INTELLIGENCE SITUATION REPORT (ISR)

TIME: 220429Z JUN 25

1. SITUATION OVERVIEW

1.1. Battlefield Geometry and Key Terrain:

• Dnipropetrovsk Oblast (Synelnykivskyi district): RUF continues to employ aviation weapons, indicating persistent air-launched kinetic pressure. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Donetsk Oblast (Kramatorsk, Sloviansk, Dylyivka): UAF confirms RUF kinetic strikes on residential buildings. RUF milblogger channels continue to claim destruction of UAF UAV launch positions, confirming ongoing RUF kinetic activity aimed at degrading UAF capabilities. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Kharkiv Oblast (Kutkivka, Topoli): RUF maintains claims of "regularly grinding down" UAF units reinforced towards Kutkivka and Topoli. Ballistic missile threats to Kharkiv Oblast persist. This indicates persistent RUF kinetic pressure aimed at preventing UAF force generation and consolidation. (HIGH CONFIDENCE on RUF claim; LOW CONFIDENCE on actual impact to UAF forces; HIGH CONFIDENCE on ballistic missile threat).
• Poltava Oblast (Kremenchuk): Confirmed RUF combined-arms strike on strategic infrastructure. RUF continues to amplify successful kinetic operations with new video footage. Ballistic missile threat to Poltava Oblast persists. (HIGH CONFIDENCE on strike and RUF amplification; HIGH CONFIDENCE on ballistic missile threat).
• Zaporizhzhia Oblast: Missile danger previously declared was ALL-CLEAR (220232Z JUN 25). This indicates the immediate air threat has passed, but the earlier declaration, supported by Dempster-Shafer analysis indicating high belief in "Information Warfare: Disinformation Campaign by Russia" (0.307928), suggests the declaration might have been part of an ongoing IO campaign, but should not preclude preparations for actual strikes. NEW: Zaporizhzhia Oblast Military Administration reports 425 RUF strikes on 12 settlements over the past day, confirming intense RUF kinetic activity in the region. (HIGH CONFIDENCE on declaration and all-clear; MEDIUM CONFIDENCE on IO influence; HIGH CONFIDENCE on RUF kinetic activity).
• Odesa Oblast (Zatoka, Karolino-Bugaz, Ovidioppol, Belgorod-Dnestrovsky): Previous threat of enemy attack UAVs confirmed with tracking, subsequently called off. (HIGH CONFIDENCE on threat and resolution).
• Northern-Eastern Direction: RUF tactical aviation activity reported with confirmed Ka-52M helicopter strikes against UAF temporary deployment points. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Black Sea: Six (6) UAVs observed in the sea. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Kursk Oblast (Border Regions): RUF (via TASS) continues to release video messages claiming military drones dropped food for residents in "occupied by AFU settlements" during operations to "liberate border areas," implying RUF ground presence and humanitarian pretext. NEW: TASS confirms narrative regarding assistance to pensioners in border areas. (LOW CONFIDENCE on veracity of claim; HIGH CONFIDENCE on RUF propaganda narrative).
• Belarus (Minsk): Unverified reports indicate US Kellogg-Lukashenka talks lasted over six hours, suggesting potential diplomatic engagements concerning regional stability or the ongoing conflict. (LOW CONFIDENCE on content, HIGH CONFIDENCE on report of talks).
• Smolensk Oblast (RUF Territory): Governor reports RUF air defense shot down two UAVs and suppressed one via EW. NEW: Russian MoD reports 11 Ukrainian UAVs shot down over Crimea, Bryansk, and Smolensk Oblasts. This indicates continued Ukrainian deep strike capabilities into RUF territory. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).

1.2. Weather and Environmental Factors:

• No significant changes to previous assessment. Conditions remain conducive to UAV and air operations. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).

