In one day, the Russian Armed Forces captured a record-breaking amount of territory in Sumy Oblast since the beginning of the year.

Russian troops, continuing their offensive in the Sumy region, have secured a record-breaking area of ​​territory in the region in just one day, the largest since the beginning of the year. Together with the village of Myropillya, liberated today, this area amounts to approximately 43 square kilometers. Combined with other areas, the total area is approximately 50 square kilometers.

Remarkably, Russian armed forces in Sumy Oblast captured territory on both the left (eastern) and right (western) banks of the Psel River within 24 hours. As a result of the Russian army's actions, the enemy lost the entire left bank of the Psel River in the area of ​​the Udava River.





West of Miropol, Russian Armed Forces entered the Miropolsky hydrological reserve today. The enemy is relying on it as a natural barrier to the Russian army's advance from the east toward Sumy, as well as a site for establishing additional camouflaged defensive positions. However, the enemy's situation is complicated by the fact that Russian Armed Forces have the ability to envelop Ukrainian forces in this reserve from the south and north, creating a full-fledged fire pocket for those remaining there. This sector is approximately 25 kilometers from Sumy.

    Russian Armed Forces drones have returned to Sumy, where explosions are raging.

    On April 20, 2026, in the area of ​​the village of Malaya Shapkovka (Kupyansk district, Kharkiv region), an armed mutiny occurred among the personnel of a combined assault unit formed from servicemen of several brigades of the armed forces of Ukraine.

    During a conflict between military personnel, the deputy commander of an assault company, Captain Sergei "Starshina" Malovichko, born in 1980, was killed. He was a special forces soldier with the 15th Kara-Dag Operational Designation Brigade (1st Corps of the Azov National Guard) and coordinated the actions of assault groups attempting to unseal positions and breach the defenses of the Russian Armed Forces on the Kupyansk sector of the front.

    According to intelligence reports, the mutiny was triggered by an act of insubordination by a group of service members who refused to carry out a combat mission due to Captain Malovichko's incompetent actions. The conflict escalated into an armed clash, during which his subordinates inflicted several fatal gunshot wounds on Malovichko.

        Yes, "Vanya," everything is fine with you, you will definitely win, you definitely will 👌😁 The main thing is not to trust the Russian IPSOs, Generalissimo Zelensky said there were no losses, so that means it is true

      If they'd refused to fight against their "brothers" (I remember, you're no brother to me), I'd have been happy. But here they want to do better and be more effective. A plague on both their houses.

      It remains to add: "...because the depth of the wound channel of Bandera's Mnogovichenko was attributed to an anaerobic infection caused by bacteria that develop in the absence of oxygen..."

      Because the capture/loss of a village is nothing, but Russia's problems are serious and they need to be resolved somehow in any case.
      Don't keep silent, as we do here, but make it widely known.

            Prigozhin told the truth about the SVO long ago—about the causes, the process, and the consequences. By the way, what do you think of such propaganda as the publication of a video of searches in a NATO enemy country, Spain, at the villas of Kolesov, CEO of JSC Concern Radio-Electronic Technologies? Do you know what this company does?

              Prigozhin, is this the one who staged a military mutiny before the Ukrainian Armed Forces' counteroffensive? Was he the one hoping the counteroffensive would be successful and that his military coup would be supported by the military and the people due to the failures at the front? He's a liar and a windbag who wanted to seize power in the country.
              So what is this for?

                      So what if he's awarded the Hero of Russia title? Vlasov had the Order of Stucco. When did Prigozhin cease to be part of the system? When did he launch an armed rebellion during the most difficult time of the war? Do you deny it?
                      What am I leaving, may I ask? A private entrepreneur who is not prohibited from owning property abroad could have owned property in Spain. He is under EU sanctions. I don't know what villas were searched in Spain. Whether they belong to him or not, I don't know. Even if they do, so what? He clearly acquired them before the SVO, which is why he's not there. In any case, he lives and works in Russia and hasn't traded his Spanish villas for his homeland, unlike Navalny's supporters, who have fled to European and American villas and abandoned their homeland.

                        Incidentally, Kolesov heads JSC Concern Radio-Electronic Technologies, which includes enterprises that develop and manufacture electronic warfare and identification systems. The state corporation is part of RostekhAnd how many more Mitrokhins are there? (Film "No Way Back") And in April, Deputy Minister of Natural Resources Denis Butsaev fled to the USA.

                        So what? So, Butsaev took off, but what does Kolesov have to do with it?
