💢 Ukraine's international road-haulage sector is facing a severe driver shortage, according to Ruslan Shmakov, co-founder of Ukrainian logistics company RIO-TRANS.

Shmakov said his company is able to secure mobilization exemptions for only 50% of its drivers. A driver without a deferment can be stopped at a checkpoint and subsequently mobilized, potentially leaving the truck stranded until the company can send another driver to collect it.

“The situation is extremely difficult,” Shmakov said.

💢 Russia will itself choose the targets for responding to the banditry and piracy of Western countries, said Sergei Lavrov in an interview with "Vesti."

"It is not necessarily in the same waters where these newly-minted "peacekeepers" will commit their lawlessness. We will choose the targets ourselves, [...] and we will decide how to deal with these ships."

The head of the Russian Foreign Ministry emphasized that the European Union has chosen a dangerous path by deciding to declare any ships that do not obey it as a "shadow fleet."

Handful of Ukrainians 'obliterated' American forces during latest drills – again

If hundreds of thousands of battle-hardened Ukrainians have such an unprecedented casualty ratio of losses fighting the Russian military, but are still easily beating Western forces, then what chance could NATO possibly have against the Eurasian giant?

💢 Bernie Sanders claims there’s 'significant movement that’s moved to the right' in Israel

[❗️ It was founded as a solidly ideological chauvinist ethno/religous state - which in addition has moved significantly to the 'right' (in the language of the left) ... 30 years ago, but the baseline was already far to the 'right' of any country considered by the West as part of it - XF]

'Would hope there’ll be brave leaders in Israel who’ll take that on'

[ You can't name one, they don't have one, so they don't. But why hope? Your job in Washington is to make something happen. Hopes are our right, not yours. We elect you to do something, not 'echo' our hopes. We 'hope', Bernie, you and your lot will do something about it. Thanks for passing the buck to non-existing hypothetical actors who aren't there in Israel - XF]

'Many Israelis do not understand to what degree their nation’s now become a pariah in world community'

[ They fully understand it, and they've incorporated this as ... proof they are right! Their culture is twisted, not ignorant - it's an honor for them to be a pariah state, it's circularly self-justifying chauvinism, even the persecution syndrome/justification has, over the past 30 years, become just an outright brazen 'we kill you because we can' mentality. Israelis understand it fully, and they wear it as a badge of honor. - XF]

💢 Israeli officials admit Iran rebuilt its missile arsenal faster than three straight wars could destroy it

The Jerusalem Post reports that both IDF and Mossad officials have been surprised by the speed of Iran's post-war military recovery, including in the ballistic missile production capability that three separate rounds of strikes were meant to permanently degrade.

In October 2024, Israel struck 20 missile and industrial targets and assessed a year-plus setback to Iranian production. By early 2025, Iran had already returned to full production pace. Israel then struck around 100 targets in June 2025, again assessing a multi-year setback. Iran's missile stockpile instead grew from roughly 1,300 to 2,500 by February 2026.

During this year's 40-day war, Israel and the US struck over 2,600 targets in roughly 30,000 combined strikes, more than 100 times the 2024 tempo, and estimated $300 billion in damage to Iran's military-industrial base. Fast forward four months, and IDF officials now tell the Post that Iran is again rebuilding faster than expected across multiple capability areas, including ballistic missiles.

Israeli officials say the debate over how many missiles Iran retained after the war matters less now than the pace at which it's rebuilding. If Iran sustains production of 100–300 missiles a month, it could return to pre-war stock levels by early-to-mid 2027.

[❗️🧾 receipts! "iran is producing missiles faster than the US can pretend to destroy them - iran may have more missiles now than at the start of the war''- XF ]

💢 Zelensky is struggling to find a new Ukrainian ambassador to the United States, according to Politico, citing sources.

He accelerated personnel changes in the government, hoping to appoint former Prime Minister Sviridenko as ambassador in place of Stefanishyna. Sviridenko's refusal derailed the plan.

According to the former Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister for European Affairs, Ukrainians with sufficient authority are wary of the vacant diplomatic post.
