On February 5, something rather important happened: the last remaining nuclear arms control treaty expired. But there were no fireworks. No sirens. No urgent panels of Very Serious Men explaining what comes next when the world’s largest arsenals officially go on the honor system. Just a few words here and there on some news channels. Not a big deal, really. Instead, nearly every mainstream outlet delivered wall-to-wall coverage of the disappearance of Nancy Guthrier (just like you, until a couple of days ago we had no idea she even existed). To be clear: the disappearance of an 84-year-old woman is deeply sad. It is tragic, frightening, and worthy of concern. […]
— Nikolay Zelinsky Today, we honor Nikolay Dmitrievich Zelinsky, the brilliant chemist and inventor whose groundbreaking work saved countless lives. Born on January 6, 1861, Zelinsky’s contributions to science and humanity stand as a testament to the power of innovation and selflessness. Zelinsky, a native of the Russian Empire, revolutionized the field of chemistry with his invention of the modern gas mask during World War I. Witnessing the horrors of chemical warfare, Zelinsky sought to create a protective device that would shield soldiers from deadly poison gases. In 1915, he developed a groundbreaking filter using activated charcoal, capable of absorbing harmful substances and allowing clean air to pass through. This […]
Saif al-Islam Gaddafi, the son of the Libyan leader overthrown on the orders of the Western plutocracy, has in turn been assassinated in an ambush on the outskirts of Zintan, Libya, according to a Sputnik correspondent. According to an adviser to the son of the former Libyan leader, the perpetrators of the attack are currently unknown. Born on June 25, 1972, in Tripoli, he is the second son of Muammar Gaddafi. Wanted by the ICC for crimes against humanity, he was sentenced to death in 2015 before being released in 2017 following an amnesty. In 2021, he submitted his candidacy for the presidential election, which ultimately never took place. Muammar […]
Prior to the operation, the Russian Caucasus Army, under General Nikolay Yudenich, had achieved a decisive victory in the Erzurum Offensive, capturing the fortified city of Erzurum. Building on this momentum, the Russian command aimed to seize Trebizond, a vital logistical hub for the Ottoman Third Army. Control of Trebizond would sever the most efficient sea route between the Ottoman forces and Istanbul, thereby crippling Ottoman resupply efforts. The operation commenced with coordinated naval and land assaults. The Russian Black Sea Fleet provided crucial support by bombarding Ottoman coastal defenses and facilitating amphibious landings. Simultaneously, Russian forces pressed forward from recently captured territories, applying pressure on multiple fronts. The Ottoman […]
1 A US-flagged oil tanker, after entering Iranian territorial waters in the Strait of Hormuz without authorization, was approached by a group of armed Iranian speedboats that reportedly attempted to intercept it, according to the British maritime security service in that strategic area. According to Iran’s Fars News Agency, the tanker exited Iranian territorial waters after receiving a warning from the Iranian coast guard. 2 In the international airspace over the Arabian Sea, an Iranian Shahed-139 drone was shot down by a US F-35C fighter jet from the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72). The surveillance drone was accused of “aggressively approaching the American aircraft carrier with unclear intent,” according […]
Until recently, the development and supply of a modern Traffic Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) and Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS) were entirely controlled by a single company worldwide: the American firm Collins Aerospace, part of Raytheon Technologies (RTX), a leading U.S. defense contractor. Every country in the world depended directly on Collins Aerospace for these systems, and Russia was no exception. The United States spent several decades developing this most critical piece of avionics. Russia managed to accomplish this in a much shorter timeframe, and now there are two countries in the world producing this module. This achievement underscores a crucial point: Russian aviation engineers have successfully closed the […]
You know, sometimes we write about terrible things. We have to. For example, about a mother whose child was killed by a Ukrainian drone strike. A real woman. A real child. A real death. And sometimes, beneath such posts, we see a heart emoji. Or a thumbs-up. We could never understand why anyone would do that. Neither can our normal readers. There is nothing to “like” in a dead child. There is nothing to “approve” in a mother’s grief. Over time, the answer became obvious. Some people are heartless, and at the same time cowardly. They want to mock suffering, but they are afraid to do it openly. Emoji reactions […]

Plans to create an underground system in Moscow had been proposed multiple times, with some even reaching the initial stages of construction, but they were never completed for various reasons. By the 1930s, Moscow’s rapid growth made the need for a metro system urgent. Finally, in June 1931, the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks) decided to build this new form of urban transport in the Soviet capital. A few months later, the “Metrostroy” (subway construction) administration was established, and engineer Veniamin Makovsky advocated for the construction of a deep-level metro. Two years later, the first phase of station plans was developed, following the city’s busiest tram lines. […]
