Russians Addressed Putin: This Can't Be Stopped Now! The Civil War in Russia Has Begun!

Against the backdrop of a total crisis, a Russian woman recorded a desperate video appeal to the dictator. You promised us safety and a normal life. The girl harshly accused the Kremlin of simply abandoning people to their fate. But in reality, there are empty gas stations, fear, inspections, lines, and complete uncertainty. People don't know how to fuel their cars, how to get to the hospital, or what will happen tomorrow. While propaganda on television tells fairy tales about everything being under control, the peninsula has plunged into a real collapse. And there are already dozens, if not hundreds, of such appeals. This mass outburst of indignation only confirms that the point of no return has already been passed and Putin's regime is rapidly falling apart from within. It has begun. A civil war is breaking out in Russia. The country is engulfed in total chaos, fuel riots, and mass raids. And the Kremlin continues to lie about having full control. Bloody fights at gas stations from Moscow to Irkutsk. Meanwhile, in Rostov and Penza, military police storm clubs at night and are rounding up men en masse for the front. At the same time, the Russian government is urgently closing railway borders with Europe, while Zid patriots are panicking over the complete collapse of the budget. The country is on the brink of internal explosion. All the details about this right now. Hello, this is Ukraine Today and I am Darina Hutsa-Kalo and we are getting started. A fuel collapse has completely engulfed the oil superpower, turning the everyday lives of Russians into a real hell. The governor of the Nizhny Novgorod region has officially acknowledged a severe fuel shortage. Over the past three days, the supply of gasoline 92 and 95 at gas stations in the Nizhny Novgorod region has decreased by 25%. At the same time, demand for it has increased by 60 to 70%. A situation of acute shortage has developed in the gasoline market, caused by reduced supply and panic-driven demand. In Moscow, kilometer-long lines at gas stations have led to record 10-point traffic jams. Even at night, major gas station chains have imposed strict limits on refueling a single vehicle and the fuel imports from Belarus, which Minsk urgently redirected to help its ally, turned out to be just a drop in the ocean. The entire volume from Cherenevo is enough for just a little more than one day of Russian demand. Even in distant Irkutsk, which literally sits on oil, people are waiting for gasoline for hours. People who aren't interested in politics, what are you interested in right now? TV series or cooking? Here I am standing in line for gasoline for the second hour. I'm sure that half the people in this line weren't interested in politics. But now politics has come into our home. Even though Irkutsk is far from big politics and is an oil-rich Irkutsk region. And I'm curious, where did our gasoline go? Did you take it away, big politicians? It seems that the status of being outside politics no longer works, because now the war has directly affected every car owner in the URF. Everyday hopelessness instantly turned into real hunger games with elements of brutal violence. Large-scale clashes have begun at Russian gas stations. What are you doing? You... 2L, 243L, the most valuable. Are you for real? I'm a judge. Oh, angry drivers standing in lines are going at each other. They fight wall to wall, staging brutal brawls, throwing punches, kicking and even reaching for weapons. Russian society, which for years believed propaganda due to the basic lack of conditions for a normal life, is becoming increasingly savage and embittered, turning every gas station into a potential hotspot on the internal front. He is currently filling up the tank, while people chatter in the background, sending the material. Any kind of guys? Teregaterioga station. Look, they're beating up the old man. Look, look, I'm filming everything right now. Call the police immediately, Alina. Please call the police right away. I'm filming the police, I'm filming all of this. But that's not all yet. Against the backdrop of fuel riots, the Kremlin has effectively launched a new stage of forced mobilization. After all, the situation for the occupiers at the front is getting increasingly bogged down. The Russian army is suffering colossal losses and the flow of those willing to sign contracts has almost dried up. To fill the personnel gaps, the military police have unleashed real night-time terror. In Rostov-on-Don, security forces carried out mass raids and harsh detentions of men. Similar night-time raids have also been reported in Penza. Experts are openly warning that this will continue until the state Duma elections. The authorities are still trying to act covertly, but after the elections, the roundups could become as harsh and open as possible. And at this very moment, Moscow, without any explanation, has officially suspended traffic through key railway checkpoints on the border with Finland, Estonia and Latvia. Is the Kremlin really systematically building a new Iron Curtain, trying to lock potential conscripts inside the country for good? To temporarily suspend, starting from July 1, 2026, the movement of people, vehicles, goods and cargo through railway checkpoints across the state border of the Russian Federation at certain sections of the state border of the Russian Federation, according to the list