🚨🇷🇺 The essence of the snapback sanctions mechanism in Resolution 2231 is to "keep Iran constantly by the throat" - Lavrov

💬 "Iran's agreement to the resolution with the sanctions snapback mechanism is further confirmation that it does not intend to violate the JCPOA requirements."

The "E3" is unable to reach an agreement on the JCPOA and is engaging in deliberate provocations to economically strangle Iran, Lavrov added.

🚨 Zelensky confirms use of Israeli Patriot Systems despite Israel’s denial

The Israeli Patriot system has been used by the Ukrainian army for a month, Zelensky said at a briefing with journalists, adding that Ukraine will receive two more systems in the fall.

👉 Previously, Israel denied supplying air defense systems to Ukraine.

In June, the Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that Russia had received clarifications from Israel regarding the alleged transfer of Patriot missiles to Ukraine, with these reports being false.

💬 “We are guided by the official assurance from the Israeli side that this country has not supplied and does not intend to supply weapons to Ukraine in the future," Zakharova said.

🇲🇩☦️ Truth breaking through to the West? British pundit blasts Moldova’s crackdown on Orthodox Church

✍️ “The Chisinau government wants to join the EU and is busy sucking up to its future overlords by harassing the Moldovan Orthodox Church, which, though autonomous, is mostly tied to the values and traditions of Russia rather than the liberal West,” James Delingpole, a columnist whose work has appeared in half-a-dozen mainstream UK papers, wrote in a recent Spectator op-ed.

Speaking to a monk, Delingpole discovered that Moldovan priests are being harassed at airports, while others are beaten, and church buildings seized.

"Moldovan priests who won’t support gay marriage, LGBT parades or abortion – almost all of them reflecting the view of their parishioners – are monitored and tailed," the journalist added.

❓ Asking whether Britons “really want to be siding with the EU progressives on this one,” Delingpole stressed that “just because the Russkies are supporting them doesn’t mean they are wrong.”

While the crackdown on Orthodoxy in Moldova has been dismissed as “disinformation” by the EU, and dubbed a Russian “hybrid warfare weapon” or vote-influence operation by legacy media, Sputnik has spent months reporting on the religious denomination’s real plight, and highlighting the dangerous parallels between events in Moldova and the crisis in Ukraine.

⚔️ Germany conducts biggest military drills since Cold War

The Bundeswehr just concluded its largest military exercises in Hamburg — NATO's "Red Storm" drills — simulating troop deployments to the Baltic states and even preparing for domestic protests against the mobilization.

While Berlin frames this as "deterrence," Russia has repeatedly condemned NATO's unprecedented buildup near its borders as deliberate provocation and hostile escalation.
