    Until someone is jailed for corruption, I don’t want another dime of my tax money to go to Ukraine. If you think about the number of Zelensky’s cabinet being accused of corruption, it make you wonder about Zelensky himself?! How can everyone around him be a piece of 💩and he’s the only clean one?! Or is he just has terrible judgment of people because he’s the one who picked those cabinet members!

    US claims that depleted uranium shells are not radioactive is 'absurd'
    White House claims that depleted uranium munitions are not radioactive are absurd, said Russian Foreign Ministry official Maria Zakharova.
    On Wednesday (6), the coordinator of Strategic Communications of the US National Security Council, John Kirby, said that the depleted uranium munitions were neither radioactive nor carcinogenic.
    "What is it: lie or nonsense? [Scientists] have mentioned this several times and there are independent articles saying that depleted uranium is toxic and dangerous for humans when it is in the form of radioactive dust and the effect of radioactive isotope contamination of soils was also raised," Zakharova wrote in Telegram.

    I say United States the classic atomic genocide, radiation produced by them is for the good of humanity! Poisoning the grain deal with radiation and not fulfilling your part.

    For the sake of those who do not speak Hungarian: the Ukrainian government with "very European values" has banned the use of the Hungarian flag and the playing of the Hungarian national anthem in this Hungarian high school, in the thousand-year-old Hungarian town called Munkács, which currently belongs to Ukraine. The new director doesn't speak Hungarian either. This is how Ukraine treats minorities… https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RRsc9B2j4KQ

    He's going to make ice cream out of Fukushima's radioactive water and deliver it to a rapidly warming world. Future generations will know who to blame. Plastic in the oceans IS NOT FROM TODAY. In the 1980s, lances were forced to float to unclog the cooling system. The media supported by the embezzlement practiced with the dollar are complicit. And now Brazil is going to drill at the mouth of the Amazon River and liquidate the corals of the Bahamas at the behest of the United States, which has a dry beak. If emerald, gold and other riches are smuggled out of Brazil. Why can't oil be?

Nato is preparing for a new era of warfare, combining cheaper weapons deployed at scale with tougher air defences, one of its most senior commanders has told the BBC’s The Security Brief.

Air Chief Marshal Sir Johnny Stringer said NATO was drawing lessons from Ukraine, combining its sophisticated, expensive weapons with cheaper systems that can be deployed in far greater numbers.

This is The Security Brief, with Christian Fraser and Mikey Kay.

Why did Trump just call for a ‘new president of Ukraine’? | BBC News

Published

on



US President Donald Trump has said he thinks “it’s time for Ukraine to get a new president” as he responded to Volodymyr Zelensky’s criticism of the US diesel deal with Russia.

The Ukrainian president warned a new deal to release millions of tonnes of Russian diesel into the US would provide Moscow with money to continue its war against his nation, calling it a gift to Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Trump told reporters outside the White House on Saturday that Zelensky “wants to make problems for the world” by continuing to authorise attacks on Russian refineries.

Why is Elon Musk’s Starlink internet so important on the battlefield in Ukraine? | BBC News

Published

on



Ukraine will resume strikes on Russian oil refineries, President Volodymyr Zelensky has said, as he accused the US of withdrawing crucial support.

He also accused the US of withdrawing intelligence-sharing on Russian strikes, and said restrictions to Starlink satellite services used by Ukraine’s military were deliberate.

Ukraine’s military relies on US early-warning alerts of incoming Russian aerial attacks to mount air defences, limiting successful strikes, while Starlink internet links are used throughout its war effort to guide drones and protect its skies.

But on Tuesday night, Starlink suddenly and unexpectedly restricted the speed at which drones could fly while still maintaining internet connection. This disrupted some battlefield “missions”, a top Ukrainian official said, and hampered Kyiv’s ability to protect itself from incoming Russian attacks.

Elon Musk, whose Space X company operates Starlink, suggested that the US government may have been behind the restrictions, adding that Starshield, the military-grade sister service to Starlink, is controlled by the US government, and “any limits on speed or usage are decided by the US military and ultimately [the US president]”.

The US government has not commented.
