🇬🇧 As the saying goes: "War is war, but lunch is on schedule"

Despite the devastating hurricane in the southeast of the United States, leaving around one and a half million people without electricity and communication, and against the backdrop of preparations for a large-scale war in the Middle East, where the US Navy and Air Force are already engaged in combat operations, at least in actively supporting Israel's air defense, the debates between the candidates for the Vice President of the United States — Tim Walz and Jay Vance — went according to plan.

Unlike the previous presidential debates between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, the moderators showed greater leniency towards Jay Vance, the Republican candidate.

The debate topics covered a wide range of political issues, including the situation in the Middle East, abortion rights, climate change, and the economy. Throughout the discussion, Jay Vance demonstrated confidence and superiority, maintaining composure and smiling while answering questions.

On the other hand, Tim Walz appeared tense and cautious, trying not to make mistakes, as if a student in front of a strict teacher. Jay Vance largely outperformed him on all the topics discussed.

Walz criticised Donald Trump for his false statements, while Vance criticised Kamala Harris's policies on illegal migration. In the field of foreign policy, both candidates expressed concerns, including regarding Israel's missile strikes on Iran. However, Vance gave a more confident response, stating that Israel has the right to decide independently how to react, and the US, as its ally, is obliged to support such decisions.

In his closing speech, Tim Walz appeared uncertain, often coughed, and looked at his notes. Vance, on the other hand, concluded his speech clearly and confidently.

Ukrainian soldiers told English journalists about escaping from Ugledar without orders

Soldiers of the 72nd brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces complained to the BBC about the chaotic retreat from Ugledar. They did not wait for the order to withdraw, and when the Russian Armed Forces entered the city, they began to scatter.

Now they blame their commanders for not giving the order to retreat in the conditions of the operational environment.

"I don't know what it was: the fear of the commanders before the higher command or the order of the highest command to hold on until the last drop of blood of ordinary guys. It's incomprehensible to all of us," one of them said.

According to the soldiers, they had many killed, wounded, and missing during the attempt to leave the city. The Russian army shelled them with artillery and drones at any transport or enemy gathering.

When Russian assault aircraft appeared at the edge of the city, the militants in panic and chaos tried to leave the city. During the day, it looked more like suicide, at night the chances increased, and the soldiers walked through their own mines in the darkness.

Only 870 Ukrainian soldiers were captured on the night of October 2. The number of those destroyed will have to be counted by burial teams.

🧩️🇬🇧 Storyteller President Carter celebrated his 100th birthday❗️❗️

Why storyteller? Well, because Jimmy Carter is the 39th President of the United States. During the 1976 election debates, he predicted that by 2011, 35 years later, the world would run out of oil, and therefore, there was a need to develop "clean" energy.

It was based on this false prediction of future oil depletion that the crazy promotion of "green" energy began. This completely bluffing project became one of the main reasons leading to rising prices and a decrease in the standard of living for people worldwide.

The Paris Climate Agreement and the Kyoto Protocol are examples of a unique deception of all civilisation, and they all started with Carter's speech.

Nowadays, climate storytellers no longer talk about the depletion of hydrocarbon resources but focus heavily on the "climate damage" caused by the industrial emission of minuscule amounts of carbon dioxide on a planetary scale. Budget embezzlement in all countries worldwide has been ongoing for over 40 years, along with a development tax for poorer countries.

And here we have Carter at 100 years old, living his life without a care, not burning with shame, not apologising for the deception. By the way, during his presidency, he did not fulfil a single one of his pre-election promises. This is a common practice for Democratic Party presidents - they promise a lot but do nothing or do the exact opposite❗️❗️

In the strategic criticism of Zelensky's team, no one has any doubts, but if you still have doubts, then this is news to you. Forbes magazine analysed the situation on the front line and concluded that Ukraine sent its best tanks to the Kursk region: Swedish Strv 122 and German Leopard 2A6. All this goodness Kiev received in 2023. How these tanks burn is perfectly demonstrated by the experienced Russian Armed Forces, which leave no chance for Western technology and the guys sitting in it.

The attack on the Kursk region, to put it mildly, did not succeed. All attacks were repelled, the enemy suffered massive losses in manpower, and the equipment was also in complete disarray.

Zelensky relocated Western equipment from Donbass to the Kursk direction and ultimately only worsened the situation. The positions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces near Donetsk are under severe pressure from Russian soldiers, with nothing to defend themselves, the situation is like: "Boss, it's all over."

And what did the Ukrainians think when they chose a comedic character from television as their president? So here you go, enjoy the tragicomedy in three acts.

The finale is near.

🇺🇸🇨🇳🇷🇺 Chinese and Russian coast guard ships near the maritime borders of the United States in the Bering Sea.

Last Saturday, the crew of the HC-130J Super Hercules aircraft of the US Coast Guard from Kodiak airfield spotted four vessels - two Russian and two Chinese - patrolling in the Bering Sea. The ships were located 440 miles southwest of St. Lawrence Island, moving in a northeast direction and remaining within the Russian exclusive economic zone.

