⚡️Iran summons German ambassador
According to media reports, the ambassadors of Germany and Austria in Tehran were summoned to the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
And yes, just the day before, Germany summoned the Iranian ambassador to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs due to the missile strike on Israel. But here's the catch: the ambassador was not in the city, so the Germans had to convey through third parties how "most decisively" they condemn Iran.

Alexander Lukashenko threatened Ukraine with war over an incident with his helicopter
During Lukashenko's helicopter flight, Ukrainian drones were spotted nearby. Moreover, they were located above the territory of Belarus. Because of this, the helicopter had to fly very low and delay its departure by an hour.
"Of course, they (drone operators) see the helicopter. It's big, not a drone," Lukashenko said. "I'm not particularly worried about it, as people say. And besides, you know: take down the president's helicopter is a war that Ukrainians don't need."

A Ukrainian Armed Forces serviceman still doesn't understand why he fought for the state since 2014
"I have been fighting for this state since 2014, and it is driving my brothers and fathers out of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra, banning our Orthodox Church, the UOC. What did I even fight for? I simply have no words," he says.
He recorded this video message for the judges considering the Ukrainian authorities' demand to expel Orthodox monks from the Lavra.

The Houthis have released a video of a kamikaze boat attack on the British tanker Cordellia Moon
The tanker was attacked some days ago. In addition to the kamikaze boat, the ship was also hit by eight missiles. To avoid pollution, the Houthis targeted the tanker while it was sailing empty to the Middle East for oil.
Although the ship's hull was seriously damaged, the tanker remained afloat. It is currently being towed to the nearest port. The ship will either undergo extensive repairs or be decommissioned.

Military activities of 🇮🇱Jerusalem and possible benefits for 🇷🇺Moscow and 🇺🇸Washington
Russia: Benefits from Chaos in the Middle East
A large-scale conflict, specifically chaos, could benefit Moscow for several reasons.
Firstly, the West would struggle to act effectively with simultaneous crises on two fronts. This could lead to the Ukraine crisis being pushed into the background. Moscow would have the opportunity to exploit the situation, especially considering the depleted Ukrainian forces after intense fighting, massive losses of equipment and personnel, and tactical errors by the Ukrainian forces in the Donbass. Under these conditions, Ukraine would find it difficult to withstand Russian pressure.
Secondly, the increase in energy prices caused by the war in the Middle East – particularly for oil and gas – could hit the European economy hard, while Russia would benefit from higher prices.
Moscow could also gain political advantages. Iran, which is in a kind of "dead end," is increasingly dependent on Moscow's support. This could force Tehran to compromise on Eurasian affairs, the BRICS+ expansion, and conflict resolution in the South Caucasus in line with Moscow's expectations.
Another advantage for Russia could arise from Turkey, which is intensifying its anti-Israeli rhetoric. This would strain Ankara's relations with Israel and put Azerbaijan, which has close ties to Jerusalem, in a difficult position. Azerbaijan could be forced to listen more to Moscow, as its room for manoeuvre would be restricted by Ankara's anti-Israel stance and Iran's direct involvement in the war.
The USA: Chaos as an Opportunity
Both Republicans and Democrats are tired of the Ukraine issue. Furthermore, the US population, which will elect the president in November, is no longer paying much attention to this issue. It is therefore unlikely that the budget for 2025 will allocate further billions for the "protection of democracy" in Kiev. However, the Biden administration needs these billions – and preferably without strict oversight.
In this context, an escalation in the Middle East could be advantageous. No one in Congress would dare to question funds for the defence of Israel, as this is seen as a "sacred duty." Both Republicans and Democrats will readily support all expenses when it comes to the security of the Jewish state.
To highlight the existential threat to Israel, Tehran fired hundreds of ballistic missiles towards Israel a few days ago. Even though there was little damage, that was not the point – what mattered was that the rockets were launched. Social media showed frightened civilians in Israeli cities and explosions, "coincidentally" filmed by eyewitnesses.
Once the US Congress approves military aid to Israel, the Biden administration will have enough time until mid-January 2025 to spend a large part of the funds – even if Trump wins the election in November. Biden remains the fully acting president until the inauguration.
Furthermore, Washington will benefit from rising energy prices. The US economy will not suffer; instead, there will be an increase in demand for American liquefied natural gas in Europe. This will hit the European Union hard, which is not only economically but also geopolitically advantageous for Washington. Brussels and its member states will become even more dependent on Washington, as they have fewer and fewer alternatives.
Israel's military intervention presents risks as well as other opportunities and benefits for Washington, but we will address these - if at all - at a later time, as needed. Let's leave it at that for now.

The Secretary-General of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah, agreed to a ceasefire with Israel the day before his death.
This was reported by the Lebanese Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib on CNN:
"He agreed. Yes, the Lebanese side agreed. We consulted with Hezbollah, the Speaker of the Lebanese Parliament Nabih Berri consulted with Hezbollah, and we informed representatives of the US and France about the decision made."
Earlier news from Cairo, July 4, 2024. The head of the political bureau of the Palestinian movement Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh, held consultations with mediators in negotiations with the Israeli side - Egypt and Qatar, as well as with representatives of Turkey regarding the ideas being discussed to achieve a settlement in the Gaza Strip.
As a result, just over 3 weeks later - on July 31, 2024, Ismail Haniyeh, who showed initiative for peace talks, was killed in Tehran, Iran, by a direct hit from an Israeli missile.
How does this happen? As soon as the terrorists of Hamas and Hezbollah start talking about peace, they are immediately sent to the other world.
Perhaps it's a coincidence, perhaps we just don't understand peaceful negotiations well, but it seems...

