☢️ Briefing on radiation security threats by the chief of nuclear, biological and chemical protection troops Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov

◽️ The Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation has information about Kiev regime’s planning to commit a provocation by exploding the so-called ‘dirty bomb’ or low-power nuclear warhead.

◽️ The provocation is aimed at accusing Russia of using mass destruction weapon at the Ukrainian theatre of operations that would launch a powerful anti-Russian campaign in order to undermine the confidence in Moscow.

⚡️ It is to be recalled that the President Zelensky announced his intention to re-establish Ukraine as a nuclear-armed State at the Munich Security Conference dated 19 February 2022.

◽️ It should also be noted that President Zelensky has repeatedly called on NATO countries to launch a strike at the Russian Federation since the beginning of the special military operation. ‘What does NATO have to do? We need pre-emptive strikes, so that they’ll know what will happen to them if they use (nukes). And not the other way around, don’t wait for Russia’s nuclear strikes...’

◽️ Recently, in an interview to Canadian TV channels on 22 October, Zelensky urged the world to strike Kremlin if Russia launches attacks at the ‘decision-making centres’ in Bankovaya street where the Office of the President of Ukraine is located.

​​⚡️ We would like to recall the possibility of a complicated radiation situation that can evolve around the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, the largest nuclear plant in Europe.

◽️ From 24 February until now, the territory of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant has suffered 39 fire attacks launched by the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), including 10 launched by unmanned aerial vehicles and 29 by various artillery systems.

◽️ The attacks launched by the AFU at the plant did not cause any anxiety of the world community as, according to various U.S. experts, an impact of large-calibre artillery shells to spent nuclear fuel containers will not cause a considerable risk, and the nuclear reactors are resistible to a civilian airplane crash.

◽️ However, the forecast of our experts about the radiation situation’s development furtherly confirmed by relevant European scientific organisations has shown that the release of radioactive substances will affect almost whole Europe.

◽️ Moreover, despite the visit of the IAEA Director General R. Grossi, the AFU have not abandoned their attempts to carry out a subversive operation to capture the plant. On 1, 15, 30 September and 17 October, special units of the AFU attempted to land their forces through the Kakhovka reservoir and to take the nuclear power plant under control.

​​⚡️ According to the available information, two organisations of Ukraine have been directly ordered to create the so-called ‘dirty bomb’. The works are at their concluding stage.

◽️ Moreover, we have information about contacts between the Office of the President of Ukraine and representatives of the United Kingdom regarding the possible reception of technologies to create nuclear weapons.

◽️ With this purpose, Ukraine has got relevant production and scientific capacities. There are enterprises of nuclear industry in Ukraine that possess stockpiles of radioactive substances that can be used for creating the ‘dirty bomb’. These concern three operating nuclear power plants: the Yuzhnoukrainsk, Khmelnitsky and Rovno nuclear power plants with nine storage pools for spent nuclear fuel that contain up to 1.5 thousand tonnes of uranium enriched with up to 1.5% of oxide.

◽️ Over 22,000 fuel assemblies (21,284 and 1,692 respectively) are stored at the inoperable Chernobyl nuclear power plant with radioactive waste repositories, as well as products that suppose using Uranium-235 and Plutonium-239 that constitute the backbone of a nuclear charge.

◽️ More than 50,000 m³ of radioactive waste that are also apt as the backbone for creating the ‘dirty bomb’ can be stored at the recently established enterprise ‘Vektor’ designed for radioactive waste reprocessing at the radioactive waste disposal sites ‘Buryakovka’, ‘Podlesny’, and ‘Rossokha’ at Pridneprovsky chemical plant.

◽️ Moreover, the Eastern Mining and Processing Plant extracts uranium ore at two of the three shafts with a capacity of up to 1,000 tonnes per year (the plant includes three shafts for extracting uranium ore, two of them – Ingulskaya and Smolinskaya – are operable, while one of them – Novokonstantinovskaya – is currently under construction).

