Moscow drone attacks: A new phase in the Ukraine war? – BBC Newsnight
The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

Sustained media with the embezzlement practiced with the dollar will entertain in despair. Who knows, maybe the American people have some chance of no longer supporting these paid scrivening and talking bums with the fraud that falls on American heads. American companies will be accepted to trade with the Brics, there is no reason to reject them!
'Collapse has begun': BRICS countries strike a blow to dollar's global dominance, says politician
The struggle of Russia and the BRICS countries with the dollar is leading to the beginning of the fall of the US currency, said former US congressman Ron Paul quoted by the InfoBRICS portal.
"The system built on the dollar will collapse. It has already started. Every day you will read another story that some great country – could be India, could be China especially, could be Russia – making deals all over the world [using] transfers in their local currencies", points out the politician.
According to him, the use of other currencies by Russia and BRICS countries for economic purposes and implementation of agreements will lead to the inevitable collapse of dollar dominance.
The US currency will not survive competition from other countries. Those are the cracks that we're seeing. Last year was marked by a significant decrease in the use of the dollar as the world's reserve currency. These are big numbers, but that's not the end of it. I think things will continue in that vein, adds Paul.

Can't remember the number of times the BBC has reported that Russia is running out of missiles. Should get that Marianna Spring to verify their own reports.

Ukraine's regime having no success in the battlefield targets and kills civilians on massive scale provoking Russia to do the same. The US and accomplices gave them indulgence for any kind of war crime accusing Russia by the way. The whole west has turned into huge ISIS.

It is most likely Putin who is behind these 'attacks'.
Look at his record for tormenting and murdering his own people in order to achieve his personal ends and secure his power:
Moscow apartment bombs;
The two Chechnya wars;
Countless murders of anyone who has opposed him in any way;
The Kursk submarine incident;
His involvement in Syria etc etc etc.
Put simply he is an indiscriminate mass murderer and proven war criminal. His evil knows no bounds Putin is 100% toxic!

”How Ukraine followed the ISIS playbook"-Newsweek
▪️ Newsweek: the Kiev regime's methods are similar to those of Islamic terrorists, and their main goal is to siphon more money and weapons from the West
▪️ ”Ukraine uses commercial drones to record victories on the front lines, uploading videos that border on gamification of combat. The methods appear to be inspired by "innovations" invented by ISIS nearly 10 years ago.”
▪️ For Kiev, spectacular footage from the front lines should attract enough viewers around the world to ensure that the fight against Russia is not forgotten and to prove that Western financial and military support for Kiev is not in vain
▪️ ISIS'victory" march through the world's media and social networks began with videos of prisoners wearing orange jumpsuits, like those worn by prisoners in U.S. prisons, and terrorists in black. The prisoners in these videos usually have their throats cut
▪️ Sean Houston, a professor leading courses in propaganda, social conflict and media studies at the South Carolina Military College, told Newsweek that this is "a great example of the gamification of combat videos and the strange overlap of video game quality and real footage," related to the video technique used by ISIS
▪️ ISIS pays particular attention to propaganda videos, which, "unfortunately, are much more appealing to young audiences." "The videos often look like militant videos, they prefer dramatic conflicts – whether it's footage of fighting or beheadings on camera."
▪️ ”Ukraine hopes to attract financial and military support from the West while maintaining audience interest. Ukraine has "sort of redesigned some of the important components of ISIS' propaganda approach, separating it from the morally horrifying or disgusting moments," he said
▪️ ”Ukraine is conducting a master class in modern warfare cannon fodder and digital diplomacy, and the use of videos helps attract attention, money and materials to support the war effort," Newsweek quoted the expert as saying

Ukraine is a terrorist.
In the morning, Ukraine launched a missile attack on an ordinary bus station full of buses and people, several buses burned down.
In the afternoon, Ukraine launched a missile attack on a civilian house full of people, a multi-storey building is on fire. City of Shchebekino.
Ukraine = terrorist!
