Make no mistake - Belarus is already part of this war as most recent kamikaze drones that hit Kiev were launched from its territory. The Ministry of Defense of Belarus announced that it was carrying out a rotation of units performing tasks to strengthen the protection of the state border. The stage is ready for a new world war as NATO can’t afford not doing anything should Ukraine be attacked by another country. The only way Putin can deter NATO is by keeping the nuclear option on the table.

Chinese President Xi Jinping declared China’s global power had increased while warning of “dangerous storms” ahead, striking a defiant tone to kick off a twice-a-decade Communist Party meeting on Sunday (Oct 16) at which he’s expected to clinch a precedent-busting third term in office. “China’s international influence, appeal and power to shape the world has significantly increased,” he said in Beijing in a wide-ranging speech to kick off the week-long party congress. Still, he warned of a more unstable international environment, saying China must be prepared for “strong winds and high waves and even dangerous storms”. (Business Times) 2 Likes 1 Share |

paafin:Lukashenko is already on sanction from the first election saga and on the second sanctions for his support to putin.fhat is why he tried to make sure Belarus is foot dragging itself to fully commit to the war. He knows Belarus cannot withstand the kind of sanctions Russia got slammed with as it would autoi give a chance for his govt instability But there is another problem though does lukashenko think his people want to be part of this war?

The target of this morning attack on Kiev was the headquarters of Ukrenergo - an electricity transmission system operator in Ukraine. The Russian aim is very clear: to cut off all electricity to the Ukrainians before the winter. Right after it assumed power, the Biden administration lifted the sanctions on Iranian weapons export and now the Ukrainians are paying the price as these are all Iranian made kamikaze drones. Guess what? Venezuela began to buy those as well. I don’t need to tell you what that means to the US. 1 Like 1 Share

This is a Shahed-136 Iranian drone that the Russians rebranded as Geran-2, a second before it hit its target in Kiev today. 1 Like 1 Share

"But there is another problem though does lukashenko think his people want to be part of this war? Seeing that Russians themselves are running from being conscripted to be part of the war" In 2021, 157 sailors illegally fled the U.S. Navy, more than double the number who deserted in 2019. Although all but eight of them eventually returned to their units, a military legal expert says the dramatic increase in desertions may be a sign of a bigger issue. South Koreans flee to the US and apply for asylum to evade conscription. North Koreans flee to South Korea to evade conscription (but as conscription is legal in South Korea, the North Koreans have to manufacture a story to be eligible to apply for asylum. Americans desert, Koreans evade conscription. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Ukrainian military's intelligence wing has released a new app called ePPO (available on Android, soon on iOS) that allows citizens to record and geo-tag cruise and stray missiles while in the air. The information is transmitted in real time to the air defense systems and optimizes the data in their hands for interception (Amit Lidor)

A rally in Lvov, where relatives demand that Zelensky's gang find the "missing" from the 24th brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. I won't tell you a big secret if I say that most of the people they are trying to find are already dead for a long time. Zelensky has been hiding the huge losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from the population, relatives are not informed about this. 7 Likes 2 Shares

Iran is turning Ukraine, under the auspices of Russia, into a playground where it can test the effectiveness of its drone and missile arsenal on civilian and military compounds. At least two players in the Middle East are watching closely: this is Israel, in terms of defense, and Hezbollah, in terms of attack. (Intel Times) 4 Likes 2 Shares |
