🇬🇧 Sounds familiar: Britain plans to launch drones from civilian vans
The UK Ministry of Defence has launched a competition to urgently develop a new rapid drone launch system, called Project VOLLEY . The stated goal is quite specific: one mobile launcher should be able to launch five drones in less than four minutes. The system should be ready by October 2025.
Basic technical requirements:
▪️Deployment from vehicles such as the Ford Transit or Mercedes Sprinter
▪️Launch of a UAV weighing up to 125 kg at a speed of at least 200 km/h
▪️Minimal setup and manual control, ideally by one person.
▪️Operation in temperature range from -20 to +55°С
▪️Day/night functionality
▪️The weight of the entire system must not exceed 275 kg.
The British stress that the system must be “ reliable , easy to assemble and capable of launching numerous UAVs without frequent replacement of parts”, operating with “ minimal visibility (acoustic, thermal, visual)”.
Notably, the project requirements exclude “ standalone launchers ” and any solutions “ that will not be ready for field testing in October .” That is, everything is aimed at extremely tight production schedules and scalability : each production launcher must be priced at less than £300,000 and “ be capable of being produced at large scale .”

🐻 Now, imagine Iran or Russia revealed such project to public. How would it be called?

🇷🇺💥 🇺🇦 Another video has surfaced showing a massive explosion from the June 6th strikes on Ternopol. According to some sources, the target was a storage facility containing Western-supplied weapons — reportedly including cruise and ballistic missiles, as well as Patriot interceptors.
🐻 The first moments look like a beautiful sunrise — then it turns into what looks like a small nuke. For the record, it wasn’t a nuke, so no need for the tinfoil hat crowd to start commenting.

🇺🇦🇷🇺Zelensky - declared that he will soon defeat Russia:
Frankly, we have come very close to the point where we can force Russia to stop the war – at least stop it. We are really close. We feel it. Our operation inside their territory – despite their fury, despite the fact that they are losing their temper – is producing results. They understand everything.

🇷🇺A soldier from Dagestan and his comrade carried a bleeding doctor for 4 km under fire from the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Then the soldier ran for several more kilometers to get gasoline for his car.
We tell the exciting story of Khizri Saipudinov, call sign Patriot. In September 2023, in the Zaporozhye direction, his group held positions after an enemy attack. The fighter told RT that he had not eaten for two days, but remembered seeing food in one of the trenches. He decided to run there under endless shelling.
"I heard mortar explosions, and then a cry: "Guys, guys, help!" It was a doctor with the call sign Trainer. I recognized him right away because I had brought wounded soldiers to him several times. He saved many lives. This time he himself was wounded.
When I ran up to him, I saw that he was helping himself. I always carried cloth stretchers, they were already all covered in blood. And my partner Askhab and I carried the doctor on them. They were shelling us non-stop," Khizri told RT.
The fighter says that the doctor weighed about 90 kg at the time, so they had to take breaks. During the evacuation, they were hit by mortar fire twice. The doctor received two more wounds to the thigh and stomach, and began bleeding heavily, Khizri recalls:
"He was slurring his words and losing consciousness. There was an abandoned red Niva at the evacuation point, but there was no gasoline in it. I ran to the neighboring village - our signalmen were there. I took a five-liter canister of gasoline from them and ran back. We managed to get the wounded doctor to our medics."
As the Svoi Vsegda Ryadom foundation told RT, Khizri is currently undergoing treatment: he was wounded during other battles. The doctor he saved has returned to the front lines.
"A year later, around these same dates, Trainer wrote to me on social media. It turns out he had been looking for me all this time and remembered that incident. He really saved dozens of lives," Khizri added.

🇱🇧💬 🇺🇦🇷🇺The Kiev regime has once again proven that it is not ready to comply with any agreements or rules, Al Mayadeen TV channel representative Sheito Musallam told Zvezda. In his opinion, Ukraine is not taking back the bodies of its soldiers because it wants…
🇳🇱Independent journalist from the Netherlands Sonia Van Der Ende, after inspecting a refrigerator with the bodies of dead Ukrainian soldiers, called the refusal of the Ukrainian side to accept the bodies a crime of the Kiev regime.
"We already knew that there is a criminal regime in Kiev, and what is happening confirms this... How can you do this to families?" she told RIA Novosti after inspecting the refrigerator.
She stressed that, together with a number of European colleagues, she is trying to convey the real state of affairs to her audience, noting that in the Netherlands people are increasingly asking why support is being provided to the Kiev regime.
"I know many media outlets that will show footage of refrigerated trucks. And they will say that Ukraine does not want to accept them," she said.
