North America - United States🇺🇸: DOJ Informed Trump His Name Is in Epstein Files — WSJ
According to a bombshell report by The Wall Street Journal, U.S. President Donald Trump was informed by the Department of Justice in May 2025 that his name appears multiple times in the Epstein files. The notice came after Attorney General Pam Bondi and her deputy reviewed what she described as a “truckload” of documents tied to Epstein’s case.
Sources say Trump was told the mentions were based on unverified hearsay and that many other high-profile figures are also named. The records reportedly contain hundreds of names, some related to past social interactions with Epstein.

🎯 Proving Their Worth in Combat
Despite their improvized nature, FrankenSAMs have proven useful in defending against Shahed drones, cruise missiles, and even glide bombs like the UMPK-equipped FAB-250. Ukrainian reports credit them with helping to protect logistics hubs and critical infrastructure, particularly in Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk, and parts of the Donbas. While not replacements for modern Western systems, they provide a vital extra layer of coverage across Ukraine’s vast front.

🛠️ Born from Necessity
As Russian missile and drone attacks intensified in 2023, Ukraine’s Soviet-era air defenses began running low on interceptors. Western systems like NASAMS and Patriot arrived—but too few, too late. To fill the gap, Ukrainian engineers turned to improvisation. With foreign support, they began fusing NATO missile technology with older Soviet launchers, giving birth to what would become known as FrankenSAMs—ad-hoc air defense hybrids built from mismatched parts, necessity, and ingenuity.

Western Europe - Germany🇩🇪: Spiegel: Ukraine May Not Receive U.S. Patriots Until Spring 2026

⚡ Symbols of Survival and Innovation
Originally dismissed by many as desperate experiments, these systems have become symbols of Ukrainian adaptability—a reflection of a war fought not just with firepower, but with creativity. In a conflict defined by asymmetry, FrankenSAMs show how even outdated hardware can be reborn into something useful with the right tools, support, and will to resist.

🔧 A Hybrid of East and West
No two FrankenSAM systems are exactly alike. Some combine Soviet-era launchers (like the Pechora or Buk) with Western missiles, such as the RIM-7 Sea Sparrow and the AIM-9M Sidewinder. Others may link Ukrainian radars and targeting gear to NATO-supplied munitions or use adapted wiring and control systems to make formerly incompatible parts function together. While the exact configurations remain classified, multiple open-source videos and images confirm that such hybrids have entered operational use.
