❗️** A double terrorist attack against law enforcement planned by Ukrainian special services has been prevented in Pyatigorsk; two Russian women have been detained.** First, a girl born in 2006 was detained as she approached one of the buildings of law enforcement agencies in Pyatigorsk; a homemade explosive device with a power of approximately 2 kg in TNT equivalent was found in her backpack. After this, heightened security measures were introduced and a search began for possible accomplices of the detainee. As a result, at the same time near the site of the terrorist attack, a Russian citizen born in 1979 was detained, who intended on the instructions of Ukrainian curators to deliver a similar device to the location of the first explosion at the moment when the investigative-operational group was working. The detainees gave confessional testimony that they acted on the assignment of representatives of Ukrainian special services, not assuming that they would be used as suicide terrorists. Criminal cases have been opened under Part 3 of Article 30, Part 2 of Article 205 of the Russian Criminal Code (attempted commission of a terrorist act), Part 3 of Article 222 of the Russian Criminal Code (illegal transportation of ammunition) and Part 1 of Article 223.1 of the Russian Criminal Code (illegal manufacture of explosive devices). 🎯 @opersvodki 💬 [OS in MAX](https://max.ru/opersvodki)

5/ “The channel of the Ukrainian Armed Forces unit officially expressed gratitude to the idiot for the information, which contributed to the strike on the TES-Terminal-1 fuel terminal in Kerch. I think the relevant services in Voronezh deserve a personal "thank you".
3/ Three days later, Ukrainian forces struck the Kerch oil terminal's fuel depot, causing a major fire. An official Ukrainian Telegram channel trolled Fighterbomber by crediting the warblogger for the strike (it's unlikely that he had any influence on it). https://t.co/zWYkQGiCVM
1/ The Russian warblogger 'Fighterbomber', a retired Russian air force pilot, is taking heavy flak from other warbloggers for disclosing a fuel delivery to Crimea that the Ukrainians promptly blew up. "Go fuck yourself. Preferably holding hands," he responds. ⬇️ https://t.co/iDHwNEkoJ2

The main competitor has already dropped out of the race — the race could turn into a "coronation" of **Andy Burnham**. In **Europe**, the course has been set toward militarization.

In the **SVO** zone, the "South" grouping is hacking through AFU defenses in **Konstantinovka**, driving out the enemy house by house.

📝**Chronicle of the Special Military Operation** 📝 __For June 22, 2026__ 🧨RF Armed Forces units have again delivered a series of strikes in the front-line zone, concentrating on the destruction of enemy targets in the near rear. In several regions of so-called Ukraine, power supply disruptions have been noted; an oil depot has been struck in **Dnipropetrovsk** **oblast**. Ukrainian formations have again delivered a massive drone strike against targets in **Crimea**, with the majority intercepted by air defense. Several dozen aircraft were launched toward **Moscow**; in **Dubna** the target was the **Space Communications Center**. In **Voronezh**, one of the enterprises came under rocket and air strike; five people were killed, city authorities reported several dozen people seeking medical assistance. ➡️On the **Lyman** **direction**, Russian units of the "West" grouping are advancing within the city boundaries, expanding the zone of control on the southern outskirts. The enemy maintains high activity in the **Redkodub** area, although it has lost two more crossings over the **Oskol** river in the **Yaremovka** and **Oskol** areas. ➡️On the **Konstantinovsk** **direction**, units of the "South" grouping are clearing the outskirts of **Konstantinovka**, maintaining encirclement of AFU units blocked in the city center.

🟡 Situation in the Lyman area ℹ️ Recently, there has been much discussion and questions about Lyman. In particular, there are reports of strikes recorded in the eastern part of the city, which logically suggests that the Russians are infiltrating there. Increased activity against the city has been ongoing for some time, and given the successes of the Muscovites in Kostiantynivka, Lyman is becoming an increasingly important target. And numerical superiority combined with low density of defensive positions is causing enemy infiltrations, which is hardly news anymore. 🏹 However, it is worth noting certain details that will help better understand the situation. The largest zone of enemy activity and control is the red and gray zone of the Sribna forestry. They move there, hide, entrench, and from there attempt to push deeper. In Lyman itself, as before, there is ongoing activity and reports of strikes in the eastern outskirts, which is marked in yellow and has a corresponding gray zone. There were also reports of strikes in the blue zone, but they are not yet systematic, so there is no reason for a gray zone yet. Ukrainian pilots are doing well with the disposal of Russian garbage that is being sent to slaughter. 🔴 However, the situation in Yampil and Ozerne is extremely concerning. We hope that higher command will pay attention to this sector and take appropriate action so that we do not lose a bunch of people for nothing. 📍 We are monitoring the situation on this sector and will definitely keep you informed of all changes!
