What is Moscow guided by when it comes to the possibility of using or not using nuclear weapons?
💬 Scott Ritter, a former UN weapons inspector, says there are two ways for Russia to use nukes: "You nuke us [Russia], you all die. And if you threaten Mother Russia, threaten the security of our nation, we’ll use all means at our disposal to protect Mother Russia. But nowhere in there did it say 'We're going to use tactical nuclear weapons against Ukraine to stabilize the battlefield.' So this is an invention of the West solely to create panic in Russia to achieve the Moscow Maidan."

🔎 Onur Sinan Güzaltan, a political scientist and employee at RUDN University in Moscow, believes that at the moment, Ukraine is not capable of winning the conflict with Russia that was provoked by the US.
"Therefore, such steps are being taken as attacks on the Nord Stream, assassination of Daria Dugina, a strike on the Crimean Bridge," he says.
Russia and Turkey have established good ties in the field of energy, so Ukraine and the forces that support it have set their sights on TurkStream, as happened with Nord Stream, the political scientist believes.
Vladimir Putin earlier in the day mentioned that Ukraine had tried to blow up TurkStream, a natural gas pipeline running from Russia to Turkey.

💧 Rain-fueled landslide sweeps through Venezuela town; 22 dead
A landslide fueled by flooding and days of torrential rain swept through a town in central Venezuela, leaving at least 22 people dead as it dragged mud, rocks and trees through neighborhoods. Dozens of people are missing.
Aragua Gov. Karina Carpio said the flood waters “terribly affected” 21 sectors in Las Tejerías, capital of the Santos Michelena municipality, which has some 54,000 inhabitants.

🇺🇳 UN ponders rapid armed force to help end Haiti’s crisis
UN Secretary-General António Guterres submitted a letter to the Security Council proposing the immediate activation of a rapid action force following a plea for help from Haiti as gangs and protesters paralyze the country.
The request comes nearly a month after one of Haiti’s most powerful gangs surrounded a key fuel terminal in the capital of Port-au-Prince, preventing the distribution of some 10 million gallons of diesel and gasoline and more than 800,000 gallons of kerosene stored on site.
Tens of thousands of demonstrators also have blocked streets in Port-au-Prince and other major cities, preventing the flow of traffic as part of an ongoing protest against a spike in the prices of gasoline, diesel and kerosene. Gas stations and schools are closed, while banks and grocery stores are operating on a limited schedule.

🇰🇵 NKorea confirms simulated use of nukes to ‘wipe out’ enemies
North Korea’s recent barrage of missile launches were the simulated use of its tactical battlefield nuclear weapons to “hit and wipe out” potential South Korean and US targets, state media reported Monday, as its leader Kim Jong Un signaled he would conduct more provocative tests.
KCNA said the missile tests were in response to recent naval drills between US and South Korean forces, which involved the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan for the first time in five years.
Viewing the drills as a military threat, North Korea decided to stage “the simulation of an actual war” to check and improve its war deterrence and send a warning to its enemies, KCNA said.
