Putin the coconut head primate. This was the same way Russia battled taliban in Afghanistan only to give up after three years of losing soldiers.


I see Putin pulling out though.

Truvelisback:
Putin should just end this war and let Ukraine be. The war is no longer an easy victory. The other day, North Korea president was weep over his dead soldiers helping Putin in the war.

Abure is just an actor, paid by APC drug lord. But am happy that Peter Obi will reciver his mandate in ADC.

pius4luv:
Abure is an ingrate he has use his greadiness to scatter the Labor party, the likes of ireti kingibe and more labor party reps and senators and governor will defect to ADC, let him run the party himself.

Russia just dey do sacrifice on a steady. Real fake world power.

Thanks you so much Bashir for the bashing.

Most of those bone heads can't tell between day and night.

What will a thief say. That's the story. You inherited a broke government.

But you. Rigged your way into office.
Why not resign, its not a must to lead.

The way ADC is moving it will be hard for some jokers to stop.

Seun play at me
APC comot for road by Dino Melaye
Great jam.

What a lovely song APC is dead.

Nigerians have rejected that occult group.

APC. Comot for road oh. ADC Don. Come.

Tinubu right now.

What Obi proposes is none of your business. You spend a lot of time and money trying to demarket him But you failed.


We Nigerians will give Peter Obi a chance

This is why education is vital, most of them are uneducated, some should be in the psychiatric asylum.

Samantha125:
But how is it the community's business though? What two grown adults decide to with their lives shouldn't be anyone's business... Only their partners are entitled to intervene.

Putin and his likes, Netanyahu must stand trial. By the grace of God.

Zelensky should be given a novel laureate for Best Revolutionary. Amidst Western turncoat and betrayal. This man has galvanised his country in stopping a satanic Putin.

May the force bide you, slavia Ukraine 🇺🇦 ♥ ♥

Three people have been killed and 35 taken to hospital following an attack by Ukraine on a factory in the city of Izhevsk - more than 1,000km (620 miles) from the border, Russian authorities say.

Of those injured ten had suffered serious injuries, the governor of Udmurtia Aleksandr Brechalov said, adding he had briefed President Vladimir Putin on the attack.

Drones reportedly targeted the Kupol Electromechanical Plant - a military factory which is said to produce Tor surface-to-air missile systems and radar stations.

The plant also specialises in the production of Osa air defence systems and has developed drones, according to Ukrainian media.

An Ukrainian official confirmed to BBC Ukraine that two long-range drones operated by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) struck the Kupol plant from a distance of around 1,300 km (807 miles).

"Each such special operation reduces the enemy's offensive potential, disrupts military production chains and demonstrates that even deep in Russia's rear, there are no safe zones for its military infrastructure," the source said in comments reported by Ukrainian media.

A video posted on social media and verified by the BBC showed an explosion on the roof of a building, followed by a large plume of black smoke rising over a factory-type chimney.

Russia's civil aviation regulator Rosaviatsia imposed restrictions on operations at Izhevsk airport, before lifting them a few hours later.

This is second Ukrainian drone attack on the Kupol factory since November - although that strike had not resulted in any casualties.

For its part, Moscow continues to carry out attacks in Ukraine. At the weekend Russia launched a record 537 drones and missiles on various locations across the country, including Kyiv and the western city of Lviv.

On Monday Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky granted the Hero of Ukraine award posthumously to an F-16 pilot, Lieutenant Colonel Maksym Ustymenko, who was killed while trying to repel the aerial attack.

On the battlefield, while Russia's advance on the Sumy region seems to have stalled, Moscow appears to be targeting the eastern Dnipropetrovsk region. Unconfirmed reports in Russian media suggested Moscow's forces took control of the first village in the region.

Two rounds of talks aimed at agreeing a ceasefire between Kyiv and Moscow have taken place at the behest of US President Donald Trump since May, but have failed to produce tangible results.

Last week, President Putin said Russia was ready to hold a new round of peace negotiations although he said that the Russian and Ukrainian peace proposals were "absolutely contradictory".

On Monday Zelensky again expressed scepticism of Putin's intentions. "Putin has already stolen practically half a year from diplomacy... on top of the entire duration of this war," the Ukrainian leader said.

"Russia is not changing its plans and is not looking for a way out of this war. On the contrary, they are preparing for new operations, including on the territory of European countries."

US senior envoy for Ukraine and Russia Keith Kellogg echoed this on Monday, when he wrote on X that Russia could not "continue to stall for time while it bombs civilian targets in Ukraine".

