Ucraina folosește avioane din Primul Război Mondial pentru a doborî dronele rusești
Recently published videos appear to show Ukraine using a propeller-driven Soviet-era Yak-52 training aircraft to attack a Russian Orlan-10 drone, reportedly in the Odesa region of southwest Ukraine.
One video, taken by the Yak-52 pilot, was posted on Telegram by Ukrainian military blogger Serhiy “Flash” Beskrestnov. The plane is seen circling around the Russian Orlan surveillance drone, which has deployed its orange-colored landing parachute.
According to Ukrainian journalist Andriy Tsaplienko, the drone was shot down by a machine gun fired from the (presumably rear) cockpit of the Yak.

Procurorii de la Curtea Penală Internațională intervievin lucrătorii din spitalele din Gaza
Prosecutors from the International Criminal Court have interviewed staff from Gaza's two biggest hospitals, two sources told Reuters, the first confirmation that ICC investigators were speaking to medics about possible crimes in the Gaza Strip.

Georgia Engulfed in Protests Over Controversial 'Foreign Agent' Bill
Georgia is currently at a significant political crossroads, with widespread protests erupting across the nation in response to the proposed 'foreign agent' bill, a piece of legislation that has sparked intense debate and even physical altercations among lawmakers. The bill, which mandates organizations receiving over 20% of their funding from foreign sources to register as 'foreign agents,' is seen by many as an attempt to stifle freedom of speech and suppress civil society, drawing comparisons to similar laws in Russia. The controversy surrounding the bill has not only… Citeste mai mult

20 avocați guvernamentali cer lui Biden să oprească ajutorul militar acordat Israelului
A coalition of lawyers domestic and abroad — including at least 20 that work in the Biden administration — are calling on President Joe Biden to halt military aid to Israel, arguing that its actions in Gaza do not comply with U.S. and international humanitarian law.
“This is a moment where the U.S. government is violating its own laws and policy,” said a Department of Justice staffer who signed the letter and was granted anonymity to speak candidly to not risk their job. “The administration may be seeing silence or only a handful of resignations, but they are real… Citeste mai mult

Turneul strategic european al lui Xi Jinping în contextul creșterii rivalității SUA-China
Chinese President Xi Jinping's upcoming visit to the European Union marks a significant moment in international relations, as it comes at a time when Europe is deeply divided over its stance towards the escalating political rivalry between Washington and Beijing. This visit, Xi's first to the continent since 2019, is set against a backdrop of mounting tensions over trade disputes, espionage accusations, and China's unwavering support for Russia amidst its own contentious relations with the West.

Trump avansează în sondaje, aruncând umbra asupra speranțelor de realegere ale lui Biden
In a series of recent polls, former President Donald Trump has taken a commanding lead over President Joe Biden, signaling a potential shift in the political landscape as the next presidential election looms. A CNN survey has notably highlighted this trend, with 55% of Americans now viewing Trump's presidency as a success, a stark reversal from the sentiment observed immediately after he left office. This resurgence of Trump nostalgia comes at a challenging time for Biden, whose approval ratings have dipped amidst various national and international challenges.

Taliban Leader Says U.S. Will Be Attacked For "Failed" Afghanistan Policies
The leader of the anti-Taliban resistance in Afghanistan has issued a chilling warning that a new terrorist attack on America is a matter of 'when not if'.
Ahmad Massoud said terrorism is 'breeding' in the vacuum left by the U.S. pulling out in August 2021 and it is 'very possible ' extremists will now try to strike America or Europe.
Massoud is the son of Ahmad Shah Massoud, the legendary resistance leader known as the 'Lion of Panjshir,' who was assassinated by Al Qaeda two days before 9/11.

Israel has significantly softened its stance on the conditions for a hostage deal with Hamas, raising hopes of a breakthrough in diplomatic efforts to end the war in Gaza.
After weeks of deadlock, Israel has accepted a proposal that sets out an initial six-week pause in the fighting during which Hamas would release 33 hostages, said a diplomat briefed on the talks. This would include children, the elderly, women, including female soldiers, and wounded captives.
That would be followed by a second phase that calls for “restoring a sustainable calm”, wording proposed by the US, the… Citeste mai mult

It might be a supersonic reconnaissance drone – one designed to hunt down US Navy aircraft carriers on the vast Pacific Ocean. Or it could be an even faster “hypersonic” vehicle.

The promise of “net zero” carbon emissions claimed another political victim this week as Scotland’s administration teeters on the verge of collapse. Defying reality has consequences.

Mr. Yousaf and his left-leaning party run a devolved government with the power to set many policies independent of the United Kingdom government in London. Now he’ll have to govern with a minority in the Scottish Parliament… Citeste mai mult
“Although I am sad that my time as first minister is ending, I am so grateful and blessed for having the opportunity so few are afforded — to lead my country, and who could ask for a better country to lead than Scotland,” a visibly emotional Yousaf said — before leaving the press conference podium without taking any questions.
