#War

By the end of 2025 and the beginning of 2026, the war has entered a phase where there are no easy narratives left—only exhaustion. Both Ukraine and Russia are operating at the limits of what their militaries, economies, and societies can sustain.

Photographs, messages, and an audio recording recovered from the phone of Aleksei Bibartsev, a Russian soldier with the call sign “Voron” (the Crow), are being cited by a source from the Ukrainian intelligence as evidence of alleged incestuous and pedophilic abuse involving his two daughters, aged 9 and 15, as well as his efforts to find a woman willing to join them.