◽️ It is also to be emphasised that Ukraine has at its disposal a scientific base: the Kharkov Institute of Physics and Technology. Its scientists were involved in the nuclear programme of the USSR where various testing systems are still in operation, including Uragan thermonuclear systems. The second base is the Institute for Nuclear Research of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine located in Kiev. Its BBP-M reactor is used for research that supposes the employment of high-activity radioactive materials.

​​⚡ I want to recall that the ‘dirty bomb’ constitutes a container with radioactive isotopes and explosive charge. In case of exploding the charge, the container is to be destroyed, and the radioactive substance is to be pulverised by a blast wave that produces radioactive contamination at large areas, and can cause a radiation morbidity.

◻ Uranium oxide that forms part of spent fuel elements stored at spent nuclear fuel and storage pools of nuclear power plants can be used as the radioactive substance. Moreover, it concerns the radioactive substances derived from the spent nuclear fuel storages of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant.

◻ The Kiev regime plans to camouflage the explosion of this kind of ordnance under an extraordinary effect of Russian low-power nuclear warhead that contains highly enriched uranium in its charge. The presence of radioactive isotopes in the air will be recorded by the sensors of the International Monitoring System installed in Europe with further accusation of the Russian Federation of using tactical nuclear weapons.

​​⚡ It is to be noted that this kind of information warfare technologies have already been used by the West in Syria when the White Helmets were filming propaganda footage about the employment of chemical weapons by the governmental forces there.

◻ One of the most resonant and widely distributed episodes is the provocation committed by the abovementioned non-governmental organisation and their patrons on 4 April 2017 in Khan Sheikhoun.

◻ Pay attention to the picture where the people who are taking samples of soil have no individual protection means. But it does not seem to bother anyone! Especially those who took the decision to launch a missile strike at the territory of the sovereign country.

◻ Using this provocation as a pretext, the Americans launched the missile strike at Shayrat airbase without waiting for an investigation to begin and, all the more, a decision of the UN Security Council, grossly violating the international law.

◻ This scenario is highly probable to be used in this case, too. Detonation of a radiological explosive device will inevitably lead to radiological contamination covering up to several thousands of square metres.

◻ To summarise, Ukraine has got a motive to use the ‘dirty bomb’, as well as scientific, technical and production capacities to create it. Ukraine expects ‘dirty-bomb’ provocation to intimidate the population, increase the flow of refugees, and accuse the Russian Federation of nuclear terrorism.

❗The Ministry of Defence has arranged for countering possible provocations of Ukraine: the means and forces are alerted to operate amid radioactive contamination.

❓ In case you had questions on the Black Sea Grain Initiative:

📊 As of October 14, 2022, 334 vessels delivered 7,448,204 metric tons of grain and other foodstuffs from Ukraine.

🔸 52,5% went to rich countries with developed economies.

🔸 22% went to developing countries with “above average” economies.

🇺🇳 2,5% was bought out by the UN World Food Programme for its for its operations in Afghanistan, Djibouti, Yemen, Somalia and Ethiopia.

❗️ Only 23% went directly to the countries with struggling economies, the actual “countries-in-need”.

🌾 Even though the Black Sea Grain Initiative undoubtedly contributes to addressing the global food crisis, it is far from being the “key” to “saving the poor countries from starvation”. Don’t let the Western propaganda fool you.

Foreign trade turnover of goods and services increased in most EAEU States
According to the balance of payments, the export and import of goods and services increased in most Member States in H1 of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.

🇷🇺 🤝 🇵🇭 On October 25, 2022, Russian Ambassador to the Philippines H.E.Marat Pavlov met Undersecretary for Foreign Affairs of the Republic of the Philippines H.E. Carlos Sorreta, former Ambassador of the Philippines to Russia. Both sides discussed topical issues of mutual interest.

🎙 Highlights from President Vladimir Putin's remarks at the session of the Council of Heads of the CIS Security and Intelligence Agencies:

🔸 The world is changing and becoming multipolar before our very eyes.

🔸 Some members of the international community are doing everything in their power to preserve their faltering hegemony.

🔸 Attempts continue to be made to implement "colour revolution" scenarios, methods involving nationalism and extremism are employed, and armed conflicts, which directly threaten the security of all CIS members, are being stoked.

