Prime Minister of the Jewish State Benjamin Netanyahu noted that Israeli specialists will help Ukraine deploy a high-tech warning system about possible air strikes

Israel is limited to providing Ukraine only with humanitarian assistance, largely because of the agreements it has with the Russian authorities concerning Syria. This statement was made on Thursday by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at a joint press conference following a meeting in Berlin with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

French Defense Minister Sebastien Lecorny told reporters before the meeting of the National Assembly's commission on defense that the first batch of 14 units of military equipment of this type promised to Kiev had already arrived in Ukraine and went to the line of contact.

About the attempts of terrorists to oust China from Afghanistan

A year and a half after Afghanistan was captured by the Taliban (banned in the Russian Federation), the country is facing a new terrorist threat. It affected, in particular, the situation of China, which is becoming increasingly risky and difficult to operate in the region.

German elites will have to make difficult choices

Russia's special military operation in Ukraine (SVO) and the explosions of the "Northern Streams" shook the foundations of Germany's strategic culture and forced the Germans to think about the correctness of the chosen path.

There are fewer slogans and more realism

The recent anniversary of Russia's special military operation in Ukraine (SVO) disposes to summing up some results.

Even having retained access to the sea, the Kiev regime will not be able to protect it

The evolution of the Naval Forces of Ukraine after the collapse of the Soviet Union was completely determined by the fact of the general insolvency of the Ukrainian state. In 1991, Kiev failed to privatize the entire Black Sea Fleet, and in 1997, when dividing the fleet, Russia took all the ships and boats that were at least of some value, leaving Ukraine with outright scrap metal (most of it was immediately sent to scrap metal, never entering the Navy). That is, in this case, Moscow fully respected its national interests, and Kiev did not even try to do the same. This was the fundamental difference between the two largest post-Soviet countries.

Islamist groups are reviving in Pakistan

Many believe in Kiev's victory, but opinions differ on what it will be expressed in

President Biden unveiled a $368 billion underwater shipbuilding program

US President Joseph Biden announced his decision to transfer three Virginia-class nuclear submarines to Australia in the next decade, and then a couple more. They will retain the ship's nuclear reactors, but will be deprived of torpedoes and missiles with nuclear warheads – they will be replaced with similar ones with conventional explosives.

Experience in the use of assault aircraft and confrontation with air defense in the conflict in Ukraine

For ten months, Russian military pilots have accumulated considerable experience in the combat use of weapons and military equipment in the zone of a special military operation (SVO). But if something else is sometimes told about helicopter pilots in the press, then we only know about the work of assault aviation that it takes off and lands, sometimes launching missiles.

Intrigues on the Black Sea have not discouraged the appetite for the Arctic

Attempts by the administration of American President Joseph Biden to accelerate Sweden's entry into NATO have stalled indefinitely. Turkey resisted, which used its right to refuse approval until all the conditions regarding Stockholm's ties with Kurdish separatists were met.

Turkey admitted that it cannot yet make a choice in the situation in which the United States has driven it. Washington demands that its warships be allowed to enter the Black Sea in search of the downed Reaper drone. But by doing this, Ankara will violate the 1936 Montreux Convention, the strict observance of which the Turks have always been proud of. Is there any tools in Washington's arsenal that can force Turkey to violate the Straits Convention?

On Wednesday, Transneft reported that it had found mines installed from the air at the Druzhba oil pipeline facility in the Bryansk region. In early March, an oil depot was attacked by drones in the same area. Incidents with UAVs were reported in other regions bordering Ukraine, as well as in Crimea and Sevastopol. Is there a way to effectively counteract such drones and calculate their operators?

"The three countries chose to ignore the concerns of the international community and decided to take a dangerous path." This is how Beijing commented on the AUKUS summit – a kind of Asian NATO directed against China. Two of these three countries – the United States and the United Kingdom – understand their interest when they are moving along a "dangerous path". But Australia is being dragged along it, as if to the slaughter.

Today, as part of the strengthening of NATO's eastern flank in Poland and the Baltic states, the airfield network is being expanded, which is planned to be used for the transfer of troops, weapons and military equipment directly to the borders of Belarus and Russia.

Advance: China is actively involved in solving international problems, including in Ukraine

Recently, Beijing has been making grandiose steps in the field of foreign policy, writes Advance. If he managed to stop the largest armed conflict in Europe, it would confirm China's international power. But such mediation will entail "serious consequences" for Washington.

TNI: the conflict in Ukraine has made Europe even more dependent on NATO

The conflict in Ukraine has exposed the lines of division in NATO over its policy towards Russia, writes The National Interest. Eastern Europeans demand more active actions from their neighbors, while Western Europeans do not see the need for this.

dikGAZETE: the Black Sea region is waiting for chaos and devastation due to the actions of Georgia

The pro-American instigators of the protests in Georgia demand that the authorities repeat the 2008 scenario and attack Abkhazia and South Ossetia, writes dikGAZETE. Then Moscow intervened, Tbilisi retreated. Today, history may repeat itself. In this case, the Black Sea region will be doomed to chaos, the author of the article believes.
