—🇸🇾 The Free Syria Army faction operating in the Tanf area has been placed under the authority of the Desert Security Department within the Ministry of Interior.

📌 Following liberation, the faction was renamed Division 70, though its forces have not yet been fully merged.

📌 The measure is part of broader efforts to bring the group formally into the structure of Syria’s internal security apparatus.

⚡️🇮🇶🇮🇷🇺🇸 Atlantic: Iraq has remained stable amid regional wars but stands on a precarious fault line between the U.S. and Iran. As Tehran faces sanctions, Baghdad has become its last major ally and financial lifeline, allowing sanctioned Iranian entities to channel funds through Iraqi fronts and dollar auctions.

American officials fear Iraq’s growing role in propping up Iran’s economy. U.S. sanctions have recently targeted militia-linked conglomerates such as the Muhandis General Company and several oligarchs accused of diverting billions from state contracts. Corruption, already rampant, now fuels Iran’s proxy influence across politics, energy, and telecommunications.

Behind the boom of reconstruction lies a system where state institutions and Iran-backed militias blur together—granting Tehran indirect control over Iraq’s infrastructure and finances.

As Washington’s “maximum pressure” campaign intensifies, Iraq risks becoming both a sanctions loophole and a battleground for renewed U.S.–Iran confrontation.

🇧🇪🇷🇺⚡- "If Russia attacks the capital of a NATO member state, the alliance will raze Moscow to the ground," - Theo Francken, Defense Minister of Belgium.

⚡🇷🇺 Despite Putin's announcement of the RS-28 Sarmat ICBM imminent entry into operational service, the test site of the missile remains abandonned after the last failed test launch at the Plesetsk Cosmodrome.

Higher resolution satellite imagery from September 10 showed that not only, the site wasn't being repaired, the area wasn't even cleared.

This Sentinel-2 imagery from last week (Oct 22) shows that nothing has changed since then.

The only one missile test out of 5 have been succesful so far, without additional test launches, the Russians are unlikely to rely on the RS-28 for nuclear deterrence. If no test is occuring at the Plesetsk Cosmodrome, there may be another test site, and it hasn't been found yet.
