The figure that stunned the world: the exact timing of Russia's attacks on Ukraine - and the unusual reason for it

A Ukrainian military commentator points to a recurring pattern of Russian attacks on full moon dates over the past year, but emphasizes that this does not prove a causal link. The article also raises unsubstantiated claims about Putin's connections to mystical rituals.

Ukrainian military commentator Oleksandr Zhdanov points to a recurring pattern of Russian attacks on Ukraine on full moon dates over the past year, from October 2025 to October 27, 2026. Zhdanov himself said he does not believe in conspiracies, but the coincidence exists. The article notes that Russian forces did not miss a single full moon in the period in question, and the attacks were carried out using drones, missiles, or a combination of weapons. However, the report does not include the full statistical data required for independent verification. Alongside this, the article expands on folk beliefs in Ukraine and Russia that attribute mystical significance to the full moon, and raises unsubstantiated claims about Putin's connections to shamanic rituals and mysticism, drawing comparisons to ideological mechanisms like the Nazi Ahnenerbe.
