A popular social media account providing updates from the Islamic Republic of Iran Armed Forces has posted a series of menacing messages on X promising retaliation towards Israel after the strikes on Tehran.

Shortly after the Israeli strike, the Iran Military account posted, “Remember, we didn't initiate it,” followed by a post with a intimidating picture of a series of missiles with the caption, “In it for the long run.”

And what neuroscientists were involved in the development of the vaccines given in the US?

Neuroscientists named on patent for early Chinese covid vaccine raises questions about known neurological effects of SARS-CoV-2

By Rhoda Wilson on June 14, 2025

Chinese neuroscientists, including two neuroscientists from the Institute of Military Cognition and Brain Sciences, were involved in the development of China’s first covid vaccine patent, which was filed on 24 February 2020.

The presence of neuroscientists in the Chinese vaccine development process has raised questions for US federal investigators, as it was not known in the West at the time that SARS-CoV-2 caused neurological symptoms.

The following is paraphrased from the article ‘Chinese neuroscientists’ work on early covid-19 vaccine patent a smoking gun in probe of cover-up’ published by Just the News on 11 June 2025.

Please note that official sources and/or sources that are protecting the pandemic-vaccine industry will only refer to covid infection. They will not admit that it is the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein that is the pathological agent or bioweapon. Why?

They will not publicly mention the pathogenicity of the spike protein because if they did, they would have to admit that the spike protein, the bioweapon, which is in all covid injections – inactivated virus vaccines, viral vector vaccines and as encoded in the mRNA vaccines – is causing the harm that they claim is caused by a covid infection. It is a case of sifting through the propaganda to find the underlying truth within the narrative, rather than being triggered by the words they use. For example, in this case, where there is a reference to “covid infection,” read it as “covid injection.”

If SARS-CoV-2 was released or “leaked” in late 2019 or early 2020 in an attempt to start a pandemic, it was unsuccessful because it did not cause a pandemic and people who were infected experienced seasonal cold or flu-like symptoms. The real pandemic of a variety of diseases and conditions began with the rollout of the so-called covid “vaccines”; in short, it was infection by injection, which has resulted in a pandemic of the vaccinated.

NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day

Two Worlds, One Sun

How different does sunset appear from Mars than from Earth? For comparison, two images of our common star were taken at sunset, one from Earth and one from Mars. These images were scaled to have the same angular width and are featured here side-by-side. A quick inspection will reveal that the Sun appears slightly smaller from Mars than from Earth. This makes sense since Mars is 50% further from the Sun than Earth. More striking, perhaps, is that the Martian sunset is noticeably bluer near the Sun than the typically orange colors near the setting Sun from Earth. The reason for the blue hues from Mars is not fully understood, but thought to be related to forward scattering properties of Martian dust. The terrestrial sunset was taken in 2012 March from Marseille, France, while the Martian sunset was captured in 2015 by NASA's robotic Curiosity rover from Gale crater on Mars.

Today's Deltas and the current WAR.

Iran’s Muslim Brotherhood Ties Overshadow Rapprochement with Egypt

The Supreme Leader of Iran recently announced his support for normalizing relations with Egypt. Iranian media is also promoting the Sultan ofOman’srecent visit to Tehran as a possible attempt at mediation. Informed sources have told Al-Arabiya that the two countries have agreed to form a joint committee to coordinate the restoration of relations.

Tehran and Cairo have had a rugged relationship since the 1979 Revolution in Iran. Initially, the fallout resulted from strictly political grievances because Egypt ceased hostilities with Israel following theCamp David Accords,which was anathema to the intensely anti-Israeli Islamists in Iran. A little later, President Sadat granted asylum to the former Shah of Iran and refused to extradite him to the revolutionary regime in Tehran.

Although these two early eventscast a long shadowover the Iranian-Egyptian relationship, it is indeed the ideological affinity and cooperation between the Islamist regime in Iran and its counterpart in Egypt, namely the Muslim Brotherhood, which has posed an existential threat to whatever government has been in power in Cairo since the mid-twentieth century that keep the relationship between the two countries frigid.

