Ukraine war: Fighter ace and two other pilots killed in mid-air crash – BBC News
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.

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?

US plans to send depleted uranium shells to Kiev
Russia has already warned F-16 planes and NATO pilots.
So Russia will put the Sarmat RS-28 to fly, and don't think that the target will be Ukraine. It's very close to home. The first must be England, the island that started it all, being old and incapable.
"The Sarmat strategic missile system is put on combat alert," Yuri Borisov said during the Share Your Knowledge marathon.

Bustani case: US attack on Brazilian ambassador proves urgency of international reform

The target of blackmail and threats by senior US officials, Bustani was illegally removed from the board of directors of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), affiliated to the United Nations, shortly before the invasion of Iraq.

Three of the most experienced pilots Ukraine has collide during a training exercise raises a lot of questions. While there are Ukrainian partisans in Russia and Crimea there may be Russian sympathizers in Ukraine and they may have sabotaged the jets. I'm sure they've added even more security and are investigating who was around one of or both the jets I will never believe it was pilot error.

So according to BBC ( Cooperative Balls hoaxes ) 3 Pilots during an exercise on old and obsolete F16 collide with each other , however they were killed ! A patriot missile leaves the 'uckronazist and ends up in Poland , but it is Russia's fault , according to von der lies ! Bravo excellent stupidity of communication ! Criminals of 'information !

That's why they don't need to have F16's because they can't even fly what they have now.
