09.07.2026 ⇢ The Day of the Foiled Assassination Plot
⌨
The day was dominated by the FSB's announcement of a foiled assassination plot against a senior military official in Moscow, a story that state-aligned outlets led with from early morning and sustained throughout the day. Independent sources gave less prominence to the plot, instead focusing on Ukrainian drone strikes on oil infrastructure in Tver, Stavropol, and Taganrog Bay, which caused fires and a regional emergency. By afternoon, the Bundestag's vote against supplying Taurus and Patriot missiles to Ukraine shifted editorial attention, with state media framing it as a Western refusal to escalate. The US-Iran exchange of strikes continued to be covered, but receded from the top headlines. Fuel shortages persisted, with reports of rationing by license plate numbers in some regions.
