Thats the work of FSB, to have prevented this.
I remembered when Trump told warned Russia about CIA got inter about planned terrorists attack on Russia soil and FSB moved to action immediately but they just ignored this information this time around.

I’m very sure Russia will blame Ukraine government on this, and they will strikes Ukraine more but this am very suspicious because how come it took the Special Forces over 20 mins before responding?

Overconfidence? this reminds me of CIA warnings of 9/11 but the FBI said it impossible.
I'm thinking about the pinning it on Ukraine part you mentioned. Can't conclude yet, but this looks like a TERRORIST attack from a sect.

Let's see how it goes. Here is a warning from the US embassy few weeks back regarding an attack but it seem the FSB didn't take it serious. .

This look like an attack from a TERRORIST group.

Foreign Affairs / Afghanistan: Deadly Suicide Bomb At Bank In Kandahar(photos) by Botragelad: 5:12pm On Mar 21
At least 21 people have been killed in a suicide bombing in the southern Afghan city of Kandahar, a doctor at the regional hospital has told the BBC.

The Taliban government has put the death toll at three. Police said a number of others were wounded.

The suicide attack took place at about 08:00 (03:30 GMT), the Taliban said, at a bank located in the city centre.

No group has yet said it carried out the attack, which appears to be the biggest in Afghanistan this year.

The blast took place at a branch where Afghan government employees were queueing to collect their salaries.

"So far 21 dead and at least 50 people injured from the explosion have been brought in," a doctor from Mirwais hospital, the region's largest, said on the condition of anonymity.

Kandahar is the seat of power of the Taliban, the base of their supreme commander.

While the overall security situation in Afghanistan has improved since the Taliban gained complete control with the full withdrawal of foreign troops in 2021, there continue to be dozens of bombings and suicide attacks in the country each year.

Many of them have targeted Afghanistan's Hazara ethnic minority and have been claimed by Islamic State Khorasan Province, or ISKP, the regional affiliate of the so-called Islamic State group, a major rival of the Taliban.

You reckon you've got the inside info that there are no condition attached in Ukraine?

Just so you're clued up, Sudan's had a right amount of billions in aid from the UN, the West, and all that. What's your angle?

But then there's a right song and dance about them exploiting you when they do lend a hand. If you're not up to managing your own affairs, you can't kick up a fuss when you ask for a leg up and then get shirty about strings attached. Let's be honest, there's hardly a thing as a free lunch. If you leave the door open, they'll walk right in. They're usually looking out for number one, themselves, but it looks like you're between a rock and a hard place and you have no choice.

Israeli terrorists keep bombing hospitals, schools, grave yards yet they have not been able to rescue one of their citizens with the Hamas.

Shame on them.
Sorry, but the IDF isn't bumbling about. They were on the tail for TERRORISTS hiding in that hospital.

They could've turned the hospital to rubble ages ago if they wanted, but they're not about that; they aim for accuracy. Yet, here you are, still having a moan. And those two men snatched by Hamas? They were rescued in Rafah. What's the deal, you having a laugh or something? Lol

Foreign Affairs / Pakistan Accused Of Killing Eight Women And Children In Afghanistan Air Strike. by Botragelad: 2:56pm On Mar 18
Pakistan has admitted carrying out "intelligence-based anti-terrorist operations" in Afghanistan after the Taliban accused it of killing eight women and children.

No exact details were provided on the operation in an official statement.

However, it did say it was in response to a militant attack which left seven Pakistani soldiers dead on Saturday.

The Taliban has denied any link to the militants, adding that the "reckless" strikes had hit "civilian homes".

Zabihullah Mujahid, a spokesperson for the Taliban government, warned Pakistan not to "blame Afghanistan for the lack of control and problems in its own territory" in a statement released on X (formerly Twitter).

"Such incidents can have very bad consequences which will not be in Pakistan's control," he added.

Tensions have been rising between Afghanistan and Pakistan since the Taliban retook control of the country in 2021.

Pakistan says it has been dealing with a rising number of militant attacks, and on Monday accused "certain elements among those in power" of "actively patronising" militant group Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), and of "using them as a proxy against Pakistan".

Monday's statement said the target of the operation had been another group, Hafiz Gul Bahadur, which Pakistan accuses of attacking the military post close to the Afghan border in north Waziristan.

Pakistan's President Asif Ali Zardari had already vowed to "respond strongly" to the troops' deaths, "regardless of who it is or from which country" the group came from.

President of Pakistan Asif Ali Zardari, Chief of Army Staff (COAS) of Pakistan Asim Munir, and General Sahir Shamshad Mirza, Chairman Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee (JCSC), along with others attend the funeral of Lieutenant Colonel Syed Kashif Ali, 39 and Captain Muhammad Ahmed Badar, 23, after according to the military,

But Taliban spokesperson Mr Mujahid said the 03:00 (22:30 GMT) attack in Khost and Paktika had killed five women and three children.

It later said it had fired at Pakistani troops stationed along the border.

Late last year, Pakistan forced hundreds of thousands of Afghans to leave Pakistan, saying they did not have the correct paperwork to stay. Human rights groups criticised the policy, saying it resulted in many refugees and asylum seekers being coerced into leaving.