Similarities between the Khomeinist Movement and the Muslim Brotherhood

The Muslim Brotherhood ideology inspired the Khomeinist movement in Iran, and Sayyid Qutb, one of the most influential Brotherhood theorists, has always been popular among Iranian Islamists. Although Ruhollah Khomeini, the founder of the Islamic Republic, did not openly acknowledge the Brotherhood’s influence, it is true that the current Supreme Leader of Iran Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has translated Qutb’s work into Farsi. According to Mohsen Kadivar, a prominent Iranian theologist, Qutb is Khamenei’s favorite writer.

The Muslim Brotherhood and the Khomeinist version of Islamism entertain an apocalyptic vision of the world. They are invested in the totalitarian ideology of Islamism, which holds that Islam is a total way of life that must supplant all other ways of life, including liberal democracy. The Islamic Republic and the Muslim Brotherhood detest and disregard the Westphalian order that is the basis of modern international law and seek to establish a pan-Islamic superstate through the conquest of the Middle East and, eventually, the rest of the world. They both share anti-Western, anti-Israeli, and anti-GCC sentiments.

The Iranian Islamists learned a lot from their Sunni brethren early on. They followed the Brotherhood’s model of infiltrating the West’s political, cultural, and academic institutions and guiding public opinion to legitimize their positions and gain leverage in the Middle East. In the U.S., the Shiite Student Islamic Association was founded as a splinter cell of the Brotherhood’s Muslim Students’ Association in North America in the 1960s.

The Islamic Center of Hamburg, the foremost Shiite institute of influence in the West at the time, closely followed in the Brotherhood’s footsteps when it implemented a sophisticated program of proselytization and engagement with European public intellectuals. That approach can still be seen in the lobbying practices of the institutions affiliated with the Iranian regime in the West.

The Muslim Brotherhood also taught the Iranian revolutionaries how to take up arms. During the 1960s and 1970s, many Iranian Islamists and radical Leftists were trained in guerrilla camps in Egypt and Syria under the auspices of Brotherhood-sympathetic army officers.

Fars Air Qeshm was established in 2003 with the aim of creating efficient passenger and cargo services serving Qeshm Island. The airline was created with the aid of private sector investment. It temporarily ceased operations in 2013 due to bad management and financial problems. Operations were restarted with new management team in March 2017 based in Tehran with two Boeing 747-281F Combi (Passenger / cargo) aircraft.

Multiple intelligence sources has accused Iranian government of using Fars Air Qeshm aircraft and its cargo route to Beirut in order to transport weapons for Hezbollah and cover up as civilian jets.[1]

UFO cover used by government to ‘hide a lot of things,’ former NASA agent says

Published June 15, 2025 6:00am EDT

In an era captivated by unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and government conspiracies, one former NASA official is cutting through the noise and casting doubt on aliens coming to Earth.

Joseph Gutheinz, a retired senior special agent with NASA’s Office of Inspector General and current criminal defense attorney, said it’s time to apply science, not speculation, to the debate.

"Prove it. Honestly, prove it," he said to those who believe in the presence of UFOs on Earth.

"They've been claiming that there have been UFOs since the 1940s. And, you know, Area 51 supposedly houses UFOs," he told Fox News Digital. "Have someone go in, look at Area 51."

Gutheinz said that during his work with the NASA Office of Inspector General, he would regularly get calls from individuals who believed they were abducted, or had a chip in their brain from aliens.

"What I used to tell my students was the possibility of anybody coming from another world to visit us was beyond unlikely," he said.

"And what I would tell the people that would call me up with these tales about being visited by aliens, see a psychiatrist."

Citing astronomical distances and scientific understanding of the solar system, Gutheinz explained the improbability of any extraterrestrial visitors reaching Earth.

"There are up to 400 billion stars in the Milky Way. There are maybe one to two trillion galaxies in the universe.

