🛡️ SECURITY UPDATE 🇷🇺🇫🇮 MOSCOW – Russia would take appropriate countermeasures against the potential deployment of nuclear weapons in Finland, a Kremlin spokesman said on Friday. “The fact is that by deploying nuclear weapons on its territory, Finland is beginning to threaten us. And if Finland threatens us, we will take appropriate measures," said Dmitry Peskov. Finland's intention to lift the ban on nuclear weapons deployment would lead to an escalation of tensions on the European continent and increase Finland's vulnerability, he added.

The Finnish Defense Ministry said on Thursday that Finland will seek to amend its Nuclear Energy Act and Criminal Code to lift a blanket ban on the import and domestic handling of nuclear devices. The draft proposal would allow the import of nuclear devices into Finland as well as their transport, supply or possession within the country, in the context of Finland's homeland defense, NATO's collective defense or defense cooperation, the ministry said.

Indonesia Suspends Trump’s “Board of Peace” Talks Amid Middle East Tensions 🇮🇩🇺🇸

Indonesia has announced the suspension of all discussions on the proposed Board of Peace, an initiative launched by US President Donald Trump, as military tensions rise in the Middle East. Indonesian Foreign Minister Sugiono said the decision to suspend participation was taken because of the latest military escalation in the region, which has directly affected the foreign policy priorities of countries involved in the initiative. He explained that international attention has now shifted to the consequences of the conflict with Iran. He added that Indonesia would hold intensive consultations with its partners in the Gulf region, as they are directly affected by the ongoing attacks and rising tensions. Indonesia’s participation has faced strong criticism from domestic political and religious groups, and the Indonesian Ulema Council called for an immediate withdrawal, saying it lacks effectiveness while the military offensiv...

🟡 Breaking: Israel’s Hasbara Directorate Sued by Activists Claiming Millions in Unpaid Work 🇮🇱

Former employees and contractors of Israel’s national public diplomacy directorate, known as Hasbara, are suing for millions of shekels in unpaid work carried out since October 2023, following the Hamas-led attack on 7 October 2023. Two private companies providing studios and funding activism in Europe are demanding two million shekels ($650,000) combined. Former spokesperson Eylon Levy confirmed he is owed money but is not joining the lawsuit.

Dozens of independent activists were hired through private contractors as Hasbara was understaffed. One company provided studios for Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant and claims $160,000 unpaid; another, Intellect, demands $487,000 from the prime minister’s office.

Israel’s foreign and diaspora ministries have also funded large-scale Hasbara efforts, including $49m added to the foreign ministry budget in 2025, with campaigns targeting international audiences and social medi...

🟡 History : 17th Ramadan Marks the Battle of Badr 🌙⚔️

Today, on the 17th of Ramadan, Muslims commemorate the historic Battle of Badr, fought in 624 CE between the small Muslim army of 313 fighters led by Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and the Quraysh of Mecca, numbering around 1,000 fighters.

Despite being heavily outnumbered, the Muslims achieved a decisive victory, which strengthened the faith and morale of the early Muslim community.

This battle is remembered as a pivotal moment demonstrating courage, strategy, and divine support in Islam.

Muslims worldwide honor the day through prayers, reflection on the sacrifices of the Prophet and his companions, and lessons of steadfastness and perseverance in faith.

NEW:

🇮🇳🇷🇺 India who decided to support Israel and the US instead of it’s BRICS partners was buying cheap discounted oil from Russia.

Then US stepped in and ordered India to stop buying Russian oil and buy from others like Venezuela instead.

Modi kneeled and agreed and then began reducing its purchases of Russian oil.

After the war and global oil crisis, America gave India “permission” to buy Russian oil again for 30 days.

India then went back to Russia to buy oil.

Russia replied, we’ll sell oil, but now at higher prices and with no discounts like before.
