[Sun UK] A WOMAN who claimed for decades to be Vladmir Putin's real mum has died in poverty aged 97, it was revealed today.
Vera Putina swore Russian tyrant Putin was born to her from an affair with a married man - a version of history that has been totally shunned by Mad Vlad.
But she went on to produce pictures of her son as a boy bearing an uncanny resemblance to the hollow-eyed monster now reaping carnage in Ukraine.
Vera, from the dirt-poor village of Metekhi in the former Soviet state of Georgia, claimed the Russian president is the unhappy little boy she gave away at the age of 10.
Her intriguing account also details his traumatic childhood - which may go some way to explain the brutal psyche of the Kremlin kingpin.
An exclusive Sun interview given before her death also lays bare her heartbreak that the man she was so proud of was too cold to acknowledge the hidden truth.
And she went to her grave this week having had no contact for 60 years with the man she claimed to love.
Her account is at odds with Vlad's official story - which states his parents were Vladimir Putin Snr. and Maria Shelomova.
And her account has never been categorically proven.
Sources in Georgia confirmed yesterday that Vera died of "old age" in the capital Tbilisi and was buried in her native Metekhi on Tuesday.
The tiny retired engineer claimed little Vlad - who she nicknamed Vova - spent his early childhood in the village from when he was two-and-a-half.
And she told how her son’s early years were scarred by terror, abuse and neglect at the hands of his stepfather Georgi after she married.
At the age of 10 she told how her sad-eyed son was sent back to his grandparents in Ochyor, Russia, and never came back..
Records unearthed in the archives of Metekhi's closest town, Caspi, show a Vladimir Putin was registered at Metekhi school from 1959 to 1960 and was born Georgian, not Russian.
Vera’s account is at odds with the official version of 70-year-old Putin’s childhood, which says he was born in 1952 in Leningrad - now St Petersburg - and was the third son of a Russian couple.
His brother Albert, born in the 1930s, died in infancy and his other sibling Viktor, born in 1940, died of starvation in 1942 during the Siege of Leningrad, according to Putin’s official account.
But suspicious holes in the timings given have added weight to Vera’s claims that their leader is two years older, illegitimate and not Russian - which have always been vehemently denied by the Kremlin.
Vera told The Sun in one of her last interviews: "My dream is not to die without Vova seeing me and talking to me at least once.
"I often see him in my dreams, but he doesn’t want to talk to me. Both in life and in dreams, he is upset about what I did, he cannot forgive me".
Telling of how her son’s childhood trauma forced on him by his stepfather, Vera said: "He didn't beat Vova, but he didn't hide his dislike towards him.
"He’d often threaten that he’d kick "the bastard" out of his house.
"The day would go by without him saying a word to the child. Vova was suffering, and hated him, but he was also afraid of the man and didn’t dare to raise his voice.
"He’d often kick Vova out of house during winter, barefoot, and then it was up to kind neighbours to shelter him.
"When my husband, his step-father, was dying, he had visions that Vova was back.
"His last words were: "Ask that little Russian boy standing in the corner to come over and sit and eat with us".
"He couldn’t stand seeing Vova at the table, so he’d often eat alone."
Vera told how her cowed son became cold-hearted and introverted as his childhood torment continued and began taking his pain out on animals in the rural village.
She said: "Vova was a quiet boy, a thoughtful little kid. I still keep the sling he made to shoot at neighbours’ chickens.
"They weren’t too thrilled about that though and often complained.
"Despite being quiet, he was very competitive and short-tempered, he couldn’t stand anyone from his peers being better than him at anything — be it fishing, or wrestling.
"He always had to beat others and wouldn’t rest till he’d have done just that — gone one better than somebody else did.
"But despite that, he hated bullying and never had any serious fights with his classmates, always tried to be a good friend."
Vera told how her boy’s tough time in her care ended after she fled his drunken stepfather to her parents in Russia.
[CNN] Ukraine has cultivated a network of agents and sympathizers inside Russia working to carry out acts of sabotage against Russian targets and has begun providing them with drones to stage attacks, multiple people familiar with US intelligence on the matter told CNN.
US officials believe these pro-Ukrainian agents inside Russia carried out a drone attack that targeted the Kremlin in early May by launching drones from within Russia rather than flying them from Ukraine into Moscow.
It is not clear whether other drone attacks carried out in recent days — including one targeting a residential neighborhood near Moscow and another strike on oil refineries in southern Russia — were also launched from inside Russia or conducted by this network of pro-Ukrainian operatives.
But US officials believe that Ukraine has developed sabotage cells inside Russia made up of a mix of pro-Ukrainian sympathizers and operatives well-trained in this kind of warfare. Ukraine is believed to have provided them with Ukrainian-made drones, and two US officials told CNN there is no evidence that any of the drone strikes have been conducted using US-provided drones.
Officials could not say conclusively how Ukraine has managed to get the drones behind enemy lines, but two of the sources told CNN that it has established well-practiced smuggling routes that could be used to send drones or drone components into Russia where they could then be assembled.
Twitter reported Ukraine has bought 50,000 to 100,000 drones from China that it converting for military use. With 10,000 operators now trained expect swarms and swarms of drones in the coming attacks. This will be a unique first in warfare.
As part of the "Army of Drones" project, 10,000 UAV operators were trained 😎
This was announced by the Minister of Digital Transformation Fedorov. He added that it is planned to launch 60 drone strike companies ‼️‼️‼️ pic.twitter.com/IZGLTd17Zh