Moscow swiftly pushed back, saying it was not "interested in stalling anything" and thanking the US for its support.

Let them go ahead APC supports terrorism. If not how can you impose state of emergency of rivers state that is not witnessing killings daily

And leave benue, Plateau, Kaduna and Taraba that have become blood farm.

Nigeria will always win in those mediocre ridiculous event but when it comes to the ones that matters they are goners

Since he join APC his conscience is dead.


What a shame the blood letting in APC regime is overwhelming.

Messi the fraud no barca to cover his gaping ass.





Time has proved who he is

I hope he is not going there to jogodo. He is fond of that thing.

That's a brilliant summary. If the abiola that they are crying for had been president Nigeria would go broke.

This were some of the things the military saw.

Christistruth00:
Abiola was not a good role model
Him too dey snatch people's wives and children

It was just that God Almighty used him to get rid of military rule

Stupidity at best. Instead of facing herdsmen. You're looking for boys with dreads.

North is not rivers state there's no oil there. I bet that's Tinubus thinking.

Tinubu is a failure. Your country is bleeding to death and you find time for vacation.

Ireland becomes first European country to introduce ban on trade, imports from Israeli settlements

Ireland has become the first country in Europe to introduce legislation to ban trade with Israeli settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, Irish Foreign Affairs and Trade Minister Simon Harris announced on Wednesday, following the publication of his new bill.

The General Scheme of the Israeli Settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (Prohibition of Importation of Goods) Bill has already been approved by the Government, but will now pass on to the Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade for Pre-Legislative Scrutiny.

According to the statement, the Irish government's commitment to the prohibition on imports from Israeli settlements came after the International Court of Justice delivered its Advisory Opinion on July 19, 2024.

As soon as the scheme is implemented, any imports will become an offence under the Customs Act 2015, and customs will be able to search, seize, and confiscate the goods. Harris added that the scheme intended to use the Israeli settlement postal code system currently employed by the EU in order to differentiate Israeli goods from settlement goods.

“The situation in Palestine remains a matter of deep public concern," Harris said. "I have made it consistently clear that this Government will use all levers at its disposal to address the horrifying situation on the ground and to contribute to long-term efforts to achieve a sustainable peace on the basis of the two-state solution."

Ireland has become the first country in Europe to introduce legislation to ban trade with Israeli settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, Irish Foreign Affairs and Trade Minister Simon Harris announced on Wednesday, following the publication of his new bill.

The General Scheme of the Israeli Settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (Prohibition of Importation of Goods) Bill has already been approved by the Government, but will now pass on to the Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade for Pre-Legislative Scrutiny.

According to the statement, the Irish government's commitment to the prohibition on imports from Israeli settlements came after the International Court of Justice delivered its Advisory Opinion on July 19, 2024.

As soon as the scheme is implemented, any imports will become an offence under the Customs Act 2015, and customs will be able to search, seize, and confiscate the goods. Harris added that the scheme intended to use the Israeli settlement postal code system currently employed by the EU in order to differentiate Israeli goods from settlement goods.

“The situation in Palestine remains a matter of deep public concern," Harris said. "I have made it consistently clear that this Government will use all levers at its disposal to address the horrifying situation on the ground and to contribute to long-term efforts to achieve a sustainable peace on the basis of the two-state solution."


“Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory are illegal and threaten the viability of the two-State solution. This is the longstanding position of the European Union and our international partners. Furthermore, this is the clear position under international law.
Harris added that he is yet to see an "adequate response at EU level" regarding imports from settlements following the ICJ's 2024 Advisory Opinion.

“This is an issue that I will continue to press at EU level and I reiterated my call for concrete proposals from the European Commission at the Foreign Affairs Council this week," he added, noting that his Government has made "a significant step forward" by advancing its own legislation.


“I am acutely aware that this legislation has been a particular focus of public interest and attention here at home and I look forward to hearing the views of Oireachtas colleagues and key stakeholders on the General Scheme.”

While the wording of the statement was more legalistic and less emotive, Harris's words to reporters took a different slant.

"Ireland is speaking up and speaking out against the genocidal activity in Gaza," he said.


Harris told reporters that he hopes the "real benefit" of publishing the legislation will be to inspire other countries to do likewise, as "every country must pull every lever at its disposal."

Irish lawyer Alan Shatter, who previously served as Justice and Equality Minister and Defense Minister, lambasted Harris on X.

