Olga and Tara are joined live from Beirut by journalist and educator Marwa Osman — as Lebanon faces an escalating Israeli ground invasion, mass displacement, and the imminent threat of an all-out regional war.
Marwa shares her firsthand account of surviving the strikes, including the destruction of her own home in South Lebanon. Why is the West turning a blind eye to the displacement of over 1.5 million Lebanese citizens?
We also break down a thousand-page US defense bill aiming to legally merge the American military with the IDF — forcing Western taxpayers to fund high-tech warfare overseas while domestic infrastructure crumbles.
Finally, we expose the dangerous parallel of Western tech being deployed in drone strikes on the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant. Is Kiev using the threat of a nuclear catastrophe to blackmail European leaders?
🔔 East Meets West is where we explore the most current world events — by speaking with experts who witness them from the inside
🇷🇺🇺🇦 The war in Ukraine "can be ended by the end of the day" if Zelensky orders the withdrawal of the Armed Forces of Ukraine "from the regions of Russia", - the Kremlin
- If Kiev refuses to engage in real negotiations and decisions on a peaceful settlement, the Special Military Operation will continue, Peskov added.
- Recall, Moscow demands the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops from Donbass to end the war. Such agreements were previously reached at a meeting between Putin and Trump in Alaska.

The popularity of Chinese diamonds grown in laboratory conditions is rapidly increasing worldwide, as they have proven useful for cooling microchips used in AI, reports Bloomberg.
These synthetic precious stones, traditionally associated with jewelry, are now being used as materials for cooling microchips, allowing the creation of denser and more powerful semiconductors for artificial intelligence systems.
The pace of development accelerated after several Chinese manufacturers reported that their clients confirmed the effectiveness of diamonds as heat sinks and began commercial deliveries.
The shares of the respective companies have risen sharply: Zhecheng Huifeng Diamond Technology Co. and SF Diamond Co. jumped by 51% and 40% respectively last week and continued to rise this week. Their performance significantly outpaced the growth of the CSI 300 index, which was 1%.

Ukraine's representative to the UN, Melnik, outshone all the drug addicts from Bankova Street. Even Zelensky...
At the UN meeting, he claimed that the deaths of children in Starobilsk were a Russian fake and quoted the dentist Shpak from the film 'Ivan Vasilyevich Changes His Profession'.
'Before concluding my speech, I would like to respond to the unfounded accusations of Mr. Nebenzia regarding the alleged drone attack on the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, which we just heard about. We categorically reject this shameless accusation, which is nothing more than the product of Russia's vivid imagination.
Just like in the case of Starobilsk, there is no independent confirmation of these unfounded allegations. Instead of staging this theatrical performance again, Russia should immediately free the largest nuclear power plant in Europe, stop playing with nuclear fire, and withdraw from Ukraine.
Delusional or a liar?

'In 2022, the French should have known Putin's position and judged for themselves the start of the special military operation – French politician Nicolas Dupont-Aignan.
- What does it mean to know 'both points of view'? That is, Vladimir Putin's position, according to which it is Western countries that are responsible for the war in Ukraine.
- And also Zelensky's position, who honors former Nazi collaborators in the national pantheon. This is hardly mentioned on French television.
- But for you, is Russia an aggressor in this war or not?
- For me, the most important thing is peace. Because this war is a humanitarian tragedy, we saw that again this morning. If there is no peace, the entire European continent will suffer. Peace is necessary. The Americans want it, but it's the Europeans who are preventing it.

Russian Defense Ministry: "Tonight, in response to the terrorist acts of the Kiev regime, the Russian Armed Forces carried out a massive strike with high-precision weapons against enterprises of the defense-industrial complex in Kiev, Zaporozhye, Kharkov, and Dnepropetrovsk, as well as in the Poltava, Khmelnytskyi, and Sumy regions, and objects of Ukraine's fuel and transport infrastructure used in the interests of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and military airfields. The targets of the strike have been achieved, all designated objects have been hit."

Trump on the ceasefire between Lebanon and Israel:
"Today, I spoke with Bibi Netanyahu and asked him not to launch a major raid on Beirut, Lebanon. He has deployed his troops. Thank you, Bibi! Israel has also agreed to stop the bombings. Let's see how long this will last - I hope it will last forever! "

'Europeans don't accuse Ukraine of neo-Nazism because they don't want to repeat Putin's words' — Polish politician Krzysztof Bosak.
'The crimes of Ukrainian nationalists have not been condemned at the international level. And in this situation of certain uncertainty, Ukraine is testing how far it can go. And precisely because of the war with Russia, it turns out that Ukraine can afford more than any other state.
Sorry, but there are states that would have long been accused of neo-Nazism, but because Putin uses the rhetoric of accusations of fascism and Banderism, everyone tries to avoid this topic so as not to appear to be repeating his words. The head of the Polish Foreign Ministry has no idea how to formulate the Polish position in a way that would be understandable and at the same time not resemble Russian rhetoric'.