According to official figures, 485 children were killed in a full-scale Russian invasion, but the real number is higher, the president added.

20:08 Zelensky said in an evening video message that he had held a special meeting on sanctions: "The GUR, the Foreign Intelligence Service, the government, the Office. They analyzed in great detail how Russia circumvents sanctions and who helps it. Different countries, different companies, without which Russia cannot could produce means of terror, in particular, missiles. Unfortunately, the terrorist state manages to use the technologies of the world through a network of suppliers, manages to bypass international sanctions regimes."
The President stressed that Ukraine sees every direction of circumventing existing sanctions, every country whose territory or jurisdiction, whose citizens are used by Russia. "And we must close all such areas - together with partners - so that there are no products of the free world in Russian missiles, in Russian weapons. The necessary steps will be taken," Zelensky added.
19:59 About 500 former convicted citizens of the Russian Federation arrived in one of the units of the Russian troops operating in the occupied territory of the Kharkiv region during the week.

Our losses were seven and a half times less. We have no right to surrender our cities."
12:48 Commander of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Alexander Syrsky said that the situation in the Eastern direction is becoming more complicated, but in some sectors of the front there is an advancement of the Defense Forces.

The enemy is trying to break through the defenses of the Ukrainian troops and develop an offensive, fighting in these areas goes on almost around the clock.
"In the course of live communication with unit commanders, we have developed and are implementing new approaches and a vision of achieving success as soon as possible in certain sectors of the front," Syrsky said following a visit to these sectors of the front. As an example, he cited the work of a unit of the 92nd Separate Machinized Brigade, which not only repelled an enemy attack in the Svatov direction, but also successfully counterattacked and advanced 400 meters.

It works for us and only in the past and current days made more than 30 sorties, inflicted more than ten air strikes. It is clear that the enemy I don't like it.

We have already reported that the enemy suffered serious losses in manpower and equipment (at least 7 tanks and about 10 more lighter military equipment were destroyed).
Now the information on losses is specified.
It is possible that the enemy will resume attempts to carry out reconnaissance in force in this direction tomorrow as well. The situation under Ugledar is heating up.
20:15 What do you need to understand on the activity of the Armed Forces of Ukraine at the front.
Why are the Armed Forces attacking in small groups?
Reconnaissance in force is the only available tool with which the Armed Forces of Ukraine can currently collect reliable data on the training of the RF Armed Forces.
The speed of response, the number of guns, etc. - all this, for lack of other means, is checked by exchanging Troops and regular troops and losing 150-200 people per exit. If a vulnerable area is discovered, Ukrainian troops will definitely try to bring in reserves and reinforcements there.
Where are the APU trying to move?
-Zaporozhye direction: in the area of the Vremievsky ledge, more forces than usual were sent for reconnaissance in combat by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This was expected, given that two times the direction of the strike in this area had already been probed by small groups.
They use equipment very carefully, apparently, they are afraid of minefields and the activity of Russian anti-tank systems and aviation. Apparently, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are trying to break through to the village of Priyutnoye.
- Avdeevskoe direction: an attempt to reconnoiter in battle in the area of Vodyany and Experienced was made in the morning, all attacks were repulsed.
- Kupyansk direction: after massive attacks on warehouses with ammunition and fuel, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are losing a number of very advantageous and well-equipped positions in the Novomlynsk area, just north of Dvurechnaya.
- Ugledar direction: AFU accumulate equipment and reserves in the Elizavetovka area, but it is impossible to move. As soon as the column begins to move, Russian artillery begins to work.