“Only Simon Harris and our current government could be so foolish as to create the acronym PIGS to reference a new law that targets & boycotts Jewish-produced goods.”

Shatter remarked that this is the first time since the defeat of Nazi Germany that any European government has promoted a law to specifically boycott Jewish produced goods and criminalize those who import them.

"The fundamental flaws and violations of EU law with which the Bill is riddled best explain the new acronym. Put simply the Bill fundamentally violates EU law and is not legally kosher," he said.

ICJ's Advisory Opinion
The ICJ's Advisory Opinion of 19 July 2024 declared that Israel's settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem are contrary to the sixth paragraph of Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, and therefore illegal.
As a result, it advised all nation states to "take concrete and effective measures" including "refraining from any unconditional financial, economic, military or technological aid to the State of Israel, and punishing such violations where appropriate and in accordance with the relevant treaties to which they are parties."

Harris, and counterparts from Belgium, Finland, Luxembourg, Poland, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, and Sweden last week called on the European Commission to create proposals for EU states on how to discontinue trade and import with Israeli settlements, in line with obligations stated by the ICJ.

Israel's Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar responded at the time: "It is regrettable that even when Israel is fighting an existential threat which is in Europe's vital interest, there are those who can’t resist their anti-Israeli obsession."

Today Ireland becomes the first country in Europe to bring forward legislation to ban trade with the Occupied Palestinian Territories.

You can not build a case on illegality. What is the thing they say when someone disregard rule of law is called travesty.

casualobserver:
It’s illegal we know, they have awarded him compensation matter closed. He is now in Nigeria, face the matter in Nigeria!

It's illegal. Plain and simple. Nigeria is a lawless country that's why things are not working.

The charges against mazi Kanu are flimsy and baseless.

Sad. Really sad what is going on in Nigeria.
If herdsmen are not killing, then it's Bandits and if Bandits are not killing. Then us ritualist.

Please stay safe.

Although am Not from Abia state but the electrification project ortl is doing is a break from the norm.

Many governors Siphon money. Nigeria needs more of electrical projects.

seunowa:
Hmmm I think you are right, the same question should be directed to Otti of Abia state " how much was used in constructing less than 10km of road, he recently commissioned with funfair?

The Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel – a prominent research institution that is home to about 2500 scientists, students, technicians and scientific support staff – was devastated by Iranian missiles on 15 June.


The planetary sciences building, which houses geochemistry labs among other chemistry programmes, was effectively destroyed in the attack. Damage was also sustained to other nearby facilities. The Iranian strikes were launched in retaliation to Israeli missile attacks that began on 13 June, which targeted Iran’s uranium enrichment sites and its nuclear scientists

Milko van der Boom, dean of the Weizmann Institute’s faculty of chemistry, says around 45 labs sustained serious damage. ‘In my faculty, about 100 people don’t have a lab or a desk anymore, and for the whole campus that’s probably 400 or 500 people,’ van der Boom tells Chemistry World. ‘We don’t know the full damage yet, but probably it will cost more than $500 million (£372 million) and maybe close to a billion dollars to address across campus.’

Yael Kiro, a geochemist whose lab was in the planetary sciences building, says the facility is currently non-operational. ‘Definitely the lab work is completely paused,’ she says. ‘I arrived at the Weizmann Institute about six years ago, and it took me a while to establish and build my clean lab … I was very proud of it.’ Kiro adds: ‘The first time I went into the lab after the missile hit, I was very sad and felt pain seeing everything in this state.’
Kiro and her colleagues were able to rescue their geological, seawater, groundwater, plant and soil samples by quickly moving them from refrigerators and freezers that had lost electricity to functional ones elsewhere on campus.

Geochemist Itay Halevy’s lab was in the same building, and also suffered severe damage. ‘All the windows imploded, a lot of the equipment fell off the benches, some of the cabinets fell off the walls,’ he says.


Analytical equipment destroyed
------—-------------------------------------
Halevy and his colleagues haven’t yet been able to fully evaluate the damage. However, he notes that many instruments will need to be replaced. ‘It looks like most of the analytical equipment will have to go – mass spectrometers, spectrophotometers, microscopes,’ he tells Chemistry World. ‘All of those are probably damaged beyond repair.’
‘Some instrumentation we know is gone – in life sciences we had really great optical microscopes that are completely gone,’ says van der Boom. ‘But in our faculty of chemistry, I don’t know yet the status of our NMRs, MRIs and electron microscopes, for example.’