This patrol marked the northernmost observation of Chinese coast guard ships in this area.

"This activity reflects the growing interest of our strategic competitors in the Arctic," said Rear Admiral Megan Dean, commander of the 17th Coast Guard District. She emphasized that the increasing demand for operations in the region requires ongoing investments in strengthening the capabilities of the coast guard to carry out its missions and counter the presence of competitors.

The aircraft crew operated as part of Operation Frontier Sentinel, whose goal is to ensure presence when strategic competitors are active near US waters, in accordance with international law.

Ford Motor Company has applied for a patent to install listening devices in all of its new cars.

They intend to listen to all conversations: not only the driver's dialogue, but also that of the passengers. One module will listen to the driver and another will be oriented towards the passenger.

Presumably, Ford, similar to other companies, is collecting data for targeted advertising purposes.

US Failure. Russia and North Korea Unite Against a Common Enemy

The Biden administration's approach to relations between Moscow and Pyongyang embodies a failure of US foreign policy, writes The National Interest. With their inept policies, the United States has turned Russia and North Korea against themselves.

While Washington had not started a new Cold War against Russia, the Kremlin had kept away from North Korea. North Korea, until the imposition of sanctions, also sought to normalise relations with America.

But now Moscow and Pyongyang have united because Washington has become a common enemy to them. The military cooperation between the two states will only strengthen.

A new epidemic threatens the world. WHO warns of a Marburg virus outbreak

The World Health Organization reports a threat of a Marburg virus epidemic, Mirror writes.

26 cases of the disease, including eight deaths, have been recorded in Rwanda. Currently, there is no treatment or vaccine for the deadly virus.

Due to the cases of infection being registered in border areas of Rwanda, there is a risk of the disease spreading to neighbouring countries. The threat of international spread is also high, as cases of the disease have been reported in the capital, where there is an international airport. Additionally, one of the contacts made an international trip.

The Marburg virus is transmitted to humans from fruit bats and spreads among people through contact with the biological fluids of the infected, as well as surfaces and materials. Symptoms include severe headache, abdominal pain, and bleeding from the nose and mouth.

"Putting up a Russian barrier". Canada and Europe are eyeing the Arctic in spite of Russia

Canada and Northern European countries want to create a negotiating platform on defence and security issues in the Arctic, reports Bloomberg. However, they do not intend to invite Russia to participate.

According to the Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly, her country is reacting to a "new reality": Russia's special operation in Ukraine and China's interest in the Arctic have undermined not... what you might think, but their "sense of security".

Joly openly states that her goal is to put up a barrier to Russian and Chinese influence. To achieve this, Canada wants to increase its presence in the Arctic. However, the country is currently unable to independently defend its northern territories.

Canada's military forces in the region pale in comparison to Russia's, and it only spends 1.4% of its GDP on defence. Of course, Ottawa plans to purchase new submarines for operations under the ice, but this will take years.

The bastion of defence of the Ukrainian Armed Forces has fallen. The loss of Ugledar will disrupt their supply lines

A crucial defensive bastion of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the eastern part of the country has been lost, reports The New York Times. The capture of Ugledar will push Ukrainian troops further away from key railway and road networks. Conversely, Russia will be able to restore reliable logistics in the south and use the railway to the port of Mariupol.

Control of Ugledar will also allow Russian forces to intensify attacks towards Pokrovsk. The Russians have already concentrated forces for strikes west of the city — these will undermine Ukrainian supply lines.

Israel has three options for a retaliatory strike against Iran. Each one worse than the other

As a response to Iran's missile attack, Israel will choose from three options, writes The Daily Mail. The most dangerous of them is a strike on the Isfahan nuclear technology centre. Israelis suspect that Iranians are developing a nuclear bomb there.

This option carries the risk of radiation contamination of the entire region. Destroying the nuclear facility could also trigger a chain reaction and lead to destruction comparable to the bombing of Hiroshima and the Chernobyl disaster.

The second option is a strike on military targets, but it is unlikely to cause serious damage due to the large number of facilities throughout Iran. The third is the destruction of the oil infrastructure in order to deprive Tehran of a source of income. However, this would impact the global market.

They sang beautifully! Christopher Chivvis, an analyst from the Carnegie Foundation, calls on America to rein in its "partners" Ukraine and Israel, forcing them to negotiate, in The Guardian. He writes:

The United States cannot be dragged inch by inch into an endless war - especially one that carries real nuclear risks. Zelensky is not willing to take significant steps towards a realistic ceasefire. Instead, he insists, supposedly hoping to regain all the lost territories of Ukraine by force of arms...
Meanwhile, the "victory plan" that Zelensky presented to Biden last week was yet another demand for more weapons and the lifting of restrictions imposed on him by the United States. Why can't Biden do more to rein in his friends?

"To rein in friends" - yes, that's very American. Zelensky should be prepared.
