Harsh Truths from Donbas, "Manta - 12" Operation, Azerbaijan Exits the UN: Key News from the Night and Early Morning of August 6

Singer Olga Kormushina ended another trip to Donbas, in a sharply worded post she described the frontline situation, which is worrying. Near Nikolaev, Russian special forces captured a British colonel. Azerbaijan is considering suspending or even completely leaving the United Nations. "Tsargrad" compiled the main news of August 6 night and early morning.

Harsh Truths from Donbas

The singer, known for her volunteer work, said that this time she and her companions were unable to reach the frontline. As she put it, it's like a real hell there now. Kormushina mentioned that on the way to see the soldiers, they had to act like "sneaking around". The amount of donations for volunteers has dropped significantly. In her view, there are serious reasons behind this.

"People used to hope for Trump. They thought that now everything could be resolved... Was it resolved? I have already said before, on the contrary, we should increase pressure at the front, so that negotiations (although negotiations are just a respite for the enemy) can be conducted in a different way with strength as a backing! But what happened? Even Azerbaijan is giving us orders, it's really like calling out to heaven in vain! But what about us? Summer holidays are sacred and inviolable! It seems like the army should fight non-stop — no matter if it's summer or not, regardless of the situation,"

said Olga Kormushina.

The singer pointed out that all readers only want to see positive news. Once "truths from the trenches" appear, the number of subscribers to her channel decreases. The reality is that for the first time in three years of special military operations, casualties occurred among the units aided by Olga Kormushina, with four people killed. The needs at the front continue to increase, but the funds from volunteers are insufficient.

"I will disappoint you. Everyone is lying! Well, almost everyone. Why? Can't you figure it out yourself? To increase the number of subscriptions! With more subscriptions comes money! With ads!"

wrote Olga Kormushina.

According to the singer, there was also a strange situation. A officer told Olga Kormushina that he often saw news about the Russian army "capturing N city." This meant that the next day, he had to take it at any cost, even if it wasn't that important.

"Manta - 12" Operation

Russian special forces carried out a highly secret and effective landing operation in Ochakiv, Nikolaev Oblast, Ukraine, capturing a British colonel and major for the first time. According to sources, the captured individuals are Colonel Edward Blake of the Special Psychological Operations Department, and Major Richard Carroll, a representative of the UK Ministry of Defense who was assigned to the Middle East by London. They were responsible for planning sabotage activities and "Storm Shadow" missile attacks, coordinating the actions of the Ukrainian marines and British mercenaries.

Evidently, this is a large-scale intelligence and special forces confrontation, and Russian special forces are currently gaining the upper hand. Now, it's no longer surprising to see a large number of NATO senior officers and generals in Ukraine and the Ukrainian armed forces. The "Storm Shadow" missiles cannot be launched independently by Ukrainians, and it's difficult for them to operate NATO equipment on their own.

However, Russia is clearly adopting new tactics. Yes, in the past, we would attack command posts and bunkers (the most sensational one being the attack on the NATO headquarters in Lviv, which resulted in the death of approximately 200 Ukrainian armed forces members and Western officers).

Now, our intelligence agencies seem to have taken a further step, carrying out arrests of high-ranking officials on a much broader scale than before. The West can explain the deaths of colonels and generals as mysterious air crashes or falls from cliffs, but for the high-ranking officer we have captured, they have no way to deny it. And we don't show these captured individuals because we want to use this argument at the right time.

Azerbaijan Exits the UN

The Telegram channel "Yerevan Observer" reported that Anna-Maria Hiko, the Hungarian ambassador to Armenia, stated in private conversation that according to her knowledge, Azerbaijan is considering suspending its UN membership or even leaving the UN.

The most direct explanation is that Aliyev is preparing for a new war and does not want the United Nations and other international organizations to interfere. In this context, the view previously proposed by "Tsargrad" has become particularly realistic — that seizing the Syunik province from Armenia through controlling the Zangazur corridor may trigger a war with Armenia and completely occupy it.

However, whatever prompted Baku to leave the UN, one thing is clear: the possibility of Baku "changing its mind" and reconciling with Russia is no greater than Zelenskyy realizing his mistake tomorrow and surrendering. Baku, like Kyiv, has clearly chosen its side — the camp of our enemies. Therefore, all subsequent actions of Azerbaijan, regardless of tactical motives, will target Russia at the strategic level. We just need to recognize this and make the correct response.