But the reality is this, the closest solar system is Alpha Centauri. Alpha Centauri A, B, and Proxima Centauri are the closest stars," he said.

"The bottom line is that it's 4.4 light years away, or 25 trillion miles away.

And if somebody started flying to Proxima and Satori, or the other way around, it would take them over 70,000 years to get there," he said. "Nobody is visiting us from another world, likely."

He pointed to moons like Europa, Ganymede, Titan, and Triton as the only plausible places for primitive life in our solar system.

"If there is life on any of those moons, it's possible. Again, it is primitive, it is microorganisms, it's nothing that's going to visit us in a flying saucer."

When asked whether such sightings could be explained as natural or spiritual phenomena, he suggested that it could be government testing.

"If you're seeing something up there, and it's real, it's coming from the Chinese or the Russians or your next-door neighbor flying around with their drone," he said.

Historical military secrecy, Gutheinz suggested, may have played a major role in fostering the UFO myths.

"I believe early on in the 1940s when all these UFO stories started coming up, it was because the military was probably testing some aircraft, and they didn't want the Russians to know about it," he said.

"And so, if the UFO cover worked, and I would not be surprised if there are some people in the military and the government that played along with that in order to conceal our stealth technology, that is really remarkable, and they just don't want to share that with other countries."

"The bottom line is, I think that we use the UFO cover to hide a lot of things."

Fox News Digital has reached out to NASA for comment.

NASA, Partners Review Axiom Mission 4 Launch Opportunities

June 14, 2025

NASA, Axiom Space, and SpaceX are reviewing launch opportunities no earlier than Thursday, June 19, for the fourth private astronaut mission to the International Space Station, Axiom Mission 4.

On June 12, NASA and Axiom Space delayed the mission as the agency continued to work with Roscosmos to understand the most recent repair efforts to seal small leaks.

The leaks, located in the aft (back) most segment of the International Space Station’s Zvezda service module, have been monitored by flight controllers for the past few years.

Following the most-recent repair, pressure in the transfer tunnel has been stable. Previously, pressure in this area would have dropped. This could indicate the small leaks have been sealed.

Teams are also considering the stable pressure could be the result of a small amount of air flowing into the transfer tunnel across the hatch seal from the main part of space station.

By changing pressure in the transfer tunnel and monitoring over time, teams are evaluating the condition of the transfer tunnel and the hatch seal between the space station and the back of Zvezda.

It is not uncommon for the agency and its international partners to adjust launches around changes in operations aboard the space station.

Teams are making progress evaluating the transfer tunnel configuration, resulting in an updated launch opportunity for the private astronaut mission.

In addition, SpaceX teams have repaired a liquid oxygen leak identified during post-static fire Falcon 9 rocket inspections. Following the repairs, the company completed a wet dress rehearsal of the Falcon 9.

Peggy Whitson, former NASA astronaut and director of human spaceflight at Axiom Space, will command the commercial mission, while ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation) astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla will serve as pilot.

The two mission specialists are ESA (European Space Agency) project astronaut Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski of Poland and Tibor Kapu of Hungary.

The crew will lift off aboard the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft on Falcon 9 from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

McCain Defends Clinton Aide Huma Abedin Against Bachmann Accusation About Muslim Brotherhood

Describing the accusations against her as "ugly" and "sinister," Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., came to the defense of Huma Abedin, longtime aide to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.

Last week five Republican members of the House of Representatives, including former presidential candidate Michele Bachmann, made claims that Abedin's family has ties to Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood and questioned whether she is part of a nefarious conspiracy to harm the United States by influencing U.S. foreign policy with her high-level position at the State Department.

"The Departments Deputy, Chief of Staff, Huma Abedin, has three family members - her late father, her mother and her brother - connected to Muslim Brotherhood operatives and /or organizations. Her position affords her routine access to the Secretary and to policy making," according to the the June 13 th letter, signed by Reps. Bachmann, R-Minn., Trent Franks, R-Ariz., Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, Thomas Rooney, R-Fla., and Lynn Westmoreland, R-GA.