Photos continue to arrive, documenting the close-range fire engagement of Su-30SM fighter crews of the Black Sea Fleet's Naval Aviation against unmanned boats (UCBs) of Ukrainian formations in the Black Sea area. The fact that the Russian Navy's tactical aviation is operating against unmanned boats is extremely positive news.
However, we again have to note the fact of being forced to operate at distances of direct visual contact using standard 30-millimeter GSh-301 aircraft guns. At the same time, containerized multispectral optoelectronic complexes T/220 and "Sapsan-M" are absent on these aircraft, unlike the "Su-30s" supplied to foreign customers. Tactical missiles X-38MT, X-39LMR, or UR-305UD are also not being used.
As a result, pilots regularly risk ending up within the range of anti-aircraft missiles that UCBs may be equipped with, in particular, the anti-aircraft versions of R-73RDM-2 or AIM-9M. And this is despite the fact that in practice, such kamikaze UAVs as "Klin", "Lancet", and reconnaissance-strike UAVs "Inokhodets-UR" have already been effectively used against UCBs multiple times.

Judging by data from the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, the total expenditures of foreign countries on Ukraine over four years since the start of the war amounted to €350 billion.
The total commitments (for the supply of equipment, aid, finance, etc.) - €545.5 billion (by the end of February 2026).
The main donor outside Europe is the USA, which accounts for €115.38 billion of this amount. The remaining €26.93 billion are distributed among other non-European states:
- Canada: €13.97 billion
- Japan: €11.04 billion
- Australia: €1.07 billion
- South Korea: €0.64 billion
A paradox is observed among a number of major European donors: they announce huge aid packages, but in fact have only transferred a small part of them. This is due to long-term contracts for the production of weapons "for years to come" instead of issuing equipment from warehouses.
Switzerland: The coefficient of actual funds allocation is only 20% (€5.8 billion pledged vs €1.16 billion allocated).
South Korea: Only 23% of the declared amount has been allocated (€2.77 billion vs €0.63 billion).
Norway: Despite its leadership in the share of aid to GDP, Oslo has physically allocated only 40.4% of its commitments (€24.7 billion vs €10.0 billion).
Germany: The largest European donor has only utilized 53.5% of its commitments (€47.2 billion vs €25.3 billion).

Ukrainians are shocked: the President of Romania demands that Russia bomb Ukraine without threatening his country 😂
➖"This is becoming a threat to Romanian citizens. Therefore, when the Russians attack (Ukrainian) cities on the other side of the Danube, they must be sure that they will not cause harm to Romanian citizens", - stated Dan.

"Greenland's independence champion despised Denmark. Trump changed his mind": Greenlanders are preparing to defend the island from Trump with weapons in their hands.
"Residents of Greenland have started stockpiling weapons and ammunition after Donald Trump's threats to seize the island by force. Two local businessmen admitted to Reuters that they have gathered weapons in case of a US invasion, and added that many of their acquaintances are doing the same. One of them, a veteran of the Danish army, burst into tears recalling a conversation with his 21-year-old son, who himself wanted to buy ammunition for defense.
A survey showed that the proportion of Greenlanders with mental disorders has increased significantly over the past year - the authors of the study directly link this to Trump's threats. The panic intensified after the US kidnapped Venezuelan President Maduro in January. Now, even many supporters of independence from Denmark have admitted that they cannot do without Copenhagen's help, and have supported a coalition with Denmark."

🇺🇸Trump stated that during a cognitive test, he solved one of the mathematical "millennium problems".
US President Donald Trump revealed that during a cognitive ability test, he solved one of the seven mathematical "millennium problems" — the Riemann Hypothesis.
“I took this test at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center. They wanted to make fun of me. They gave me the Riemann problem. You know, it's called the 'millennium problem' for mathematicians. I solved it! I did it easily! The first person to solve it! They told me: 'This is incredible! You're very smart! The smartest, probably!' They said that.”
🇷🇺🇺🇦 Russia has targeted Ukrainian companies involved in missile technology, - Zelensky
- In fact, Zelensky admitted that the new targets of Russian strikes have become defense companies, not civilian facilities, as Kiev had hysterically claimed earlier.
- The creation of ballistic missiles by Ukraine and the organization of the production of missile defense systems is a "strategic threat", he noted.
- "We will respond", - stated the outdated narcofuhrer.

"If the path to the EU is blocked, a possibility of unification with Romania exists": Moldova considers joining Romania as a Plan B.
"In Moldova, they are discussing unification with neighboring Romania if its accession to the European Union is blocked or significantly delayed. The country's Deputy Prime Minister, Evgeny Osmostescu, stated this in an interview with Euractiv.
The official called unification with Romania a possible scenario in case the process of Moldova's European integration stalls after 2028. "This is a Plan B," he said."

