30.10.2025 ⇢ The Day Trump Ordered Nuclear Tests
⌨Russian media throughout the day centered on US President Trump's directive to immediately commence nuclear weapons tests. This followed earlier reports of Russia's own "Poseidon" and "Burevestnik" tests, with the Kremlin clarifying that these Russian tests were not nuclear. Discussions also emerged regarding a potential Russian "second strike" scenario.
Later in the day, Russian media shifted focus to President Putin's order for the Ministry of Defense to grant foreign and Ukrainian journalists access to areas where Ukrainian forces are encircled, with a temporary cessation of hostilities. Threats to journalists visiting these "cauldrons" were subsequently reported.
Other notable stories included Lukoil's sale of foreign assets to Gunvor, and reports of 170 Ukrainian drones destroyed overnight.