The letter was sent to Harold Geisel, the Deputy Inspector General at the Department of State, while similar copies were sent to the Departments of Homeland Security, Justice, Defense and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.

Incredible NASA Imaging Shows the Most Traveled “Underwater Highways” on Earth

June 15, 2025

Photos taken from space help us better understand things that happen on land.

They visualize land masses such as mountain ranges, show where different ecosystems meet, and even how the population of cities expand over time.

But have you ever considered that space imaging may also help us understand the Earth’s oceans, too?

Oceans cover about 71% of Earth, while land makes up the remaining 29%.

It’s no secret that much of the world’s oceans are a mystery, but a project from NASA may help us uncover just a bit more of what happens beneath the surface.

An ocean current visualization model created by NASA’s Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean (ECOO) Group plots out the most traveled underwater highways on Earth.

Pulling data from buoys, spacecraft, and other instruments, the model almost resembles Vincent van Gogh’s famous impasto style, immortalized in Starry Night.

Besides looking beautiful, this visualization also demonstrates the importance of Earth’s oceans in creating the conditions that allow life to thrive. Ocean currents function as underwater highways and operate on horizontal and vertical axes.

Thanks to this dual flow, ocean currents transport carbon, nutrients, and heat around the planet. In effect, these underwater highways support marine ecosystems and regulate the Earth’s climate.

In an article written for NASA, James Riordon says: “In addition to affecting global weather patterns and temperatures, western boundary currents can drive vertical flows in the oceans known as upwellings.

The flows bring nutrients up from the depths to the surface, where they act as fertilizer for phytoplankton, algae, and aquatic plants.” A prime example of this happens near the Kuroshio Current of Japan.

Upswelling that occurs there supports robust local marine ecosystems, which support Japan’s fishing industry.

The oceanic current patterns connect to essentially form a “conveyor belt,” which distributes heat from the equator towards the poles of the planet. It has a direct effect on regional climates, both near and far.

Take, for example, the Gulf Stream and the United States. This particular current is responsible for moderating temperatures along the U.S.’s Eastern Coast.

It is also important for the climate in Europe and parts of Africa: without it, the winters in the former would be significantly colder, and droughts would be more severe in the latter.

If you’ve watched any of the hurricanes that have recently occurred in the United States, you may notice that sometimes they seem to follow the path of these underwater highways as well.

With climate change and the increasing addition of freshwater from melting polar ice caps, the underwater highway systems are experiencing a slowdown in their current exchange.

Researchers worry that if currents continue to slow, these underwater highways may collapse. Such a breakdown would greatly affect planetary heat distribution, marine ecosystem support, and weather pattern disruption.

As we appreciate the beauty of this ocean visualization model and Earth’s underwater highways, we must remember how delicate these systems that sustain life are, and the consequences we may face if they become altered beyond repair.

While images from space usually show us what happens on land, a new project by NASA dives deeper into the Earth's oceans.

Developed using data from the Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean (ECOO) Group, the visualization model examines the planet's current systems.

These “underwater highways” regulate the Earth's temperature, support marine ecosystems, and determine regional climate and weather events.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN OATH OF OFFICE, OATH OF ENLISTMENT

30 JUL 2015 | 2nd Lt. Marco Valenzuela

Marine Corps Base Quantico

Marine Corps Base Quantico - Warrant Officer Hugh Thompson willingly disobeyed a commander’s orders and even threatened to open fire on American troops when he saved the lives of at least 10 Vietnamese civilians during the My Lai Massacre. Not only was Thompson never punished for disobeying orders, but he was later awarded the Soldier’s Medal for his courageous actions.

If the orders given that day had been lawful he could have faced court martial or even charges of treason under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

The My Lai Massacre was not the first or the last time a military force would be misused or corrupted. This type of power abuse is what the UCMJ and Oath of Office were designed to prevent and also what allowed Thompson to do the right thing without punishment.