Sarel Fleishman, whose lab works on computational protein design, says that many irreplaceable biological samples were also destroyed. ‘Generations of students had worked on this,’ he adds.

The planetary sciences facility was not hit directly but was damaged by the shockwaves generated when one of Iran’s missiles landed on a new chemistry building that was under construction.

An initial assessment indicates that the new chemistry building can be saved, but van der Boom estimates that the project will likely be delayed by two to three years.

Weizmann is ‘a ghost town’
---------------------------------------
Van der Boom notes that Weizmann has received a lot of support from national and international research community, who are offering to lend their lab space and instrumentation.

However, he adds that the university has become ‘a ghost town.’ According to van der Boom, more than 200 international students and postdoctoral fellows who lived in Weizmann housing have been relocated off campus, while 70 had left Israel as of 20 June.

Frivolous projects and wasteful spending. What's the use of it. I guess when asked amount spent you would hear trillions.

According to sources familiar with it, Iran's centrifuges remain largely "intact" with the destruction limited to aboveground buildings.

Trump will create a beast out of Tehran. You don't enter discussions only to renege

25 June 2025
Donald Trump and his top officials have pushed back on a leaked intelligence report that said US strikes on Iran only set its nuclear programme back by a few months.

Speaking at a Nato summit in The Hague on Wednesday, Trump said the strikes led to the "virtual obliteration" of Iran's nuclear capabilities and set its atomic programme back "by decades".

Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth, who was also at the summit, said the preliminary Pentagon assessment was made with "low confidence" and the FBI was investigating the leak.

On Tuesday, sources familiar with the initial report into Saturday's bombings told the BBC's US partner CBS that Iran's stockpile of enriched uranium was not eliminated.

They added that the strikes had only set the country's nuclear programme back by a few months - an assessment the White House swiftly described as "flat-out wrong".

According to the report, strikes on the heavily fortified enrichment facilities at Fordo and Natanz had sealed off entrances but failed to destroy underground structures.

Officials familiar with the leaked Defense Intelligence Agency evaluation warned it was an early assessment that could change as more information becomes available about the sites.

The Defense Intelligence Agency is the Pentagon's own agency which specialises in military intelligence to support operations. It collects large amounts of technical intelligence, but is distinct from other agencies like the CIA.

The US has 18 intelligence agencies, which sometimes produce conflicting reports based on their mission and area of expertise. For example, the American intelligence community is still not in agreement over the origins of Covid-19.

On Wednesday, while sitting alongside Nato Chief Mark Rutte, Trump initially acknowledged some uncertainty, saying the intelligence on the attack was "very inconclusive".

But he then went further in his assessment, saying "it was very severe, it was [an] obliteration".

When asked if the US would strike again should Iran resume its nuclear activities, Trump said: "Sure, but I'm not going to have to worry about that. It's gone for years."

Trump later likened the strikes to America's atomic bombing of Hiroshima at the end of World War Two.

"I don't want to use an example of Hiroshima, I don't want to use an example of Nagasaki, but that was essentially the same thing - that ended a war," he said.

The US president was flanked by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Secretary of Defence Pete Hegseth, who both echoed his scepticism about the leaked intelligence.

Hegseth said the leak was politically motivated and insisted the bombs landed "precisely where they were supposed to".

He added: "Any assessment that tells you it was something otherwise is speculating with other motives." He characterised the leak as "completely false".

Rubio also cast doubt on the leaked report's credibility, suggesting the contents had been distorted in the media and labelling the leakers as "professional stabbers".

The preliminary assessment also indicated that some of Iran's enriched uranium stockpile had been moved prior to the attack.

According to sources familiar with it, Iran's centrifuges remain largely "intact" with the destruction limited to aboveground buildings.

Entrances to two nuclear facilities were blocked and some infrastructure was damaged, they said, but much of the deeper installations survived the blasts.

In US intelligence terminology, "low confidence" typically indicates that the information is either poorly sourced, fragmented, or uncertain - making it less reliable than assessments graded with "moderate" or "high confidence".

Hegseth's reference to the report being "low confidence" suggest it is tentative and its findings may change as more detail emerges.

The US struck three nuclear sites in Iran on Saturday - Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan - using "bunker buster" bombs designed to penetrate hardened underground targets.

While the specific munitions used in the attack have not been confirmed, the 30,000lb (14,000kg) Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP), was thought to be the only weapon capable of destroying Iran's underground enrichment facilities.

Tehran has always said its nuclear programme is for peaceful purposes
