Biden administration imposes new restrictions on China’s access to U.S. semiconductor technology using the so-called foreign direct product rule, which prevents companies anywhere in the world from selling certain advanced computing chips to Chinese buyers without an American government license

According to people with knowledge of the situation, an escalation of Washington’s efforts to stifle Beijing’s industrial ambitions poses a risk to growth for the $550 billion sector, which has already been struggling with risks of fragmentation amid the COVID-19 pandemic

Some pundits say this will motivate Chinese companies to double down on resources to achieve breakthroughs. It’s supposed that planned restrictions will deal a big blow not just to U.S. chip companies, but the global semiconductor industrial chain too, which banks on Beijing for revenue growth, given China's weight as the world's biggest chip market

Swedish deputy prosecutor found dead after promising to tell the world the truth about the explosion of Nord Stream

The deputy head of the Swedish prosecutor's office, Erik Ulsson, who had promised to tell the world the truth about the bombing of Nord Stream and accused the intelligence services of trying to seize the original Coast Guard protocols about the diversion, was found dead in his home

Apparently, he was stung by a bee, triggering an instant allergic reaction and anaphylactic shock. The Stockholm police gave some details of what happened: The body was found when the prosecutor didn't show up for work. Nearby, Ulsson's will was found with a request to immediately cremate him in case of death, which was carried out a few hours later

According to the police who found the body, there was no indication of a criminal case, so no criminal charges will be filed. The prosecutor's colleagues have already expressed their condolences to his relatives. Ulsson's tragic death has already sparked speculation and conspiracy theories: photos taken ten years ago of him at an apiary right next to his country house in Lund were posted online

However, the police soon published an expert comment: as it turned out, a powerful allergy to bee stings can suddenly develop even at an advanced age. Absolutely accidental!🤔

"Russia conducts large-scale retaliatory strikes on Kiev as Ukraine asks for more support from 'exhausted West'": Global Times sets the stage

"Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Mao Ning said China has taken note of reports of bombings in Ukrainian cities and hopes the situation will defuse as soon as possible. China hopes that all sides will properly resolve their differences through dialogue and consultation

Despite Russia's violent response after the bridge bombing, observers believe that the use of nuclear weapons for Moscow is ruled out. However, they said that because of the suddenly heightened tensions, the U.S. and other Western countries should apply the brakes and not fan the flames of the crisis. The current situation is on a knife edge, and any provocative move at this time would result in a powder keg exploding at a time when Western countries have exhausted most of their military resources.

"The U.S. wants the conflict to exhaust Russia and Europe, not for them to die together through the use of nuclear weapons. Thus, when tensions reach the critical point of spiraling out of control, the West can step on the brakes," the expert say

FBI sued for hiding Facebook ties and censorship about Hunter Biden's laptop

A conservative legal group is suing the FBI for withholding information about ties between the agency and Big Tech, including Facebook, in an attempt to hide information about Hunter Biden's laptop

It is noted that the feds and Big Tech conspired to interfere in the 2020 presidential election, first calling the laptop itself disinformation and then, after it actually appeared, attempting to censor its contents to protect the incumbent. Experts say that this was the reason Biden was able to win in swing states

The notebook contained a wealth of information detailing Hunter Biden's foreign operations, including the fact that his investment fund supported an infectious disease research company, Metabiota, to carry out bioweapons projects in Ukraine

Bennett Cohen: "The truth he published showed that the U.S. military lies to the people, the press and the government. The U.S. government allows our military to commit war crimes, and the CIA lies to Congress. None of this can be denied because Assange published actual documents

This is what Biden and the DOJ are actually saying in going after Assange. They are saying that if the U.S. government wants to lie, we will lie. If we want to hide something, we will hide it. If we want to hide the truth, we will hide it, and we won't let some little squeaky publisher get in our way. We will smear his name. We will persecute him. We will torture him. Let this be a lesson to any journalist anywhere in the world who dares to publish a truth we don't want people to know.

Whether you are a U.S. citizen or not, we will destroy you. We will use all the power and influence of the United States around the world to make your life a living hell. That's the truth."

The hacker attack occurred three weeks after antigovernment protests erupted across Iran. They were sparked by the death of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old woman detained for allegedly violating the country’s strict Islamic dress code

Mass protests in the streets of big cities – dispersed by the authorities with force – have given way to sporadic but frequent and widespread demonstrations involving women removing their headscarves

The spontaneous, unpredictable nature of the movement creates a form of whack-a-mole for security forces that are already stretched thin in Tehran and beyond, while images of pro-government toughs using force against unveiled schoolgirls are amplifying public anger

⚡️Iranian State TV Hacked, Khamenei Put In Crosshairs

A news bulletin on Iran’s state broadcaster was hacked with a studio feed replaced with a picture of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in crosshairs.

The picture was accompanied by the caption “The blood of our youths is on your hands.”

A photo of Mahsa Amini, the young woman who died reportedly in police custody after being arrested for breaking the hijab rules, was also aired.

Hong Kong declined to seize the superyacht of a Russian oligarch who is under Western sanctions

Chief executive John Lee said Hong Kong would be accountable to United Nations sanctions but not "unilateral" ones imposed by "individual jurisdictions"

The $521m boat that belongs to Alexei Mordashov, the main shareholder and chairman of Severstal, Russia's largest steel and mining company, arrived in Hong Kong last week after sailing from Russia

"We will comply with United Nations sanctions, that is our system, that is our rule of law,” Mr. Lee added