There is an important difference to understand when reading the Officers' Oath of Enlistment compared to the Oath of Office.

• Both officers and enlisted service members swear to support and defend the Constitution of the United States,but in the Oath of Enlistment, service members swear they will “obey the orders of the president of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over [them], according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice.”

•Officers do not include this in their Oath of Office.

•Instead, they swear to support and defend the constitution and “well and faithfully discharge the duties of [their] office.”

•Why are the two oaths different and what does it mean that officers do not swear obedience to the president or higher ranking officers?

This concept traces back to the intentions of the Founding Fathers who created our governing system with a separation of powers and series of checks and balances between the three branches.This ensures no single branch or person gains too much power and becomes corrupted.

• By swearing allegiance to a set of ideals and laws, our military is not bound by the orders of a single person, but are dedicated to the defense of the people and their way of life.

Despite disobeying orders and even threatening to open fire on American troops, Thompson’s actions prevented further war crimes and defended the lives of noncombatants in Vietnam.This is the purpose behind the Oath of Office allowing for the disobedience to unlawful orders.

The obligation and responsibility to act against unlawful orders is not exclusive to officers. Article 90 of the UCMJ statesthat service members are only obligated to obey lawful orders. This gives authority to small unit leaders and even riflemen to use their judgment to serve honorably and disobey orders when they do not uphold the moral standards of our service. Not only does this act as a safeguard to corruption and abuse of power, but it also develops a sense of responsibility and leadership at all levels of command.

If this is the case, however, then why is the distinction made between the two oaths when both enlisted and officers are not obligated to follow unlawful orders according to the UCMJ?

• Officers, especially at higher ranks, have a unique position of authority and influence within the organization that could be taken advantage of for political gain.Swearing loyalty to the Constitution instead of the president or any other person means that officials cannot manipulate officers in order to gain control over the military and become dictators.

• The intent is to ensure our military fights in defense of the people and their way of life instead of being misused for political gain.Article 90 of the UCMJ allows for legal disobedience of unlawful orders for both enlisted and officers.

The officer’s oath acts as another safeguard against power corruptionby not swearing obedience to the president or other officials, but rather to the Constitution. As a result of these two, our military is capable of having people like Thompson, who can correct situations where the military is being misused without fear of punishment for their actions.

Giving the individual Marine responsibility for judging orders as right or wrong keeps our service members accountable and helps keeps our honor clean as a professional warfighting organization.

SEN. CRUZ, REP. DIAZ-BALART REINTRODUCE THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD TERRORIST DESIGNATION ACT

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart (R-Fla.) this week introduced the Muslim Brotherhood Terrorist Designation Act, a bill that urges the U.S. Department of State to use its statutory authority to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO). This measure requires the Department of State to report to Congress about whether the Muslim Brotherhood meets the legal criteria for designation, and if so, will enable the U.S. to take action that could stifle the funding they receive to promote their malign activities.

The Senate bill is cosponsored by Sens. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.) and Ron Johnson (R-Wis.). The House bill is cosponsored by Reps. Kay Granger (R-Texas), Chuck Fleishmann (R-Tenn.), Bill Johnson (R-Ohio), Thomas Massie (R-Ky.), Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), Scott DesJarlais (R-Tenn.), Guy Reschenthaler (R-Pa.), John H. Rutherford (R-Fla.), Louie Gohmert (R-Texas), Mike Bost (R-Ill.), Glenn Grothman (R-Wis.), Kat Cammack (R-Fla.), and Pat Fallon (R-Texas).

Upon introduction, Sen. Cruz said:

“It’s high time we join our allies in the Arab world in formally recognizing the Muslim Brotherhood for what they truly are—a terrorist organization. So today, I’m proud to reintroduce this bill to urge the Biden administration to designate them as such, and advance our nation’s fight against radical Islamic terrorism. We have a duty to hold the Muslim Brotherhood accountable for their role in financing and promoting terrorism across the Middle East.”

