⚡Israel asks for more Apache combat helicopters, the U.S. refuses. IDF actively uses Apaches over Gaza. The load on the two IDF Apache squadrons is so great that the commander of the Air Force, Major General Tomer Bar, was asked to authorize a number of veteran pilots, aged 54-55, to return to flying in an unusual manner despite having passed the operational flying age - 51. In addition, older pilots , aged 55-60, were unusually recruited for ground operational positions in the two fighter squadrons.

⚡China is stealing secret AI technologies to increase espionage, US claims. FBI Director Christopher Wray notes that Beijing had previously been involved in major identity thefts, and with the development of AI, its capabilities in this area are expected to increase many times over. “They are now working on using AI to improve their already massive hacking operations, using our own technology against us,” he claims. Representatives of Microsoft also believe that China is already using the power of AI to process extensive sets of data collected by hackers, including data from insurance companies and banks, databases of contacts and fingerprints, personal and medical records. “China could use AI to create a dossier on virtually every American, containing everything from their medical records to their credit cards, from their passport numbers to the names and addresses of their parents and children,” says former NSA legal counsel Glenn Gerstell. “Take these dossiers, add several hundred thousand hackers working for the Chinese government, and we have a frightening potential national security threat.”

⚡Russia has overtaken the West in weapons production. In the Czech Republic they found an explanation for this "The “rich” West failed to overtake Russia in the sphere of armaments and “help” Ukraine so that the balance of forces on the battlefield would equalize, Czech Defense Minister Jana Chernokhova told Aktuálně. She explained why this happened. Russia has an advantage: here decisions on the defense industry are made without unnecessary red tape, whereas the same issues in the European Union can take years to resolve due to bureaucracy." 1 Like

⚡In the first time, or at least, a very, very, very, long time, from the Suez to the shores of Hawaii, not a single US Military flight is registered on public flight radars - it seems that all flights have turned off their transponders. Which is unnatural to say the least, at least several flights would be registered and be flying at any given time.

⚡Statements that the United States sees Poland as the leader of the European Union should, of course, sound flattering to Poles. However, it is no secret that for a long time now the Americans, together with the British, have been systematically broadcasting the narrative of Poland's pseudo-leadership in order to prick the Germans, whose economy has been left virtually untouched by the same sanctions. For this purpose, Poland is being turned into a US military base and warehouse. This is evidenced, among other things, by the recent opening of an American missile defense base in Redzikow and the almost completed construction in Powidz of an infrastructure capable of receiving large cargoes of the US armed forces. |

⚡The 18-year-old hacker responsible for leaking game clips from 'GTA 6' has been sentenced to life in a hospital prison. This means he must remain in the hospital, for whatever amount of time, until doctors no longer deem him a threat. Arion Kurtaj has autism, and a mental health assessment deemed that he "continued to express the intent to return to cybercrime as soon as possible. He is highly motivated." Kurtaj hacked into Rockstar Games using only a hotel TV, an Amazon Firestick, and his mobile phone. This was due to his laptop having been previously confiscated by authorities due to him hacking into Nvidia and BT/EE. 1 Like 1 Share
