Russia has released a propaganda documentary titled โSVOi Detiโ (โOur Special Military Operation Childrenโ). It tells the story of Ukrainian children taken to Russian recreational camps as part of a youth program called โPoslezavtraโ (The Day After Tomorrow) for what Moscow calls โintegration sessions.โ Both were produced by Russiaโs childrenโs rights commissioner, Maria Lvova-Belova, who faces an arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court for her role in the illegal deportation of Ukrainian children from occupied territories. Officials in Kyiv, independent researchers, and journalists believe that programs like โPoslezavtraโ are designed to indoctrinate and re-educate Ukrainian children. The film premiered on May 26, 2026, at the Gorky Film Studio, according to a post on Lvova-Belovaโs Telegram channel. Three days later, it was released on the Okko streaming platform. Hereโs what we know about the movie and its creators.
A video compilation of statements by pro-Kremlin pundit Boris Rozhin about the Russian militaryโs endless assault on the village of Mala Tokmachka in Ukraineโs Zaporizhzhia region surfaced in mid-April and quickly became the most popular military meme so far in 2026. The villageโs name had already appeared regularly in dispatches from Russian milbloggers as โnearly clearedโ โ week after week, month after month. As the meme evolved, it took on a range of meanings, becoming a commentary on the lies of Russian military officials and their blogger allies, and a symbol of the senselessness of a war in which hundreds of lives have been spent fighting over a single small village. The name has also been used as shorthand for the gap between the Russian militaryโs ambitions and its capabilities (โWeโll take Tokmachka โ then we march on Europeโ). Ukrainian media outlets and bloggers, meanwhile, have turned Mala Tokmachka into a symbol of the Ukrainian Armed Forcesโ resilience. By their count, the battle has lasted more than 1,500 days, ostensibly longer than any successful defense in world history. Meduza examines how Mala Tokmachka became so significant to both Moscow and Kyiv.

A series of large-scale strikes by the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) on Bryansk, Moscow, Perm, Tuapse, and many other targets deep inside Russia has left a clear impression: Kyivโs long-range campaign is hitting harder than it used to. The images are certainly vivid: โoil rainโ blanketing an entire city, a mass drone raid on Russiaโs capital, and refineries under near constant attack. Despite all this activity, however, itโs hard to tell whether anything has changed in Ukraineโs strategy. Assessing the frequency and effectiveness of the strikes is challenging โ both Moscow and Kyiv conceal their real losses and exaggerate the impact of their own strikes. The available sources that offer a reliable picture of the long-range warโs progress are few and far between. Meduza examines what we can confirm under these conditions.

Russiaโs Defense Ministry later confirmed that it had used the Oreshnik system โ only the third time it has done so during the full-scale war.
