🇮🇱❌🇮🇷 — 📰 Jerusalem Post reports that Israel will refrain from striking Iranian nuclear targets during the 1st Stage of the retaliation, but focus on military targets,

➡️ Israel is not expected to attack Iran's nuclear program but rather to focus on various kinds of military bases and intelligence sites, the Jerusalem Post has learned, following a New York Times report on the issue.

➡️ Confronted with the Times report, sources did not deny the thrust of the report, which predicted that Israel's retaliation against Iran for its massive October 1 strike on the Jewish state would fall more in the medium range of attack scenarios.

➡️ Further, the Post understands that Israel's attack on Iran - which virtually all top Israeli officials have publicly promised - will still be much more substantial than its narrower retaliation on April 19, when Iran's S-300 anti-aircraft missile system was damaged.

➡️ Despite being presented with the idea that the current context could be a once-in-50-year opportunity to attack Iran's nuclear facilities, sources indicated that attacking Iran's nuclear program would not necessarily be consistent with the "goals of the war" as set by the security cabinet.

🇨🇳🇬🇧🇪🇺 Comparison of CO2 emissions between China, the EU and the UK.

📝: The key to prosperity in the modern age is cheap energy. While China is mining and burning more coal than ever to sustain the massive manufacturing industry it has built, the UK and the EU are dismantling every bit of their industries simply because they have made coal, the cheapest resource, the most expensive one with carbon certificates and other taxes.

Now, British and EU leaders wonder how come all of their industries left for other countries and are scrambling to find ways to make them come back without making coal cheaper, which will never work.

While pollution is undeniably a problem, the solution is not to abandon coal, rather make coal cleaner.

🇰🇵❌🇰🇷❗️ — North Korean State media announced that DPRK's Korean People's Army (KPA) have started an major operation to completely sever and destroy all railways and road connections to South Korea

➡️ Alongside it, the KPA started to construct massive robust defensive zones and structures along relevant areas of interest near the Demilitarized zone

🇰🇵❌🇰🇷❗️ — 🇰🇵 Korean Central News Agency:

Report of KPA General Staff
➡️ The hostile forces are getting ever more reckless in their confrontational hysteria, openly revealing their scheme to use armed forces in violation of the sovereignty of the DPRK.

➡️ This pushes the grave security situation of the Korean peninsula to a more unpredictable phase.

➡️ Amid various war exercises for aggression being staged simultaneously in the region of the ROK every day near the southern border of the DPRK, strategic nuclear assets of the U.S. frequent the region and the war maniacs loudly talk about the "end of regime" in the DPRK so often. This proves the gravity of the situation that can never be overlooked.

➡️ The acute military situation prevailing on the Korean peninsula requires the armed forces of the DPRK to take a more resolute and stronger measure in order to more creditably defend the national security.

➡️ Given the critical situation where touch-and-go danger of war is ever-escalating in the area along the southern border of the DPRK, the General Staff of the KPA proclaims that it will take a substantial military step to completely separate the territory of the DPRK, where its sovereignty is exercised, from the territory of the ROK (Republic of Korea).

➡️ To this end, a project will be launched first on October 9 to completely cut off roads and railways connected to the ROK and fortify the relevant areas of our side with strong defence structures.

➡️ For our army to permanently shut off and block the southern border with the ROK, the primary hostile state and invariable principal enemy, in the current situation is a self-defensive measure for inhibiting war and defending the security of the DPRK.

➡️Our army sent a telephone message to the U.S. forces side at 09:45 of September 9, prompted by an intention to prevent any misjudgment and accidental conflict over the fortification project to be launched in the acute southern border area.
