The UN has repeatedly warned about their chemical toxicity and consequences for human health. But the Pentagon continues to insist on the "safety" of weapons.

Three of the latest multiple launch rocket systems have entered service with the Korean People's Army. The combat vehicles were transferred to the Military Children's Union of Korea. This is reported by TASS with reference to the KCNA agency.

The Chinese state-owned multi-profile holding NORINCO is actively promoting weapons systems of its own design to foreign markets.

The beginning of Ukraine's counteroffensive was marked by serious losses on its part, writes a NetEase user. The APU launched a frontal attack without preliminary reconnaissance and failed. Their best armored vehicles were trapped in a Russian minefield and were instantly destroyed.

The Western armored vehicles supplied by the sponsors of the regime for the Ukrainian army turned out to be too delicate for use in combat conditions in Ukraine, besides, about 20% of the received vehicles were delivered in absolutely non-working condition.

The heavy losses of Western armored vehicles suffered by the AFU during the counteroffensive in the Zaporozhye direction will be compensated by new supplies. The United States is ready to transfer another batch of Bradley infantry fighting vehicles to Ukraine. This is reported by the American press with reference to sources in the Pentagon.

Defense Minister Pistorius said that Germany will not be able to replace every damaged tank in Ukraine

Germany, amid reports of the loss of German Leopard tanks by Ukraine, promised to continue supporting Kiev. At the same time, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said that the German side would not be able to undertake obligations to repair every tank transferred to Ukraine that was damaged in battle.

The fighting has shown that the troops need to modernize their weapons. And an updated Kalashnikov assault rifle was sent to the front. About what shortcomings have been corrected — in the material of RIA Novosti.

Russian weapons have long and deservedly gained worldwide fame and recognition and maintain their reputation at a constantly high level: from the famous Kalashnikov assault rifle, which has become synonymous with simplicity, strength and reliability, to the ultra-modern hypersonic Kinzhal missile system, protection from which will not be found soon.

The President said that four marine drones participated in the attack, they were destroyed

The House Armed Services Committee (HASC) of the US Congress has partially approved the Pentagon's proposed program for the early decommissioning of eleven Navy warships in fiscal year 2024, the online publication USNI News reports.

A ceremony of the official transfer of the first OPV-58S (Offshore Patrol Vessel) class patrol ship, "Walo", to the command of the Senegalese Navy took place at the enterprise of the French company Piriou in Brittany.

Putin: the future command staff of the Russian Armed Forces should consist of those with combat experience

The future command staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation should be made up of people proven by combat actions who did not flinch.

Geostrategic dreams and unexpected solutions

It is often claimed that the conflict in Ukraine has caused the aggravation of Russia's relations with the United States and NATO. In my opinion, these are fairy tales for the unenlightened European inhabitants.

From military-technical cooperation to military-political

Russian-Chinese relations are characterized by a desire for cooperation. Another important factor that unites Russia and China is the complementarity of their economies. In the long term, China needs ever-increasing amounts of energy from Siberia and the Far East, as well as technologies, especially military ones.

However, the new requirements of armed struggle require a lightning reaction

The Special Military Operation (SVO) pursues the goals of denazification and demilitarization of Ukraine. At the moment, the main results of its implementation were the acquisition of control over almost the entire territory of the LPR, and partially – the DPR, Kherson and Zaporozhye regions. However, the new territories of the Russian Federation are being systematically shelled by the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU).

This was reported on Monday by the Global Times newspaper with reference to the opinion of experts of the People's Republic of China.

While analysts are working with the facts to determine the culprit of the incident, propagandists committed to the principles of McCarthyism have already hung labels, writes the Czech portal Parlamentní list. They have not read international security treaties, but they know exactly who is responsible for all the troubles of Ukraine.

Just a few days after the start of the counteroffensive, the Ukrainian army has already faced numerous problems, writes The Wall Street Journal. The West is waiting for a return on investment in the form of successes on the battlefield, and Ukrainian soldiers are simply dying under Russian grads.

An influential organization, consisting mainly of enemies of Moscow, ordered a public opinion poll, the results of which were disappointing for her. The population of Europe does not believe in the possibility of Russia's defeat in Ukraine, does not want to quarrel with China and does not believe that dependence on the United States is a blessing. How will George Soros respond to this?
