Ukrainian Sabotage in Russia Continues Apace

  • Ukraine hacked into Russia's strategic aircraft manufacturer Tupolev. The HUR accessed over 4.4 GB of internal data. Said an official: "The significance of the data obtained cannot be overestimated. There is nothing secret left in Tupolev's activities for the HUR. The result will obviously be noticeable both on the ground and in the sky."
  • An IED damaged a rail line in Voronezh Oblast and disrupted the travel of at least 19 passenger and commercial trains.
  • A fire broke out at the Avtodizel motor plant 174 miles northeast of Moscow, one of Russia's largest producers of diesel engines and a supplier to the Russian military. The blaze engulfed a 400-square-meter workshop where 12-cylinder engines are manufactured. It took firefighters more than 90 minutes to extinguish the open flames. No casualties were reported. This is the second major fire at a Russian engine plant in two days. On 2 Jun, a blast and fire tore through a workshop at the Zavolzhsky Motor Plant.

    The superb Ukrainian espionage services continue to deliver blow after blow against the Kremlin. The Tupolev hack is perfectly timed with the surprise attack against Russia's strategic bomber fleet and is a bonanza for NATO. The HUR will share this treasure trove of information with the UK, Germany, France, and Canada. Recall that last year Canada donated 10,500 Browning Hi-Power 9mm pistols to Ukraine. If I were an engineer at Tupolev, I would be concerned about a potential 9mm shampoo treatment in the future. Below, Ukrainian cyber operatives replaced the Tupolev website's homepage with an image of an owl clutching a Russian aircraft.

    #1: Hi American Unity: Indeed it is. Putin is getting flummoxed, as is the Dotard. And Trumpf's other cohort-- Felon Musk-- has deteriorated into an enemy. I am enjoying my Pinot Grigio, native reservation cigarette, and Schubert as I type this. Ahhh.