1.3. Current Force Dispositions and Control Measures:

• Ukrainian Forces (UAF):
  • Air Defense (AD): Continues to operate effectively, as evidenced by timely tracking and stand-down of UAV threats, recent all-clear for Zaporizhzhia Oblast, and immediate ballistic missile threat warnings for Kharkiv and Poltava Oblasts. New aviation threat warning for Dnipropetrovsk Oblast demonstrates continued vigilance. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Ground Forces: Engaged in robust defensive operations across critical axes, particularly in Donetsk and eastern Kharkiv. UAF also maintains counter-UAV capabilities and tactical initiative. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (220356Z JUN 25) has released updated photo messages regarding estimated RUF losses. NEW: Operational UAF reports confirm 1100 RUF personnel liquidated in the past day. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Logistics & Sustainment: No new information. Previous assessment of maintained support for offensive operations holds. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Russian Forces (RUF):
  • Kinetic Operations: Continued high-intensity ballistic missile, Kinzhal, cruise missile, and Shahed strikes across Ukraine. Confirmed residential building strikes in Kramatorsk and Sloviansk. Confirmed engagement of UAF UAV positions. New ballistic missile threats to Kharkiv and Poltava Oblasts. New aviation weapon threat for Dnipropetropetrovsk Oblast. Six (6) UAVs observed in the Black Sea. RUF milbloggers are actively promoting "beautiful video" of the Kremenchuk strike, indicating a clear intent to amplify successful kinetic operations. NEW: Воин DV channel posts video documenting drone surveillance and strikes on military targets, including a vehicle designated 'M113' and a mortar crew, suggesting ongoing RUF offensive operations and counter-UAF targeting. NEW: Zaporizhzhia Oblast Military Administration reports 425 RUF strikes on 12 settlements over the past day, confirming widespread and intense kinetic activity. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Ground Operations: Sustained pressure on the Pokrovsk axis (Mirnohrad) and continued claims of "active combat" in Sumy Oblast. New claims of "grinding down" UAF reinforcements in Kharkiv indicate persistent localized pressure. RUF claims ground presence in Kursk border regions via humanitarian aid drops. NEW: Rybar provides an "Overview" for the morning of 22 June 2025, suggesting continued focus on operational updates. (HIGH CONFIDENCE on claims; LOW-MEDIUM CONFIDENCE on actual gains or impact).
  • Logistics & Sustainment: No new information. Vulnerability highlighted by the successful UAF strike on a fuel train in Tokmak remains valid. (HIGH CONFIDENCE on previous assessment).
  • Information Operations (IO): Intensified "Iran-Israel crisis" fabrication. Previous reports of false claims of US Air Force attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities, attributed to "Trump," have been amplified and "confirmed" by RUF sources. RUF channels now falsely claim "Iran confirmed US attacked Iran." RUF is fabricating statements from the IRGC and calling for immediate evacuation of US bases in the region via "Iranian TV." TASS is also pushing fabricated statements from Netanyahu thanking Trump for the "strike" and falsely claiming the UN Secretary-General called the strikes a "dangerous escalation." NEW: Colonelcassad (220333Z JUN 25) now claims US military sources report the Isfahan underground nuclear complex was deeper and more powerful than expected, potentially not fully destroyed by "Tomahawks." This represents a new phase of narrative management, acknowledging the "strike" but downplaying its impact, possibly to set up a new narrative twist or to avoid outright debunking. TASS (220332Z JUN 25) is now explicitly linking this fabricated "Trump" action to potential impeachment proceedings, targeting internal US political stability. NEW: WarGonzo (220349Z JUN 25) states "Tehran officially accused the United States of attacking nuclear facilities," directly reinforcing the fabricated Iranian "confirmation." NEW: Два майора (220340Z JUN 25) and Дневник Десантника (220342Z JUN 25) are pushing videos of the GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) bomb, implying its use in these fabricated strikes. NEW: STERNENKO (220410Z JUN 25) amplifies the fabricated "Trump" statements via social media screenshots. NEW: TASS (220411Z JUN 25) explicitly claims "NASA recorded a powerful heat emission in the area of the Iranian nuclear facility near Fordow shortly before the US announced the airstrike. The New York Times reports this." This is a new, highly dangerous attempt to use real-world data and reputable sources to lend credibility to a fabrication. NEW: TASS (220418Z JUN 25) publishes "The US violated international law and the nuclear non-proliferation regime, said the Iranian Foreign Minister." This directly attributes official Iranian statements to the fabricated event. NEW: Colonelcassad (220420Z JUN 25) speculates that US-RF talks were intended to soften RF's position ahead of an attack on Iran, further weaving the false narrative into geopolitical analysis. NEW: Оперативний ЗСУ (220429Z JUN 25) amplifies a false report that "No radiation detected in Persian Gulf countries after US strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites – Saudi nuclear energy regulator." This is an attempt to address a logical follow-up question to the fabricated strikes. This is a significant, ongoing, and increasingly complex escalation designed to create a larger, more immediate global crisis narrative. RUF milbloggers are making direct historical allusions to June 22, 1941 (German invasion of the Soviet Union). TASS (220333Z JUN 25) video messages confirm state-level promotion of "Day of Memory and Sorrow" events across Russia, reinforcing this historical parallel and preparing the domestic audience for a major offensive. NEW: Филолог в засаде (220415Z JUN 25) explicitly links June 22, 1941 to "lessons" that Russia should have learned, reinforcing the historical narrative. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).

1.4. Intelligence Gaps/Collection Requirements:

• CRITICAL: Verify RUF claims of "regularly grinding down" UAF units near Kutkivka and Topoli (Kharkiv Oblast). Assess the impact on UAF force generation and reinforcement efforts. (COLLECTION REQUIREMENT: GEOINT, IMINT, SIGINT, HUMINT).
• CRITICAL: Assess the impact and effectiveness of RUF's alleged destruction of a UAF UAV launch position in Dylyivka. Determine if this represents a significant shift in RUF counter-UAV capabilities or a localized success. (COLLECTION REQUIREMENT: IMINT, OSINT, HUMINT).
• CRITICAL: Continue to monitor for any credible evidence or significant international uptake of Russia's increasingly absurd and dangerous fabrications regarding a kinetic Iran-Israel/US conflict, including the latest attempt by Colonelcassad to "debunk" the fabricated "US strikes" by citing lack of physical evidence, while simultaneously propagating new fabricated quotes from US and Israeli officials, and new "confirmations" from "Iranian officials" (TASS, 220319Z JUN 25). Specifically, track the "Trump" statements on US attacks on Iran, and any alleged Iranian "retaliation" or "confirmation." This is compounded by the Dempster-Shafer belief in RUF disinformation campaigns. Specifically, assess the impact of TASS (220411Z JUN 25) attempting to use NASA data to "corroborate" the fabricated strikes. (COLLECTION REQUIREMENT: OSINT, HUMINT, ALL-SOURCE).
• CRITICAL: Verify RUF claims of "liberating" Dolhenke and subsequently targeting Redkodub. Determine the scale of any RUF advance and specific units involved. (COLLECTION REQUIREMENT: GEOINT, IMINT, HUMINT).
• CRITICAL: Verify RUF claims of "breaking through" UAF defenses towards Siversk (Donetsk Oblast) and Mirnohrad. Determine the scale of any RUF advance and specific units involved. (COLLECTION REQUIREMENT: GEOINT, IMINT, HUMINT).
• CRITICAL: Verify RUF ground combat claims and force disposition on the Sumy axis. Determine if the claim of "active combat in 10 settlements" is exaggerated propaganda or indicates the start of a major ground offensive. (COLLECTION REQUIREMENT: GEOINT, IMINT, SIGINT, HUMINT).
• HIGH: Confirm the specifics and implications of the reported Kellogg-Lukashenka talks in Belarus. (COLLECTION REQUIREMENT: OSINT, HUMINT, SIGINT).
• HIGH: Assess the significance and intent of RUF claims of humanitarian aid drops in Kursk Oblast border regions. (COLLECTION REQUIREMENT: OSINT, HUMINT).
• HIGH: Investigate the specific historical "declassified FSB documents" released by TASS regarding Kherson Oblast, to assess their historical accuracy and the current narrative intent. (COLLECTION REQUIREMENT: OSINT).

