nigeriansamurai:
so Ariael bombings are not invasion? Kai and foolish people dey like this crap you wrote... Breaching a national air space is invasion, Even if na civilian craft. That's why you hear about invasion of air space

You and your habit of talking from both sides of your mouth.

You and your obedience cohort are the first two people I will ever hear describe the Battle of Britain as an "invasion."

Invasion is a very specific term. The Battle of Britain is called several names, including air campaign, air battle, air raid, and so on, but never an invasion.

Even British sources, including the Encyclopedia Britannica does not call it an invasion.

So who are you to categorize it as an invasion?

Educate yourself and stop acting ignorantly. Also, keep the insults away.

⚡Reports are coming in that the Russian Army Group North has started an offensive in the Kharkov region.

Massive artillery preparation and airstrikes were conducted during the night and early morning.

Ukrainian sources report clashes along several border towns, but this is more than likely reconnaissance in force, and the main forces have not yet been deployed.

Ukrainian authorities have ordered the evacuation of several border settlements in the Kharkov and Sumy regions.

⚡NATO countries must neutralise Kaliningrad in the case of a conflict with Russia, says retired US Navy Admiral James Stavridis, former supreme commander of NATO's Combined Forces Europe.

The retired admiral said NATO would use the Baltic Sea to put pressure on Kaliningrad, which serves as a geographical divide between NATO's Baltic states - Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania - and the rest of the alliance.

According to Stavridis, in the case of war, Kaliningrad would must be neutralised to prevent Russian ground forces from taking control of the critical Suvalki Corridor, which runs along the border between Lithuania and Poland.

Not to mention that Chinese balloons have been entering US airspace prior to that. They only recently discovered that.

I keep telling people the US has nothing except it's airforce. And in today's modern warfare, fighter jets are practically useless.
I think they fly so high that they are not considered to be on anybody's airspace. I may be wrong so veify.

⚡ By early 2025, the US and Ukraine could be on the verge of defeat — The Wall Street Journal.

According to the publication, if Donald Trump wins the election, the situation could lead him to choose between two scenarios - the confrontation could simply continue as before, or the US could become much more deeply involved.

The first option is to continue. Fearing defeat, Trump could maintain the Biden administration's policy towards Ukraine, refusing to push for negotiations and continuing to provide various types of military aid.

The second scenario is one of steady escalation. In response to the situation on the battlefield, Trump could change US calculations and provide Ukraine with weapons systems that even the Biden administration was unwilling to allow. He could allow Kiev to use US-supplied weapons on Russian territory.

⚡Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has sacked the head of his personal protection unit after two of its top officials were detained over an alleged assassination plot.

Serhiy Rud has led the president's security detail since 2019.

No reason was given for his dismissal, which was announced in a brief presidential decree.

However, the state guard administration (UDO) is critical for the safety not only of the president but other key figures in Ukraine and their families.

The two colonels in the state guard who were detained on Tuesday are suspected of belonging to a network of agents run by Russia's FSB security service.

Mr Zelensky has spoken of repeated Russian plots to assassinate him, but the latest revelations involved his own entourage and also targeted military intelligence chief Kyrylo Budanov and the head of the SBU state security service, Vasyl Malyuk.

⚡Philippine National Security Adviser Eduardo Año called for the expulsion of Chinese diplomats from country over alleged wiretapping incident.

Chinese Embassy in Manila has orchestrated "repeated acts of spreading disinformation” to sow discord, division and disunity."

Ano was referring to a news report this week of an alleged leak of a call between a Chinese diplomat and a Filipino admiral discussing a dispute over the South China Sea, which carried a transcript that showed the admiral agreeing to concessions with China.

According to the transcript published by the Manila Times, the admiral agreed to China's proposal of a "new model", where the Philippines would use fewer vessels in resupply missions to troops at the disputed Second Thomas Shoal, and notify Beijing about missions in advance.

⚡Massive pro-Palestine protests engulf Malmo, Sweden

Over 10,000 demonstrators gathered in Malmo, Sweden to protest Israel's participation in the Eurovision Song Contest. The protesters lit smoke flares in the colors of the Palestinian flag, and chanted slogans such as "from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" and "Israel is a terrorist state," while calling for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

Despite local police describing the protest as "quiet," they, with the assistance of their Danish and Norwegian counterparts, erected metal barricades and large concrete blocks around Malmo Arena, where the Eurovision Song Contest is taking place.

I guess cutlass and spear and bows are needed.

Because the Russian can't gain air superiority over Ukraine
The clown as downplayed the importance of a formidable airforce

Yet countries like China and the USA are building capacity to attain a New level of deterrence by building aircraft carriers to be able to project power far beyond airbase

Yet Russia was able to protect Assad by using it's airforce against Ragtags in Syria.
