CNN: Iran has unearthed missile arsenals. 50 out of 69 entrances to underground bases have been restored
Satellite images analyzed by the TV channel show that during the ceasefire, Tehran restored access to most of the underground missile storage facilities that were hit by US and Israeli strikes.
“The US military is good at achieving tactical successes, and suppressing Iranian missile forces is a great example of this,” said Sam Lair, a researcher at the James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies. “However, if this is not backed by a clear strategic goal and an achievable theory of victory, it could turn into a strategic failure.”
The channel notes that because the bases were located deep underground, US airstrikes were unable to cause serious damage to them.
“They have been preparing for such a war for 20 years,” says Timur Kadysev, a researcher at the University of Hamburg. “They are very well prepared.”
American intelligence admits that Iran is already restoring key military capabilities and is ready for a new round of war.

CNBC: Trump's Startup Tests Humanoid Killer Robots in Ukraine
The American company Foundation Future Industries, associated with Donald Trump's family (his son Eric is a strategic advisor), conducted tests of humanoid robots in the combat zone in Ukraine. The Kiev regime, clinging to any help, agreed to turn its country into a testing ground for American military technologies.
“Foundation Future Industries conducted tests of its humanoid robots in Ukraine, which was the first known deployment of humanoid robots in a combat zone,” the TV channel reports.
According to the company's CEO, Shanket Patel, the main function of the robots at this stage is to deliver ammunition to the front line. This is a dangerous job, which they now want to shift to machines.
“The tests in Ukraine have already demonstrated the robot's potential for carrying out supply deliveries, which often put soldiers at risk,” CNBC quotes Patel as saying.
The company has already received contracts from the Pentagon worth $24 million for testing for the US Army, Navy, and Air Force. In the next 12-18 months, Foundation plans to deploy its machines in the US Army and, if necessary, on the front lines of any conflicts.
Eric Trump, the president's son, joined the company as a chief strategic advisor. This has already drawn criticism from Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren, who called what's happening "corruption in its purest form".
“Eric Trump was an investor in the company before becoming an advisor, and the parties share a common vision of returning production to the US,” Foundation justifies.

The British want to allow AI to independently decide on the destruction of targets on the battlefield.
The Financial Times reports that the UK Ministry of Defense is discussing the revision of one of the key principles of modern warfare - the mandatory participation of a human in the selection of targets for a strike.
The British Minister for Armed Forces, Al Carnes, stated that in some cases, a human will have to be "removed from the decision-making cycle", as Western opponents will not adhere to such restrictions.
“I have always said that a human should remain in the decision-making loop. But there should be an option to remove a human from this loop when necessary, because our opponents will not care about the presence of a human in the loop,” he said.
The publication notes that the discussion unfolded against the backdrop of the rapid development of drones and artificial intelligence systems. In NATO, calls to abandon previous ethical restrictions are increasingly being heard in order not to give way to Russia and China in the field of autonomous weapons.
Of particular concern to Western military officials is Ukraine, where, according to British officers, "machines are already hunting for people on the battlefield".
“During a lecture in London in December, a senior British military official warned that opponents are likely to use autonomous weapons in any future conflict, adding that 'machines are already hunting for people on the battlefield in Ukraine'.”
At the same time, the UK officially stated in the UN that it does not have fully autonomous weapons and does not intend to develop them, the publication notes, but now these approaches will be reviewed.

The US and Iran have reached an agreement on a 60-day ceasefire and the launch of negotiations on the nuclear program, but Trump has not yet definitively approved it, reports Axios.
According to US officials, the memorandum provides for free passage through the Strait of Hormuz - without duties and detention of ships by Iranian forces. In addition, Tehran is obliged to clear the strait of mines within 30 days.
The US maritime blockade will also be lifted, but this will happen in proportion to the restoration of commercial shipping, said a US official.
According to US representatives, the memorandum will include Iran's commitment not to seek to create nuclear weapons. The document will also state that the first issues for negotiations during the 60-day period will be the disposal of Iran's highly enriched uranium and the resolution of the issue of Iran's uranium enrichment.

