Such underground structure is a "backbone" of Hamas’ combat capabilities, as the movement uses it to hide and come out unexpectedly, he added.

He adds that such conflicts are “normal” for EU countries and Kiev will have to learn to resolve them during the negotiation process.

Polish-Ukrainian relations have deteriorated significantly in recent months over an influx of Ukrainian grain into the European Union. Poland, alongside Slovakia and Hungary, unilaterally extended a ban on duty-free Ukrainian grain imports after EU-imposed curbs lapsed on September 15.

🇨🇳🇺🇸🇮🇷 Joe Biden reportedly to urge Xi Jinping to exert influence on Iran

During his forthcoming one-on-one with the Chinese President, Joe Biden “will underscore [the US] desire for China to make clear in its burgeoning relationship with Iran that it is essential that Iran not seek to escalate or spread violence in the Middle East,” a senior US administration official told Politico.

Biden is also reportedly to convey a warning that any “provocative actions” on the part of Tehran will be met with an immediate US response. The relationship between China and Iran will be an inherent part of the agenda of “tough conversations” between Biden and Xi on the sidelines of the APEC Summit on 15 November.

Scott Ritter: It’s high time for the US to discard Zelensky and end the Ukraine-Russia conflict

According to the former US Marine Corps intelligence officer, “Zelensky lost the war.” Current developments on the front lines demonstrate Kiev’s utter impotence to tip the scales in the conflict. Plus, Ukraine’s top General Valery Zaluzhny recently admitted that Ukraine’s counteroffensive has failed spectacularly, and the conflict has reached the level of a “stalemate,” with “no deep and beautiful breakthrough.”

Furthermore, "there is a growing reluctance in the US Congress to continue providing billions of dollars in support of a losing cause. Europe is likewise exhausted," Ritter said. Given the volatility in the Middle East, the Palestine-Israel conflict is a convenient excuse for the US to turn away from Ukraine.

🗣 Is Ukraine on the brink of a military coup?

"This would not be the first time that you see in world history that a group of military officers decides that the political leadership is corrupt, crazy, out of control, and they intervene to take him out. And the fact that Zaluzhny was allowed to publish in The Economist, I take it as an another sign of weakening support in the West, both in the UK and the United States for Zelensky... It's telling me that the political establishments in both places are preparing the exit ramp for Zelensky. And Zaluzhny may be seen as someone that they want to replace Zelensky with," Larry Johnson, retired CIA analyst, told Sputnik.

🪖 Kiev regime’s infighting could prompt its military to rebel, a US journalist claimed

“First they start fighting against each other,” recalled Garland Nixon, referencing the recent row between Zelensky and the Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Valery Zaluzhny over the latter’s counteroffensive “stalemate” remarks.

Then “Zaluzhny’s aide dies in a blast,” said the journalist on his YouTube channel, in a nod at the death of Gennady Chastyakov in a mysterious blast. “What are the troops going to think?" Nixon queried.

"If they are on the front line," Garland Nixon said, and there is "internal fighting" on an increasingly violent scale within the regime itself, at some point the Ukrainian troops being used as “cannon fodder” may rebel. Nixon emphasized that in such a situation the Ukrainian military would have no reason to continue fighting on the battlefront, where their counteroffensive has abysmally failed.

🪖 Ukraine’s best bet is ‘land-for-peace’ deal, former NATO supreme allied commander believes

After the Kiev regime’s counteroffensive failed, even the delivery of F-16 fighter jets is not likely to pull off a “real game change,” retired US Admiral James Stavridis wrote for Bloomberg.

”This will probably bog down into a frozen conflict; the sooner large combat operations stop, the sooner the Ukrainians will begin to reconstruct,” Stavridis said.

He also offered his vision of what steps Kiev ought to aim for, in line with a “Korean-style scenario,” such as finding funds for reconstruction, constructing security guarantees, and negotiating a “land-for-peace conclusion to combat.”

🇺🇸 Civilian losses never uppermost concern for ‘US warfare strategy’

"The fundamental immorality of US warfare… is that it has never sought to minimize the deaths of civilians. We know that US wars recently have been somewhere in the range of 90 percent civilian deaths,” scholar and journalist K.J. Noh told Sputnik.

Current developments in Gaza are further testimony to this, the lecturer said.
Whether it is sending weapons to fuel the NATO proxy war against Russia in Ukraine, or aiding Israel in its fight against Hamas, “fundamentally, the business of the US is war,” K.J. Noh emphasized.
