📰 — 🇺🇦/🇷🇺 An analysis to #Russia’s Su-34 and Su-35S fighter jets found out that of 1,119 distinct components identified inside the jets, an almost unbelievable 1,115 were made by companies headquartered in the US, Germany, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, or France.
These aren't obscure parts or numbers; they are essentially every part of the plane that flies, navigates, and kills. Each of these chips serves a critical function, from radar and guidance systems to flight control and communications.
Despite sanctions, the Kremlin continues receiving Western technology through "gray" schemes. Components reach Russia through a complex network of Russian importers and foreign suppliers, including intermediaries and shell companies in China, Hong Kong, Turkey, UAE, and certain EU countries.

🇵🇸/🇮🇱 Yesterday, 12 armed Hamas operatives emerged from a tunnel in Khan Younis near a logistics route used by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), and set up an ambush near the route, hiding under blankets to avoid detection.
Troops from Golani’s 13th Battalion spotted them and deployed a “Zik” drone, prompting the militants to flee back into the tunnel.
A Hamas drone was also detected, likely used to monitor the ambush and cover the retreat. The IDF believes the goal was to kidnap soldiers.

🇷🇺 Imagery from “Umbra Space” synthetic aperture radar (SAR)-capable satellite, captured yesterday morning, shows Russia’s far east Rybachiy nuclear submarine base in Kamchatka peninsula to have been damaged by the tsunami that swept the country’s Pacific coast, which was triggered by an 8.8 magnitude earthquake, benting a section of one pier away from its original position.
The base houses most of the nuclear submarines in Russia’s Pacific Fleet, including newer Borei-class craft and Soviet-era Deltas.

📰 — 🇷🇺/🇮🇷 According to Iranin defense site Birun, Iran conducted its first live operational test of the Russian-made S-400 “Triumf” air defense system near Isfahan on July 26.
The test involved a fully configured battery, including the 91N6E “Big Bird” surveillance radar, the 92N6E “Grave Stone” engagement radar, command-and-control (C2) units, and 5P85TE2 launchers.
Missiles used were likely 48N6E3 and possibly the 40km-range 40N6. Local activity and radar signals detected by Iranian OSINT platforms, according to the site, suggest the test was part of a broader air defense drill.

📰 — 🇮🇷/🇮🇱/🇺🇸 According to al-Monitor, citing an Israeli security source, #Israel’s aerial campaign in the 12-Day War against Iran took the nuclear program back one to two years.
He added that there is no active nuclear project in #Iran, and the reconstruction will take time. In the event of a complete destruction to the program, the source said that this is an impossible task from a military point of view in light of the broad dispersal of the project and its defenses, but he insisted that the goal of removing Iran's immediate nuclear threat and causing heavy damage to the project has been fully achieved.
Asked about the uranium Iran currently possesses, the source said that turning the remaining stockpiles into weapons-grade fissile material would entail a complex engineering process requiring six months to a year to accomplish, and that chances of US or Israeli intelligence being unaware of such activity are negligible to none.
