In late autumn 1942, following the failure of the summer blitzkrieg of 1942 and brutal street-to-street fighting for every quarter of the city, the German command launched one last attempt to turn the tide. The main assault was carried out by units of General Paulus’s 6th Army, supported by the 14th Tank Corps. Their goal was to break through to the Volga in the northern part of the city, near the Tractor and Barricade plants, where the 62nd Army under General Vasily Chuikov held its ground.
The last act of German initiative and its final attempt to seize the city failed. The German forces exhausted their reserves and could not reach the Volga. Just ten days later, on 19 November, the Soviet counter-offensive Operation Uranus began, encircling the 6th Army in the Stalingrad pocket.
⚔️ After November 11, 1942, the Wehrmacht’s offensive spirit was spent – from then on, it could only fight defensively. The turning point of the entire Second World War on the Eastern Front was was drawing near...

CSS Shenandoah Surrenders to British government in Liverpool England marking the end to the War to Prevent Southern Independence.
The Official Records of the Union and Confederate Navies in the War of Rebellion November 5 – Arrived in the Mersey, off Liverpool, and on Monday, the 6th, surrendered the Shenandoah to the British nation, by letter to Lord John Russell, premier of Great Britain. (signed) JAMES I WADDELL.[13]
THE CONFEDERATE CRUISER SHENANDOAH IN THE MERSEY. Considerable excitement was caused on 'Change yesterday morning by circulation of the report that the Confederate cruiser Shenandoah, of whose exploits amongst the American whalers in the North Pacific so much has been heard, was passed about 8 o'clock by the steamer Douglas at anchor at the bar, of Victoria Channel, apparently waiting for high water. By many the report was discredited, it being thought that those on board the Douglas were in error, and had mistaken some other craft for the celebrated ex-Confederate cruiser. At half past ten, however, all doubts on the point were set at rest, with the Shenandoah steaming up the Victoria Channel with the Palmetto flag flying from her masthead.[9] from The Virginia Flaggers

Translation:
“A creature seen in Rome on the Ripa Maiore, on the third day of November in the year of salvation 1523, of the size of a five-year-old child, exactly in the form as depicted here.
GERMAN: A strange creature, given in 1523.
The marine monster which we paint here, wherever it exists, is called either a sea Pan or a sea Satyr, or Ichthyocentaurus, or Damon marinus.
I received the image from a certain painter: he said he had seen the skeleton of such a monster in Antwerp. Another person reported a similar monster, dry, brought from Norway to Lower Germany, male and female, which they say can confirm the likeness of similar monsters, shown recently to us. Since this is human in appearance above the waist and horned, we will call it a sea Pan or a sea Satyr.
A certain fish of the Pan type is called a cetacean, in which a stone can be found that, when heated by the sun, is useful for philtres; Aesop records this from Mithridates, and Suidas in the lexicon.
In the sea around the island of Taprobane, some whales are said to resemble Satyrs in appearance and likeness, according to Aelianus.
Under Pope Eugene IV, in the city of Sibenico in Illyricum, a marine man was captured who drew a child to the sea. He was wounded by currents and stones, and brought ashore. His figure was almost human, except that his skin resembled an eel’s, and he had two small horns on his head. His hands showed only two fingers each. His feet seemed to split into two tails, which extended like wings to his arms, as in a bat.
Baptista Fulgosius describes more in our History of Aquatic Creatures, particularly regarding the Triton.
GERMAN: F. Rein Seertcifel”

❗️🇷🇺👉🇵🇰🏴☠️ Pakistani intelligence tried to steal data on the S-400.
🔺In Saint Petersburg, a Russian citizen was detained for participating in an attempt to smuggle secret documents related to Russian military helicopters and air defense systems, The Economic Times reports citing sources.
Following this, Russian authorities uncovered a spy network led by Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), which tried to smuggle advanced air defense technologies out of Russia, the article says.
The operation was a continuation of previous ISI attempts to secretly access Russian military technologies, including the S-400 systems used by the 🇮🇳 Indian Air Force.
The detainee tried to smuggle documents on the development of military helicopter technology and information about the Mi-8AMTSh-V "Terminator" and Mi-8AMTSh-VA military transport helicopters.

🚀 The first color footage of a FUSION REACTOR in action!
Tokamak Energy has just released incredible high-speed video — shot at 16,000 frames per second — showing the birth of plasma inside their fusion reactor.
In the clip, you can see a mesmerizing bright pink glow at the plasma’s edge — that’s light emitted as the superheated gas interacts with the reactor walls. The core itself remains invisible, simply because it’s millions of degrees hot — far beyond what any camera can capture.
This is what the future of clean, limitless energy looks like — contained in a magnetic field.
🎥 Full video here: watch the fusion magic

TIL about Vince Coleman, who died in the 1917 Halifax Explosion when he stayed at his post and telegraphed an incoming train to stop out of town. His warning: "Hold up the train. Ammunition ship afire in harbour making for Pier 6 and will explode. Guess this will be my last message. Good-bye, boys."

🇺🇸👉🇷🇺🇺🇦🏴☠️ Russia plans to capture Ukraine in three stages, — Foreign Affairs
1️⃣ Putin allegedly aims to hold the new regions and occupy Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, and Odesa, cutting Ukraine off from the Black Sea.
2️⃣ The second stage is economic and political pressure with the threat of a new invasion.
3️⃣ In the third stage, Ukraine is supposed to enter Russia's orbit, like Belarus.
Good plan❗️😁
