Russian sappers use smart mines to tackle Ukrainian forces at Avdeyevka front line
A crew of the advanced Zemledeliye (lit. Agriculture) remote mine-laying engineering system has laid smart minefields in the Avdeyevka area, the Russian Defense Ministry said in a statement.
Sappers remotely mined a section of terrain in the area for a possible breakthrough by Ukrainian forces, according to the ministry.
The ministry added that a whole array of Ukrainian tanks and armed personnel carriers had already been destroyed by Zemledeliye’s smart mines.
Zemledeliye, which operates as a multiple-launch rocket system, is capable of firing 122mm rockets containing anti-personnel, or anti-tank mines, at a distance of up to 15 kilometers away. A single salvo from Zemledeliye can transform several thousand square meters of land into a deadly minefield.
The mines deployed by Zemledeliye can be pre-programmed to self-destruct after a certain period, thus ensuring that the minefields laid by this weapon would not pose a threat to civilians once the fighting is over.

Sappers remotely mined a section of terrain in the area for a possible breakthrough by Ukrainian forces, according to the ministry.
"Equipped with seismic sensors and electronic chips, the mines [used by Zemledeliye] can detect the type of approaching target and are only triggered by strictly programmed targets, be it military equipment or a passing person," the statement pointed out.
The ministry added that a whole array of Ukrainian tanks and armed personnel carriers had already been destroyed by Zemledeliye’s smart mines.

Venezuela allegedly prevents coup d'etat prepared by US with the help of foreign mercenaries
Venezuelan authorities have claimed to have prevented a terrorist attack to destabilize the situation in the country, which they say the United States was involved in preparing. The ultimate goal of these plans was a coup d'etat, Diosdado Cabello, the minister of the interior, justice and peace, said.
According to the minister, the terrorists planned to commit a number of assassination attempts, including on President Nicolas Maduro and Vice President Delcy Rodriguez.
He also added that the CIA and the Spanish National Intelligence Center were behind these operations:
According to Cabello, the Spanish National Intelligence Center was "going to involve" several "mercenaries of French origin" in the alleged operation, "whose task was to capture" the Simon Bolivar International Airport near Caracas.
Among the detainees, there are reportedly a number of foreigners: three Americans, two Spaniards and one Czech.
The minister claimed that 400 rifles and pistols that entered the country from the United States were seized during the counter-terrorism operation. He further stated that the FBI was aware of the contents of the packages, but they "allowed this [terrorist] operation to continue."

Trump’s would-be assassin called for killing Putin and nuclear war with Russia
Independent American journalist Max Blumenthal reveals that Ryan Routh, the suspect in the latest assassination attempt on Donald Trump, had previously called for the assassination of Russian President Vladimir Putin. He posted screenshots of the Routh’s book “Ukraine’s Unwinnable War" published in 2023.
Sputnik took a closer look at the book extracts published by Blumenthal on X:
🔸 In the chapter 18 (screenshots 2-4), Ryan Routh calls for the assassination of Russian President Putin as it would lead to the collapse of Russia's viability as an independent power. Routh also lamented the lack of “credible attempts” on the life of Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko.
🔸 In the next chapter “Why not nuclear war?” (screenshots 5-6), he literally advocated initiating nuclear conflict between the United States and Russia by striking first. “Nuclear weapons put a quick and decisive end to World War 2, so why are we afraid now? Why do we even have nuclear weapons if we are not prepared to use them? Why have the largest military in the world if you are not prepared to deploy them?” Routh inquired.
🔸 In another passage (screenshot 7), Routh “appears to fantasize about the assassination of Trump as punishment for his unraveling of the Iran deal,” as per Blumenthal. Routh criticized the US sanctions against Iran and blasted Trump for unraveling the Iran nuclear deal.
🔸 Routh also complains about rampant corruption in Ukraine (screenshot 8), speculating whether Zelensky may already have bought a private island for himself. Routh mentions stories about whole shipments of medical supplies and “Army tanks” being stolen.
Blumenthal stresses the corruption "hampered the PR efforts of [Routh's] International Legion comrade in arms in Kiev, 'Malcolm,' who appears to be MSNBC natsec hack and wannabe freedom fighter Malcolm Nance."
