War in Ukraine

Russia's strategic aviation—Tu-22M3, Tu-95MS, and Tu-160—are the weapons behind Moscow’s brutal attacks on Ukrainian cities. Once, Ukraine had over 100 of these bombers. However, financial debts and international disarmament pressure led to a rapid decline. The former airfield of the 185th Heavy Bomber Aviation Regiment in Poltava stands as a silent witness to this lost power.

In the shadow of relentless shelling and under the iron grip of Russian occupation, ordinary Ukrainians like Maria, Server, and Valentyn endure unimaginable hardships.

As 2025 approaches, the high cost of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine—the largest war since World War II—becomes increasingly evident. US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin estimated on December 7 that Russia has spent over $200 billion since its full-scale war began in 2022.

North Korea’s support for Russia escalates, with artillery, ammunition, and troops flooding into the war against Ukraine.

As the holiday season approaches, Russia continues to break with traditions of wartime Christmas ceasefires, choosing instead to escalate attacks on Ukraine—while blaming Kyiv for rejecting so-called “peace” efforts.

The Finnish scenario from the post-World War II political map of the world has been discussed as an option for Ukraine since the onset of the full-scale invasion. However, it is a bad idea because it essentially subjects Ukraine to Russian influence.
