In Putin’s Russia, doubts are growing about the success of Crimea
The propaganda has become louder – and so has the criticism: First, Ukraine has penetrated the air defenses over Crimea and is now firing on the headquarters building. This has an effect.
Sevastopol – Material damage may have been minor. But the stab at the heart of the Russian leadership is violent and painful: Russian propaganda is seething with anger. But also my critics Vladimir Putin Become bolder. On Friday, September 22, Ukrainian missiles hit the headquarters of the Russian Black Sea Fleet in Sevastopol. Another step against the Russian occupation of Crimea, which has been in place for nearly ten years. Pin pricks are painful. For the Russian president, the Black Sea Fleet is an important target of his great power delusions.
Russian propaganda celebrities are similarly aggressive – for example Margarita Simonyan, the TV station’s editor-in-chief Russia Today: Suspecting Ukraine’s Western allies of masterminding the attack, she issues a clear warning via her Telegram channel: If violence in Ukraine continues to increase, Russia „will have to give everyone warning about when it will happen.” As she is directly involved in the conflict, she said Newsweek Quoted.
Simonyan added that she already sees Ukraine’s allies as military opponents. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov had already threatened this. Russian political scientist Sergei Markov also blames the West for the prolonged conflict.
Putin’s advisor: “Russian air defense needs development”
“The brutality of air strikes with missiles and drones is increasing,” the Kremlin advisor wrote on Telegram. He believes that the strike on the headquarters was the most serious attack Ukraine Since the conflict broke out, he thus justifies the need for action by the Russian invaders: “Russian air defense urgently needs to be modernized,” he writes.
Russia may now be afraid. However, that would be one way to interpret a statement made by Andrei Kortunov on the show today In the BBC Radio. He considers that the air strike on the headquarters is meaningless from a military standpoint, but it is “psychologically important,” as he put it. For him, what is at stake in Crimea and Ukraine is no less than the entire world order.
Expert: Putin’s defeat ends with the taming of Russia
Andrei Kortunov is the general director of the enterprise Russian International Affairs Council in Moscow. The research center was founded by the former Russian president Dmitry MedvedevTo prevent international crises and help resolve existing crises. Like Kortunov towards it Economist He considers the Ukraine war to be a struggle of values between two countries that together constituted a large part of Soviet territory: “It is also an intellectual and spiritual confrontation between two ways of thinking: two views of modern cosmopolitanism.” The system and the world in general; There are two conflicting perceptions about what is right and what is wrong, what is just and what is unjust, what is legitimate and what is illegitimate, and what national leadership should mean. “A Ukraine victory could lead to the taming and domestication of Russia.”
A strike against the Black Sea Fleet was also against the Russian elite
The last air strike on the headquarters building Black Sea Fleet In addition to an increasingly loud drumbeat of propaganda, it also leads to exactly the opposite: to louder criticism. Even from a Russian journalist known for propaganda. on In Telegram, Sergei Mardan has now shown that he is inclined to conciliation, calling the Russian invasion of Ukraine a “catastrophic mistake” and the current offensive in Ukraine a “devastating blow against the Russian elite.” According to him, they now want to freeze the conflict this fall.
This may mean that the strike on the headquarters of the Russian Black Sea Fleet has already penetrated the heart of the Russians. Days earlier, it appears that Ukraine also suffered direct hits on two ships Penetration of Russian air defenses over the Crimean Peninsula: This attack in Ukraine war It was directed against an S-400 surface-to-air missile – the pride of Russian air defense in Crimea with the internal designation “Triumph”. Ukraine claims to have destroyed or at least seriously damaged two of the four battalions equipped with S-400 systems. The battalion consists of eight batteries, each containing up to twelve four-man mobile launchers, including radar systems and command vehicles. This is also a catastrophic loss for Russia.
Critics demand that Russia acknowledge defeat in Crimea
Journalist Mardan therefore sees only one option: to partially defeat Russia in Crimea. For Putin, Crimea is an important beachhead on the Black Sea. For centuries, Russia has pursued its interests in the Black Sea through ice-free and, if possible, access to vital sea routes around Europe, which underpins its claim as a maritime power. like him Newsweek Quoting Mardan, the air strike on the headquarters finally destroyed the fantasy that we would have returned Crimea to Russia in 2014 without a single shot.

