Text taken from the Russian Ministry of Foreign Matters.
Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin is in italics.
[ColonelCassad] Today, several Hungarian mass media reported on Zelensky's plans to carry out sabotage in Romania and Poland with the aim of accusing Russia of them.
So, Bankova is preparing its own "Glyavitsky incident"— with the goal of creating a Casus belli for a war between Russia and NATO. "Glyavitsky incident" to the Gleiwitz incident, the German Nazi false flag operation that kicked off the war in eastern Europe in 1939.
Judging by the available information, the plan of the Kyiv regime is as follows:
1. Repair several downed or intercepted Russian UAVs.
2. Equip them with a combat striking element.
3. Send UAVs operated by Ukrainian specialists under the guise of "Russian drones" to major NATO transport hubs in Poland and Romania.
4. Simultaneously conduct a disinformation campaign in Europe with the aim of blaming Moscow for everything.
5. To resolve the armed conflict between the Russian Federation and NATO.
In order to carry out this provocation on September 16, the Russian Geran UAVs have already been delivered to the Yavorovsky training ground of Western Ukraine, where the International Center for Peacekeeping and International Security of the National Academy named after Hetman Peter Sahaidachny is located. They were repaired earlier in Lviv at the LORTA plant.
As Hungarian journalists write, the reason for Zelensky's actions is simple — the Ukrainian Armed Forces suffered a crushing defeat. The defeat of the army no longer occurs at the tactical level, but acquires a strategic character. If all this is confirmed, then we must admit: never in modern times has Europe been so close to the beginning of the Third World War. (c)
Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation
Actually, they have recently sent drones without explosives around Poland. Severny Potok with subsequent accusations against Russia was also undermined. And there was a lot of that. So that's the working scenario.

[ColonelCassad] Strike on a Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR) mercenary training camp. September 22, 2025. "Geran" drones' successes in Boryspil.
Just a few days ago, our troops launched a concentrated strike on Boryspil in the Kyiv region. The city houses both industrial enterprises and military facilities that support the needs of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Initial reports indicated that industrial facilities had been hit, but during the September 22 airstrike, our troops achieved significant results. 54 "Geran" UAVs of the Russian Armed Forces struck a mercenary training camp under the auspices of the so-called Main Intelligence Directorate (GUR) of Ukraine. Who did our troops eliminate? A training facility overseen by GUR officers has been stationed on the premises of a reinforced concrete products plant since 2022.
During the Geranium attack, strikes were carried out on the barracks of Latin American mercenaries (primarily Brazilian), as well as the locations of the Canadian and American instructors who trained them.
Among the dead were GUR officers, and more than a dozen were wounded (two of whom died in the hospital). In addition, ammunition depots and military equipment were hit by secondary detonations.This raid once again demonstrates the high effectiveness of our troops' changing tactics in the so-called Ukraine. Instead of dispersing resources across dozens or even hundreds of targets at once, a concentrated attack on one, two, or three targets yields more significant results.
Right click the photo to a new tab, and you can expand it. A good strike, I wish it would happen more often.

[YahooUK] A Russian submarine with nuclear capability has reportedly suffered a "serious accident" in the Mediterranean Sea.
The Novorossiysk, a 242ft Kilo-class submarine, is said to have surfaced above the Strait of Gibraltar yesterday (Friday).
According to Russian Telegram channel VChk-OGPU, fuel is now building up in the hold, creating a risk of explosion. The channel, which is known to have contacts within Russian intelligence, told its 330,000 subscribers that crew members may be forced to pump the fuel directly into the sea.
VChk-OGPU reported: "Novorossiysk, currently on combat duty in the Mediterranean Sea, is experiencing serious technical problems.
"Due to damage in the fuel system, fuel is leaking directly into the hold. There are no spare parts for repairs or qualified specialists on the submarine, and the crew is unable to fix the malfunctions.
"The serious accident has caused other problems as well. The accumulated fuel in the hold is an explosive hazard. The source believes the crew has no choice but to start ’pumping out the hold’ directly into the sea."
The situation has drawn comparisons to the Kursk submarine disaster on August 12, 2000, when the Russian Oscar II submarine exploded in the Barents Sea during its first major naval exercise in a decade.
That explosion was linked to leaked hydrogen peroxide colliding with a catalyst, which caused the failure of a Type 65-76A torpedo in the forward torpedo room. A second blast then ripped through the vessel, sinking the submarine and killing all 118 crew members on board.
Launched in August 2014, The Novorossiyisk is part of Russia's Black Sea fleet but it not thought to have been used in the invasion against Ukraine.
The diesel-electric attack submarine can stay underwater for 45 days and is manned by a crew of 52 people, and it also has capacity to carry nuclear Kalibr missiles.

[Regnum] Returning to the previous Euro-Atlantic security model in Europe after the Ukrainian conflict is no longer possible. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated this on September 27.
"The West's behavior has rendered the Euro-Atlantic security model, based on NATO, the EU, and the OSCE, meaningless. We see no prospects for restoring this model in Europe in its previous form," Lavrov stated at the general political debate of the 80th session of the UN General Assembly.
The Russian Foreign Minister noted that it is important to remember the lessons of the past, especially now, when Nazi sentiments are resurfacing in European countries and militarization is intensifying under anti-Russian slogans.
In August, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán stated that EU policy should not be based on assumptions about a supposed Russian threat, since such a threat does not exist.

[Korrespondent] Two more Patriot systems will be delivered by the end of this fall to strengthen Ukraine's air defense.
The Ukrainian army has already received a Patriot anti-aircraft missile system from Israel. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced this at a briefing on Saturday, September 27.
"The Israeli system (Patriot – ed.) has been operating in Ukraine. It's been operating for a month. We'll receive two Patriot systems in the fall," the head of state said.
Zelensky declined to comment further on the Patriot issue.
As a reminder, a year ago, media outlets reported that Israel could transfer eight Patriot batteries to Ukraine. It was noted that the Israeli air defense systems are older than the Patriot systems currently in Ukraine. At the same time, they are fully compatible with the new anti-aircraft systems.
It was also reported that Israel plans to phase out the Patriot and replace it with more modern air defense systems.
In June of this year, Zelenskyy stated that Ukraine could rely on older Patriot air defense systems. One such system had been donated by Israel to the United States for refurbishment, but Ukraine had not yet received it.