18:05 Videos distributed innetworksas "footage of the battles in Novaya Tavolzhanka" - fake. There is no such configuration of buildings in the village, the sounds of shots are extremely strange, and the operator's comments are deliberately calm.
In the first video, the filmmaker demonstrates amazing composure - he is reporting live from the line of fire, being in the room behind the “employee”.
Of course, civilian operators rarely demonstrate miracles of self-preservation, but in this case there is definitely nothing to be afraid of. The video, with an extremely high degree of probability, is staged, and has nothing to do with Novaya Tavolzhanka.
17:50 Situation in the Belgorod region on June 4, 2023
A difficult situation is developing in the Belgorod region. Over the past two days, Russian cities and towns have been repeatedly fired from barreled rocket artillery.

The most critical situation was noted in the Shebekinsky urban district, where the Armed Forces of Ukraine fired more than 500 units of various ammunition. It is noteworthy that a significant part of the shots falls near bridges and crossings on the Belgorod highway from Shebekino.
Most likely, the Armed Forces of Ukraine are trying to destroy the logistics routes for supplying the Russian group near the border with the Kharkov region.
Now there is a battle in Novaya Tavolzhanka, where the DRG in the amount of about 20 people without armored vehicles entered the village. This is the second attack attempt in a day.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine are using the legend of the Vyruses from the so-called “Russian Volunteer Corps” * to attack Russian territories. Both Polish and American mercenaries operate in the sabotage groups.
It is curious that doctors and orderlies are actively working with them, whose task is to evacuate the wounded and killed from the battlefield as quickly as possible in order to prevent the bodies of the dead from falling into the hands of the RF Armed Forces.

13:27 Summary.
- The enemy is actively fighting on the Belgorod front. On the line of the state border, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will use artillery, armored vehicles, motorized infantry units. To strike at the rear areas of the region - operational-tactical missile systems, UAVs and RZSO. In terms of the number of attacks by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the region caught up with the DPR. The border areas have become a frontline zone, there is an organized evacuation of the population, especially children. The border line, due to its proximity to the enemy, cannot serve as the main line of defense, and therefore the “secret line” with anti-tank structures was built at some distance from the border.
- The Ministry of Defense and Dmitry Medvedev assess what is happening as terrorist attacks against the civilian population. The idea of forming a territorial defense is being discussed in society and power circles, Prigozhin declares his readiness to use Wagner PMC in the direction on a full scale if such a decision is made and ammunition is issued.
- In the Kupyansk direction, they report a gradual advance of the Russian Armed Forces towards the city. The ledge of the Kupyansky front is the only territory of Ukraine where our troops are now operating. The rest of the front line passes through the territory of Russia, taking into account the regions accepted into our composition.
- A rotation took place in the Artemovsky (Bakhmut) direction. PMC "Wagner" departed to the rear areas, the Russian Armed Forces occupied the defense in the direction.
- Heavy fighting took place on the Avdeevsky site. Our troops here are trying to resume offensive operations.
- The Maryinsky direction was characterized by increased media coverage in connection with the arrival of Akhmat units at the front. Fighting in the area continues for months.
- Ugledarsky section of the front under constant pressure of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The enemy is trying to attack our strongholds with limited forces, but has no success.
- The attention of the command is riveted to the Zaporozhye direction. The Armed Forces of Ukraine are drawing up reserves for a strategic offensive operation on Melitopol, our troops report the readiness of the defense, the enemy’s suitable forces are daily defeated by aircraft (FABs) and the Geran UAV. The enemy is trying to destroy our headquarters and warehouses with strikes from Western weapons, to disrupt logistics.
- The Kherson sector of the front was replenished from the enemy with a large number of small watercraft. The enemy checks the radio network for stable control of troops and disperses reserves in sparse forest areas in his rear. Through the Dnieper, a distracting strike through the islands from Kherson and an auxiliary strike from Berislav through the reservoir dam are expected.
- Attacks are made on enemy targets in the deep enemy rear. The American Patriot air defense systems did not solve the problem of protecting the sky for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, but became the target for successful attacks by the Russian Armed Forces.
– The formation in Russia of a new combined arms and air army, as well as two military districts, was discussed in the media and the expert community. Western experts say that the new formations are designed to break through the defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and indicate a return to an offensive strategy. At the same time, it should be remembered that such assessments often justify new deliveries of weapons to the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the allocation of budgetary funds.