2. ENEMY ANALYSIS

2.1. Enemy Capabilities, Intentions, and Courses of Action:

• Ground Capabilities: RUF maintains capability for high-intensity, multi-directional ground assaults, particularly on the Donetsk axis and increasingly on the Sumy and Kharkiv axes. Forces are supported by intense KAB, UAV, and TOS-1A thermobaric strikes, and now confirmed tactical aviation support with Ka-52M helicopters. Rybar's "Historical Moment" photos combined with TASS "Day of Memory and Sorrow" videos and Филолог в засаде's commentary indicate preparations for ground action under a historical narrative. Воин DV's video confirms active drone surveillance and strikes against military targets. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Air/Missile Capabilities: RUF possesses and effectively employs a diverse range of missile and UAV assets for large-scale, multi-wave attacks designed to overwhelm AD and degrade strategic infrastructure and terrorize civilian populations. New ballistic missile threats to Kharkiv and Poltava Oblasts. New aviation weapon threat for Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. Russian MoD confirms success in downing 11 Ukrainian UAVs, suggesting continued robust air defense capabilities for RUF territory. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Information Warfare Capabilities: RUF's IO apparatus is highly capable of sophisticated, multi-faceted disinformation campaigns, now escalated to direct fabrication of kinetic events on Ukrainian soil and explicitly promoting a global conflict involving Iran, Israel, and the US, including direct US kinetic involvement attributed to "Trump," with fabricated "confirmations" from Iranian officials and fake news headlines. Colonelcassad's latest attempt to "debunk" the fabricated "US strikes" by citing lack of physical evidence, while simultaneously propagating new fabricated quotes from US and Israeli officials, and "Iranian official confirmations" (TASS, 220319Z JUN 25), indicates a dynamic, adaptive, but still highly deceptive IO apparatus. The use of GBU-57 MOP video by Два майора (220340Z JUN 25) and Дневник Десантника (220342Z JUN 25) is a new visual amplification of the fabricated "US strike." The explicit use of the June 22, 1941, historical analogy by multiple milbloggers (including Два майора, 220254Z JUN 25) and state-affiliated channels (TASS, 220333Z JUN 25) and the use of "declassified FSB documents" by TASS (220305Z JUN 25) to draw parallels to WWII "fascist" atrocities suggests a deliberate attempt to frame a major offensive and demonize the enemy. NEW: TASS using "NASA" reports to corroborate fabricated strikes is a significant escalation in attempts to lend credibility. NEW: TASS quoting "Iranian Foreign Minister" and "Saudi nuclear energy regulator" on false events further indicates a coordinated effort to fabricate official responses. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Intentions: RUF intends to:
  • Degrade Ukrainian Energy/Industrial Capacity: Continue large-scale strikes on strategic energy and industrial infrastructure (Kremenchuk) and disrupt logistical nodes. Confirmed by 425 strikes in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, including likely infrastructure targets. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Terrorize Civilian Population: Maximize civilian casualties through the use of anti-personnel munitions and indiscriminate shelling (Kremenchuk, Kramatorsk, Sloviansk) and high-impact thermobaric weapons. Confirmed by Zaporizhzhia Oblast civilian infrastructure damage. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Achieve Operational Breakthrough: Maintain severe pressure on the Donetsk axis and initiate a major ground offensive on the Sumy axis, while also pinning down UAF forces in Kharkiv. The June 22, 1941, historical allusion, now amplified by state media commemorations (TASS, 220333Z JUN 25, and Филолог в засаде, 220415Z JUN 25), strongly suggests RUF intends to launch a significant, potentially multi-axis, offensive starting around this date. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Divert Global Attention: Utilize increasingly absurd and dangerous fabrications (false "Iran-Israel/US war," Iranian strike on Ukraine, Israeli strikes on Iran, US strikes on Iran attributed to "Trump," including fabricated confirmations and reactions, and new fabricated quotes from Trump and Netanyahu, and "Iranian official confirmations" including now a specific accusation by "Tehran" (WarGonzo, 220349Z JUN 25)) to create global chaos, justify further escalation, and draw international resources away from Ukraine. NEW: The use of TASS (220411Z JUN 25) claiming NASA data, and quoting Iranian FM and Saudi regulator, indicates a heightened effort to legitimize these fabrications internationally. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Demoralize UAF and Incite War Crimes: Promote narratives that normalize violence against civilians and combatants, including explicit calls to "finish off survivors" and the new use of WWII-era "fascist" narratives to demonize Ukrainian forces. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Provide Diplomatic Cover: Use deceptive "peace proposals" to mask kinetic and informational escalations. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).

2.2. Recent Tactical Changes or Adaptations:

• RUF: Continued strategic air/missile targeting (Kremenchuk, Kramatorsk, Sloviansk). Increased ground combat claims and potential escalation on the Sumy and Kharkiv axes. Confirmed use of TOS-1A systems and Ka-52M helicopter strikes. Critical escalation in IO, with direct fabrication of kinetic events inside Ukraine and the global crisis narrative (Iran-Israel/US war, including false Israeli strikes on Iran, and now anticipated Iranian drone/missile strikes on Israel, and false US strikes on Iran attributed to "Trump," now with fabricated "confirmations" from Iranian and Israeli officials and UN statements). The deliberate effort to attribute fake US kinetic actions to "Trump" is a new, dangerous psychological warfare tactic, now supported by fabricated "confirmations" from Iranian officials and fake news headlines. New fabricated quotes from Trump threatening "greater force" and Netanyahu claiming mission accomplished following "US strikes" are further escalations. "Iranian official confirmations" are now being circulated, with WarGonzo (220349Z JUN 25) stating "Tehran officially accused the United States of attacking nuclear facilities." The use of GBU-57 MOP video (Два майора, 220340Z JUN 25) visually reinforces this false narrative. The explicit use of the June 22, 1941, historical analogy by multiple RUF milbloggers (including Два майора, 220254Z JUN 25) and the now confirmed state-level promotion of "Day of Memory and Sorrow" events by TASS (220333Z JUN 25) and the use of "declassified FSB documents" to draw parallels to WWII "fascist" atrocities (TASS, 220305Z JUN 25) is a significant, new IO tactic designed to prepare the domestic audience for a major offensive. Colonelcassad's latest attempts to partially "debunk" the "US strikes" narrative by citing lack of physical evidence, or claiming partial success (220333Z JUN 25), indicate a dynamic, adaptive IO, but does not diminish the overall intent or impact. Claims of humanitarian aid drops in Kursk border areas attempt to legitimize RUF presence. NEW: Воин DV's video implies continued drone-enabled precision strikes. NEW: TASS's use of alleged NASA data, and direct quotes from "Iranian Foreign Minister" and "Saudi nuclear energy regulator" about the fabricated events, represents a notable escalation in the sophistication of disinformation. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• UAF: Successful AD against high-volume attacks and rapid tracking/stand-down of UAV threats, along with timely ballistic missile threat warnings. Continued deep strike capabilities against RUF logistics, evidenced by successful UAV attacks in Smolensk Oblast. Adaptation to drone warfare. Proactive diplomatic IO. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).