James Webb telescope discovers 'a new kind of climate' on Pluto, unlike anything else in our solar system

June 15, 2025

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have taken a fresh look at the distant edges of our solar system — and found that, once again, Pluto is defying expectations.

When NASA's New Horizons spacecraft flew past Pluto in 2015, it shattered the notion that the dwarf planet was a dormant ball of ice, instead revealing it to be rich with icy plains and jagged mountains.

But one of the biggest surprises floated above it all: a bluish, multi-layered haze blanketing the world's sky, stretching more than 185 miles (300 kilometers) above the surface — far higher and more intricate than scientists had predicted.

Now, nearly a decade later, new data from JWST confirm that Pluto's haze isn't just a visual oddity, it also controls the dwarf planet's climate.

"This is unique in the solar system," Tanguy Bertrand, an astronomer at the Paris Observatory in France who led the analysis, told Live Science. "It's a new kind of climate, let's say."

The findings, described in a study published June 2 in the journal Nature Astronomy, suggest similar dynamics may be at play on other haze-shrouded worlds in our solar system, and even offer clues about our own planet's early climate.

Lifting the haze

Pluto's high-altitude haze is made of complex organic molecules from sunlight-driven reactions of methane and nitrogen. The idea that this haze could control Pluto's climate was first proposed in 2017.

Computer models suggested these particles absorb sunlight during the day and release it back into space as infrared energy at night, cooling the atmosphere much more efficiently than gases alone.

This could also explain why Pluto's upper atmosphere is roughly -333 degrees Fahrenheit (-203 degrees Celsius) — 30 degrees cooler than expected.

For years, however, testing that theory proved difficult. One major challenge was Pluto's large moon, Charon, which orbits the frigid planet so closely that their thermal signals often overlap in telescope data.

"Basically, we couldn't know what part of the signal is due to Charon and what part is due to Pluto's haze," Bertrand said.

The researchers behind the 2017 study predicted that Pluto's haze would make the world unusually bright in mid-infrared wavelengths — a prediction that, at the time, could only be tested with future instruments.

That opportunity arrived in 2022, when JWST's powerful infrared instruments were finally able to separate the two worlds' signals. Sure enough, the faint infrared glow of Pluto's haze matched the predictions.

"In planetary science, it's not common to have a hypothesis confirmed so quickly, within just a few years," Xi Zhang, a planetary scientist at the University of California, Santa Cruz who led the 2017 team, said in a statement. "So we feel pretty lucky and very excited."

These findings also open up the possibility that similar haze-driven climates might exist on other hazy worlds, such as Neptune's moon Triton or Saturn's moon Titan, Bertrand said.

Even Earth's distant past might bear a resemblance, the researchers said. Before oxygen transformed our planet's skies, it's possible that Earth was veiled in a haze of organic particles — a blanket that may have helped stabilize temperatures and foster early life.

"By studying Pluto's haze and chemistry, we might get new insights into the conditions that made early Earth habitable," Zhang said in the statement.

Is China Quietly Aiding Iran In Attacking Israel?

Iranian media report that a second Chinese military transport plane has landed at an airport in Iran. Is China getting involved??

JUN 15, 2025

As Israel intensifies its military campaign against Iran, a second Chinese transport plane has reportedly landed in Iran, sparking fears that Beijing is quietly bolstering its strategic ally. With Iran as China’s largest oil provider, the escalating conflict threatens to disrupt Beijing’s energy security and economy, prompting speculation about the extent of China’s involvement. Amid unverified claims of military aid and confirmed diplomatic support, the so-called “Red-Green Alliance” between China and Iran is under scrutiny. Could Beijing’s economic dependence on Iranian oil and its anti-Western axis push it to intervene in this volatile conflict?

Second Transport Plane Lands in Iran

In the last 24 hours, social media reports have claimed that a second Chinese cargo plane touched down in Iran, following an earlier flight. These planes, allegedly carrying unknown cargo, have fueled speculation of military aid, with some suggesting drones, air defense radar parts, or other equipment. The claims remain unverified, lacking evidence like flight tracking data or official statements. However, the timing—amid Israel’s strikes on Iran’s nuclear and military sites since June 13, 2025—raises alarms about China’s intentions.

