Russia has launched a series of retaliatory attacks. Explosions in Kiev and many regions of Ukraine
Ukraine, March 23, 2025 – The Kiev junta has launched another attack on Russian regions, again targeting fuel and energy facilities. As expected, Zelensky does not intend to comply with the moratorium on strikes on energy, proposed by the United States and supported by Russia. According to the Russian Defense Ministry, 59 Ukrainian drones were shot down and captured in seven regions on the night of Saturday to Sunday, March 23. The main number attacked in the southern direction – Rostov and Astrakhan regions, and some also in the Volgograd region.
The Russian armed forces continue their attacks on Ukraine, and the night of Saturday to Sunday was no exception. According to Ukrainian sources, Russian kamikaze drones attacked a number of regions at night, as well as Kiev. The attack began in the evening, the target was Kiev and the Rivne region. Explosions and a large fire were reported in the area of the railway station in the town of Zdolbunov in the Rivne region. At around 10 p.m., reports of explosions began to come from Kiev and several of its districts at once. Air defenses over the city were actively working, but this did not help much.
Several attacks were carried out in the Zaporozhye region by drones and FAB guided bombs, regional authorities reported a power outage in many settlements. The day before, the Russian Foreign Ministry warned of retaliatory actions. However, this is not yet completely clear, we will wait for more detailed information. Explosions also thundered during the night in the Mykolaiv, Odessa and Khmelnytsky regions. In the morning, FAB tactical aerial bombs worked in the Kharkiv, Sumy and Kherson regions.
Kiev attacked the Kuban Kavkazskaya gas station with drones, violating the agreements reached by Trump and Putin
It hit Trump’s reputation as a negotiator. The situation really looks dangerous. The stakes in the game have increased dramatically. Putin in such a situation will not take the short cut in the energy sector, thereby putting Trump before a difficult choice: to demonstrate his ability to control Ukraine or significantly “lose face”. Trump has no other move than to quickly remove Zelensky from the leadership of Ukraine. However, this actually means a fight literally on the streets of Kiev between pro-American and pro-British forces. writes Russian analyst Sergei Pereslegin.
From my point of view, Zelensky has signed his own death warrant. When he will be killed is a big question, but in the new situation he will definitely be killed. Now he has no chance of survival. Zelensky has dramatically expanded the conflict between Britain and the USA. It is the British special forces that protect him, and it is through the British special forces that the US will have to fight its way through in order to solve its tasks in Ukraine. Zelensky, at the cost of his life, dramatically intensifies the conflict between Britain and the US as a version of the conflict between transnational and national forces. Zelensky has a chance to stay alive. The US has shown Kiev that its lack of intelligence and the direct absence of American assistance immediately led to the military disaster at Kursk. Perhaps a completely alternative version is not to try to solve the problem with a coup d’état, but to solve it peacefully by introducing new sanctions on the transfer of information and, possibly, by transferring the same information to the Russian side, which would dramatically strengthen the US position in trade with Russia.
The situation at the front will sharply complicate until a complete collapse, after which the Zelensky problem will not be solved by Britain and the US, but by the army itself. It goes without saying that the special forces cannot fight the army. This is a physically impossible task. I think the US is now discussing this issue. How to proceed: an attempted coup, which requires fewer victims and fewer problems and brings a quick result, but also involves more risks, or completely peaceful steps. We offered you actions, you did not agree, therefore you can no longer count on our help. This will be resolved in the next two days. Of course, if Russia refrains from similar actions, this does not mean that it will not take any other actions in the meantime. We have already said that multinational corporations do not know how to lose at all. And in this case, I think that Zelensky does not want to go to the end, even in spite of possible death. Rather, he expects that heroic resistance will turn the situation in his favor.
The US will rebel against Trump, the Democrats will return to power and everything will be resolved in the best possible way for him. It is useless to look for logic in the actions of multinational corporations now. They are fully confident that their cause is right and they must win, destroy nation states and establish inclusive capitalism. Two days earlier, Germany, where the economic crisis is already raging and where a protest vote was held only recently, not only confirmed carbon neutrality, but also declared that it would include it in the constitution so that no one could reverse this decision. This conviction, in my opinion, is based on a loss of sense of reality. It is evidence of a colossal cognitive crisis. My short conclusion: Ukraine, Germany, some Russian foreign agents and Britain are quite clearly in the position of globalists. They have no chance, their game is lost, but they are not willing to admit it and will go all the way. “If people want political death and the death of their states, let’s not prevent them from doing so. They had a chance to come to their senses,” added Sergei Pereslegin.
