This is in-fighting within the KGB. They said they solved the case in 2 days, with forged documents aplenty. They are known for such shoddy work.

Ukraine has more important fish to fry.

Meanwhile, Ukrainians celebrate independence day in Kyiv on the ruins of invader tanks.

Meanwhile, in Russian occupied Crimea, Russian airbases are taken out by Ukraine.

The Russian tourists were as delusional as some one here. They were sent packing back to Russia. No war.... Hilarious.

The natural response is to feel sorry for a daughter. Some further reading adds a bit of context. She was just like her father:

Dugin's daughter:
'Ukrainians are not humans. They all deserve to die.'

Claimed that the Ukrainian identity is an artificial concept created by the Nazi West, and only exists in small pockets of West Ukraine.

Called for Azovstal defenders to be put on spikes and to let civilians have their way with them

Called Ukrainian defenders sub-human, and compared them to ISIS.

Russian occupied Crimea yesterday.

This is the museum in question.

Word of advice - if you want to see these artifacts together then book a flight to London and visit this museum. They'll be 'lost', under 'repair', or 'loaned' within as they get to Nigeria. I wonder how many of the original 36 will be on display? Single figures?

Misleading headline, BBC sources probably means BBC employees within Nigeria but it is nice to know their sentiment. BBC HQ in UK would never release a press that can be interpreted as 'slamming' anyone.

China is more politically and economically stable than america. Except u are an Obidient nitwit who confuses reality with fantasy.

Continue with your delusional worship of despots and dictators - maybe you'll be accepted into bot academy one day.

seunaj:
They love war. This is the same way they pushed Ukraine into a needless war.

Let's ignore the fact Russia declared war on a sovereign nation to satisfy our rampant anti-Americanism.

The racist Chinese need to learn to respect the will of the people.

Russia and China. Both warmongering countries hell-bent on their own pathetic image to keep things stable at home.

The ignorance of Nairalanders to basic levels of science is both astounding and embarrassing.

Widely acknowledged that this is political posturing. There is no way in hell they could afford their own, brand new space station. Their space tech is basically Soviet era anyway - 2030 is the expiry date.

A chess-playing robot broke a child's finger during a tournament in Russia last week, with the incident being captured in CCTV footage.

The robot grabbed the seven-year-old boy's finger because it was confused by his overly-quick movements, Russian media outlets reported, quoting the President of the Moscow Chess Federation - who seemingly blamed the child.

'The robot broke the child's finger - this, of course, is bad,' Sergey Lazarev told Russia's TASS news agency, while distancing his organisation from the robot.

The incident occurred at the Moscow Open on July 19. Lazarev said that the federation had rented the robot for the event, which ran from July 13 to 21.

Lazarev said that the machine had been hired for many previous events without incident, saying the boy went to move a piece too quickly after making a move.

'The robot was rented by us, it has been exhibited in many places, for a long time, with specialists. Apparently, the operators overlooked it,' Lazarev said.

'The child made a move, and after that we need to give time for the robot to answer, but the boy hurried , the robot grabbed him. We have nothing to do with the robot.'

Video of the incident was published by the Baza Telegram channel, who said the boy's name was Christopher. Baza said he was among the 30 best chess players in Moscow in the under-nine age group category.

According to The Guardian, Sergey Smagin, vice-president of the Russian Chess Federation, went even further in blaming the boy.

'There are certain safety rules and the child, apparently, violated them. When he made his move, he did not realise he first had to wait,' The Guardian quoted Smagin as saying. 'This is an extremely rare case, the first I can recall.'

Upon grabbing the boy's finger, the mechanical arms freezes in place, trapping the boy who begins to panic. Several people standing around the table rush in to help him, and after a few seconds are able to free him from the robot's grip.

Lazarev said in his statement that the boy was able to return to the tournament the following day in a case, and finished the tournament.

However, he told TASS that the boy's parents had contacted the public prosecutor's office about the incident, and that his organisation had been contacted by Moskomsport - the Department of Sport for the Russian capital.

