India's military doctrine is built on taking on Pak and China?
Simultaneously?
Have they begun smoking Trump over there?
Is this the new definition of hubris?
I still can wrap my head around it.
I experienced "shock & awe" after reading that.
Kai!
Some countries dreams tall; others own long!
This India own I think na "long" dream.
I wish them a good night rest!
They'll certainly need it in the morning when they fully wake up to the roar of the dragon!
They've beat Pakistan in the past, including when both China and the US aided Pakistan.
And China and India used to have roughly the same GDP per capita until the Soviet Union collapsed.
So for a while, the military doctrine of taking on both was valid.

Times have changed.
They're not mates anymore.
But the Indians still reminisce about the past when China was in their weight class.

⚡Iran receives Chinese surface-to-air missile batteries after Israel ceasefire deal.

Iran has taken possession of Chinese surface-to-air missile batteries as Tehran rapidly moves to rebuild defensives destroyed by Israel during their recent 12-day conflict, sources have told Middle East Eye.

The deliveries of Chinese surface-to-air missile batteries occurred after a de-facto truce was struck between Iran and Israel on 24 June, an Arab official familiar with the intelligence told MEE.


Another Arab official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive intelligence, said that the US's Arab allies were aware of Tehran's efforts to "back up and reinforce" its air defences and that the White House had been informed of Iran's progress.

The officials did not say how many surface-to-air missiles, or SAMs, Iran had received from China since the end of the fighting. However, one of the Arab officials said that Iran was paying for the SAMs with oil shipments.

Iran Acquires Chinese Missiles After Ceasefire With Israel

Iran has received Chinese surface-to-air missile (SAM) batteries following its recent 12-day conflict with Israel.

The delivery, made after a de facto ceasefire on June 24, is part of Tehran’s effort to rebuild its air defences destroyed during Israeli strikes.

Iran is reportedly paying for the missile systems with oil shipments, deepening its trade ties with Beijing. China already imports nearly 90% of Iran’s crude exports, often using transshipment routes through countries like Malaysia to bypass US sanctions.

While the number and type of missiles transferred remain unclear, Iran is believed to operate various Chinese and Russian air defence systems, including the HQ-9 and Russia's S-300. These defences are seen as limited against advanced Israeli aircraft like the US-made F-35.

Instead of supplying ADs,

For those that keep saying US/Israel air defense systems are better than Russian air defense systems.

What happened to the recent Ukrainian HIMARS, drone and missile strikes? Over 300 missiles/drones.

Bcuz even Ukranian channels have not reported a single hit.

Over a dozen Storm Shadow missiles and Sea USVs were launched at the Crimean Bridge alone.

What happened to them?

This is just one instance oh, it happens everyday but does not make the news.

The last Iranian strike was about 300 missiles and at least 40% got through and we all saw the destruction it caused. Israel is the most defended airspace on earth.

The fact that we don't have your time doesn't mean there was no hit. While you are busy scouring irrelevant Lord Bebo on Twitter and random telegram channels, we know where to find it when we want to run salt in your face.

⚡Russian drones hit Ukrainian recruitment centers in Zaporozhye and Kharkov.

1. Wasn't it same you that said they use to grab people off the street to conscript into the army? What will they need a recruitment center for since they grab people off the street?

2. Wasn't it same you that said there are no more able bodied men in Ukraine? When you were confronted with their football league going on, you said the people playing it are foreigners. Who are the ones in the recruitment centers, if there is even a recruitment center?

Try dey double check your falsehoods because of future checks.

“An American is once again riding his favorite political seesaw.
“I’m satisfied with the conversation with Putin.”
“I’m disappointed with the conversation with Putin.”
“We are not sending new weapons to Ukraine.”
“We will send a lot of weapons to Ukraine for defence.”
How should we take this?
Just like before. Just like our soldiers do. Just like the Supreme Commander-in-Chief does.
Not at all.
Keep pursuing the goals of the Special Military Operation.
Take back our land.
Work for Victory.”

sUrE.

You do know Iran already received Yak trainers.
They already built underground hangars for the jet.
They already received a few units.

Why would they do all that and receive all that for stuff they haven't paid for and Russia didn't say was being delivered?
There are payment terms for deals of this nature.
To date, I can't find any report that the lack of delivery was caused by payment issues.
If you have access to one such report, please share.

-Lord
It was a swap deal.

Su-35 for Iranian drones & Ballistic missiles. Russia was not satisfied with the deal.

Iran's latest fighter jet deal with China is also a swap deal. Oil for fighter jets.

But Russia has oil so Iran could only offer drones and missiles.

Even Elensky himself avoid Ukrainian military conscription. He was summoned multiple times yet he refused.

"While the mass mobilisation is ongoing on the streets of all Ukrainian cities and villages, it turned out that the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of Ukraine, President Vladimir Zelensky, evaded military service 4 times since since the beginning of the war in Donbass.

The media remembered the post published by the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense on April 13, 2019. According to the official report, then future president of Ukraine received summonses 4 times in 2014 and 2015, but he never came to the military enlistment office.."
