💙💛 Covering Distances Up To 2,500 Km, Recognizing Terrain, And Evading EW: Borovyk Explains How Ukrainian Long-Range Drones Are Improving uatv.ua/en/covering-...

Trump has only allowed the transfer of 24 patriot missiles to Ukraine over the last 3 months. That is only 2 interceptors a week. Rather than ending patriot deliveries, Trump is sending a tiny amount so people can't complain he stopped while 95% of Russia's missiles still get to hit their targets.

Iran says it is monitoring its borders after reports that Ukraine is deploying thousands of drones in countries neighboring Iran, including Iraqi Kurdistan. Tehran said its armed forces will respond decisively wherever they perceive a threat. #Iran

A freight train derailed near Yekaterinburg, Russia, with 20 railcars leaving the tracks and seven fuel tankers catching fire. Rail traffic was completely suspended in both directions.

Roughly 1/4 of its workforce. $MSFT

One result of Ukrainian Defense Forces missile strikes on a permanent deployment point of Russian troops. The facility sustained serious damage in the attack. #Ukraine

Detailed FT report on rise in deadly strikes on commercial ships in Black Sea by both Ukraine and Russia. Turkish crew members have been killed and volume of shipping through Bosphorus has sharply declined, but Ankara has been very cautious in responding so far. www.ft.com/content/8c87...

This is the biggest corruption scandal in American history. The Trump crime family is trying to sell the future natural gas rights of Alaska to the Russians in exchange for $25 billion in cash for themselves today.

EXTRAORDINARY MOST EXTREME HEAT WAVE IN WORLD HISTORY Thousands of records brutalized in every single African country from North to South from East to West In 3 centuries of world climatology,there had never been anything remotely close to this insanity Wait for the posts coming

Planet satellite imagery indicates Proton-Electrotex in Oryol has been functionally destroyed. Both production workshops sustained major damage, including partial roof and wall collapses, while the plant’s clean-room areas were also hit. #Russia

The "poor Russian conscripts" are actually, in the overwhelming majority, not conscripts at all, but people who go to war to murder Ukrainians for money. ​"They have no choice" - what bullshit. Going to jail instead of bombing a playground full of children is a choice. Emigration is a choice.

FEDWATCH: “.. the AI trade bubble is evident across the entire AI infrastructure stack. .. Names such as Teradyne, Lam Research, GE Vernova, Vertiv, Bloom Energy, .. have fallen 30% to 35% from their late-June highs, while their investment-grade spreads have widened 40 to 60 basis points ..”

Sharing the beautiful update with you : just sent to my brother’s friend’s unit what you helped us fundraise to prepare their van for winter . The guys are so happy and say they didn’t expect so much could be raised so quickly ❤️‍🩹Thank you for your support , and

It's interesting that Musk cares more about Russian personnel than the Russian government does. After all, the most certain way for the killing to stop is for Russians to exit Ukraine. Of course this simple calculus is beyond the reasoning ability of the world's richest dumbass.

The Trump plan to help Putin is in full swing.

Here's the updated daily color stripes for the Nino 3.4 sea-surface temperature anomaly, now based on the 1991-2020 baseline and with a color bar going past black (3.0°C) into pink and beyond.

This is the kind of deal the Democrats need to investigate immediately if they take Congress. An oil deal in Alaska which actually might be a gift to the Russians with Trump involvement. www.ft.com/content/e9cf...

A reported fire has left a key power substation supplying Crimea from Russia disconnected. A satellite recorded thermal signatures there at 02:26, while local reports cited near-zero internet traffic and the possibility of intermittent electricity for some Crimean settlements. 1/2

A good target for today would be these fuel tanks @ Sevastopol. This depot has been struck repeatedly, but so have depots @ Dzhankoi, Feodosia and Kerch. Only drones with purpose can tell if there is any fuel inside: 44.58357792717573, 33.41670346010233

What this shows is that kissing Trump’s ass always fails. He reacts only to pressure. In this case terrible US polling, screaming Republicans, and catastrophic damage being done to US defense companies.

Ukrainian drones struck a fuel tanker truck and a nearby local fuel depot in occupied Zaporizhzhia resulting in the total loss of both: packaged-media.redd.it/fd3xaheu32xh...

Ukraine losing access to Starshield raises serious concerns for our national security—like who controls critical capabilities the U.S. government has spent billions to procure & how decisions to restrict them are made. I'm demanding answers from the Department of Defense & SpaceX

Historic heat continues in the Sahel 44.4 Podor, SENEGAL Only 0.1C from the national record and at record level for late October for all Northern Africa. 42.7 Nioro du Sahel ,MALI 38.2C Akim Oda,GHANA Monthly record broken by 3C ! More exceptional heat tomorrow

❗️Elon Musk says Ukraine violated Starlink’s terms by using it for offensive drone strikes and that the “loophole was closed last week.” Ukrainian veteran Bohdan Krotevych responded: “Imagine buying a device, paying a subscription fee, and having the head of that company threaten to shut it off.”

Zelensky says Starlink and Starshield have been restored to the speeds Ukraine had before the restrictions. Tests confirmed both are working, with speeds now sufficient for frontline logistics and defending against jet-powered Shaheds. #Ukraine

Here's the 30-day running average anomaly for the Niño 3.4 sea-surface temperature. The last 30 days have averaged a record 3.29°C above the 1991-2020 baseline. The forecast is a peak between 3.4°C and 3.5°C in late November. Will we need to extend the y-axis again? Stay tuned!

Starlink and Starshield operations have been restored to the speeds Ukraine had before the restrictions. - Zelenskyy
