Russian Su-27 approaching 20 meters to a Swedish plane over the Baltic

The Russian Su-27 fighter approached a distance of less than 20 meters to a Swedish radio intelligence aircraft over the Baltic Sea.

According to censor.NET with reference to "Echo of Moscow" , the armed forces of the Kingdom of Sweden reported this.

The country's defense minister, Peter Curtwick, in an interview with the Swedish radio said that the ministry is assessing the event as inappropriate behavior.

"Such incidents can lead to unwanted events, such as a collision, which is extremely risky," he said.

However, the Russian Ministry of Defense denied the dangerous convergence of the Russian fighter with the Swedish military aircraft over the Baltic. The Russian statement said the crew had approached a safe distance to identify the airspace, found out that it was the Gulf Stream reconnaissance aircraft of the Swedish Air Force, and then returned to the base of the airfield.

Ukraine News. Saturday 23 February. [Ukrainian sources] Censor_news_big3

Russian terrorist and writer who created his "own" battalion in the "DPR" and fled afterwards from Donbas, Zakhar Prilepin made public information that terrorists are suffering great losses.

As reported by censor.NET, he wrote about it on Facebook.

Prilepin said: "In our Donbas subdivision, as a result of constant firefighting and fighting, there are great losses. God sees me, I have tried all these years not to press for pity and never to report our losses." But... a nightmare that is happening.

Four died a week and a half ago. Four dead from the morning in the battle that is still going on. There are wounded. The intensity of the shelling and the number of losses in the area that fell to my fellow men, as in the worst months of this four-year war.

Probably worth knowing about it. I do not know what to say. Die friends Today, now."

The Russian mercenaries are firing their positions because of bad training

Ukraine News. Saturday 23 February. [Ukrainian sources] Censor_news_big3

The mercenaries of the Russian-occupying troops, because of the unpreparedness of the personnel, shell their positions and produce a large number of mines, of which 50% do not detonate.

According to censor.NET, referring to Ukrinform , Dmitry Gutsulyak, the press secretary of the Ministry of Defense, said such information from the Main Directorate of Intelligence during a briefing.

"On February 19-20, during attempts to inflict a fire on the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the mortar shells of the enemy fired at the positions of their troops. Moreover, due to the unpreparedness of the personnel in operations with mine equipment, about 50% of shotguns were not detonated," Gutsulyak said.

He added that the requirements to conduct combat training in the short term lead to the fact that the line of contact is sent to the unprepared personnel. Such actions by the occupants increase the danger to the local population due to the increased likelihood of defeat of civilian infrastructure and the number of unexploded mines on agricultural land.

"The prisoners were kept in unsuitable conditions for this, received a limited amount of food, water, were deprived of the possibility to normally meet the physiological needs and receive medical care", - added Lutsenko.

By the direct participation of or at his request, the occupiers carried out so-called "interrogation" and in fact terrible torture.

"People were shot at their legs, broken bones with hammers, tortured with a current and a hot soldering iron. The prisoners were choked, castrated and scalps removed from them," Lutsenko said.

Witnesses point out that subordinate Bezler lined up prisoners every night and shot every fifth. They were also forced to walk in a mined field. As a result, dozens of people perished. One witness was present during the shooting of more than 30 prisoners.

The minimum wage in Ukraine over the past three years has increased from $50 to $150

Ukraine News. Saturday 23 February. [Ukrainian sources] Censor_news_big3

The minimum wage in Ukraine over the past three years has tripled: in dollar terms from around $50 in 2016 to $150 in 2019.

Prime Minister Volodymyr Groisman announced this, according to censor.NET with reference to the Government portal.

"When our government started its duties, the minimum wage was about $ 50, and now $150. Growth - three times," said Groisman.

The same dynamics is demonstrated by the average wage. It now exceeds $ 380 in the dollar equivalent, although it was twice as low as three years ago.

"I understand that this is also a bit, but we are moving forward rather than backwards," said the prime minister. "The government's policy allowed the National Bank to form reserves at the beginning of the year at more than $20 billion. This is the maximum over the past five years. The inflation rate is now less than 10%, even though in 2015 they had more than 40%".

Groisman stressed that now it is necessary to continue the chosen policy, maintain financial stability and increase economic growth.

Pussy Riot staged a shocking action in support of Ukraine on Swedish TV

Pussy Rio t activists staged a live broadcast of Swedish television action against the construction of the North Stream 2 pipeline.

A member of the team, Alexey Knedlyakovsky, told about it on Facebook.

He reminded that Sweden agreed to use its exclusive economic zone and ports for the construction of the gas pipeline.

"When Pussy Riot activists were invited to Swedish television as guests in the studio, they immediately decided to take advantage of the situation and capture television. At the very height of the show, the activists closed the host of the huge Stop Nord Stream 2 banner," he wrote.

According to Knedlyakovskii, "frightened guests were hiding under the chairs, the guard was burrowing."

"But we turned to them, we turned to the whole of Europe, stop Putin, stop the North Stream 2, stop the war, help Ukraine!" - he added.



As reported by the "Apostrophe", earlier, representatives of the EU member-states governments, together with the European Parliament, agreed to revise the EU energy legislation , which takes into account the compromise between France and Germany and reduces the barriers for the construction of the Russian North Stream 2 pipeline.
