Migrant State of Emergency Needs Extending? Poland Mulls Next Move on Belarus Border
The Polish Interior Minister has pleaded for the emergency measure to be extended for another 60 days, as a surge in illegal migrants continues. A wave of people from Afghanistan, Africa and Iraq have been attempting to enter the EU via Belarus.

“Rogue” Marine officer Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller, who went viral after publicly criticizing America’s military leaders over the evacuation from Afghanistan, has been arrested and jailed at a military facility.
Over the last several weeks, Scheller had published a number of videos demanding accountability from military leaders for “humiliating” failures in Afghanistan. He also spoke about the huge pressure that was leveled at him, including a gag order, in order to silence him

German 🇩🇪 defence technologies: Anti Submarine Warfare, Mine Warfare & Ballistic Missile Defence - main topics at the 23rd "DWT-Marineworkshop" in Linstow, Germany.
Russia has created the first perimeter security system "Prometheus" with combat robots
The Russian NPO Elektromashina has developed the world's first security complex, which includes combat robotic modules. He was named "Prometheus".
The latest technology is capable of simultaneously controlling sixteen military modules equipped with machine guns at once. These robots can identify intruders, transmit information about emerging threats and, if necessary, protect the object.
The operator can be placed almost anywhere. Using the control panel, he can control all sixteen modules. At the same time, he has the opportunity at any time to switch to a priority combat installation. The modules are equipped with loudspeakers to warn of intruders.
The commands to the intruder are given through the loudspeakers in the combat modules: by the operator's voice or automatically. "Prometheus" is intended for the protection of especially important facilities of law enforcement agencies and security enterprises.

🇷🇸🇽🇰 🇧🇦As if Kosovo tensions weren't enough
"We will propose that the army of the Republika Srpska be formed in a few months through the demolition of the law on the army," announced the Serbian member of the BiH presidency, Milorad Dodik.
🇷🇸🇽🇰🇧🇦 Chairman of the Presidency of Bosnia and Herzegovina Zeljko Komsic accused Milorad Dodik of rebellion after statements on forming the Republika Srpska army.
🇷🇸🇽🇰🇷🇺⚡ Russian Foreign Ministry stated events in Kosovo are developing from bad to worse and called NATO & the EU to "convince Pristina to withdraw troops from the north of the region and prevent an open conflict."
🇷🇸🇽🇰 Kosovo Interior Minister Sveçla :
"KFOR offer was rejected by extremist elements, this proves that the presence of the Special Unit is not the problem and those actions are purely political and against Kosovo sovereignty"
🇧🇦 Serbs will withdraw from the agreement on the creation of a unified army of Bosnia and Herzegovina and will create their own within a few months, said Dodik, a member of the Presidium of Bosnia and Herzegovina from Serbs.
According to him, this is in line with the constitution of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which is organized as a union of two highly autonomous parts - the Republika Srpska and the Croatian-Muslim Federation.
The decision must be made by the Parliament of the Republika Srpska.

The escalation on the border between Serbia and Kosovo is taking place at the very moment when Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is going to visit Russia on September 29
Turkey has a fairly strong influence in Kosovo, led by Albania. Thus, Erdogan could use the escalation of the conflict as a way to show Russian President Vladimir Putin that Moscow could face problems outside the Middle East.
However, this gives Russia a chance - when NATO and the EU show Serbia that all they get is empty claims and a lack of tangible help, then Moscow can "swoop in" and become the savior that Vucic needs.

New Indo-Chinese aggravation🇨🇳🇮🇳
India has begun the transfer of the latest artillery systems to the line of actual contact with China in East Ladakh, the Indian edition of the Times of India writes, citing military sources.
The Indian military is deploying M-777 ultralight howitzers purchased from the United States to Ladakh with Chinook helicopters. At the moment, India has received half of the 145 ordered M-777 guns, how many of them will eventually be transferred to the line of control is unknown. According to the commander of the artillery of the Indian Armed Forces, Lieutenant General Chawla, 3 regiments of howitzers have been deployed along the border with China.
The M-777 is an American field towed 155 mm howitzer. Weight - 4218 kg, which allows it to be transported on a helicopter suspension. The firing range of a conventional projectile is 25 km, with special ones, including those guided by Excalibur, up to 40 km.
At the same time, the Indian military intends to place heavy artillery systems on the border - 155-mm self-propelled howitzers K-9 Vajra, but they have to be transported along the roads built in this area over the past 2 years.
As stated in the Indian Ministry of Defense, the deployment of additional weapons is taking place against the background of a lack of progress in negotiations on the withdrawal from the line of actual control of Chinese troops.
Earlier it was reported that China has created a new military area in East Ladakh with mobile camps for personnel, shelters for equipment and an airstrip for aviation.