Published Jun 15, 2025,

A Chinese Airbus A330-243F cargo aircraft departed from Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport and flew southwest over eastern Turkmenistan before turning off its transponder and entering Iranian airspace. The flight originated from Zhengzhou and was tracked as a possible military charter carrying unknown cargo. Although the final destination was listed as Luxembourg, the plane did not proceed there. This movement has drawn attention amid heightened geopolitical tensions, with some Western commentators suggesting the cargo may include military equipment. Chinese authorities have previously condemned Israeli attacks on Iran's nuclear facilities, labeling them as "nuclear terrorism." Israeli sources indicate that China is moving to support Iran, with Chinese Air Force planes spotted near Turkmenistan before approaching Iranian territory.

Russia tests new laser weapons

14 Jun, 2025 20:13

Russia has successfully tested eight anti-aircraft laser systems, the government said on Friday. They were designed specifically to tackle drone threats, the statement added.

The trials were attended by senior Russian officials, including Russian First Deputy Prime Minister Denis Manturov.

The tests were conducted at specialized proving grounds and organized by Russia’s Military-Industrial Commission and Ministry of Industry and Trade.

“During the tests, the accuracy of guidance, range of destruction, reaction speed of the systems to moving air targets, and resistance to various weather conditions were checked,” the Russian government said in its statement.

Eight new weapons, ranging from “compact mobile devices to stationary high-power systems,” were tested during the trials.

The laser weapons faced assorted targets, including small-sized commercial drones and “more complex devices simulating reconnaissance and attack drones,” the Kremlin said.

Footage of the trials shows drones getting shot out of the sky by laser beams and crashing into the ground. The video also features the destroyed targets put on display, with some of the drones appearing to bear distinct burn marks.

All the systems featured at the test performed as advertised by their manufacturers, the statement noted. It also said that the trials proved “the correctness of the chosen direction for the development of integrated defense systems” to protect critical infrastructure facilities from UAVs.

The trials pave the way to mass production of the relevant systems and to scaling the solutions displayed by the manufacturers, it added.

Attempts to create laser-based weaponry, including anti-aircraft systems, have been repeatedly made by many nations.

Most combat laser systems however, never made it past the prototype stage, being plagued by assorted operational and technical issues, including too short a range and dependency on high-output power sources.

The conflict between Russia and Ukraine, where cheap mass-produced drones have become a key tool for both battlefield use and long-range strikes, has apparently given a new impetus to the development of laser-based systems.

In recent months, several countries, including Ukraine, India, and Israel, have unveiled new weapons of the type.

Iran to roll back cooperation with UN nuclear watchdog

15 Jun, 2025 02:44

Tehran will limit its cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) over what it has called the organization’s “silence” regarding Israeli strikes, according to Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi.

Israeli jets bombed nuclear and military facilities in Iran on Friday morning in what West Jerusalem described as an operation to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.

Iran, which denies having a military nuclear program, responded by saying the bombing was tantamount to a declaration of war and launched its own strikes against Israel.

Tehran also suspended nuclear negotiations with the US; the next round had originally been scheduled for Sunday.

“We have decided that, from now on, we will no longer announce the details of our nuclear activities to the Agency in advance.

This is part of a review of the level of our cooperation, which will no longer be the same as before,” Gharibabadi told SNN on Saturday.

“We have always maintained the most transparent peaceful nuclear program, but when the Agency and its Board of Governors remain silent in the face of Israeli aggression or issue resolutions influenced by political pressure, we can no longer maintain the same level of cooperation,” he added.

Without directly blaming Israel, the IAEA released a statement on Friday stressing that attacks on civilian nuclear sites are illegal under international law and called for dialogue.