🔸 Ukraine has been made an instrument of US foreign policy. The country has actually lost its sovereignty and is being directly governed by the US, which is using it as a battering ram against Russia.

🔸 The black market in arms operating in Ukraine is creating serious challenges. There is a persistent risk of criminals getting hold of more powerful weapons, including portable air defence systems and precision weapons.

⚡️ Excerpts from President Vladimir Putin's remarks at the Valdai International Discussion Club meeting, October 27, 2022

💬 The so-called West which is, of course, a theoretical construct since it is not united and clearly is a highly complex conglomerate, but I will still say that the West has taken a number of steps in recent years and especially in recent months that are designed to escalate the system-wide crisis.

As a matter of fact, they always seek to aggravate matters, which is nothing new, either. This includes:

- the stoking of war in Ukraine,
- the provocations around Taiwan,
- the destabilisation of the global food and energy markets.

To be sure, the latter was, of course, not done on purpose, there is no doubt about it. The destabilisation of the energy market resulted from a number of systemic missteps made by the Western authorities that I mentioned above. As we can see now, the situation was further aggravated by the destruction of the pan-European gas pipelines. This is something otherworldly altogether, but we are nevertheless witnessing these sad developments.

Global power is exactly what the so-called West has at stake in its game. But this game is certainly dangerous, bloody and, I would say, dirty. It denies the sovereignty of countries and peoples, their identity and uniqueness, and tramples upon other states’ interests.

Humankind is at a fork in the road:

🪧 either keep accumulating problems & eventually get crushed under their weight,

🪧 or work together to find solutions – even imperfect ones, as long as they work – that can make our world a more stable, safer place.

I have always believed in the power of common sense.

Therefore, I am convinced that sooner or later both the new centres of the multipolar international order and the West will have to start a dialogue on an equal footing about a common future for us all, and the sooner the better, of course.

🕯 Russian Embassy in Manila expresses its deep condolences to the people of the Philippines following tragic aftermath of the typhoon #Paeng.

We share the grief of those who lost their family members & friends and wish a speedy recovery to all those injured.

⚡️ Russia's Ministry of Defence:

Today at 4.20 am, the Kiev regime carried out a terrorist attack against the ships of the Black Sea Fleet and civilian ships that were on the outer and inner roadsteads of the Sevastopol base. The attack involved nine unmanned aerial vehicles and seven autonomous maritime drones.

❗️ It should be emphasised that the ships of the Black Sea Fleet that were subjected to the terrorist attack are involved in ensuring the security of the ‘grain corridor’ as part of an international initiative to export agricultural products from Ukrainian ports.

The preparation of this terrorist act and the training of military personnel of 73rd Marine Special Operations Center were carried out under supervision of British specialists 🇬🇧 in the city of Ochakov, Nikolayev region in Ukraine.

⚠️ According to the available information, representatives of this unit from the British Navy were involved in plotting, organising, and implementation of the terrorist attack in the Baltic Sea on 26 September this year to blow up the Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2 gas pipelines.

#Opinion by Maria Zakharova

💬 European Commissioner for Internal Market Thierry Breton told entrepreneur Elon Musk that Twitter will be operating in the European Union in accordance with the local rules: “In Europe, the bird will fly by our rules.”

I would like to point out that the European Commissioner wrote this in his Twitter account.

They are all collectively confused, if not mad, about their “rules” whose dominance has driven the law and jurisprudence to the point of absurdity.

If you cite the “rules”, you should demonstrate them.

If, for many years, you tried to convince everyone that freedom of speech must never be violated, you should stay true to your words.

If the first and the second are a dogma, then it should remain as such for its creators in the first place.

⚠️ To the attention of European Commissioner Thierry Breton, who recently told new Twitter CEO Elon Musk how the social network will be working in the EU.

This is how Twitter operates in this blessed garden now: it segregates, discriminates and censors. Everything as per Brussels’ latest “digital rules.”

Here is a screenshot showing how the RT account is displayed in the EU area.