He offered to help the family 'in any way we can,' and warned that the operators of the robot were going to have to 'think about strengthening protection so that this situation does not happen again.'

Smagin told RIA Novosti that the incident was a 'concidence' and said the robot is 'absolutely safe,' The Guardian reported.

'It has performed at many opens. Apparently, children need to be warned. It happens,' Smagin said - calling the robot 'unique'.

This should be FP. How the 'mighty' have fallen in the space of a few months. I wonder why? ...

The thieving Russians had no choice after their ship full of stolen grain was confiscated by Turkey.

See the sweat pouring down that kid's face. Pretty inhumane to dress then up like that in such extreme heat.

Crazy, just imagine being under those wool garments. But lucky for them the heat passed.

Even the Queen's Guards are needing to be watered so they don't faint.

The Queen's Guard, British Guards, and Queen's Life Guard (called King's Guard and King's Life Guard when the reigning monarch is male) are the names given to contingents of infantry and cavalry soldiers charged with guarding the official royal residences in the United Kingdom. The British Army has regiments of both Horse Guards and Foot Guards predating the English Restoration (1660), and since the reign of King Charles II these regiments have been responsible for guarding the Sovereign's palaces. The Guards are fully operational soldiers.

A picture of a member of Queen Elizabeth II's guard receiving water to drink during the hot weather outside Buckingham Palace in London on Monday is going viral amid the heatwave that has pushed temperatures into the mid-40s Celsius in some regions of Britain.

Much of Europe is baking in a heatwave with wildfires raging across tinder-dry countryside in Portugal, Spain and France.

A first-ever red “extreme heat” warning for parts of England on Monday and Tuesday has been issued by the weather forecaster and a national emergency has been declared for the two days. Britain had recorded its highest ever temperature on July 25, 2019 and it was 38.7 degrees Celsius.

The heatwave has forced the train companies to cancel services and some schools to close, while ministers urged the public to stay at home. London's metro network imposed temporary speed restrictions, meaning it would run a reduced service with journeys taking longer than normal. It urged commuters to stay at home, according to Reuters.

On Sunday, authorities across southern Europe battled to control huge wildfires in these countries, with hundreds of deaths blamed on soaring temperatures that scientists say are consistent with climate change.

Also, Britain's Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has raised the heat health warning to Level 4 for England for Monday and Tuesday, news agency Reuters reported. A Level 4 red alert is defined as a national emergency, and is used when a heatwave "is so severe and/or prolonged that its effects extend outside the health and social care system. At this level, illness and death may occur among the fit and healthy, and not just in high-risk groups."

When in Rome. The gall to bring race into it.

Storm in a teacup.

Unfortunately for her this stage, where fellow MPs vote, is only the first stage. By far the hardest will be when the 100k conservatives members are given a vote, and they are mostly elderly, traditional people who live in rural areas.

Who knows, she may be in a position to get a senior cabinet position though

Abujaexpress:
Nice move how?

Is Southampton FC that might be fighting for relegation next season, a better team than Rangers, champions of the Scottish League and will be in Europe next season?

He has got a bad agent, otherwise the best was for the Agent to negotiate for better pay for Joe.

Most of the teams in the Scottish league couldn't even compete in League One/Two standard in England. There is no competition bar Celtic.

Playing in the biggest league in the world, against world class players, will make all the difference in his development.

U.S Army & Marine Intelligence Officer, Scott Ritter;


Scott Ritter is an external Contributor to Energy Intelligence. He is a former US Marine Corps Intelligence Officer .....

Why is this not stressed in opening description? An attempt to mislead?

He is a well known nutter and fringe figure obsessed with dissing NATO.

Serious stuff. How is this not FP.

As ever with Putin it's all bark and no bite. Can't call their pathetic invasion a bite.

Russia invaded a neighbor.

RUSSIA ARE A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER.

This kind of action is exactly why NATO exists and why Putin is salesperson of the year for NATO. It proves why their existence is necessary so another dictator like Hitler doesn't steam roll Europe.

Get your heads out of the sand.