provided in the appendix. This is stated in the text of the document. The largest number of checkpoints will be closed on the border with Finland. The railway hubs of Vyborg, Verksilia, Lyutia, St. Petersburg-Finlyansky and Svyatogorsk have been blocked. The final cord of the impending collapse of Putin's empire has become a complete economic meltdown which can no longer be concealed even by the most loyal Z-propagandists. The well-known Z-blogger Maxim Kalashnikov erupted with a panicked statement, claiming that Russia has found itself at a critical and extremely dangerous threshold due to a massive budget deficit, which there is simply no way left to cover. As you understand, freezing the war, stopping the war along the current front line, that is without achieving the goal of capturing the remaining part of Donetsk region, would be a massive political blow to the central figure. Nevertheless, such situations, a time of difficult decisions, of tough choices, are approaching. Why? Because our budget deficit is growing and there is nothing to cover it with. And as you can imagine, with such a burden, with the budget growing at this rate and with only half a year gone, by the end of the year we could find ourselves unable to finance the war or the security forces. The first days of the 40-day campaign announced by Zelensky have already plunged Russia's military machine into total chaos. While Putin talks about imaginary stability, a wave of explosions and disasters has reached the very heart of Russia's defence industry. And if the beginning of this countdown has already proven so painful, what will be left of the Kremlin by the 40th day? All the details? Watch right now. The countdown has begun. Putin has been given 40 days. After Volodymyr Zelensky's statement about a special operation to influence Russia, the Kremlin could hardly have expected such an explosive start. Because while Russian propaganda once again talks about reliable protection and complete control over the situation, explosions thundered in Volgograd at one of the most important enterprises of Russia's military-industrial complex. And this was not just a warehouse with canned goods or an abandoned base on the outskirts. The Titan barricades plant, a true pride of the Russian defence industry, came under attack. It was here that components for missile systems were produced – Iskander, Yars, Topol-M, and even for the much-hyped Kremlin Poseidon. In other words, we're talking about an enterprise that works directly for the Russian missile program. The most interesting thing is that the facility is located about 400 km from the Ukrainian border. This creates a rather awkward situation for the Russian leadership. On the one hand, Putin assures the public that all threats are supposedly under control. On the other hand, Ukrainian strikes are already reaching enterprises that Moscow until recently considered to be deep in the rear. According to available information, the strike hit three production workshops. One of them sustained serious damage. That was where the mechanical assembly unit was located, where key components for Russian missile systems were assembled. So one of the sections was affected, without which the entire production chain starts to operate much more slowly. It's especially amusing. The situation looks particularly ironic against the backdrop of constant Kremlin statements that sanctions don't work and that Russia's defense industry is only gaining momentum. It turned out that imported high-tech equipment was actively used in the production of Russian weapons, but now the problem isn't even about the origin of the machines. The problem is that the workshop where they were located will have to be restored after a very unpleasant encounter with Ukrainian weaponry strikes. And here arises the main question. If this is only the beginning of that very 40-day campaign, what will happen next? After all, the Kremlin is already forced to patch holes on several fronts at once. Somewhere oil depots are burning, elsewhere airports are shutting down because of drones, and in other places there are problems with logistics and fuel. And now even strategic defense enterprises are starting to appear in emergency incident reports. The Russian system is gradually shifting into a mode of continuous crisis response. Not planning, not development, not preparing new offensives, but rather constantly putting out fires, both literally and figuratively. And every new strike adds yet another urgent problem for Moscow to solve. For the Kremlin, this is especially painful because such strikes also destroy the main myth of Russian propaganda. The myth of absolute rear-area security. Because when explosions occur hundreds of kilometers from the border, when enterprises involved in the missile program come under attack and strategic factories are forced to halt operations, it becomes increasingly difficult to talk about stability. So while Moscow is busy counting the percentage of successfully intercepted targets, it seems a completely different countdown has begun on the Ukrainian calendar. And every day of this campaign may bring new surprises for the Kremlin. And most importantly, it serves as a reminder to the Russian leadership of a simple truth. The longer the war drags on, the closer its consequences come to the very heart of the Russian military machine. And it seems that the problems of the Russian defense industry now begin not only from the