Zelensky is traveling to the US to present his plan, which some sources have claimed has three points, which I outlined last time, but as reminder:
1. Zelensky wants the US to allow long-range strikes into Russia with foreign missiles to destroy all military bases, airfields, ammunition and fuel depots within the European part of Russia. 2. The West (US/NATO) must protect Western Ukraine with Polish and Romanian air defense systems from Russian retaliation strikes so Ukraine could transfer own air defense systems closer to the battlefield. 3.The West must guarantee to be prepared to get more involved by sending ground troops to certain parts of Ukraine to free up Ukraine's manpower which could be sent to the front lines. Zelensky believes after this campaign Russia would be forced to retreat, at some point Putin's leadership would be destabilized and replaced, with the new leadership signing a peace deal.
It seems every news cycle there is now some major new development surrounding Ukraine, which threatens to plunge the war into some elevated state of risk and threat.

Putin released his new statement regarding the recent developments about potentially greenlighting these deep strikes into Russia. He makes an extremely significant point that most people have missed, which explains why, specifically, Russia considers this as a direct involvement by NATO in the war.
Most people simply assumed that Russia fears having some important rear areas being destroyed. But what Putin points out is the distinction between Ukraine’s own paltry drone strikes deep into Russia, which can be carried out by Ukraine acting independently, with the long range strikes of these advanced weapons systems which require direct Western integration, support, and ultimately, participation in the strikes. That’s because many of these systems, like the Storm Shadows, as it was explained to us long ago, require the originating country’s direct involvement in programming the coordinates into them, not to mention the initial satellite surveillance necessary for obtaining the targeting itself.
This was why, you may recall, Germany expressly forbid sending Taurus missiles, as it was declared that German technicians would need to be on the ground directly programming the targeting solutions into the missiles, which would mean their explicit involvement in the war as combatants. You can hear the leaked German Army call discussing precisely this, here.
For those that still don’t understand, let me explain a little more clearly: when Ukraine sends its cardboard drones to Moscow, it can get the coordinates on google maps or whatever other open source database, and does not really need Western involvement. But advanced missiles and weapons systems are often run by proprietary software that requires special keys, programs, equipment, etc., to input the coordinates into them which cannot be done by the Ukrainians themselves, because giving them such digital ‘keys’ could compromise the entire system even in the home NATO countries in case of future conflict.
Thus, Putin is saying that for these systems to strike deep into Russia would necessarily mean NATO would be directly involved as a combatant in striking Russian territory in a more express way than ever before. The most obvious immediate Russian response would likely be to arm the Houthis with advanced anti-ship missiles which would straightaway endanger the entire US fleet.
The ramifications of this are far greater than most can imagine, given the cascading effect it would have. The US fleet is there to deter Iran and Hezbollah in protecting Israel. Should the Houthis possess an ability to completely cripple the US fleet, the falling chips would be: Israel’s defeat, which would mean the entire Empire’s defeat in the Middle East as Iran would reign supreme. This catastrophic sequence of events would result in the entire eventual collapse of the Western order. As such, the US obviously would not like to risk this scenario.
In classified briefings, American intelligence officials have expressed deeper concerns about direct, visible American participation in Ukraine’s move to seize and hold positions near Kursk. There are indications, they have warned, that Russia could provide technological help that would allow Iran and its proxy forces to attack American forces in the Middle East.
there have been some odd new reports claiming that drones flying from either Norway or Finland have been attacking Murmansk, with radar maps showing various NATO aircraft surveilling Russia’s borders at the time of the attack:
The enemy is trying to attack the Olenya strategic aviation airbase in the Murmansk region
2 drones were shot down near the village of Vysoky. Preliminary, the Ukrainian Armed Forces tried to attack the Olenya airfield with an A-22 Flying Fox UAV, the media writes.
Against the backdrop of the attack, Rosaviatsia introduced temporary restrictions to ensure flight safety at Murmansk airport:
"The airport is temporarily not accepting or sending flights. Aircraft crews, air traffic controllers and airport services are taking all necessary measures to ensure flight safety - this is the top priority," the department said.
On August 20, the Ukrainian Armed Forces also attacked the Murmansk region, and an enemy drone was shot down (on video).

Here’s an animated one showing two Swedish recon flights—the S102B and TP 102C SIGINT planes:
The Ukrainian Armed Forces attempted to attack the Olenya airfield with the support of NATO countries. Preliminary, the Ukrainian drones that were shot down in the Murmansk region were launched from Finland.
According to flight maps, two Swedish reconnaissance aircraft were previously monitoring the Russian border. This is the S102B radio and electronic reconnaissance aircraft, as well as the Gulfstream Aerospace TP 102C (G-IV-SP), which can intercept telephone calls, radio communications, digital and television networks.
The first aircraft constantly flies off the coast of the Kaliningrad region. The second was spotted in August last year, when it was conducting reconnaissance over the Finnish Lake Inari near the Russian border. Before that, such sorties were carried out exclusively by US Air Force aircraft.
After reconnaissance flights by NATO aircraft, two A-22 Flying Fox UAVs were launched from the (preliminary) Ivalo airfield (it is convenient to disguise the devices as civilian aircraft there).
The air defense system shot down all targets near the village of Vysoky. After this, the authorities introduced temporary restrictions on the operation of the airports of Murmansk and Apatity. The air harbors stopped accepting and sending civilian airliners.
And a last report which makes an interesting connection to the A-22 repurposed drone craft that Ukraine used in a failed attempt to strike Olenya strategic base near Murmansk:
Things are unsettled again at Russia's northern borders. And again, a Swedish Gulfstream IV is flying there and... a small and inconspicuous Beech C-12D Huron with American government registration is taking off from a neighboring airfield in Kirkenes, Norway. It is also curious that a transponder for an A-22 aircraft, which is often used as a drone for raids on targets in the Russian Federation, suddenly appeared in Pudasjärvi, Finland. It is only 400 kilometers from Finland to the Olenya military airfield.

Рано е за повраќање, тоа кога ќе има радијација....и неколку минути пред да отидеш у вечните ловишта кажи им фала на западњаците, многу јако ќе ги заебат русите со ова што го прават сега.
Веројатноста да се случи ова сценарио е у моментов најголемо откако постои оваа цивилизација.
Јака логика, значи сите имаат и ако американците или британците ги напаѓаат со крстосувачи ракети длабоко у руска територија русите не треба да користат нуклеарно оружје затоа што сите имаат....у уста ве ебам неписмена.
