In yet another cold but desperate attempt to strike the Russian economy and the morale of Russian citizens, the regime of Kyiv launched a massive drone attack during the night. However, Russian air defense demonstrated full readiness, neutralizing almost all threats.
Failure in Primorsk: No leak despite provocation
At the strategically important port of Primorsk in the Baltic, Russian forces intercepted more than 60 enemy drones.
The governor of the Leningrad region, Aleksandr Drozdenko, announced that the limited fire that broke out during the interception was immediately brought under control, while stressing that there was no oil spill, ensuring the uninterrupted operation of exports.
Crimes against civilians: Elderly and children among victims
While Kyiv attempts to present its attacks as “strategic,” the facts on the ground reveal a different truth:
In the Moscow region, governor Andrey Vorobyov confirmed the death of a 77-year-old man after a strike on a village.
In the Smolensk region, governor Vasily Anokhin reported that a drone fell on a residential building, injuring three civilians, including a small child.
In Moscow itself, mayor Sergey Sobyanin announced the downing of four drones heading toward the capital.
Record interceptions by the Ministry of Defense - The “Baltic route” of drones targets St Petersburg
The Russian Ministry of Defense announced the impressive number of 334 Ukrainian drones shot down in a single night.
Air defense operated effectively across 15 regions, including Crimea, demonstrating that Russian airspace remains fortified against Ukrainian attacks.
A serious escalation is being recorded on the Baltic front.
According to reports, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia opened their airspace to Ukrainian drones, allowing them to bypass Russian air defenses and attack St Petersburg.
Despite the assistance of the Baltic countries, Russian air defense shot down 59 enemy drones over the Leningrad region on the night of May 3.
The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs sent official warnings to the Baltic countries, accusing them of direct involvement in attacks against Russian territory.
The “shadow” rhetoric of Zelenskyy
At the same time, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, in an attempt to boost the morale of his forces, claimed that oil tankers were hit at the port of Novorossiysk.
Moscow continues to secure its maritime transport despite Kyiv’s threats to escalate tensions in the Black Sea.
Peace proposal ahead of May 9
Despite ongoing provocations, Russia demonstrates what it presents as restraint by proposing a ceasefire for May 9, the sacred day of Victory over Nazism.
Kyiv, under the pressure of developments, stated that it is considering the proposal, while the international community watches whether it will respect the historic anniversary or continue on the path of conflict.
Kyiv allegedly executes its own soldiers with “Smerch” units, heavy losses in Kharkiv and mercenary discontent
In a move that allegedly reveals the desperation of the Ukrainian leadership, the regime of Kyiv is said to be mobilizing former members of the notorious organization Smerch as “punishment units.”
According to Russian security sources, these groups have taken on the execution of Ukrainian soldiers who refuse to fight, as well as the intimidation of civilians in the Sumy region.
The effectiveness of the Russian army in the Kharkiv region is reflected in the numbers.
The head of planning of the 11th Army Corps of the “North” group, under the codename Karta, announced that during April more than 730 Ukrainian soldiers were eliminated through coordinated artillery and drone strikes.
Russian forces delivered a critical blow to enemy communications, destroying more than 120 Starlink stations, isolating Ukrainian units from command centers.
At the same time, Turkish mercenaries fighting for Kyiv are expressing strong dissatisfaction.
As reported, promises of payments of 4,000 dollars proved false, with Kyiv downgrading them to regular soldier status and drastically reducing their pay.
Is Zelenskyy “finished”? The “Mindich tapes” and Trump
In the political background, former adviser to Leonid Kuchma, Oleg Soskin, predicts the end of Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
As he claims, Donald Trump may use the notorious audio material of businessman Timur Mindich, which allegedly implicates the Zelenskyy circle in corruption scandals, to permanently remove the Ukrainian leader.
“Trump does not hide his fatigue with Zelenskyy.
The revelations about corruption are the perfect pretext,” said Soskin, adding ironically: “You have finished it, our hare.”