skies, but also within their own factories. While the Kremlin boasts about record-breaking drone production rates in Alabuga itself, the main assembly center for Russian Shahids, events may have occurred there that Moscow is unlikely to be pleased about. According to the resistance movement, Ukrainian agents have been carrying out sabotage activities over the past month directly at the facility where strike drones for the Russian army are assembled. And we're not talking about loud explosions or fires. A much more dangerous scenario for the occupiers could be when problems begin after the drone has already left the factory gates. It is reported that dozens of surprises have been planted in the new batches of drones, which are capable of disabling the equipment during use. For the Russian military, this is essentially the worst possible scenario. After all, it's one thing when a drone fails to take off at the testing range, and quite another when a malfunction occurs during combat use, when it is assigned a specific mission and a certain result is expected from it. For years, the Kremlin has been assuring the public that Alabuga has become a true war conveyor belt, capable of churning out drones by the thousands. But now a very unpleasant question arises. If saboteurs really manage to infiltrate one of the most important elements of the Russian war machine, then how reliable is this entire conveyor belt? And that's not all. According to information under, data was also obtained about the personnel involved in the production of drones for the Russian army. And this means that the problems may extend far beyond just a few defective products. After all, when the enemy obtains information about production chains and key personnel, the entire system comes under threat. While the Russian authorities are preparing to repel attacks from drones, missiles and naval unmanned vehicles, problems may arise where they are least expected. Right inside their own factories. And if previously in Moscow they were afraid of strikes on defense enterprises, now they also have to think about what is happening behind their fences. Very difficult times are coming for the Russian war machine. Some factories are suffering from strikes, others from logistical problems, and now there are reports that even finished products can bring unpleasant surprises to their own customers. And if this information is confirmed, it will be one of the most painful signals for the Kremlin. Problems are beginning to accumulate not only at the front, but also in the very heart of the Russian military-industrial complex. Moscow is no longer safe. Putin's illusory world has been completely shattered by harsh reality. The Russian capital is rapidly turning into a front-line zone, with regular drone incursions, burning military facilities and night-time explosions. Right above residential neighborhoods. While the Kremlin frantically tries to pretend that everything is under control, the war mercilessly bursts into the homes of Muscovites, finally burning away the dictator's televised fairy tales. You can see all the details about this right now. Moscow can no longer pretend that the war is somewhere far away. What for years was shown to Russians on television as someone else's misfortune has suddenly started knocking on the windows of the country's most expensive neighborhoods. The capital, which was used to living with the confidence that it was protected. The most advanced air defense systems and an endless military budget have collided with a very unpleasant reality. Drones keep coming again and again. And residents are waking up more and more often not to alarm clocks, but to explosions and rumbling in the sky. What especially worries Muscovites is that, at the critical moment, there is silence. The sirens are silent and no warnings are issued. People only find out about the danger when they hear the distinctive sound of engines over their homes, or when anti-aircraft systems start firing in the sky. And this is where the main question arises. If the capital of the largest country in the world is under attack, why hasn't the government explained even the most basic safety rules to its citizens? It turned out that Moscow, which for decades was presented as the center of a mighty superpower, is absolutely unprepared for life under an aerial threat. People are searching for shelter maps on their own, exchanging addresses in chats and forums, calling officials, and trying to figure out where to run in case of a new attack. But instead of clear answers, they often encounter a bureaucratic maze. In some districts, information is concealed. In others, people are advised to come to the administration offices in person. It gives the impression that finding a safe place in the capital is much harder than finding Meanwhile, the very sky over Moscow is increasingly becoming a source of fear. The Russian air defense system, which for years was showcased at parades as a symbol of invincibility, is now forced to operate directly over residential neighborhoods. Debris falls to the ground, explosions ring out near homes, and residents watch all of this from their balconies and courtyards. This is especially striking against the backdrop of years of Kremlin statements about the absolute safety of the capital. What causes even more outrage is the authorities' response after the attacks. Instead of explaining to people how to act during danger, officials and security agencies