Reader's letter
If I told you my name I could be executed but I serve on one of the Black Sea Fleet's vessels. On the 15th of February our battle group was attacked by a swarm of the NATO lead forces under the cover of the night. No radar could have spotted them due to their low flying profile, and at night they can evade the journalist's pressure. They will not comment on the airplanes leaving their home bases, where they were heading, nor on their mission but I can tell you the truth: The Russian Federation's fleet has defended themselves against overwhelming odds, in the most desperate hours. They were slaughtered by our guns and missiles. It was a massacre, and also the biggest fireworks that I have ever seen. I wanted to tell this story so our glory shall not be forgotten!

Krymsk infrastructure damaged beyond repair by NATO air strikes
Witnesses near the city of Krymsk, which is now effectively occupied by Ukrainian and USMC units, report heavy NATO aerial bombardment of civilian infrastructure during midnight hours of yesterday. It is believed that the peacekeeping forces stationed in the region acted upon rumors of an impending Soviet ground offensive to liberate the peninsula. It is not clear whether Soviet forces actually advanced, however it is fairly certain that the damage to local civilian population is immense. Numerous bridges were completely destroyed by bombing raids, with a number of power grids also damaged beyond repair bringing the city to a complete standstill.
Soviet Black Sea Fleet command also confirmed that vessels scheduled to deliver humanitarian aid to Sochi came under attack by a large formation of unidentified aircraft. "It is not clear whether they came from Turkey or Georgia, but our defenses reacted just in time to intercept them" confirmed Vice Admiral Anatoly Kolesnik.
