🇧🇴 #BREAKING Dismissed Bolivian Army Commander, General Juan José Zúñiga has reportedly stormed the Presidential Palace amid reports of a military/police coup.
Zuniga’s reported entry into the palace comes after several social media and news outlets reported “irregular mobilizations” of army units in the administrative capital of La Paz. Zuniga reportedly lost his position due to allegedly threatening the former president of #Bolivia, Evo Morales, on June 25th.
Morales said that snipers from a special forces unit took positions surrounding Plaza Murillo before the coup began. Via theatlasnews.co @AtlasNewsTelegram
The General Zúñiga, after the military entered Murillo Square, said, "We respond to the clamor of the people. The people say: 'enough of the looting', 'enough of the outrage to our country.' He claimed a new government would be formed.
Luis Acre, the Bolivian president, has called for mass protests against the military coup. The Secretary General of the Organization of American States has condemned the Bolivian coup additionally. Via All Source News & ConflictsW on twitter + videos.

🇰🇪 #Kenya’s Ruto Pulls Finance Bill After Protests: https://theatlasnews.co/latest/2024/06/26/kenyas-ruto-pulls-finance-bill-after-protests/
Protests over the signing of Kenya’s Finance Bill, which sought to raise a variety of taxes in order to increase funds to pay off interest on debt repayments, have left at least 23 dead this week and injured scores more, prompting President Ruto to pull the bill.
A statement released by President Ruto on June 26th outlined the advances the country has made under his presidency in decelerating inflation and lowering prices of essential commodities such as unga (maize meal), fertilizer, and petrol. He then noted that “Following the passage of the [finance] Bill, the country witnessed widespread expression of dissatisfaction with the bill as passed regrettably resulting in the loss of life, destruction of property and desecration of constitutional institutions. I send condolences to the families of those who lost their loved ones in this unfortunate manner. Consequently, having reflected on the continuing conversation around the content of the finance bill of 2024, I will decline to assent to the Bill.”
Continuing, “Accordingly, as I committed on Sunday, I propose an engagement with young people of our nation to listen to their issues and agree with them on their priority areas of concern. I also propose that within the next 14 days, a multi-sectoral, multi-stakeholder engagement be held with a view to charting the way forward on matters relating to the content of the bill as well as auxiliary issues raised in recent days on the need for austerity measures and strengthening our fight against corruption.”
Despite Ruto’s concessions, anti-administration hashtags continued to trend with signs pointing towards a continuation of protests. theatlasnews.co @AtlasNewsTelegram

🇷🇺 🇰🇵 🇰🇷 🇺🇦 Russian Officials Warn #SouthKorea About Providing Military Equipment to #Ukraine: https://theatlasnews.co/latest/2024/06/27/russian-officials-warn-south-korea-about-providing-military-equipment-to-ukraine/
On June 26th, two Russian officials called on South Korea not to provide weapon systems to Ukraine because it would have consequences for relations between the two countries and increase tensions on the Korean Peninsula. The comments come after South Korea’s National Security Adviser, Chang Ho-jin, said that the provision of any kind of military equipment would be based on several factors. The most significant of these factors is #Russia’s stance on its relations with #NorthKorea and whether it provides Precision Guided Munitions (PGMs) to the #DPRK.
South Korea currently supplies Ukraine with nonlethal equipment, such as first-aid kits, medicines, portable mine detectors, and protective suits. However, the country has a policy that prohibits it from providing lethal aid or weapons to countries at war. With South Korea supplying arms to them, Ukraine could receive a range of equipment or weapons stock, most vital to their war effort now would likely be MLRS vehicles, man-portable launchers, air defense systems, and 155mm shell supply. @AtlasNewsTelegram

🇺🇸 🇱🇧 USS Wasp Moving to Evacuate U.S. Citizens from #Lebanon:
Defense officials have told NBC that U.S. forces are moving closer to the Eastern Mediterranean to facilitate the evacuation of #UnitedStates persons from Lebanon if Israel initiated a full scale invasion. @AtlasNewsTelegram
According to those officials, the USS Wasp, a multipurpose amphibious assault ship will lead the Noncombatant evacuation operations (NEO). The 26th Marine Expeditionary Group has been preparing for a deployment to facilitate a NEO in the Middle East for the past few months.
In 2022, the U.S. State Department estimated that 80,000 USPERS resided in Lebanon and a large number of those would need to be evacuated if the country disintegrated into full-scale warfare, not to mention the U.S. Embassy in Beirut.
USS Wasp (LHD-1) is a United States Navy-multipurpose amphibious assault ship, and the lead ship of her class. In addition to the crew of more than 1,000, the vessel can fit an additional 1,800 onboard. Via theatlasnews.co

🇺🇸 🇮🇱 🇱🇧 U.S. to Release Weapons to #Israel:
The #UnitedStates is set to partially release a weapons shipment to Israel that was suspended back in April over #IDF military operations in Rafah, Palestine, according to Axios.
An estimated 1,700x MK-82 500lb bombs are expected to be delivered to Israel in the coming weeks, while a shipment of 1,800x MK-84 2,000lb bombs remains under review. @AtlasNewsTelegram
The development comes as tensions continue to soar with #Hezbollah, as cross border strikes and clashes continue to escalate.
Earlier this month, the IDF announced that it had finalized operational plans for an offensive over the border if an all out war were to break out with Hezbollah, who warned of large-scale missile and drone strikes across northern Israel if the IDF invaded into southern #Lebanon.