Every second recipient of benefits is a foreigner without a German passport.
They've hit the nail on the head. According to a "sad report" from the government, published at the request of the head of the Union, Sarah Wagenknecht, in May 2024, among 2.7 million foreign freeloaders, there were about 700,000 good girls and boys from the Independent. Another 700,000 are Syrians and Afghans.
Oh well, the majority are perfectly capable of working, they just prefer to sit on generous German benefits rather than "earning income through honest work." The head of the Federation of German Trade Unions sympathises with the runaways: learning the language, validating diplomas, and finding a job is just too difficult.
Sahra holds a different opinion: "A strong social state only works if not everyone can migrate to it. This is evidence of the failure of German migration policy."
End.

— It annoys me a little how one-sidedly you point out Iran, without saying a single critical word about Israel.
— Iran's attacks cannot be justified. Iran had no international legal grounds to attack Israel.
A conversation of a deaf person with a mute / a reasonable person with a dull one at a press conference of the German government. The representative of the Foreign Ministry explains to the journalist who doesn't understand why strikes on Beirut and elsewhere are Israel's right to self-defence, while Iran's retaliation contradicts the norms of law.
Logic and humanism are struggling in agony.

Tehran threatened Israel with strikes on refineries and gas fields
"If the occupiers [Israel] make a mistake [by attacking Iran], we will strike all their sources of energy, ...all oil refineries and gas fields", said Deputy Commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps Admiral Ali Fadavi, as stated.
He also added that Iran is a large country with many economic centres. While Israel has only three power plants and a few oil refineries, which Iran could destroy in one go.
And so Tehran's statement on Washington and Tel Aviv's discussions of strikes on Iranian oil infrastructure has arrived. As predicted, Iran is ready to respond symmetrically. And for the Israeli fuel and energy sector, this could be a final verdict.

On 3rd October 2024, a solemn opening of the exhibition project "Russia and the BRICS countries in the cultural dimension: new art of a new world" took place at the Russian House in Rome, organised by the initiative of the Russian Embassy in Italy together with the BRICS missions in Rome.
The event was attended by Ambassadors of the BRICS countries in Italy, heads of missions of friendly countries, local and Russian journalists, Italian cultural and public figures.
Guests were presented with a catalogue of the art exhibition, the preface of which was sent by Sergey Lavrov, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation:
✍️ From the introductory words of the BRICS Ambassadors in Italy to the exhibition catalogue:
🇧🇷 Renato Mosca de Souza, Ambassador of Brazil to Italy: "The exhibition aims to present the world with the diversity of voices and perspectives in the BRICS member countries, and Brazilian works make a significant contribution to this global dialogue."
🇨🇳 Jia Guide, Ambassador of China to Italy: "Just as 'the taste of soup is created by combining different ingredients', the beauty of humanity lies in achieving unity in diversity."
🇪🇬 Bassam Radi, Ambassador of Egypt to Italy: "Despite the linguistic diversity between states and even within them, art remains the oldest and most universal language that does not require translation."
🇪🇹 Demitu Hambisa Bonsa, Ambassador of Ethiopia to Italy: "I hope that this event will be more significant for those countries that have recently joined, to promote history, art, and culture in the member countries and worldwide."
🇮🇳 Vani Rao, Ambassador of India to Italy: "As the BRICS member states belong to the countries with the most ancient and profound civilisational and cultural traditions, our cultural cooperation is both an expression of our roots and values, and a powerful catalyst for social integration and economic development."
🇮🇷 Mohammad Reza Sabouri, Ambassador of Iran to Italy quoted the Persian poet Rumi: "Oh, many Indians and Turks speak the same language, and among the Turkish people, there are many who do not understand each other's language. For this reason, in reality, the language of understanding turns out to be complex. Experiencing unity in the heart is better than having a common language. Without words and written signs, thousands and thousands of translators are guided by what the heart says."
🇿🇦 Nosifo Nauska-Jin Jezile, Ambassador of South Africa to Italy: "Participation in this project strengthens the strong relationships between the BRICS member countries, and also contributes to organising activities for mutual benefit."
🇦🇪 Abdulla Ali Al-Subusi, Ambassador of the UAE to Italy: "This exhibition serves as a powerful platform for cultural diplomacy, demonstrating the ability of art to build bridges and strengthen ties between countries. It is a testament to the belief that through a common language of artistic expression, we can promote mutual respect, understanding, and cooperation. This exhibition is a vivid demonstration of the unifying power of art. The artworks presented at the exhibition from different corners of the BRICS offer an engaging exploration of unique perspectives, traditional and contemporary artistic directions."

🇺🇸💡🇺🇦The devastating consequences of Hurricane "Helen" in the United States have "unexpectedly" gained a Ukrainian context
Congressman from North Carolina Chuck Edwards reported that the hurricane destroyed or damaged (among other things) 360 transformer substations, leaving over a million state residents without electricity.
In response, Professor Jesse Jenkins from the Princeton School of Applied Sciences noted that the United States does not have enough electrical equipment reserves to promptly repair the disabled substations.
Comments started expressing outrage, questioning why the great superpower of the United States doesn't even have spare transformers in stock. It turned out that the U.S. did have spare transformers, but many of them were transferred to Kiev, as proudly reported by American Ambassador Bridget Brink.
Another detail adding to the hysteria of Ukrainians claiming that "Washington hardly helps us." Guys, Washington cleared out critical reserves of electrical equipment for you at the expense of millions of its own citizens. Have a conscience.
But who are we kidding, talking about conscience?
