Russian Forces Press Toward Strategic Ukrainian City of Pokrovsk
Massive Ukrainian failures lead to loss of more land. Another couple weeks of this and Ukraine will be smaller then Monaco.

Thats all the United States gets for 2T? Hooties ran a carrier group off. Naval presence is more a liability than asset these days. Hypersonic missiles and drones have changed how forceis projected.

Hyper-sonic missiles? Not going to hit a moving target. Plus the HE warhead is not going to sink a CVN. If they shoot a nuke first then all bets are off. No possibility of a nuclear first strike. So that is out too.

First of all, the Russians still have their aircraft carrier, Big Smoky...
Also, this is not a naval war.

Hard to believe the Black Sea has been destroyed by a country with no navy, jus a bunch or RNC drones.

Moskva was sunk with a Neptun missile.

This story appears to be bogus.
The originator of these supposed quotes from Yevgeny Fyodorov is Anton Geraschenko — on X.
It pictures Fyodorov in a video. It looks a little bit odd, but I am not an expert in AI produced imagery. But . . . the figure is in uniform. That is not in doubt.
I went looking for Yevgeny Fyodorov and images for him. He has not held any ministerial positions that are military related. Every photo I found of him was in a business suit. He served 3 years in the military in the 1980s. Never again a posting for such things.
The avalanche of cover for this story looks contrived. I don’t think the video is him.