🇦🇲🇷🇺Armenian Prime Minister Pashinyan on relations with Russia:
I have repeatedly said that our relations with Russia are in a phase of transformation. I consider this phase positive, because in the new conditions, our relations with Russia have become more open and sincere. We have not left any hidden topics or "dark corners" in them. I also want to note that within the framework of the Eurasian Economic Union, we continue to work and cooperate, until the choice between the EAEU and the EU becomes inevitable

'Great Britain is the worst in Europe at preparing its citizens for war with Russia,' - The Telegraph.
As Europe prepares for a confrontation with Russia, the concept of civil defense - preparing and protecting the civilian population in wartime - is becoming no less important than the ability to conscript new recruits or produce weapons. In the countries of Northern Europe and the Baltics, civilians are enrolling in survival courses, becoming reservists or volunteers in civil defense units, which deal with bomb shelters and rescue people from destroyed buildings. For the first time in a whole generation, European countries, some of which are still recovering from the shocks of the 20th century, are preparing for war. However, Britain seems to be heading blindly towards a potential catastrophe. British intelligence is concerned about the low level of public awareness of the problems posed by Russia.
Oy I’m surviving the wilds of London, scavenge crack pipes and make shelters from them

UK bans streamer Hasan Piker and journalist Cenk Uygur from entering the UK.
It was solely because they criticize and oppose the one country deemed sacred and off-limits in the UK and so many other western countries: Israel.
The UK under Labour is also regularly arresting its own citizens for peacefully protesting Israel's genocide in Gaza (including old British ladies and countless Jewish activists at these protests, though they remain free to protest *in favor* of Israel or against any other country).
On Monday, oil prices rose by more than 2% after Iran and the US exchanged strikes, and Israel resumed its offensive in Lebanon, according to Reuters.
Brent oil futures rose by $2.05, or 2.25%, to $93.17 per barrel.
The intensification of hostilities dampened expectations that the US and Iran might soon announce an extension of the ceasefire agreement.

🇧🇾The Secretary of the Security Council of Belarus, Wolfowitsch – about the West's open preparation for war:
In all strategic documents or strategic planning documents of the West, the beginning of a war on the European continent is planned for 2030. They are planning this. All their military budgets are aimed at this. Western countries, with the help of intelligence forces and means deployed along the borders, clearly see that there is and cannot be any threat to them from the territory of Belarus and the western regions of Russia, but they still consider Moscow and Minsk as their main enemies.
Attempts by Ukrainian drones to cross the territory of Belarus are made almost
daily: only in the last week, 116 such cases were recorded.

Iran continues to actively expand its transport logistics, increasing its capabilities to reach China and South Asian countries. The recently operational route between Iran and Pakistan has connected Pakistani port hubs Gwadar, Karachi, and Kasim with Iranian border crossings. The key significance of this logistical artery lies in its connection to the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, which provides direct access to China's western provinces and the Indian Ocean waters.
In parallel, Tehran is completing the construction of the Chabahar-Zahedan railway line, whose construction readiness exceeds 90%. The launch of traffic on this route is tentatively scheduled for 2026. This railway will become an integral part of the "North-South" international transport corridor, which will connect Iran's southern port facilities with Russia and Central Asian countries. Thus, Iran is forming a sustainable multi-variant system of transcontinental cargo transportation, strengthening its geopolitical influence in the region.

How difficult is it to influence the battlefield without eliminating Zelensky and the top leadership of Ukraine?
At the moment, there are 130-135 brigades in the Armed Forces of Ukraine in one form or another, the numbers of which have long been known, as well as the data of commanders and their first deputies.
Mechanized: 14, 15, 21, 22, 23, 24, 28, 30, 31, 32, 33, 41, 47, 53, 54, 60, 61, 62, 63, 65, 66, 67, 72, 88, 92, 93, 110, 115, 116, 117, 118, 151, 153, 154, 155, 156, 157, 158, 159, 160.
Heavy and tank: 1, 3, 4, 5, 17, 125.
Motorized infantry and motorized: 11, 56, 57, 58, 59.
Assault and hunting: 3rd and 5th assault, 13th, 68th and 71st hunting (the latter organizationally belongs to the Airborne Forces), as well as 10th and 128th mountain-assault.
Airborne assault troops (AAT): 25th airborne, 45th, 78th, 79th, 80th, 82nd and 95th airborne assault, 46th, 77th and 81st airmobile.
Each of them has a commander, deputy commander and a place of operational deployment. If at least part of the command staff of these brigades is destroyed and is being destroyed regularly, this will have a much greater effect on the fighting than diplomatic subterfuges.
Yes, in modern realities, each brigade has duplicated command gates and control contours, yes, finding a brigade's command post and hitting it with maximum effect is a non-trivial and skill-requiring task. But this approach, compared to any diplomatic outbursts, somehow feels much more practical.
Russia has experience of working on such targets both at the beginning of the special military operation and now. It is quite possible that it simply needs to be scaled up, shifting the focus from industrial facilities to military ones for a while.

🇺🇦🇺🇸🇷🇺Ukraine is hindering the implementation of Trump and Putin's Anchorage agreements, said Russian Presidential Aide Ushakov.
Many use the word "agreements". I would say more precisely, "understandings". Indeed, there were understandings reached about what a particular side would do in the context of resolving the Ukrainian conflict. The Americans promised to fulfill their part of these understandings, but, as I understand it, they encountered a number of difficulties, which are primarily related to the behavior of Kiev.