focus on fighting information. Posts, photos, and videos of the strikes become a bigger irritant for the system than the strikes themselves. It seems that the main task is not to protect the population, but to maintain an image of calm on television screens. Against this backdrop, the gap between ordinary Muscovites and the upper echelons of Russian power becomes especially noticeable. While some lead their children to bathrooms away from the windows in the middle of the night and try to figure out where to find shelter, others continue to live behind the high fences of closed residences. For ordinary residents, the attacks have become a part of everyday life. For the political elite, they still remain something distant, existing only in reports and press releases. At the same time, Moscow presents a strange contrast. In one part of the city, people read news about new strikes, check neighbors' chats, and listen closely to every unusual sound. In another, social events, loud presentations, and parties continue. As if someone is stubbornly trying to prove that nothing is happening. But each new attack shatters this illusion. More and more strongly. Today, the main fear of Muscovites is not the drones themselves. What frightens them most is the realization that the system, which for years promised absolute protection, turned out to be unprepared for the test. And every time new explosions occur in the capital, more and more people keep asking If the authorities cannot guarantee safety in the very heart of Russia, then how truthful were all the other promises made by the Kremlin? And in the Kremlin, they haven't even changed their tune. There it seems there exists some kind of parallel reality where oil depots aren't burning, there are no fuel shortages, and drones reaching the Russian capital have no impact whatsoever. This is exactly the picture that Putin painted in yet another conversation with the court propagandist Zarubin. While the whole country witnesses regular strikes on strategic targets, the president of Russia assures everyone that all means of defense are in place, the system is working, and the problems are not critical. If you translate from Kremlin-speak into plain language, it goes something like this. There's not enough gasoline, but there's no shortage. Facilities are burning, but there is almost no damage. Drones are coming in, but they have no effect at all. It seems that the main task of the Russian authorities today is not to solve the problem, but to convince the population that the problem doesn't exist. The Kremlin is even trying to present the fuel crisis as an element of a Ukrainian information operation. Lines at gas stations are not a shortage. Interruptions in supply are not a problem. Strikes on the energy infrastructure? Nothing serious. Everything is operating stably and with a large safety margin. At least that's what they say. However, the longer this performance goes on, the harder it becomes to hide the obvious. If all the defense systems are working flawlessly, then why are Moscow residents waking up to explosions? If the strikes don't matter, then why does the government react so nervously to every video of an impact? If the fuel situation is under control, then why even bother publicly explaining to the population that the reserves will last only a few more days? But the most ambitious part of the speech wasn't even the stories about the economy or air defense. Putin once again started talking about major offensives, future conquests, and victories. From the Kremlin offices, everything looks extremely simple. There are just a few kilometers left to one city, even fewer to another, and soon, supposedly, another line of Ukrainian defense will collapse. There is only one inconvenient detail in these statements. Most of these kinds of forecasts have been repeated by the Russian leadership for many months, and in some cases, for years. The more difficulties accumulate within Russia itself, the more grandiose the promises become on television screens. While Muscovites are searching for bomb shelters, they are being told stories about the future capture of new territories. While the regions are facing fuel shortages, they are being told that the enemy will soon be surrounded. While drones are reaching strategic targets, they are being shown a picture of absolute control. And this is precisely the main paradox of Russia today. The real country is increasingly confronted with the consequences of the war. The television country continues to live in a world of endless victories, breakthroughs, and grandiose plans. And the wider the gap grows between these two realities, the louder the Kremlin has to repeat its favorite phrase, everything is under control. And while Russian propaganda in... While on TV, they talk about a safe peninsula, occupied Crimea is being urgently prepared for a harsh evacuation. The occupation authorities are frantically drafting emergency scenarios, while the entire peninsula is rapidly turning into a deadly trap for Russians. All the details of this looming catastrophe, watch next. Crimea, on the way out in the occupation administrations of the peninsula, suddenly, very alarming forecasts began to appear. According to reports from the underground, officials in Kerch and Feodosia received an urgent order. By a specified date, they are to remove the most valuable documents, archives, and equipment. Russia claimed it was going to stay on the peninsula