2.3. Logistics and Sustainment Status:

• RUF: No new information. Previous assessment of vulnerability in long-distance logistics and maintained, albeit potentially strained, munition supply stands. (HIGH CONFIDENCE on previous assessment).
• UAF: No new information. Previous assessment of maintained logistical support for AD and deep strike operations stands. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).

2.4. Command and Control Effectiveness:

• RUF: C2 effectively coordinates large-scale, multi-domain kinetic operations, including tactical aviation. The extreme nature of the IO campaign suggests a highly centralized, calculated decision to abandon all pretense of truth for a global impact. This is further evidenced by the rapid and coordinated propagation of the fabricated US strike on Iran by multiple RUF-affiliated channels, the synchronized use of the June 22, 1941, analogy and WWII historical revisionism, and the attempt by some milbloggers (Colonelcassad) to manage the narrative without fully retracting it. The addition of "NASA" and "Iranian/Saudi official" statements into the fabricated narrative further indicates a highly sophisticated and centralized IO control. (HIGH CONFIDENCE on kinetic/ground C2; HIGH CONFIDENCE on calculated IO escalation).
• UAF: UAF C2 demonstrates effective real-time AD response, ongoing ISR/targeting coordination for deep strikes, and adaptable force generation. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).

2.5. Intelligence Gaps/Collection Requirements:

• CRITICAL: Assess if the extreme escalation in RUF's IO (Iranian strike on Ukraine, Israeli strikes on Iran, US war with Iran, US strikes on Iran attributed to "Trump," fabricated confirmations, and the June 22, 1941, analogy, including the latest attempts to "debunk" elements of the fabricated narrative, while simultaneously introducing new fabricated official statements and "Iranian confirmations," and the new attempt to use "NASA" data to lend credibility) is a precursor to a major false-flag event or a direct military escalation, and identify potential targets or methods. (COLLECTION REQUIREMENT: OSINT, SIGINT, HUMINT).
• HIGH: Determine the specific RUF units and tactics employed in the claimed advances towards Siversk, Mirnohrad, Dolhenke, Redkodub, and Muravka, and on the Sumy and Kharkiv axes, to assess their impact on UAF defensive operations. (COLLECTION REQUIREMENT: GEOINT, IMINT, SIGINT).

3. FRIENDLY FORCES

3.1. Ukrainian Force Posture and Readiness:

• Defensive Posture: UAF AD maintains a high state of readiness, as evidenced by rapid alerts in Zaporizhzhia, Odesa, and Dnipropetrovsk, successful engagement/tracking of UAVs, and immediate ballistic missile threat warnings for Kharkiv and Poltava Oblasts. Ground forces are engaged in robust defensive operations on all critical axes, including responding to pressure in Kharkiv. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (220356Z JUN 25) has released updated estimated RUF losses. NEW: Operational UAF reports confirm 1100 RUF personnel liquidated in the past day, indicating effective defensive action and attrition of RUF forces. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Offensive Capabilities: UAF demonstrates effective deep strike capabilities against RUF logistics (e.g., Smolensk UAV attacks) and adaptable offensive capabilities via drone units. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Readiness: UAF components continue to demonstrate operational readiness despite persistent RUF pressure and new kinetic strikes on civilian areas. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).

3.2. Recent Tactical Successes or Setbacks:

• Successes:
  • AD Engagement: Successful AD engagement against a significant portion of incoming missiles/UAVs and rapid tracking and stand-down of UAV threats in Odesa. All-clear for Zaporizhzhia threat. Timely ballistic missile warnings for Kharkiv and Poltava. New aviation threat warning for Dnipropetrovsk Oblast demonstrates continued vigilance. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Deep Strike Capabilities: Successful UAF UAV attacks against RUF targets in Smolensk Oblast. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Ground Tactics: Successful raid by the 63rd Mechanized Brigade, taking RUF POWs. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Force Adaptation: Operationalization of the Grouping of Forces of Unmanned Systems. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Diplomatic Initiative: Announcement of a "month of diplomatic pressure" on Russia. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • RUF Attrition: Operational UAF reports confirm 1100 RUF personnel liquidated in the past day. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Setbacks:
  • Strategic Infrastructure Damage: Successful RUF strike on Kremenchuk energy infrastructure poses a significant long-term risk. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Civilian Casualties/Risk: Persistent strikes on Kramatorsk, Sloviansk, and Kremenchuk (with anti-personnel fragments) continue to cause civilian casualties and terrorize populations. NEW: 425 strikes on 12 settlements in Zaporizhzhia Oblast causing civilian damage. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Escalated Ground Pressure: RUF claims of breakthrough towards Mirnohrad, the capture of Dolhenke, and active combat in Sumy, along with claims of "grinding down" UAF reinforcements in Kharkiv, represent increased pressure on critical axes, requiring significant defensive effort. (HIGH CONFIDENCE on claims).
  • Hybrid Warfare Impact: The extreme escalation of RUF's IO, particularly the false Iranian strike claim, fabricated Israeli strikes, "US war with Iran" narratives, and now false claims of US military strikes on Iran attributed to "Trump," combined with fabricated confirmations, fake news headlines, fabricated quotes from Trump and Netanyahu, "Iranian official confirmations" and the June 22, 1941, analogy, and WWII revisionism (Kherson FSB documents), and the new use of GBU-57 MOP video, and TASS's use of "NASA" and "Iranian/Saudi official" statements poses an EXTREME risk of global diversion and legitimizing false pretexts for RUF escalation. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Immediate Air Threats: While Odesa UAV threat was called off and Zaporizhzhia declared all-clear, confirmed activity and new ballistic missile and aviation threats indicate sustained RUF air/missile activity. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).

