🇺🇸🪖❗️ — CNN reports that a second US Navy jet was lost at the Red Sea from USS Truman aircraft carrier

➡️ Another F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter jet from the USS Harry S. Truman aircraft carrier has been lost in the Red Sea, the second jet lost from the carrier in just over a week, four people familiar with the matter told CNN.

➡️ It is not entirely clear what happened yet, as the investigation is ongoing, but two of the people said there was some kind of arrestment failure as the jet was trying to land on the carrier and the pilot and weapons systems officer had to eject.

➡️ They were recovered by a rescue helicopter and are both alive, but they suffered minor injuries, one of the people said.

➡️ The jet crashed into the sea and has not been recovered, two of the people familiar with the incident said.

🇻🇪⚡️🤝🇺🇸 — María Corina Machado describes as “impeccable and epic” the operation that managed to get the five opposition members out of the Argentine Embassy in Caracas, where they had taken refuge since March 2024. They are now safe in the U.S. after more than a year under siege and without basic conditions:

"An impeccable and epic operation for the Freedom of five heroes of Venezuela.

My recognition and infinite gratitude to all those who made it possible.

We are going to free each one of our 900 heroes imprisoned by this tyranny and 30 MILLION VENEZUELANS!

And with Freedom, will come the irreversible change to a Venezuela of Prosperity, Justice, and Peace!"

Admin comment:

➡️ Previously, when an agreement was made for the Venezuelan regime not to harm family members of exiled political figure Edmundo González, the regime made every effort to display photos and records of the moment he was forced to sign a document.

➡️ When María Corina Machado was deliberately arrested, all Chavista media broadcast a video in which she was forced to give multiple statements, spreading it among allies and media outlets, such as the Brazilian newspaper 'ICL Notícias'.

➡️ In every plan involving the Venezuelan regime, the regime itself tends to enthusiastically publicize how it is in control of everything. Today, we didn't see that. Silence surrounds Miraflores.

➡️ The operation involved a disguised aircraft with altered registration to hide any possible ties to political or American operations. The decisions were discreetly sent via the Signal messaging app to a trusted embassy staff member, who only shared the information with the others just a few hours beforehand, leaving no trace that could be tracked by Venezuelan intelligence.

➡️ The transport was swift: an unmarked van that changed course several times to avoid being followed, taking routes that match those also monitored by the Venezuelan intelligence service (SEBIN).

➡️ If the United States managed to extract five opposition members from the very heart of the Chavista regime without firing a single shot or raising suspicion, the message is clear: Nicolás Maduro no longer controls even his own ground — and will need to be more careful in Miraflores.

🇮🇳❌🇵🇰 — Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri says Pakistan-based terrorists planned more attacks:

"Our intelligence indicated that further attacks against India are impending.

Thus,  compulsion, both to deter and prevent and hence earlier this morning, India exercised its right to respond to deter such more cross-border terrorism...

Our actions were measured and non-escalatory, proportionate and responsible.

They focused on dismantling terrorists' infrastructure."

🇮🇳❌🇵🇰 — Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri says preemptive strikes were necessary:

"...It was deemed essential that the perpetrators and planners of the Pahalgam attack be brought to justice.

Despite a fortnight having passed, there has been no demonstrable step from Pakistan against terrorists' infrastructure in its area."

🇵🇰Analysts tracking South Asia’s cyber domain note that Pakistan already fields localized SIGINT sweeps, silent SIM swaps, comms jamming and OTP relay manipulation, capabilities recently given formal legal cover, while the GPS disruption Indian pilots reported during Balakot shows that jamming platforms remain active and evolving.

🇨🇳 They assess that China supplies an ISR‑denial tier: BeiDou blind spots over the LoC, satellite‑drift incidents logged by Ladakh patrols, and APT‑linked malware tied to the 2020 Mumbai blackout, malcode that reportedly entered India’s grid through Southeast‑Asian shell firms.

🇹🇷 Turkish partnerships, formalised in 2022 defence pacts, appear to furnish EW kits proven in Libya and Karabakh, plus operator training in credential spoofing and covert narrative operations. Iranian playbooks on staggered grid interference and logistics sabotage, first field‑tested against Bahraini oil assets and Iraqi power networks, have reportedly transited to Islamabad through deniable channels.

🇮🇳Coordination among these actors is inferred from overlapping partnerships rather than publicly confirmed joint command, yet observers describe a plausible four‑nation stack capable of delaying GST uploads, scrambling inter‑bank sync windows, or seeding phantom AIS targets off India’s coasts, moves that would force Indian analysts to confront failures without clear attribution. In this model China handles uplink drift, Turkey provides tactical payloads, Iran shares timing doctrine, and Pakistan integrates execution, producing structural fatigue with no overt fingerprints while CPEC traffic keeps flowing.

🇮🇳🇵🇰India and Pakistan’s latest military standoff reflects a broader global shift as the U.S. and China deepen ties with opposing sides in South Asia.

India, historically nonaligned, has moved closer to the U.S. and its allies, sharply reducing its reliance on Russian arms, while Pakistan has become a major Chinese client.

India now sources a significant portion of its weapons from the U.S., France, and Israel, cutting Russian supplies by over 50% since 2010. Pakistan, meanwhile, gets about 80% of its arms from China.

India’s military is rapidly modernizing with U.S. and Western platforms, while Pakistan doubles down on Chinese technology, including J-10C jets and long-range missiles.
