Commentary by Russian blogger Rybar:
[ColonelCassad] Something terrible happened yesterday on the air of the Latvian TV channel Lietus (once known in Russia as "Rain").

In the release of the program “Here and Now”, presenter Alexei Korostelev, covering the topic of partial mobilization in Russia, said the following phrase:

“We hope that we were able to help many [Russian] military personnel, including, for example, with equipment and with simply elementary comforts at the front.”

And already today, at half past five in the morning, the editor-in-chief of Dozhd, Tikhon Dzyadko, published the following message on his Telegram channel:

"This phrase [of Korostelev] creates a feeling in the viewer that the Dozhd TV channel is providing assistance to the Russian army. In this regard, it is important to note the following: TV channel Dozhd has not, is not and will not be engaged in assistance with the equipment of the Russian army - at the front or beyond. The mailbox […] was created to collect personal evidence about the crimes of the Russian army in Ukraine."

Fix. A Russian citizen (is he still a Russian citizen?),

...possibly he took Latvian citizenship when he stayed on after the Soviet Union broke up...

a native of Moscow, our compatriot - publicly justifies himself for the phrase of his subordinate, also our compatriot, which could be interpreted as an attempt to help the soldiers of the Russian army. Rendering assistance not to generals, not to politicians and not to officials. Ordinary fighters on the front line or in training. And we are not talking about the supply of artillery shells with the inscription "to Kyiv", but about elementary household items - boots, woolen socks, thermal underwear, etc.

That is, it is disgusting and fearful for Russian citizens (are they still Russian citizens?), Working on the Latvian TV channel Dozhd, to help their own compatriots, whose rights and freedoms they seem to defend (?).

In general, Dzyadko's tragicomic reaction is understandable: Dozhd, broadcasting from Riga, is sponsored by Western government agencies, so even a ghostly hint of helping Russian citizens in the person of our fighters can have fatal consequences for the entire editorial board. But it all looks monstrously disgusting even by the standards of a kind of "Russian" opposition party. Translated into a human post, Dzyadko sounds like this:

"Comrade Ukrainians and American congressmen who sympathize with them, you misunderstood us! We do not support our compatriots at all. We wish them torment and a terrible death. Let those international criminals and imperial imbeciles all die there! Glory to Ukraine!"

Let's repeat the common truths: the Russian political opposition in reality has never been either Russian, or political, or opposition.

Following commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:
For collaborators from Dozhd, it's quite a common story. Speaking as informational Heavis supported by the European Nazis, one must clearly understand that their army is the army of the Ukrainian Nazis.

The miserable puppets were publicly and defiantly shown their place, forcing them to publicly repent for the admitted "association with Russia."

Always pleased with domestic degenerates, who talked about the "free and democratic TV channel Dozhd". They never fail.

Some background information via RIA Novosti:
The host of the Dozhd TV channel was fired after words about helping the Russian military

"Dozhd" stopped cooperation with the host Alexei Korostelev after his words on the air about helping Russian military personnel, said the head of the information service of the TV channel Ekaterina Kotrikadze.

According to her, "this phrase is erroneous and categorically unacceptable for the entire editorial board."

"On the air, wording that can give rise to doubt in our position is unacceptable, so we have decided to stop working with Alexei Korostelev from today. This is a very difficult decision for us, but Dozhd's management considers it the only true and possible one," she said. Kotrikadze.

The presenter stressed that because of this statement, the viewers got the impression that the channel was sending equipment to the Russian army, but this is not so.
