Revelations 6:3-4 “when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, “Come!” 4 And out came another horse, bright red. Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.
Important Takeaways:
- Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskiy has again warned Russia may be planning to “simulate an attack” the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, claiming that Russian troops have placed “objects resembling explosives” on the roofs of buildings at the site.
- “There is a serious threat because Russia is technically ready to provoke a local explosion at the station, which could lead to a [radiation] release,” Zelenskiy said
- Russian troops seized the station, Europe’s largest nuclear facility, in February 2022. Each side has since regularly accused the other of shelling around the plant and risking a major nuclear mishap.
- While the reactors would be difficult to damage, according to former plant workers who spoke to the Guardian, the small cooling pond is vulnerable to an explosion, which could cause partial nuclear meltdown comparable to the 1979 Three Mile Island accident in the US.
- Oleksiy Kovynyev, a former senior engineer, said that in this scenario, most radiation would be contained, but that if ventilation channels were opened, radiation could be released.

Important Takeaways:
- Plan to blow up Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant approved, situation has never been so severe before ― Chief of Defense Intelligence
- Source: Budanov, in an interview with The New Statesman, as cited by Defense Intelligence website
- Quote: “The situation has never been as severe as now.”
- Details: According to Budanov, Russia has completed preparations for the terrorist attack on the ZNPP.
- When asked whether the Russians decided to blow up the power plant, Budanov said the plan was entirely “drafted and approved.” The only element missing is the order to act. “Then it can happen in a matter of minutes,” he said.
- Ukrainian intelligence has determined that Russian troops have moved vehicles packed with explosives to four of the six power units.
- According to the head of the Defense Intelligence, Russia’s order to commit a terrorist attack on the ZNPP may have been caused by the defeat of the Russian occupation forces on the Left Bank of Dnipro ― Russia considers creation of a nuclear disaster zone a safeguard for the further advance of the defense forces of Ukraine.
- There is frustration in Ukrainian intelligence and government circles that the international community’s response to the destruction of the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant dam on 6 June was so muted that this could provoke further use of “scorched Earth tactic,” the newspaper notes.

- The M-18 bridge was marked on the map released by the former commander of the US Army in Europe, General Ben Hodges, and presented to WarNews247 a few days ago.
- A little over 24 hours earlier, the Ukrainians again struck with British Storm Shadows the railway station and a large Russian ammunition depot in Rykove, Kherson.
- The Ukrainians claim that the “hit on the bridge is very serious as 70% of the Army’s transports pass through there”.

Important Takeaways:
- Ukraine-Russia war: Ukraine ‘planning Storm Shadow attack on Crimea’
- Ukraine is reportedly planning to attack occupied Crimea with Himars and British Storm Shadow missile, Russia has claimed in a warning to Kyiv and the West.
- Sergei Shoigu, the Russian defense minister, said that Russia would retaliate if Ukraine started hitting the territory that Vladimir Putin annexed in 2014
- “The use of these missiles outside the zone of our special military operation would mean that the United States and Britain would be fully dragged into the conflict and would entail immediate strikes on decision-making centers in Ukraine,” warned Mr Shoigu.
- Crimea may become within target of Ukraine’s arsenal of missiles and artillery as its counter offensive pushes further south. Ukraine says it has recaptured 113 square km (44 square miles) of land from Russian forces.

Revelations 13:16-18 “Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666.”
Important Takeaways:

- In total, the United States has committed up to $40 billion in security assistance to Ukraine since Russia’s invasion on Feb. 24, 2022.

Important Takeaways:
- A Massive Ukraine Dam Has Been Destroyed, And Both Sides Are Pointing Fingers.
- The destruction of a Ukrainian dam approaching the scale of America’s Hoover Dam has unleashed a devastating torrent of water in the country’s south. Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky blamed Russia for damage to the Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant.
- Russian officials, however, say the attack on the dam was a “deliberate act of sabotage” by Ukraine, “linked to the fact that, having begun large-scale offensive operations two days ago, the Ukrainian armed forces are not achieving their aims.”
- The BBC opines that Ukraine’s claims are “plausible” given major flooding in the region could hinder a Ukrainian counter-offensive – but the Ukrainians told The Washington Post in December that they had been considered blowing the dam, and even conducted a successful HIMARS test strike on its floodgates:
- “The Ukrainians… even conducted a test strike with a HIMARS launcher on one of the floodgates at the Nova Kakhovka dam, making three holes in the metal to see if the Dnieper’s water could be raised enough to stymie Russian crossings but not flood nearby villages.”
- – Washington Post, December 29 2022
- Several villages are currently believed to be submerged. The dam held back a volume of water roughly equivalent to the Great Salt Lake in Utah.

Important Takeaways:
- Russia threatens Britain with ‘an adequate response from our military’ after UK agrees to supply Ukraine with Storm Shadow long-range cruise missiles
- Ukraine has been asking for months for long-range missiles, but support provided by Britain and other allies such as the United States has previously been limited to shorter range weapons.
- But UK Defense Secretary Ben Wallace today confirmed that Britain is sending the Storm Shadow missiles to Ukraine, a decision that prompted a furious response from the Kremlin.
- The Kremlin said the reports would require ‘an adequate response from our military’.
- Moscow’s main target for months has been the small eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut, which it has come close to capturing but not quite taken in what would be its sole prize after months of the bloodiest ground combat in Europe since World War Two.
- Kyiv says it has pushed Russian forces back over the past two days near Bakhmut in small-scale local assaults, but a counteroffensive involving tens of thousands of troops and hundreds of new Western tanks has yet to begin.
- ‘We still need a bit more time,’ President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Thursday.

Important Takeaways:
- More Money! U.S. to Hand Over Another $1.2 Billion in Aid to Ukraine: Report
- The package is said to be valued at $1.2 billion. It will reportedly be used to purchase various air defense equipment for the country, alongside more ammo for artillery and rocket systems.
- According to a report by the Associated Press, the Joe Biden administration could announce the newest batch of military funding as early as Tuesday, with the package set to coincide with a Ukrainian counteroffensive against invading Russian forces.

- Unlike many previous American donations, however, the equipment being sent east by the Democrat government as part of this package will reportedly not be sourced from existing Pentagon munitions stocks.
- Instead, the federal government will reportedly use taxpayer dollars to purchase brand-new equipment from various defense contractors, which will then be delivered to Ukraine over the coming months and years.