08:09 Consequences of the night shelling Gorlovka by Ukrainian militants
Commentary by Russian military blogger Andrey Chervonets
The head of the Wagner PMC said that land mines were laid on the retreat routes of the PMC units:
“As for provocations. As of today, there are no provocations against us from the side of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, however, it should be noted that surprises were waiting for us from the other side.
Shortly before our departure, we detected suspicious activity along our route. As part of the discovery of this suspicious activity, we called law enforcement and began to investigate our exit routes along the roads. We found about a dozen places where various explosive devices were placed, ranging from hundreds of anti-tank mines to tons of plastid - a charge from the so-called "Serpents of Gorynych."
All this was under control, while we carried out investigative actions, again together with law enforcement agencies, in order to document everything. Investigations and investigations are underway.
Those who planted these charges were representatives of the Ministry of Defense. When asked why you did it, they point their fingers up.
Questions are not yet answered. These charges did not need to be stacked in order to contain the enemy, since it is located in the rear zone. Therefore, it can be assumed that they wanted to meet the advancing units of the Wagner PMC with these charges, although we do not walk in columns."
Prigozhin also said that enemy units appeared in the liberated Artyomovsk transferred to the divisions of the RF Ministry of Defense - in the south-west of the city, the Armed Forces of Ukraine placed their observation posts.
What will the father-in-law of the blogger Stolyarov say to this?
P.S.
Someone will say that the Serpent Gorynych "is not a tool for mining, but for demining.
Yes, this is true - it is a means for demining by detonation. In this case, everything is destroyed, both mines and the manpower that has fallen into the affected area. And this the tool can be used as a mine if laid on the way and remotely detonated - tons of explosives explode in the same way, either during mining or during mine clearance. direct strikes against strongholds of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin
[ColonelCassad] State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin called on the Investigative Committee and the Prosecutor General's Office to investigate the murders of soldiers and officers of the Red Army in Poland in 1919-1921. Such crimes have no statute of limitations.
Not even 10 years have passed. This topic has already surfaced at one time and there were even plans (even under Medinsky) to make a film about the genocide of prisoners in Poland, which Mikhalkov was supposed to shoot, but this did not go beyond chatter. Nothing serious was removed, the memory of the dead was not properly immortalized, political accusations against Poland were not made, but they continued to rush about Katyn like fools with a written sack.
Now we have entered a new circle and in the light of the changed military-political circumstances, there are hopes that a political assessment of the genocide of prisoners of war will be given and more concrete steps will follow with the advancement of official claims against Poland and perpetuating the memory of the victims.
Speaker of the Russian State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin: The Investigative Committee and the Prosecutor General's Office should conduct a comprehensive investigation into the facts of the execution and torture of Red Army soldiers in Polish camps.
“The leaders of Poland profess the ideology of the dictator Jozef Pilsudski, whose policy was based on hatred of Russia.
During his reign, heinous crimes against humanity were committed in Poland. In 1919-1921, more than 30,000 of our soldiers and commanders were shot and tortured to death. The Polish prison camps were the same as the Nazi ones.
Today, Poland refuses to investigate these crimes... Such bloody crimes have no statute of limitations. We must do everything so that the victims of this tragedy are not forgotten."
P.S.
Poland does not admit its mistakes and tries to deny the reality of its undeniable crimes against Russia.
The victims of this tragedy must not be forgotten. It is necessary to investigate the circumstances of historical crimes.
During Soviet times, Poland was part of the "socialist camp". And such questions were removed from the agenda. Today we must raise questions concerning historical memory. The time has come when it is necessary to give a legal assessment of their actions and demand the restoration of historical justice.