forever, so why the rush to pack up folders, servers, and office equipment? The most interesting thing is that after this order appeared, People who just yesterday were actively running the occupation structures, suddenly started taking sick leave, going on vacation, and leaving Crimea. And not just anywhere, but heading toward the Krasnodar region. All of this is very reminiscent of a familiar scenario. First, the authorities talk about having complete control over the situation, then they switch their headquarters to round-the-clock operations, after which they start removing documents and looking for backup escape routes. And then it usually turns out that the situation is not as stable as they claimed on television. It's especially tense. These events are unfolding against the backdrop of regular strikes on military facilities in Crimea. It seems that even the local collaborators no longer have much faith in the supposedly all-powerful Russian air defense. After a series of Ukrainian strikes on logistics in the south, Russia has encountered a new problem. Delivering cargo to the occupied peninsula has not just become difficult, it has become extremely expensive. According to journalists, transporting goods to Crimea now costs several times more than covering a similar distance within Russia itself. The worst part for the occupiers isn't even the prices, but the mood of the carriers. More and more drivers are simply refusing to take routes to Crimea. Some companies are reducing the number of trips, while others are closing this route altogether. The reason is simple, to make money. Everyone wants to earn, but fewer and fewer are willing to become the next target on the road. And while Crimean officials are packing up their documents, Russian military forces have suddenly started rehearsing a very interesting scenario. Exercises were held under the telling name Crimean Routine. According to the scenario, Russian troops were preparing for a landing of Ukrainian forces in Crimea. Moreover, the scenario was so serious that on the maps, Ukrainian forces were advancing from several directions at once. They came across the Black Sea, actively used naval drones, unmanned aerial vehicles, long-range weapons, and modern reconnaissance systems. In other words, the occupiers were modelling exactly the course of events that, until recently, Russian propaganda had described as completely unrealistic. Notably, in these exercises, Russian command posts mostly acted defensively. They did not plan new offensives, did not draw arrows toward Odessa or Mykolaiv, and did not prepare for attacks. Instead of another push to the west, they were building defensive lines around Sevastopol, Kerch, and northern Crimea. It seems that in the Kremlin, they are increasingly thinking not about how to seize new territories, but about how to hold on to what still remains under their control. And while Russian military forces are repelling an imaginary Ukrainian landing on their maps, reality is presenting them with a real problem. The electricity is disappearing. After strikes on key substations, part of the occupied Crimea suddenly plunged into darkness. Entire districts of the peninsula were left without power, and along with the electricity, the internet also began to disappear. Important nodes of the power system, which supply a significant part of the peninsula, were hit. As a result, problems arose simultaneously in several cities and districts. And this once again demonstrates the main weakness of the occupation model. Crimea appears strong only as long as its infrastructure operates without interruption. If just a few key elements are knocked out, the entire system starts to fail. Most interestingly, the problems were not limited to electricity. Along with it, the internet also began to disappear. Local residents report disruptions in the operation of services, stores and order pick-up points. And while Kremlin officials talk about the full integration of Crimea into Russia, the peninsula increasingly resembles a remote outpost living in a state of constant emergencies and restrictions. All the recent events suddenly come together into a single picture. First, there were strikes on logistics and a sharp increase in transportation costs to the peninsula. Then came orders to evacuate documents from the occupation administrations. Next, the headquarters were switched to an enhanced operational mode. And now there are also drills to repel a Ukrainian landing. If you look at all this separately, you might call it a coincidence. But when there are too many such coincidences, they start to look like preparations for a very specific scenario. It seems that Moscow's greatest fear today is not just strikes on military targets. The main threat for the Kremlin is the prospect that Crimea will gradually lose its connection to Russian logistics. And it will turn into an isolated bridgehead that will have to be held at any cost. And history knows many examples when such territories sooner or later became not a symbol of strength, but a source of constant problems. And while Moscow continues to repeat the mantra about Russian Crimea being forever on the very peninsula itself, there are more and more signs that it is beginning to turn into a suitcase without a handle for the Kremlin. It's hard to carry, scary to abandon, but pretending that nothing is happening is becoming increasingly difficult. And what do you think about the latest events?
