🇺🇸❌🇮🇷 — CENTCOM has published footage of the recent strikes against Iran.

The strikes targeted Iranian command centers, drone storage, communication networks, coastal surveillance sites, and maritime assets.

📝 🇺🇦 🇷🇺 Ukraine hit Wildberries logistics hubs in St. Petersburg, Tver and Russian-occupied Simferopol overnight into July 24 — extending a campaign against Russia's largest online retailer into its seventh day.

Wildberries confirmed one of its Simferopol warehouses was struck, without detailing damage; the St. Petersburg and Tver fires are reported by Russian Telegram channels and, per the Kyiv Independent, not independently verified.

St. Petersburg is the significant part. It sits 1,100 km from Ukraine's border, is Putin's hometown, and has rarely been targeted in the full-scale war because of the air-defense concentration around it. Residents posted video of thick black smoke over part of the city. Ukrainian drone advances have increasingly penetrated defenses around fortified cities including Moscow and now St. Petersburg — a reach that matters more than any single warehouse.

The economic toll is now substantial: analysts estimate at least 100 billion rubles (~$1.2 billion) in damage across the recent strikes. The run is relentless — Elektrostal and Kotovsk (July 18), Podolsk (July 20), Krasnodar and Stavropol (July 22), Voronezh (July 23), and now three more.

The justification remains Kyiv's own. Zelensky said after the July 18 strike that the warehouses "supply war materiel: navigation equipment, components for drone production, and other supplies for the Russian army," and Wildberries does list drone components and body armor on its site. But that characterization hasn't been independently established, and the July 18 strikes killed eight civilian warehouse workers.

🇺🇸🏡 - America's Small Towns and Suburbs Are About To Get A Lot More Diverse

Donald Trump has twice campaigned promising to keep “low-income” housing from entering suburbs and rural areas.

Last weekend, the president betrayed his voters once again by refusing to either sign or veto the 21st Century Road to Housing Act. This allowed the bill seeking to build state-subsidized favelas in suburban and rural locations, passed by huge majorities in both parties, to automatically become law.