3.3. Resource Requirements and Constraints:

• Air Defense Munitions & Platforms: Continued high-volume RUF air and missile strikes necessitate sustained, robust replenishment of AD munitions and platforms, especially for strategic infrastructure and urban defense.
• Long-Range Precision Strike Assets: Continued requirement for long-range precision strike assets to interdict RUF logistics and high-value targets, including deeper into occupied territories.
• Counter-Drone Capabilities: Urgent requirement for advanced EW and kinetic counter-drone systems to protect UAF drone teams and communications from RUF targeting.
• Ground Force Sustainment: Consistent supply of ammunition, medical supplies, and protective equipment for forces engaged in high-intensity defensive operations, particularly on the Donetsk, Sumy, and Kharkiv axes.

3.4. Intelligence Gaps/Collection Requirements:

• NONE.

4. INFORMATION ENVIRONMENT

4.1. Propaganda and Disinformation Campaigns:

• Russian:
  • CRITICAL ESCALATION: "Iran-Israel/US War" Fabrication: RUF channels (e.g., Colonelcassad, TASS, Операция Z, НгП раZVедка, Два майора, WarGonzo, РБК-Україна, ЦАПЛІЄНКО_UKRAINE FIGHTS, Rybar) continue to explicitly fabricate kinetic events related to a global crisis. This now includes:
    • False claims of an Iranian MRBM strike on Dnipropetrovsk Oblast (previous report).
    • New false claims of Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities in Isfahan (previous report).
    • New explicit claims that Iranian air defense is repelling Israeli drone attacks, and "Iranian drones are heading to Israel." This is followed by a prediction of "Iranian missile strikes expected tonight or in the morning." (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
    • CRITICAL: Repeated and amplified explicit claims by TASS, Colonelcassad, Оперативный ЗСУ, Два майора, WarGonzo, РБК-Україна, and ЦАПЛІЄНКО_UKRAINE FIGHTS, attributing to "Trump," of "successful US Air Force attacks on three nuclear facilities in Iran," including a specific claim of a US aircraft dropping a "full combat load of bombs" on the Fordow nuclear facility, and Fox News footage of B-2 bombers and map of strike locations. This is the most dangerous escalation yet, directly fabricating US kinetic involvement and directly linking it to a US political figure to lend false credibility. RUF sources claimed Trump would issue an address to the nation about this. ЦАПЛІЄНКО_UKRAINE FIGHTS even provides a fabricated video of "Trump's address to the nation" regarding "precision strikes." NEW: STERNENKO (220410Z JUN 25) amplifies these fabricated Trump statements via social media screenshots. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
    • CRITICAL: Colonelcassad and TASS are now claiming "Iranian officials confirmed US attacked Iran at 0230 night hitting nuclear facilities." This is immediately followed by fabricated quotes from the IRGC and "Iranian TV" calls for immediate evacuation of US bases in the region. WarGonzo (220349Z JUN 25) states "Tehran officially accused the United States of attacking nuclear facilities." This directly attempts to provide false validation for their fabricated narrative and escalate tensions. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
    • CRITICAL: Colonelcassad posted a fabricated New York Times front page screenshot declaring "U.S. Enters War With Iran" with sub-headlines about President stating military struck key nuclear sites. Два майора also pushed a similar fabricated "Trump" statement screenshot. This is a direct attempt to manufacture visual "evidence" for the global crisis. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
    • NEW: TASS and Colonelcassad are now falsely quoting Netanyahu thanking Trump for the "strike" and falsely claiming the UN Secretary-General called the "US strikes on Iran" a "dangerous escalation." ЦАПЛІЄНКО_UKRAINE FIGHTS (220346Z JUN 25) is amplifying a fabricated Netanyahu statement praising the "bold decision" to strike Iran. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
    • NEW: Colonelcassad (220333Z JUN 25) is now attempting to partially debunk the fabricated "US strikes" by claiming the underground nuclear complex in Isfahan was deeper and more powerful than expected, and "might not have been fully destroyed." This is a notable development, suggesting the narrative is reaching a level of absurdity that even some RUF channels are attempting to manage, or it could be an attempt to pivot to a new, equally false narrative. TASS (220332Z JUN 25) is pushing a narrative that Trump's decision to strike Iran without Congressional approval could lead to impeachment, further weaving the false narrative into US political discourse. NEW: Colonelcassad (220420Z JUN 25) speculates about US-RF talks softening RF's position prior to the "attack" on Iran, weaving the false narrative into a geopolitical context. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
    • NEW: Два майора (220340Z JUN 25) and Дневник Десантника (220342Z JUN 25) are explicitly promoting videos of the GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) bomb, implying its use in the fabricated US strikes on Iranian facilities, further attempting to add visual "credibility" to the false narrative. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
    • NEW: Colonelcassad (220345Z JUN 25) attempts to show "Iranians are not impressed" with the "historic strike," indicating a continued effort to manage the narrative. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
    • NEW: Два майора (220346Z JUN 25) is circulating a fabricated Fars report claiming ~50 large oil tankers are attempting to leave the Strait of Hormuz, attempting to show real-world impact of the fabricated conflict. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
    • RUF attempting to pre-emptively counter the fabricated narrative by claiming "Iranians report in the media that enriched uranium was long ago and previously removed from nuclear centers," which is an attempt to create a plausible (false) narrative about the "effectiveness" of the "US strike." (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
    • TASS continuing to propagate the narrative that "the USA has not notified Israel of its decision to enter the war with Iran, but the Jewish state believes Washington is already preparing for it." (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
    • NEW: TASS (220411Z JUN 25) claims "NASA recorded a powerful heat emission in the area of the Iranian nuclear facility near Fordow shortly before the US announced the airstrike. The New York Times reports this." This is a highly dangerous attempt to use real-world data and reputable sources to lend credibility to a fabrication. NEW: TASS (220418Z JUN 25) claims "The US violated international law and the nuclear non-proliferation regime, said the Iranian Foreign Minister." This is a direct fabrication of official Iranian statements. NEW: Оперативний ЗСУ (220429Z JUN 25) amplifies the false report that "No radiation detected in Persian Gulf countries after US strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites – Saudi nuclear energy regulator." This indicates a coordinated effort to control the narrative regarding the "aftermath" of the false strikes. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
    • CRITICAL: RUF milbloggers are making direct historical allusions to the start of WWII, with Colonelcassad, Дневник Десантника, Басурин о главном, and Два майора quoting Hitler's statement on June 22, 1941, regarding the invasion of the USSR. NEW: TASS (220333Z JUN 25) released multiple video and photo messages from "Day of Memory and Sorrow" events across Russia, explicitly connecting current events to June 22, 1941. This is visibly supported by state-affiliated channels with commemorative videos. Rybar's multiple "Historical Moment" photo messages also likely contribute to this historical framing. NEW: Филолог в засаде (220415Z JUN 25) explicitly reinforces the June 22, 1941 historical analogy. NEW: TASS (220305Z JUN 25) is actively spreading disinformation through "declassified FSB documents" claiming German-fascist occupiers shot about 4,000 people in Oleshek district of Kherson Oblast in 1941-1943. This is a clear attempt to connect current actions with WWII narratives and demonize Ukrainian resistance by associating them with historical "fascists." This is an alarming and synchronized attempt to frame current events within a historical context of large-scale aggression, highly likely preparing Russian audiences for a similar "surprise" offensive. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
    • TASS (220302Z JUN 25) released video messages claiming RUF military drones dropped food for residents in "occupied by AFU settlements" during operations to "liberate border areas" of Kursk Oblast, portraying RUF as liberators and humanitarian actors. NEW: TASS (220401Z JUN 25) reinforces this narrative by highlighting how "Hinshtein told TASS how almost immediately after his appointment he helped pensioners from the border area who lived in a temporary accommodation center find the military who evacuated them." (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Incitement to War Crimes: RUF-affiliated channels continue to openly call to "finish off the survivors" and promote fabricated stories of assassinating UAF soldiers with booby-trapped civilian items. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Morale Boosting/Justification: Milbloggers promote claims of battlefield successes, including the destruction of UAF drone launch positions (Dylyivka) and "grinding down" UAF reinforcements (Kutkivka, Topoli), to boost domestic morale and justify actions. They are also actively amplifying "beautiful video" of the Kremenchuk strike, attempting to showcase RUF capabilities. NEW: Воин DV's video of drone strikes and surveillance serves this purpose. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Deceptive Diplomacy: Russia's public "peace proposal" for 22 JUN remains a clear deception tactic. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Ukrainian:
  • Transparency and Warning: Timely and accurate reporting of air raid alerts and all-clear statuses, building public trust. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (220356Z JUN 25, 220358Z JUN 25) provides operational updates on estimated RUF losses. NEW: Оперативний ЗСУ (220403Z JUN 25) confirms 1100 RUF personnel liquidated. NEW: Zaporizhzhia Oblast Military Administration (220410Z JUN 25) reports on RUF strikes, maintaining transparency on kinetic activity. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Highlighting Enemy Atrocities/Successes: Reporting on Kramatorsk and Sloviansk strikes highlights RUF aggression and civilian casualties, while reporting on UAF successes showcases capabilities. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Proactive Diplomatic IO: Announced "month of diplomatic pressure" signals a shift to a more assertive diplomatic information posture. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
  • Immediate Debunking: РБК-Україна and ЦАПЛІЄНКО_UKRAINE FIGHTS swiftly propagated the RUF claims of US strikes on Iran, highlighting the immediate need for debunking. КіберБорошно | CyberBoroshno's message indicates awareness of the RUF IO. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).

