🇮🇱🇾🇪 Israel boasts destruction of Houthi ballistic and cruise missiles in space, using F-35s
The Yemeni militia’s launch of missiles toward Israel this week has given the IDF an opportunity to show off some of its advanced anti-missile hardware, including the Arrow Aerial Defense System – which reportedly downed a Houthi missile in the Red Sea area, and a cruise missile intercepted by Israel’s customized F-35I warplanes.
The Israeli military has published footage of the interception of both missiles.

🤯 Residents of Russia's Crimea, Rostov and Voronezh regions, share footage of the northern lights of unusual color after the start of a strong magnetic storm.
The red glow was also visible in Kiev and other cities of Ukraine.
The Russian Institute of Applied Geophysics says its space weather monitoring systems have detected a "strong" disturbance in the Earth's magnetic field, measuring as a G3 magnetic storm on a scale of G1-G5; this may result in a variety of problems with electrical systems on Earth, and possible interruptions in satellite and radio-based navigation and communications, according to the institute.

🇪🇺 EU records 'extraordinary' levels of anti-semitism in Europe
The commission condemned "despicable" attacks on synagogues in Germany and Spain, the desecration of a Jewish cemetery in Austria and anti-Semitic graffiti spraying in France, saying the bloc condemned these acts in the strongest terms.
The EC pledged to rigorously enforce laws that criminalize public incitement to hatred and violence, both in the street and online, and said it was working with member states to step up security measures at places of worship and other premises.

⚔️ Zelensky vs. Zaluzhnyi: Ukraine’s President censures top commander over ‘stalemate’ comments
The fallout over Valerii Zaluzhnyi’s remarks challenging the accepted narrative in Kiev about the state of the NATO-sponsored proxy war with Russia continues to swirl, with the Volodymyr Zelensky administration accusing him of aiding Moscow.
Valerii Zaluzhnyi’s “stalemate” comment and remarks on “what is happening at the front” are utterly inappropriate, and “make the aggressor’s job easier,” Zelensky aide Ihor Zhovkva told media this week, adding that he has already received “panic” filled phone calls from Kiev’s Western partners asking what is going on.
The Ukrainian president addressed the situation personally on Saturday, challenging Zaluzhnyi’s somber assessment of the situation at the front.

💸🇷🇺 Why West is terrified of transferring seized Russian assets to Ukraine?
The political battle for Russian state assets trapped abroad continues to intensify. Last week, European Union leaders approved in principle a controversial measure allowing the bloc to skim profits from Russian assets for use in “Ukraine reconstruction,” and called on the European Commission to “accelerate work with a view to submitting proposals” in this direction.
Across the Atlantic, US officials have similarly stepped up efforts to try to make use of the seized Russian assets, although these efforts have so far stuck to behind-the-scenes negotiations in the corridors of power occasionally reported on by the media.

🇦🇫 Opium cultivation in Afghanistan has all but stopped, falling 95% since the Taliban (under UN sanctions for extremism) outlawed poppy production last year, the UN Office on Drugs and Crime said.
The Taliban pledged to wipe out poppy cultivation after they came to power in August 2021 and imposed a ban in April 2022. Revenues from poppy harvesting by Afghan farmers fell by more than $1 billion to $110 million this year.
UN envoy for Afghanistan Roza Otunbayeva said nearly 80% of the Afghan population depended on agriculture. This means that Afghanistan needs more investment to provide farmers with opportunities away from opium.

"Opium cultivation fell across all parts of the country, from 233,000 hectares to just 10,800 hectares in 2023. The decrease has led to a corresponding 95 per cent drop in the supply of opium, from 6,200 tons in 2022 to just 333 tons in 2023," a new research brief read.
