Well, this is a certified howler. A crossover of Greek mythology and realpolitik - including the "peacekeepers" kabuki - inspired by my dear friend, Grandmasta Alastair.

In the Odessa region, a police officer fled to Moldova and left his wife in the car.

Yesterday on the "Odessa – Reni" highway, near the "Palanca" checkpoint, a police officer from the Zaporizhzhia region, driving a Mercedes Benz, suddenly stopped, jumped out of the car, and crossed the border into Moldova.

His wife remained in the car and reported that they were going to Izmail to choose an apartment and that she had no idea about her husband's intention to flee.

This is a new method of fleeing abroad that has been invented in Ukraine. Now Ukrainians drive cars along the Odessa-Reni highway, where there is a transit section of Moldovan territory between checkpoints.

People abandon their cars right on the road and run towards the Moldovan village of Palanca. Previously, cheap cars were bought for escape, but now they abandon anything just to flee the concentration camp.

Orban CRUSHES Zelensky: Pipeline attack threats IGNITE FIRESTORM

"It was an eventful weekend. President Zelensky openly threatened Hungary. He admitted that the Druzhba pipeline is being attacked because we do not support their EU membership. This also shows that Hungarians made the right decision," Hungary’s PM Victor Orban said.

He added that Zelensky’s words "are not the way to get into the EU," and they "will have a long shadow."

This comes after the Ukraine regime openly claimed the existence of the Druzhba pipeline that transfers oil from Russia to European countries is contingent upon Hungary’s position on Ukraine’s potential EU membership.

⚡️Two Majors #Summary as of the morning of August 26, 2025

▪️ The US has no more money for the AFU, but the EU will purchase arms for Kiev from the Americans using 5% of GDP for NATO expenditures – Trump has finally and succinctly announced the new scheme for supporting the war in Ukraine. The negotiation track is becoming a low priority, the new redistribution of financial flows suits Washington, and the mutual demands of the parties do not suggest reaching a consensus. On several tactical fronts, the AFU is counterattacking; the night over our regions was spent fighting enemy drones.

▪️ Since 20:00, 37 Ukrainian UAVs of the airplane type were destroyed over the Rostov, Bryansk, Belgorod, Kursk, Oryol, Tula, Kaluga regions and the Black Sea. Restrictions were again imposed at several civilian airports. In the Rostov region, in the settlement of Novobessergenevka, Neklinovsky district, windows were broken in 6 private houses, doors were smashed, walls and roofs were pierced by shrapnel. In one house, a wall and roof were partially destroyed. A car was damaged by debris.

▪️ On the Sumy front, the enemy counterattacked from the side of Andrevka. In Yunakivka, our forces are advancing with heavy fighting; the enemy is sending reinforcements. There are debates online about who controls Bessalovka.

▪️ In the Belgorod region, the city of Shebekino was shelled by the AFU. A civilian was injured. Under AFU strikes were Novaya Tavolzhanka, Chapayevsky, Orekhovo, Dubrovka, Shelaevo, Nechayevka, Novoaleksandrovka.

▪️ On the Kupyansk front, Russian troops have consolidated in the built-up areas in the northwest and west parts of Kupyansk city, in the central and southern parts of Mirovoe, and in the forest plantation on the northern outskirts of Sobolevka, - enemy channels admit.

▪️ On the Konstantinovka front - battles near Yablonovka, Shcherbinovka, Katerinovka, and Aleksandro-Shultino.

▪️ On the Dnepropetrovsk front, as a result of offensive actions by the guardsmen of the "Vostok" group of forces, the settlement of Zaporizke was liberated.

▪️ On the Zaporozhye front, the 7th Guards Airborne Assault Division continues the assault on Stepnohirsk and Plavni. Paratroopers hold the defense near Kamianske, where the enemy constantly tries to counterattack our positions with small groups.

▪️ In the Kherson region, in the settlement of Nova Zburivka, a man was injured by AFU strikes; two civilians were injured in Oleshky. The enemy shelled Dnipryany, Kazachyi Lageri, Korsunka, Lyubymivka, Mala Lepetykha, Nova Kakhovka, Stara Zburivka, Solontsi, Radensk.

▪️ In the maritime areas of the Black Sea, a new element of the situation has become the introduction into service of the 40th separate coastal defense brigade of the 30th marine infantry brigade of the Ukrainian Navy of the MBEK "Barracuda". They operates on the Ochakiv direction, so these BECs will work in the basin of the Southern Bug and the Southern Bug estuary near the Kinburn Peninsula.