US President’s announcement Joe BidenThe move to suspend arms sales to Israel if it invades densely populated residential areas in Rafah has drawn strong criticism from the Israeli government. Israeli Police Minister Itamar Ben Gvir wrote on the X platform that the Islamic movement Hamas loves Biden.
In turn, Israeli opposition politicians criticized Ben Gvir for putting Israel in danger with such statements. However, Ben Gvir, who is considered a far-right extremist, is not a member of the war cabinet and therefore is not directly involved in key decisions in the Gaza war.
President Isaac Herzog also responded to Ben Gvir X’s post. “We must refrain from baseless, irresponsible and offensive comments and tweets,” he said.
The United States is said to have suspended the delivery of heavy bombs to Israel
Before Ben Gvir, Israel’s ambassador to the United Nations, Gilad Erdan, had already expressed his disappointment with Biden’s announcement. Erdan told Israeli Kan radio: “This is a difficult and very disappointing statement from a president to whom we have been grateful since the beginning of the war.” Biden’s announcement would give Israel’s enemies such as Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran „hope of success.”
Biden had told CNN that he supports a large-scale invasion of the southern city, which is crowded with hundreds of thousands of Palestinian refugees. Gaza strip His country will not supply weapons. The US government had already detained a shipment of ammunition due to Israeli actions in Rafah. American media reported that the shipment included 3,500 bombs, including bombs weighing 2,000 pounds (907 kg). According to analysts, Israel uses these devices in the war against Hamas, for example to destroy underground Islamist tunnels.
US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin explained to Congress on Wednesday that the United States expects Israel to take specific measures in Gaza to protect civilians. However, 2,000-pound bombs can cause „collateral damage.”
„Deep frustration” over limited US support
The news portal reported that senior Israeli officials expressed „deep frustration” over the seized shipment and warned that it could jeopardize indirect negotiations for a ceasefire and the release of hostages. Axios With reference to two anonymous sources.
Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich wrote in a statement that Israel had received a reminder “that the war of independence is still ongoing.” When it was founded in 1948, the country also faced a US arms embargo. “Today we will once again achieve complete victory in this war, despite President Biden’s opposition and the arms embargo. We simply have no other choice because this war is an existential battle and anything less than comprehensive victory puts the existence of the United Nations at risk.” “The Jewish state will be put in danger,” Smotrich said.

Parliament in Kyiv approves the use of prisoners on the front
6:02 AM: The Ukrainian parliament approved a bill allowing the deployment of prisoners to the front. As MP Olena Shuljak announced on Facebook, deputies in Kiev voted in favor of the project in the second reading with 279 yes votes.
In exchange for amnesty, this allows imprisoned criminals to be deployed in the ranks of the Ukrainian armed forces on the front. According to Shuljak, this should only happen on a voluntary basis. In addition, those affected may have less than three years of imprisonment remaining. Dangerous criminals imprisoned for multiple murders, rapes or attacks on national security are not given the opportunity.
Deputy Shuliak emphasizes that before the operation is performed, the physical and mental condition of the prisoners is also examined. Before the law enters into force, it must be signed by the Speaker of Parliament and the President of the Republic.
Ukraine bombs Russian targets – fires and casualties
5:48 AM: According to Russian sources, a Ukrainian drone attack caused a fire in a refinery in the Russian Krasnodar region. The regional administration said via the short message service „Telegram” that about six drones were shot down, but the debris fell on the refinery near the village of Yurovka and led to a fire. Several tanks were damaged.
In addition, according to Russian sources, at least eight people were injured and several homes and cars were damaged in a Ukrainian airstrike in Russia’s Belgorod region. The governor of the region bordering Ukraine said that an 11-year-old girl was among the injured and was taken to hospital.
