‘Putin using winter as a weapon of war’ in Ukraine says NATO secretary general – BBC News

Published

on



NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has said Russian President Vladimir Putin is using “winter as a weapon of war” against Ukraine.

Speaking at a meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Romania, the secretary general said “Putin is failing in Ukraine” and is responding with “brutality” by attacking gas, electricity and water infrastructure across the country.

The meeting will discuss NATO members increasing military and non-lethal aid, such as fuel and materials to help Ukrainians heading into the colder months.

    The zelensky’s don’t mind another 100k dead soldiers. Most of them only had restaurant jobs anyway and were only marginal to the economy

    That's when warfare is conducted in that region. You have to wait until the ground is frozen, otherwise armor and vehicles sink into the mud. When Russia's winter offensive begins Ukraine is going to get rekt. There might not be a Ukraine as a political entity by next year. And it all could've been avoided

    Didn't the Western world use Ukraine as a weapon from the very start? Can people no longer recognise hypocrisy?

    I thought every one military expert said that winter is an advantage for the Ukrainian army. I bet Putin is also using the sanctions to punish EU, Ukraine and the rest of the world by giving 1 fk.

    Who’d have thought a country in conflict would reduce its opponents capacity to sustain its war efforts ? Can anyone who thinks this is unacceptable please justify the bombing of Dresden in WW2.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



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.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



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.