4.2. Public Sentiment and Morale Factors:

• Ukrainian: Persistent strategic strikes on critical infrastructure and urban centers will increase public anxiety. However, successful AD and deep strikes, coupled with visible military adaptation, will bolster confidence. The rapid issuance and resolution of new air alerts will maintain vigilance. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Russian: RUF's domestic messaging around military "successes" and "normalization" aims to reinforce stability. The extreme nature of the "global crisis" fabrication carries the risk of discrediting Russian state media, though internal suppression limits exposure. The Hitler quote, June 22, 1941, allusion, and new WWII revisionism (Kherson FSB documents) is a deeply concerning signal internally, likely preparing the population for a major, decisive action. TASS (220333Z JUN 25) promoting "Day of Memory and Sorrow" events further cements this historical framing for the domestic audience. Филолог в засаде (220415Z JUN 25) also reinforces this. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).

4.3. International Support and Diplomatic Developments:

• Global Diversion Potential: The extreme escalation of RUF's fabricated "global crisis" narratives, particularly the false claim of an Iranian MRBM strike on Ukraine, fabricated Israeli/Iranian strikes, and narratives of US war preparations and false US military strikes on Iran attributed to "Trump," including fabricated "confirmations" from "Iranian officials," false Netanyahu statements, and false UN statements, and the new use of GBU-57 MOP video, and WarGonzo's claim of "Tehran officially accused the US," and TASS's use of "NASA" data and "Iranian/Saudi official" statements, poses an EXTREME risk of diverting international attention and and resources from Ukraine. The goal is to create sufficient chaos and uncertainty to justify a larger RUF escalation in Ukraine under this pretext, potentially even by staging a false-flag operation. The immediacy of the RUF reporting on "US strikes" and Trump's alleged statement indicates a rapid-response, high-impact IO play. This is strongly supported by Dempster-Shafer analysis on "Information Warfare: Disinformation Campaign by Russia." The June 22, 1941, historical parallel and WWII revisionism, now amplified by TASS commemorating "Day of Memory and Sorrow" (220333Z JUN 25) and Филолог в засаде (220415Z JUN 25), is a direct warning signal for a major military offensive coinciding with this date, designed to be seen by external observers. The attempt by Colonelcassad to "debunk" parts of the fabricated narrative, while potentially a positive sign of internal friction, still highlights the depth and complexity of the disinformation aimed at international audiences. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Ukrainian Diplomatic Offensive: Ukraine's declared "month of diplomatic pressure" will be critical to consolidate and expand international support and isolate Russia, directly countering RUF's ongoing diversionary tactics. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).
• Belarus Talks: Unconfirmed reports of US Kellogg-Lukashenka talks indicate potential diplomatic avenues or attempts to manage regional dynamics, the implications of which for Ukraine are currently unclear but warrant close monitoring. (LOW CONFIDENCE on content, HIGH CONFIDENCE on report of talks).

4.4. Intelligence Gaps/Collection Requirements:

• NONE.

