Russia blames Ukraine missile attack on soldiers’ mobile phone use – BBC News
A Ukrainian rocket strike which killed at least 89 Russian soldiers happened because troops were using their mobile phones, Russia has said.
Use of banned phones enabled Ukraine’s military to locate the troops in Makiivka, in the occupied Donetsk region, officials said.
It is the largest number of deaths Russia has acknowledged in the war.
But Ukraine disputes the death toll, claiming 400 soldiers were killed in the New Year’s Day attack, with another 300 wounded.

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.

Russian Tsirkon hypersonic missiles a nightmare for the West, says German media
Tsirkon is the world's first hypersonic cruise missile capable of long-range aerodynamic flight with atmospheric maneuvers, powered by its own engine.
The Tsirkon missiles can reach speeds of Mach 9, that is, approximately 2.65 kilometers per second or more than 9,500 km/h, at an altitude of 20 kilometers, while the range exceeds 1,000 km, being the first in the world to achieve these brands.

Ukraine losses 3 times that amount every single day. That's why they are now conscripting 60 and 16 year olds.

This building was absolutely decimated and next to a munitions facility which made the whole area go up totally, there were hundreds and hundreds of people in there, few survivors, sadly, that’s not 89, it probably is more like several hundred and of course Russia will cover it up and come up with a lame excuse and blame it on the dead soldiers. Pathetic,