Initially, the enemy managed to achieve small tactical successes in the area of the Vremevsky ledge, including the occupation of two small villages on the border of the gray zone, but after suffering losses (more than 20 tanks and armored combat vehicles), the enemy was forced to withdraw, even despite the introduction of his reserves into battle. In most other sectors, the enemy had no success. The ratio of losses per day turned out to be strongly not in favor of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
3. Nevertheless, there is a concentration and regrouping of enemy forces in order to continue the offensive activity of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the area of the Vremievsky ledge, Vogledar and Vodyany. Probably tomorrow will be attempt number two. It is possible that this activity is designed to distract our command from the Kamenskoye-Orekhov-Gulyaipole sector, where a blow could probably be struck in order to reach Tokmak and the subsequent movement to Melitopol, coupled with auxiliary landings across the Dnieper.
4. Under Artyomovsk as a whole, no changes. There is local enemy activity in the private sector to the southwest of the city, as well as to the northwest.
The RF Armed Forces cover the concentration of enemy forces in Slavyansk, Kramatorsk, Konstantinovka and Chasov Yar. Tomorrow the rotation of our grouping in Artemovsk will be completed.
5. In the Belgorod direction, the enemy today continued to actively shell the border areas, and also continued to attempt to break through the DRG into our territory. These actions are aimed primarily at solving information problems, as well as diverting attention from the main sectors of the front. Among the hopes of the enemy command is to provoke the RF Armed Forces to transfer additional forces here from the main directions. To do this, they try to inflate the panic as much as possible.
Nevertheless, the situation requires the command to take more decisive measures to transfer hostilities to the northern regions of the Kharkos and Sumy regions in order to make it difficult for the enemy to implement his tactics.
According to enemy attacks in the area of the Vremievsky ledge.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine have been carrying out reconnaissance in force in the Zaporozhye direction since 12:00 today.
The attack is going on in the area of the Vremievsky ledge with forces up to a motorized infantry company in the zone of action of our 5th Army.
Attack areas - Neskuchnoe-Makarovka and Novopol-Priyutnoye.
By 2 pm, the enemy was able to advance up to 200 meters in the Novodarovka-Priyutnoye sector. On the Levadnoye-Priyutnoye and Neskuchnoye-Makarovka sections, he had no success.
In all sectors, the enemy acted with the forces of company-tactical groups with the support of tanks. During the attack, the enemy lost 2 tanks (affected by ATGM crews) and a certain number of killed and wounded.
ON THE CAPTURE OF NOVOMLYNSK.
Regarding the reports about the liberation of Novomlynsk village by the Russian troops, there are currently no photo/video verifications of these statements.
The main battles to the north-west of Kupyansk are taking place in the area of Dvurechnaya and Sinkovka. The enemy failed to return the positions lost by the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Masyutovka.
Information about the location of our troops 1.5 km from the outskirts of Kupyansk is also ahead of events - a real advance to the northwestern outskirts of Kupyansk will be possible with the liberation of Sinkovka and Petropavlovka, as well as the forest area west of Sinkovka.
According to the attacks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Artemovsk region
The area of activity of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to the south-west of Artemovsk in the garden partnership to the south-west of the "Airplane".
Actually, it is precisely her command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine that gives out for holding positions in Artemovsk. The activity of small groups of infantry comes from the direction of Krasnoye.
After the completion of the rotation in Artemovsk, the units of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation and the RG will have the task of pushing the enemy back from the city limits and taking Khromovo and Krasnoye.