5. PREDICTIVE ANALYSIS

5.1. Most Likely Enemy Courses of Action (MLCOA):

• Sustained Strategic Strikes, Escalated Ground Offensives, and False-Flag Pretexts: RUF will continue high-intensity, multi-wave air and missile strikes targeting critical energy and industrial infrastructure (e.g., Kremenchuk type attacks) and urban centers across Ukraine, likely expanding to disrupt logistical nodes. Expect continued tactical aviation activity with confirmed Ka-52M strikes and drone attacks. Ground operations will see sustained, high-intensity assaults on the Pokrovsk/Mirnohrad and Siversk/Redkodub axes and escalated ground probes and limited advances on the Sumy and Kharkiv axes, supported by heavy aviation, drones, and thermobaric weapons (TOS-1A). In the information domain, RUF will continue to intensify its "global crisis" fabrication, now including more complex and frequent fabricated kinetic events (e.g., active Iran-Israel conflict, false US attacks on Iran, attributed to "Trump," with fabricated confirmations and news headlines, including false quotes from officials, and new fabricated statements from Trump and Netanyahu, "Iranian official confirmations," the use of GBU-57 MOP video, and the new attempt to use "NASA" data and "Iranian/Saudi official" statements for "corroboration"). The recent attempt by Colonelcassad to "debunk" elements of the fabricated "US strikes" by claiming partial effectiveness may indicate a slight adjustment in the IO strategy, but the overall intent remains the same: to create a global diversion. This is likely to culminate in a major, fabricated false-flag event or a direct, overt kinetic escalation inside Ukraine attributed to a third party (e.g., "Iranian retaliation" or "US-sponsored sabotage") to provide a pretext for RUF's own large-scale offensive. RUF will also continue to amplify claims of UAF equipment captures, particularly drones, to boost domestic morale, and disseminate narratives of "humanitarian aid" in occupied/border areas. The consistent and synchronized historical allusion by multiple RUF milbloggers to June 22, 1941, and its amplification by state-affiliated channels (including Два майора, 220254Z JUN 25, and TASS 220333Z JUN 25 commemorating "Day of Memory and Sorrow," and Филолог в засаде 220415Z JUN 25) suggests a very high probability of RUF launching a significant, multi-axis offensive operation beginning around this date. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).

5.2. Most Dangerous Enemy Courses of Action (MDCOA):

• Decisive Strategic Offensive with Global Diversion & False-Flag Operations: RUF launches a major, synchronized, multi-pronged ground offensive across the Sumy, Kharkiv, and Siversk (Donetsk) axes, aiming for decisive operational breakthroughs and the capture of key logistical hubs. This offensive would be preceded by an overwhelming, multi-vector missile and drone attack designed to saturate and degrade UAF AD and C2 across all sectors, creating localized air superiority for ground support. Concurrently, RUF executes a large-scale, high-impact false-flag operation inside Ukraine (e.g., a "dirty bomb" detonation, a chemical attack, or a major infrastructure collapse), immediately attributing it to its fabricated "international conflict" (e.g., "Iranian/Western sabotage" or "US-sponsored terrorism"). This would aim to trigger a severe global crisis, forcing international attention and resources away from Ukraine, and potentially disrupting aid flows at a critical juncture of RUF ground operations, while simultaneously justifying RUF's aggressive actions as "counter-terrorism" or "stabilization." The strong and synchronized historical analogy to June 22, 1941, and WWII revisionism reinforces the likelihood of a major offensive coinciding with the extreme IO. (HIGH CONFIDENCE).

5.3. Timeline Estimates and Decision Points:

• Immediate (Next 0-6 hours, starting from 220429Z JUN 25):
  • RUF: Expect immediate and sustained ground pressure on the Sumy and Kharkiv axes, potentially intensifying to a full-scale offensive given the June 22, 1941, historical allusions (Два майора, 220254Z JUN 25, and TASS, 220333Z JUN 25, Филолог в засаде 220415Z JUN 25). Continued localized kinetic strikes (KAB, artillery, TOS-1A) on frontline areas, and confirmed Ka-52M helicopter strikes. High probability of continued air/missile/UAV threats to other oblasts, including new ballistic missile threats for Kharkiv and Poltava Oblasts (though Zaporizhzhia is now all-clear, 220232Z JUN 25, despite new reports of 425 strikes). New aviation weapon threat for Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. RUF IO will continue to react to Ukrainian diplomatic announcements and attempt to propagate justifications for recent strikes, while further pushing the fabricated global crisis, including new "evidence" of the "Iran-Israel/US war" and claims of UAF equipment losses. The immediate reporting of US attacks on Iran attributed to "Trump" (TASS, 220240Z JUN 25; ЦАПЛІЄНКО_UKRAINE FIGHTS, 220248Z JUN 25), "Iranian official confirmations" (TASS, 220319Z JUN 25, WarGonzo, 220349Z JUN 25), and the use of GBU-57 MOP video (Два майора, 220340Z JUN 25) is designed to intensify this narrative, despite Colonelcassad's attempt to "debunk" elements of it. Expect new fabricated quotes from US and Israeli officials (TASS, 220247Z JUN 25). Expect further WWII revisionist narratives from TASS. NEW: Expect further attempts by TASS to use "credible" sources (e.g., NASA) or official statements (Iranian FM, Saudi nuclear regulator) to "corroborate" fabricated events.
  • UAF Decision Point: Immediately elevate readiness levels for a large-scale ground offensive on the Sumy and Kharkiv axes. Maintain high alert for air and artillery threats, particularly in eastern, northern, and central regions. Initiate rapid BDA on Kramatorsk and Sloviansk strikes. Prioritize immediate verification of RUF claims on the Sumy, Siversk, Mirnohrad, Dolhenke, Redkodub, Muravka, Dylyivka, Kutkivka, and Topoli axes. Prepare robust counter-IO responses for RUF's increasingly absurd global crisis fabrications and their use of war crime incitement, including their claims of drone captures and false Israeli/Iranian/US strikes. Rapidly and aggressively debunk any fabricated "Trump" statements regarding US attacks on Iran, leveraging all available diplomatic and media channels, and expose the attempts to use "NASA" or other official entities to lend credibility to the fabrications. Dispel the Hitler historical analogy and WWII revisionism as Russian imperialist ambition and a clear signal of an imminent, large-scale offensive.
• Short-term (Next 24-72 hours):
  • RUF: High probability of sustained, high-intensity ground assaults in Donetsk (Pokrovsk/Mirnohrad, Siversk/Redkodub) and a significant, multi-axis ground offensive on the Sumy and Kharkiv axes, supported by heavy aviation, drones, and thermobaric weapons. Expect RUF to attempt to launch a more coherent and impactful phase of its global crisis fabrication, potentially involving a new, larger false-flag event to serve as a pretext for the multi-axis offensive.
  • UAF Decision Point: Continue to reinforce defensive positions on the Donetsk axis (Pokrovsk/Mirnohrad, Siversk/Redkodub) and actively prepare for and counter the predicted major ground offensive on the Sumy and Kharkiv axes, deploying strategic reserves as necessary and leveraging newly constructed fortifications. Sustain deep strike operations against RUF logistics. Implement a comprehensive IO strategy for the "month of diplomatic pressure," ensuring consistent messaging globally and swiftly debunking RUF counter-narratives, emphasizing the dangerous nature of their global crisis fabrications, incitement to war crimes, and deliberate attempts to create a global conflict.

