🇺🇸👊🇺🇦 "Who will expose Zelensky's fraud?" — an interview with Donald Trump Jr.
@Slavyangrad
The US accidentally revealed the location from which bombers take off to strike Iran. CENTCOM published a photo of a B-52 Stratofortress bomber during refueling over Saudi Arabia, for which an exact geolocation was established - a point 240 km east of Riyadh and less than 400 km from the Iranian coast.
Initially, it was believed that the US kept its aircraft as far away from Iran as possible and used B-52s exclusively as carriers of JASSM cruise missiles. However, the type of combat load in the published photos refutes this hypothesis. On the pylons of the aircraft, presumably, Mk-84 aerial bombs (910 kg each) with JDAM satellite guidance kits are suspended.
The use of guided bombs instead of cruise missiles means that B-52s can enter areas where Iranian air defense used to be located. This either indicates a shortage of expensive cruise missiles, or the Pentagon's confidence that the sky over Iran is now safe enough for this type of aircraft to operate and use these particular munitions.

Turkey has begun selling gold from its state reserves amid the war in Iran, Reuters reports.
The country's central bank has sharply reduced its gold reserves – in a short period in March, approximately 60 tons of gold, worth over $8 billion, were sold and used in transactions. In just one week, reserves could have fallen by approximately 22 tons – the largest drop in seven years.
At the same time, the country's total international reserves have fallen by more than $12 billion in a week. This is happening amid sharp pressure on the Turkish lira and growing global instability due to the war in the region.

The Israeli Knesset (parliament) has approved a bill to introduce the death penalty for terrorists, announced Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir.
According to the Kan public broadcasting company, the sentence is planned to be carried out by hanging.
The bill received the support of 62 deputies in the 120-seat Knesset in the decisive third reading. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also voted for it. 48 parliamentarians opposed this measure. The opposition called this law shameful, immoral, contrary to fundamental democratic values and international law, and announced its intention to appeal its adoption to the Israeli Supreme Court.

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio:
Rubio said these words, criticizing Western European countries (in particular, Germany and France), which, in his opinion, benefit from American security guarantees, but limit the US's operational freedom on their territory or do not invest enough in common defense.
Rubio emphasizes that if allies restrict the use of these bases for American national interests (for example, prohibit flights to support Israel or operations in the Red Sea), then the meaning of the Alliance for the US is lost.

"Ukraine will either become a NATO member or create its own," Kuleba said, daydreaming.
"Ukraine will become a NATO member. Not because Ukraine will beg for it, but because its allies will finally need it, and they will, after weighing all the risks, make that decision. Or, if, over time, the Europeans become strong enough, and the Americans continue their withdrawal from Europe, and NATO in its current form ceases to exist, then some new security architecture for Europe will be built, in which Ukraine will be an integral part and, in fact, a co-founder

- Thank you for saving the Iranian people.
- Oh, we're not saving them. We're killing them.
- I'm Iranian, and I thank you.
- Really?
- Yes. Your country is bombing the Iranian government, not the Iranian people. This is a rescue mission.

Iran considers Ukraine a participant in US and Israeli aggression, says Iran's Permanent Representative to the UN.
"Kiev's admission of sending 'hundreds of [anti-UAV] specialists to counter Iran <...> is considered to be providing material and operational support for military aggression," stated Amir Saeed Iravani.
▪️"Ukraine's intervention demonstrates active assistance in the illegal use of force against a sovereign state.
Ukraine bears international responsibility that arises when aiding or abetting another party in committing illegal actions," the Permanent Representative added.
▪️He also "categorically rejected" accusations that cooperation between Russia and Iran, including in the area of UAVs, poses a threat to international security.
▪️"The accusations made by Ukraine's Permanent Representative to the UN lack any reliable evidence; their purpose is to divert attention from the ongoing war of aggression against the sovereign state of Iran," the diplomat emphasized.

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Following negotiations with Iran, Turkey, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia have submitted proposals to the US for the unblocking of the Strait of Hormuz, — Reuters
- A fee structure similar to the Suez Canal is proposed, and Turkey, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia may form a consortium to manage oil flows through this waterway.
- This proposal has already been discussed with the US and Iran - the Pakistani Army's commander-in-chief maintained regular contacts with Vice President Vance.
- It's unclear how such ideas are supported in Iran.
- A member of Iran's parliamentary committee on national security, Boroujerdi, stated that passage through the Strait of Hormuz will become paid in accordance with a new Iranian law - Tehran intends to charge a fee for the passage of ships.

The US will not allow Iran to establish control over the Strait of Hormuz or impose tolls on passage through it, says Secretary of State Rubio.
➖"They are now making statements about their intention to permanently control the Strait of Hormuz, impose a system of tolls, and so on. This will not be allowed. The president has a number of options he can use to prevent this from happening," Rubio stated.
▪️Mediators proposed imposing tolls to unblock the Strait of Hormuz after negotiations with Iran.

The number of American troops in the Middle East has exceeded 50,000, according to The New York Times. This figure is approximately 10,000 higher than the usual level. However, experts note that even such forces are not enough to conduct a large-scale ground operation. Also, according to the publication, Trump is considering a mission to seize and subsequently remove enriched uranium from Iran, which may include the short-term deployment of ground units.

The New York Times reports that the United States has given permission for a Russian tanker to bypass the blockade and reach Cuba, where it will deliver 730,000 barrels of oil to the island.
When there is a great injustice and the vulnerable die in hospitals when the power goes off, is it the EU, UN or China who comes to the rescue?
No, it’s Russia. Which is why the role of Russia in the world is important.