Great Britain wants to expel the Russian military attaché
8:38 pm: Britain announced the imminent expulsion of the Russian military attaché. In fact, he is a „little-known military intelligence officer,” Home Secretary James Cleverley said in Parliament in London. A military attaché is a member of the armed forces who serves in an embassy and represents his country’s defense sector abroad.
Cleverley also announced that several Russian properties on British soil that London suspected were being used for „intelligence purposes” would lose their diplomatic status. Cleverly also reveals “new restrictions on Russian diplomatic visas”, in particular limiting the amount of time Russian diplomats can spend in the UK. The Russian ambassador was summoned and informed of the procedures.
Russia rejects the accusations against military attaché Maxim Ilovik and criticizes the loss of diplomatic status for Russian properties. „London decided to justify its anti-Russian measures with lies,” Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said in Moscow. It announced a „strong response” from Russia without going into details.
GPS interference: Estonia appoints Russian charge d’affaires
7:23 pm: Estonia has summoned the Chargé d’Affaires of the Russian Embassy in Tallinn due to a disruption in GPS satellite navigation in the Baltic Sea region. Foreign Minister Margos Tsahkna said in Tallinn that so-called jamming – that is, active disruption of the signal – by Russia is becoming increasingly common. This causes confusion and has a major impact on civil aviation. Aircraft use a Global Positioning System (GPS) signal to determine their location and for navigation.

Der Beginn des Europawahlkampfs der österreichischen Grünen ist von Turbulenzen um Spitzenkandidatin Lena Schilling überlagert worden. Am Mittwoch erschien in der österreichischen Zeitung „Der Standard“ ein Bericht, in dem Schilling zwar keine rechtlichen – oder im engeren Sinne politischen – Vorwürfe gemacht werden, aber in dem ein äußerst ungünstiges Charakterbild gezeichnet wird.
[–>
Anlass der Berichterstattung ist eine gerichtliche Unterlassungserklärung, mit der sich Schilling verpflichtet, bestimmte Behauptungen über Personen aus ihrem privaten Umfeld nicht mehr zu verbreiten. Daran anknüpfend zitiert die Zeitung mehrere anonyme Gesprächspartner in einer Weise, die es nahelegt, dass die junge politische Quereinsteigerin – bekanntgeworden als Klimaaktivistin – häufiger falsche abträgliche Behauptungen über andere Personen in die Welt setze. Schilling mochte sich in der Sache nicht äußern, da es sich um ihr Privatleben handle. Es werde gegen sie mit Gerüchten und Unterstellungen „kampagnisiert“.

Zeitung kritisiert Reaktion des Parteivorsitzenden
[–>
Die Chefredaktion des linksliberalen Blattes rügte ihrerseits, dass der Grünen-Vorsitzende journalistische Arbeit als „Gefurze“ bezeichne. Man könne jede behauptete Einzelheit belegen. Veröffentlicht wurde – bei geschwärzten Namen – die Unterlassungserklärung. In dem Artikel wird ausführlich begründet, warum man sich entschlossen habe, in dieser Weise über Dinge zu berichten, die die Privatsphäre berühren. Schilling sei Spitzenkandidatin, werde wahrscheinlich ins Europaparlament einziehen und könnte dort die österreichische Grünen-Delegation anführen. Daher sei sie eine Person öffentlichen Interesses, und es sei relevant, wie sie sich gegenüber Kollegen und auch Medien verhalte.
[–>
In einem Fall geht es darum, dass sie einem Journalisten sexuelle Belästigung vorgeworfen haben soll. Der Mann sei von einer Kündigung bedroht gewesen, doch habe eine Untersuchung durch seinen Arbeitgeber keine Hinweise darauf ergeben, dass an dem Vorwurf etwas dran sei.
[–>[–>
Die Grünen sprachen hingegen von einer „organisierten Kampagne“. Die Fraktionsvorsitzende Sigrid Maurer meinte, das sei auch direkt gegen junge Frauen gerichtet. Klimaschutzministerin Leonore Gewessler bezeichnete die Vorwürfe als „hemmungslos“. Schilling selbst äußerte, dass sie lieber über politische Inhalte diskutieren wolle, nämlich den Klimaschutz.