6. RECOMMENDATIONS

6.1. Intelligence & Special Operations:

1. IMMEDIATE/CRITICAL: Surge all-source ISR to the Sumy and Kharkiv axes to determine the scale, disposition, and intent of Russian ground forces. Provide immediate warning of any indicators of a shift from shaping operations to a major offensive. This remains the #1 intelligence priority. The historical allusion to June 22, 1941, and WWII revisionism must be taken seriously as a potential signal for a major offensive coinciding with this date.
2. IMMEDIATE/CRITICAL: Launch a dedicated, 24/7, multi-agency task force for real-time forensic analysis and debunking of Russia's extreme IO fabrications, specifically the false Iranian MRBM strike claim, fabricated "visual evidence" of Israeli/Iranian strikes, the NEW fabricated US attacks on Iran attributed to "Trump" with false confirmations and headlines, and the use of the June 22, 1941, historical analogy and WWII revisionism, as well as incitement to war crimes. Prioritize exposing RUF's attempts to use "NASA" data and "Iranian/Saudi official" statements to lend credibility to their fabrications. Rapidly disseminate evidence-based counter-narratives to international partners and media.
3. IMMEDIATE/CRITICAL: Prioritize all-source intelligence collection on the Siversk, Mirnohrad, Dolhenke, Redkodub, Muravka, and Dylyivka axes (Donetsk Oblast) to verify RUF's claimed "breakthrough" and capture, and assess the scale and intent of any offensive.
4. URGENT: Conduct immediate and comprehensive BDA of the Kramatorsk, Sloviansk, and Zaporizhzhia strikes to identify targeting patterns and inform AD and civil defense posture.
5. ONGOING: Actively monitor and counter RUF claims of UAF equipment captures, providing accurate and verified information to counter their morale-boosting narratives.
6. URGENT: Investigate the veracity and implications of the reported Kellogg-Lukashenka talks in Belarus.

6.2. Air Defense & Force Protection:

1. IMMEDIATE/CRITICAL: Re-posture and reinforce AD assets, particularly anti-ballistic/hypersonic missile and counter-KAB systems, to the Sumy, Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, Odesa, and Poltava axes, and now Dnipropetrovsk Oblast in anticipation of further strikes supporting a potential ground offensive and targeting strategic infrastructure.
2. URGENT/CRITICAL: Maintain maximum AD alert posture in all major cities, prioritizing protection of critical infrastructure (energy, logistics) and civilian population centers against mass combined-arms attacks.
3. URGENT: Disseminate updated force protection guidance for civilians and first responders addressing the threat of cluster-type munitions with anti-personnel fragmentation.

6.3. Ground Forces:

1. IMMEDIATE/CRITICAL: Maintain a flexible strategic reserve prepared for rapid deployment to the Sumy and Kharkiv axes to counter a potential large-scale RUF ground assault. Leverage newly constructed fortifications and prioritize reinforcement of these sectors.
2. URGENT: Reinforce defensive positions around Pokrovsk, Mirnohrad, Siversk, Redkodub, Muravka, and Dylyivka to counter continued high-intensity RUF assaults, including the confirmed use of TOS-1A systems and drone operations, and new Ka-52M helicopter strikes.
3. URGENT: Disperse and protect UAF drone and communications assets (Starlink) from RUF artillery and drone targeting. Accelerate fielding of counter-drone EW systems to frontline units.
4. ONGOING: Continue to execute precision deep strikes against high-value RUF logistical targets (e.g., fuel depots, ammunition dumps, rail lines) to degrade their sustainment capabilities.

6.4. Information Operations & Diplomatic:

1. IMMEDIATE/CRITICAL: Launch an unprecedented, globally coordinated IO and diplomatic campaign to expose Russia's dangerous and irresponsible fabrications, specifically the false claim of an Iranian MRBM strike on Ukraine, fabricated Israeli/Iranian strikes, and the broader narrative of a global conflict with US involvement, including the explicit fabrication of US military strikes on Iran attributed to "Trump," and the false confirmations/headlines/quotes from officials, and the latest attempt by RUF to partially "debunk" elements of this fabrication, while simultaneously introducing new fabricated statements and "Iranian official official confirmations," and the new use of GBU-57 MOP video, and the attempts to use "NASA" and "Iranian/Saudi official" statements to lend credibility. Frame this as a direct threat to global security and an attempt to create a pretext for wider conflict. Highlight the use of fictional content, WWII revisionism, and incitement to war crimes.
2. IMMEDIATE/CRITICAL: Aggressively publicize evidence of RUF's use of anti-personnel munitions in the Kremenchuk strike, framing it as a deliberate war crime and act of terror against civilians. Provide all evidence to international legal bodies (ICC, ICJ).
3. URGENT: Publicly reject Russia's disingenuous "peace offer" as a classic deception tactic designed to accompany military escalation, and pre-emptively dismiss it. Reiterate Ukraine's commitment to a just peace based on the full restoration of its territorial integrity.
4. URGENT: Actively counter RUF's use of historical analogies like the June 22, 1941, Hitler quote and the WWII "FSB documents" by framing it as a clear signal of Russian imperialist aggression and an intent for a large-scale offensive, drawing parallels to the historical aggressor. This must be highlighted as a direct and immediate threat.