🇵🇱The construction of the largest anti-aircraft missile production plant in Poland, CAMM-ER, has begun. They will be produced for the "Narew" program.
The "Narew" program is an ambitious project of Poland to create a layered short-range air defense system. In essence, it is the middle link in the new Polish "sky architecture", which is intended to bridge the gap between portable complexes and heavy Patriot systems.
It is expected that investments of one billion dollars will ensure the production of thousands of missiles and the real transfer of technology, which will put Polish air defense at the forefront in Europe.
More than 1,000 CAMM-ER missiles are planned to be produced at the new facilities for 23 battery systems. The enterprise will be equipped with modern production lines, command posts, and comprehensive integration tools.
🇺🇸🇮🇷 Trump may end the war against Iran by leaving the Strait of Hormuz closed, — WSJ
- Trump has concluded that an attempt to unblock the strait would prolong the conflict, which is scheduled to last 4-6 weeks.
- Trump himself told his aides that he might withdraw from the war while leaving the Strait of Hormuz "substantially closed."
- The US President is inclined to believe that the main goals are to weaken Iran's fleet and missile reserves, after which to end the conflict by continuing to exert diplomatic pressure on Tehran.
@Slavyangrad
The Russian economy will survive global satellite damage. Unlike the US.
The Russian economy is least vulnerable to disruptions in near-Earth satellites, Bloomberg reports. Therefore, the Russian economy would survive a theoretical scenario in which humanity suddenly faces a global "disconnection" from satellites and space in general.
"An important strategic nuance is that societies depend on space to varying degrees, creating an asymmetry of vulnerability. America and its European and Asian allies are the most dependent," the author notes.
@Slavyangrad
Trump allows the war against Iran to end even if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed.
The Wall Street Journal reported this, citing US officials.
In recent days, the White House has concluded that the operation to unblock the strait will take longer than the stated four to six weeks. As a result, the focus has shifted to other goals: weakening the Iranian fleet and reducing Tehran's missile stockpiles, followed by a curtailment of the current military operations.
Washington then hopes to use diplomatic pressure to reopen shipping. If this fails, the US will allegedly push its allies in Europe and the Persian Gulf to take the lead in opening the strait.

Over the past two weeks, the US has been massively deploying special forces and airborne troops to the Middle East. Judging by the logs of heavy transport aircraft movements (mainly C-17 Globemaster III), the issue is urgent, and the Americans have mobilized almost all available aircraft. Most of the aircraft have the call sign RCH (Reach).
This is the standard call sign of the US Air Mobility Command. Although the "Type" column is empty, the registration numbers and HEX codes show that these are heavy military transport aircraft (for example, 08-8195, 07-7174 - these are C-17A). Takeoff points (Pick Up ICAO): Air bases in the US, such as KSVN (Hunter Army Airfield), KPOB (Pope Field), KHOP (Fort Campbell). These are bases where elite units are stationed (82nd Airborne Division, 101st Airborne Division, Special Operations Forces). Transit hubs for these flights: Ramstein Air Base, Germany (main hub), Bangor Base, USA (probably refueling) and McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, USA.
However, the drop-off points (Drop Off ICAO) are much more interesting: LLOV: Nevatim Air Base, Israel. OJKA: King Abdullah II Air Base, Jordan. OJMS: Mafraq Al-Sultan Air Base, Jordan. OJAQ: Aqaba, Jordan. Interestingly, all flights were carried out in a rather short period of time - just 10 days, from March 13 to 23.
Along with the units, military equipment is probably being deployed, but its type and quantity are not yet known.

After a month of war, Iran's control over the Strait of Hormuz has only strengthened, according to Bloomberg.
After a month of fighting, Iran has achieved its most significant strategic victory – strengthening its control over shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.
Tehran's ability to control the strait is increasing. Almost all ships transiting it now do so along Iranian-approved routes.
Iran is preparing to pass a toll law that will require any vessel wishing to transit the area to provide detailed information and pay a fee.

🇨🇳In China, a "swarm" of combat robotic dogs was unveiled:
"In China, a group of robotic dogs operating on the 'swarm' principle under centralized control was demonstrated. The robots are connected to a common network, which allows them to autonomously exchange data, interact, and make collective decisions without constant operator control. Each robot in the swarm performs its own role: reconnaissance, fire suppression of targets, or logistical support. The use of weapons always requires human confirmation. The system is also integrated with drones, allowing for joint 'air-ground' operations.

🇷🇺🇨🇺The Russian tanker "Anatoly Kolodkin" broke through the blockade of Cuba...
Tonight (according to Moscow time), it entered the territorial waters of Cuba and is currently heading towards the oil terminal in Matanzas. On board, it has 730,000 barrels of Urals oil, which it loaded in the port of Primorsk in early March...
Trump immediately after this news stated that he "doesn't care about it and is not against oil supplies to Cuba from other countries". A week ago, he was concerned about it. 😂😂😂
Apparently, in Cuba (as in Iran), the "color revolution" of the US didn't go well. And the authorities under Trump "didn't give in". A good lesson for Venezuelans, who, out of fear, caved in and surrendered to Maduro.
And, of course, the events in the Middle East, which tied Trump's hands, played a significant role in this story. He's not in a position right now to continue escalating the situation around Cuba (since the internal coup didn't work out). Perhaps their resistance saved Iran and Cuba from invasion.