The international watchdog had previously reported finding uranium traces at locations Iran had not declared as nuclear sites and, on Thursday, formally accused the Islamic Republic of breaching its non-proliferation obligations.

Tehran has rejected the allegations as politically motivated.

Russia delivers remains of over 1,200 troops to Ukraine – sources

15 Jun, 2025 10:25

Moscow has handed over the bodies of another 1,200 fallen Ukrainian troops to Kiev, RT has learned. There have been several exchanges already between the two sides during the week.

The transfer reportedly happened in line with agreements reached during talks in Istanbul earlier this month, sources told RT on Sunday.

The sources added that Kiev had not returned any Russian troop remains in the latest exchange.

During the negotiations in Türkiye on June 2, delegations from Moscow and Kiev agreed to carry out a series of prisoner swaps, focusing primarily on seriously injured, ill, and younger POWs.

Russia also unilaterally decided to repatriate the bodies of more than 6,000 slain Ukrainian troops on humanitarian grounds.

POW swaps between the sides have taken place on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday, with neither Moscow nor Kiev officially disclosing the number of prisoners they handed over and received.

Russia initially tried to return the remains over the previous weekend, but Ukraine’s representatives failed to show up at the exchange point on the border between Belarus and Ukraine.

Kiev later claimed that it had not agreed on the date of the transfer and accused Moscow of “using humanitarian issues for information purposes.”

The handover eventually began mid-week, with Ukraine receiving 1,212 bodies from Russia on Wednesday and 1,200 more on Friday.

According to Russian presidential aide Vladimir Medinsky, who serves as Moscow’s chief negotiator in talks with Kiev, Ukraine has so far returned the bodies 27 slain Russian servicemen.

Shahed Drone Factory in Russia Reportedly Struck - Fires, Airport Shutdowns Follow

June 15, 2025, 4:47 pm

Three attack drones were launched toward a base housing U.S. forces in Iraq as the Iranian regime carried out ballistic missile and UAV attacks on Israel, two American officials confirmed to the Associated Press on Saturday.

The drones heading for Al-Asad Airbase in Anbar province were intercepted, according to a U.S. military official and a second U.S. official, who both spoke anonymously because they were not authorized to brief the press.

No group claimed responsibility for the attack, according to the AP.

The leader of the Iraq-based Iranian-backed Shi’ite militia Kata’ib Hezbollah, Abu Hussein al-Hamidawi, threatened on Sunday to intervene in the Israel-Iran conflict.

Al-Hamidawi said the militia was closely monitoring the actions of Israel and the United States, and if Washington intervenes in the Jewish state’s war with Iran, it would attack American interests and bases in the Middle East “without hesitation.”

However, the terrorist leader in his statement claimed that the Islamic Republic does not need any help to deter Jerusalem and that it has the capabilities to “bury [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu’s nose in the dirt” and to “rein in the tyranny of this usurping entity.”

Kata’ib Hezbollah also urged the “closing of the embassy of the greatest evil,” a reference to the United States legation in Baghdad, and “expelling the American occupation forces from the country, as they pose the clearest and gravest threat to Iraq’s security and the stability of the region.”

The United States in 2009 designated Kata’ib Hezbollah (“The Battalions of the Party of God”), which is a separate and distinct organization from Lebanon’s Hezbollah, as a foreign terrorist group due to its incessant attacks on U.S. diplomatic and military personnel in Iraq and Syria.

I love and appreciate President Trump, his main goal is to stop the wars and make the world in harmony and abundant with Peace!

As Commander in Chief, Trump Says He Will Defend Our Country 1/2

Jan. 20, 2025 | By David Vergun, DOD News

"As commander in chief, I have no higher responsibility than to defend our country from threats and invasions, and that is exactly what I am going to do," said President Donald J. Trump during his inauguration address today as the nation's 47th president, alongside Vice President JD Vance.

"America will soon be greater, stronger and far more exceptional than ever before," he said. "I return to the presidency confident and optimistic that we are at the start of a thrilling new era of national success. A tide of change is sweeping the country.
