03.02.2025The Day Alye Parusa Spoke Death
The morning began with Ukrainian drone attacks on Russian refineries, with reports of 70 drones targeting facilities in Volgograd, causing fires and power outages. Trump's announcement of planned talks with Moscow and Kyiv gained prominence in early coverage.

By midday, attention shifted to an explosion at Moscow's elite Alye Parusa complex, initially reported as targeting Armen Sarkisyan, founder of the Arbat battalion. The incident's coverage evolved from reports of injuries to confirmation of his death, with media gradually revealing details about a remote-controlled device.

Evening brought Trump's proposal to exchange U.S. aid for Ukrainian rare earth metals, while Russian government approved mechanisms for confiscating foreign assets. Reports emerged about changes in military medical examination rules, making draft exemptions more difficult to obtain.
