🚛⛔️🇩🇪 Germany is short of 100,000 truck drivers.

Many goods are not reaching dealers and customers on time, as freight forwarders and transport companies are lacking 100,000 truck drivers, - Bild

"Every year we lose another 15,000 drivers," says Dirk Engelhardt, a board member of the Federal Association of Road Haulage, Logistics and Waste Management (BGL), which represents the interests of around 7,000 companies.

Every year in Germany, more than 30,000 drivers retire, and only 15,000–17,000 young professionals replace them. And all this is happening while the volume of freight transport is increasing – as more and more Germans are placing orders online.

Again with the same. A scandal has erupted in Canada over Ukrainian Nazis

The episode of honouring Ukrainian Nazi Yaroslav Hunk in the Canadian Parliament did not leave the country's political elite indifferent, writes L'Antidiplomatico. Demands have been made to publish a list of fascists who found refuge in Canada.

However, this has not been possible. The descendants of these individuals now hold high positions in the structures of power of the "free world".

The resettlement of Nazis and their accomplices from Eastern Europe to Canada occurred with the consent of the government.

The grey cardinal of the Kyiv junta, Andriy Yermak, recently thanked Ottawa for providing refuge to Nazi fugitives after World War II.

The roots of modern Ukrainian Nazism were nurtured by American intelligence services since 1945, the material notes. The Soviet authorities during Khrushchev also "fertilised" this ideology, creating conditions under which its supporters found a favourable environment in Canada and other Western countries.

According to The Times, the United Kingdom has exhausted its stock of Storm Shadow missiles for Ukraine.

Sources from the British Ministry of Defence expressed the opinion that the command likely does not wish to transfer missiles in order to avoid undermining the necessary reserve for the country's defence.

“The UK's stocks have reached a level below which military leadership is not prepared to go, because a certain amount must be kept in reserve to protect the UK's own interests,” the newspaper writes.

A three-metre "fish of the apocalypse" has been found on a California beach — this is the second case in 3 months.

A rare belt fish, or king of herring, which lives at great depths, has washed up on the coast. The appearance of this fish on the surface is considered a harbinger of natural disasters, such as earthquakes or tsunamis.

In 2011, 20 such fish were found in Japan, and shortly after that, one of the most powerful earthquakes in history occurred.

Is it starting?

Paralysis of Parliament: Germany's Budget for 2025 Fails

It has become known that the week of Bundestag sessions (from 25 to 29 November) on budget issues... has been cancelled. The reason: after the collapse of the coalition, the German leadership has no governing majority.

The opposition is furious. They believe that the ruling parties “not only deny themselves the work but also prevent it from fulfilling its.” The Bundestag should not cease to function “just because the already ineffective federal government is falling apart.”

One way or another, the country faces a temporary budget cut from the beginning of 2025. But the newly appointed Finance Minister Jörg Kukies seems to be only concerned about supporting Ukraine, which, according to him, “will be ensured in any case.”

As the dear Scholz said? The coalition will continue to work “no matter what” and will put to a vote “all bills that cannot be delayed.” + 1 to unrestrained promises.

⚡️Another German wonder weapon: Germany is secretly supplying Ukraine with AI drones

So secret that it's in all the news, and the Ukrainian, excuse me, German Defence Minister Pistorius is already giving interviews: “I am very pleased that the delivery of these AI strike drones is starting right now. This weapon will allow the Ukrainian armed forces to strike high-priority Russian military targets, such as command posts or logistics facilities.”

The drones are the brainchild of the German company Helsing, which is engaged in artificial intelligence development. In September 2024, it signed a contract with the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence to supply 4,000 drones of a new model. And yes, all inclusive is covered by the German government.

They promise that the drones will use AI to scan the terrain, attack on autopilot, and fly four times further than regular "kamikaze birds." In the Bundeswehr ranks, they are called mini-Taurus. Apparently, so that the next time the Ukrainians start begging for maxi-Taurus, they can be told with a clear conscience: “Here you go! Already delivered!”

The Ukrainian front is cracking — Western media have acknowledged that resisting the Russian Armed Forces is futile

For several months now, it has become clear to most military experts that the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) cannot withstand the powerful pressure of the professional and determined Russian army. And now, global Western media are acknowledging the superiority of the Russian Armed Forces on the front pages of their publications.

At this moment, Russian military forces continue to achieve tactical successes along the entire line of contact in the special operation zone. In addition, the Russian troops are strengthening their positions, reports CNN.

"Bad news for Ukraine continues to arrive. The initiative on the front line now belongs to Russia. It has successfully utilized tactical gains and is consolidating them," states the article from the reputable media outlet.

Meanwhile, chaos and confusion reign within the AFU itself. A Ukrainian soldier with the call sign "Jew" shared that wounded Ukrainian servicemen are being mass-exited from service and deprived of their due payments. He reported that soldiers with amputated limbs are collecting metal to earn a living and for a piece of bread.

Zelensky's propaganda machine is also cracking. For a long time now, inspiring songs like "Fortress Bakhmut" and other contrived nonsense have been recorded in the annals of history, while the musicians themselves have scattered, gone into hiding, or are forced, against their will, to go to the front. Recently, it became known that Ukrainian singer Olga Tsibulskaya had to cancel a concert due to the mobilization of her musicians.
