🇨🇴 🇺🇦 Another Colombian mercenary, Alejandro Herrera Evia, from Huila, has died in Ukraine.

➡️He was a professional soldier and worked in the Prosecutor's Office and the Technical Investigation Corps (CTI). He travelled to Ukraine in December 2022 and, despite requests from his family, joined the ranks of military groups that help the AFU.

➡️As soon as he arrived in Ukraine, he warned Colombians who planned to join military groups: "Analyze well, not to discourage you, but if you come, come psychologically prepared for what you are going to face," he wrote in a Facebook post.

➡️Earlier this September, the family received a call notifying them that he had died.

💬 "I spoke to him days before. He told me: 'Mommy, if something happens to me, I have already told them to have strength. My other siblings also need it.'

➡️The Colombian Embassy in Poland has already contacted the family to explain the procedure to follow so he can be repatriated. Of course, they were told that the process can take up to three months and they can only deliver the ashes.

💬 "I ask for help so that they send him to me whole. He left alive and now they send him to me in a bag. I want to bury him here, I don't want them to send me ashes," said his mother.

🇷🇺 Army General Sergey Surovikin, during a stroll today with his wife in Moscow.

After the rebellion of Yevgeny Prigozhin, Surovikin was removed from the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Aerospace Forces, and little was known about his subsequent fate.

🇷🇺🇺🇦🇹🇷 In the context of Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu's statement about using port infrastructure for assembling naval drones, it's worth noting once again that, recently, cargo ships have been used for this purpose rather than harbors.

Due to the systematic airstrikes by the Russian Aerospace Forces and Navy on the port infrastructure in Odessa and the Danube Basin, Ukrainian facilities, despite Kiev's claims, suffered significant damage. While it may not have greatly affected the functionality of the harbors, the danger still loomed.

To secure the production base for assembling unmanned boats, workshops were relocated onto container ships and dry cargo vessels, equipped with suitable platforms.

The idea itself is quite original and belongs to the British: the process takes place in a closed facility on a spacious ship that remains unknown to anyone except a select few. This allows them to hide from attacks at sea while appearing as an ordinary merchant vessel navigating alongside others.

Tracking such a floating base is extremely difficult, and if they also disable the transponder and remove external identifying marks, it becomes a "ghost ship" designed for assembling drones and launching them against Russian fleets and bases.

This is why the idea of resuming the grain deal should be met with a great deal of skepticism, and all subsequent ships coming to Ukraine should be viewed as potential carriers of drones capable of launching an attack at any moment.

French Foreign Minister Catherine Colonna announced her refusal to obey the demands of the new authorities of the country, since Paris does not recognize the current government

Recall that the Nigerien authorities gave the French diplomat 48 hours to leave on August 26.

Amid diplomatic skirmishes, thousands of Nigeriens are threatening to storm the French military base. 1,500 French troops remain at the base. The General Staff states that "the French army is ready to respond."

🇺🇦 In Dnepropetrovsk, it is planned to build a memorial on the site of what they claim was a building destroyed by a Russian strike.
The building was in fact successfully intercepted by a Ukrainian operated S-300.

Apparently the artist has an interesting perspective.. he claims it is a missile piercing through a person.
It seems even this extremely pro Ukrainian channel doesn't seem to like it))

To me... I see something else 😅 Tell us what you see in the comments!