Caretaker ministers at the time suggested that this was done because of security concerns. Some analysts have suggested groups have taken advantage of the Taliban's return, but the Taliban has denied hosting militant groups, AFP reports.[/b

Foreign Affairs / Israeli Troops Raid Gaza's Al Shifa Hospital(photos) by Botragelad: 2:45pm On Mar 18
Israeli troops raided the compound of Gaza's Al Shifa Hospital early on Monday in an operation that Palestinian health authorities said caused multiple casualties and set off a fierce fire in one of the buildings.
The Israeli military said soldiers had conducted a "precise operation" based on intelligence that the hospital was being used by senior Hamas leaders, and were fired upon when they entered the compound.
"The troops responded with live fire and hits were identified. Our troops are continuing to operate in the area of the hospital," it said in a statement.

Al Shifa, the Gaza Strip's biggest hospital before the war, is now one of the only healthcare facilities that is even partially operational in the north of the territory, and is also housing hundreds of displaced civilians.
"Suddenly, we started to hear sounds of explosions, several bombings, and soon tanks started to roll, they came from the western road and headed toward Al Shifa, then sounds of gunfire and explosions increased," Mohammad Ali, 32, a father of two, who lives around one kilometre from the hospital, told.
"We don't know what is happening, but it looked as if it was a re-invasion of the Gaza City," he added, saying that the military activities began at around 1:00 a.m. (2300 GMT Sunday).

Gaza's Hamas-run health ministry said a fire broke out at the entrance of the hospital complex, causing cases of suffocation among displaced women and children sheltering in the hospital. It said communication had been cut off, with people trapped inside the surgery and emergency units of one of the buildings.

"There are casualties, including deaths and injuries, and it's impossible to rescue anyone due to the intensity of the fire and targeting of anyone approaching the windows," the ministry said.
The Israeli army dropped new leaflets around the hospital in Gaza City.
"To all those who exist or are displaced in Rimal and the displaced in Al Shifa and its vicinity: you are in a dangerous combat zone. The IDF is operating hard in its residential areas to destroy terror infrastructure,"
said the statement, which ordered the people to take the coastal road towards Al-Mawasi in the southern Gaza Strip.

The military issued grainy drone footage of the operation which it said showed troops coming under fire from a number of buildings in the hospital complex. Footage circulated on social media appeared to show an Israeli tank blocking the main gate of Al Shifa.
The military said troops had been instructed on the importance of operating cautiously as well as on measures to be taken to avoid harm to patients, civilians, medical staff and medical equipment, and said patients were not required to evacuate.

Not far from Al Shifa, Israeli army forces raided a school where displaced families were sheltering, and detained several men there, residents and Hamas media said. Residents reported tanks were also operating on the edge of the Beach refugee camp and said tanks fired shells at some buildings nearby.
Hamas said in a statement the Israeli military had committed a new crime by directly targeting the hospital buildings without caring about patients, medical staff or displaced people in it.


Israel came under fierce criticism last year when troops first raided the hospital, where they uncovered tunnels they said were used as command and control centres by Hamas. Hamas and medical staff deny the hospital has been used for military purposes or to shelter fighters.

Foreign Affairs / Indian Navy Recaptures Ship From Somali Pirates And Rescues 17 Crew by Botragelad: 4:38am On Mar 17
Indian naval forces including special commandos seized a cargo vessel that had been hijacked by Somali pirates, rescuing 17 crew members, a spokesperson for the navy said on Saturday.

The navy said in a post on social media platform X that all 35 pirates aboard the ship, the Maltese-flagged bulk cargo vessel Ruen, had surrendered, and the ship had been checked for the presence of illegal arms, ammunition and contraband.

The Ruen had been hijacked last year and the navy said it had intercepted the vessel on Friday.
The vessel may have been used as the base for the takeover of a Bangladesh-flagged cargo ship off the coast of Somalia earlier this week, the European Union naval force said.
The hijacking of the Ruen was the first successful takeover of a vessel involving Somali pirates since 2017 when a crackdown by international navies stopped a rash of seizures in the Gulf of Aden and the Indian Ocean.


Somali pirates had caused chaos in important global waterways for a decade but had been dormant until a resurgence of attacks starting late last year.
India deploys at least a dozen warships east of the Red Sea to provide security against pirates as Western powers focus on attacks by Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis.

At least 17 incidents of hijacking, attempted hijacking and suspicious approaches had been recorded by the Indian Navy since Dec. 1, Indian officials previously said.

Did the chinese enact any bill to force the sale of facebook or twitter to the chinese authorities or investors like the US is trying to do to Tiktok ,a hostile take over because they want total control over it?

This whole bill is a Trojan Horse to pave the way for even more Deep State censorship. And the effort to force sale of Tik-Tok to US Deep State actors is just more corrupt cronyism. US govt is run by absolute criminals and scoundrels.

Just a day after the House of Representatives voted to force the social media platform’s Chinese owner ByteDance to sell the app or face a US ban. Former US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin has said he is building an investor group to acquire TikTok.

Thieves is what they are!

The Chinese would never sell such a powerful social media asset to an opposing power (the US)

Why's Facebook and other US app banned in China?

Obviously, this is simply a mafia-style racket to force ByteDance to sell the most popular app in the world. They want to smash and grab the social media product, or have it banned. This is a legalized extortion, and reflects a lot about the mentality of American politicians. America clearly has a big problem with the fact that one of its rival countries could create a globally acclaimed social media application. The US, after all, has until recently led the social media world hands down and there has been no contest, with Facebook, Twitter, and others all being American products which have changed the world.

The idea that China has created the next-generation social media app is a blow to the American ego.

China will not relinquish it's product.

Facebook, and other US app is clearly banned in China. What's your stress?
You didn't say a word about that. Why does it become an issue when US tries to do things her way?

it's not yet clear whether it will become law. So, at this moment, TikTok is not banned. Tiktok either adhere to the US plan or risk being banned!
