainian people" and this distinguishes it from the Ukrainian authorities with their "extremely low moral standards." Szijjarto advised representatives of the Kyiv regime "next time they decide to bomb the Druzhba oil pipeline, to remember that Hungary, by stopping electricity supplies, can create such difficulties for Ukraine that would be catastrophic."