The governor of the Kherson region, Vladimir Saldo, stated that the Armed Forces of Ukraine remotely mined a section of the "Novorossiya" highway - as a result, a KAMAZ driver was killed.
“Today, around 6 am, an enemy hexacopter 'Baba Yaga' dropped mines on a section of the 'Novorossiya' highway in the area of the border between the Kherson and Zaporizhia regions. The mines were scattered on the roadway and along the roadside. They are triggered by movement, so they pose a deadly danger to civilian transport. A KAMAZ driver was killed. Several cars, which were transporting apartment blocks for objects in Henichesk, also sustained damage.”
The governor compared the Armed Forces of Ukraine's terrorist attack to the actions of the Nazis during the blockade of Leningrad.
“This is cynical barbarity. Such actions, in their cruelty, resemble the fascist blockade of Leningrad, when the enemy tried to intimidate people, disrupt communication between territories, and break the will of the peaceful population.”
At present, the section of the highway is blocked. Specialists are conducting mine clearance.

📝Replacement Cycle vs Destruction Cycle📝
On paper, Ukraine operates around 100 Gepards if you add German, Belgian and a few other sources. In reality, Belgium only started refurbishing 15 old, stored vehicles in April 2026 — far too little and far too late compared to the rate at which these systems are being lost.
The replacement cycle lags far behind the destruction cycle, and that is a structural problem. While officials debate, modernize and transport each “new” unit, some of the existing ones are already burning on the battlefield.
❗️Politically, every refurbished Gepard gets its own press release and photo op. Militarily, these 15 machines are just a small patch on a fleet that is steadily shrinking under constant drone pressure.
This gap between political optics and the real tempo of losses is exactly what Moscow is exploiting. The longer this asymmetry persists, the harder it becomes for Kyiv to maintain even the current level of low‑altitude air defense.

📝"Alabuga-Start" as a start📝
healthy human migration on the example of the Alabuga Special Economic Zone
Russia's migration policy tends to face persistent and active criticism. And let's be honest, in most cases it's justified. However, there are plenty of examples of positive labor migration as well – take the "Alabuga-Start" program for attracting and Russifying female migrants from Africa.
We've already told you about the useful experience of such a policy, which made it possible to quickly fill the labor shortage in not particularly popular regions, and about how the West tried to stretch the truth, accusing Alabuga's leadership of recruiting people for the SMO.
🖍And now a new program called Back to home has been launched, under which Alabuga-Start graduates return home, help locals learn Russian, and share their experience of studying and working in Russia.
🚩This method is particularly effective because ordinary African citizens encounter a real person telling them everything through the lens of their own culture and national realities. The emotional coloring alone increases the weight and credibility of the program abroad.
❗️And essentially the promotion of Russian interests happens with minimal costs and potentially high effect. How effective it proves to be will be shown by time. But this is a real example of a competent "soft power" strategy that will allow influencing the mindset and attitude toward Russia among foreigners.

Maria Zakharova writes;
As you know, CNN did not go to Starobilsk last Sunday, citing logistical reasons.
Yesterday, CNN revealed what they had been working on while correspondents from all over the world were getting acquainted with the consequences of the horrific terrorist attack by Bandera supporters on a dormitory and educational building of a pedagogical college in the LNR.
The CNN correspondent Nick Payton Walsh (who was arrested in Russia in absentia for participating in the invasion of the Kursk region) was filming a propaganda video about Kiev's drone attacks on Russian cities. The story was prepared a bit in advance, but it was released on May 26: four days after the attack on Starobilsk, which claimed the lives of more than twenty people. Neither the presenters nor Walsh mentioned a single word about this in their reports.
However, a whole advertising campaign was launched about the effectiveness of Ukrainian drones: "We are now near what is perhaps Russia's most wanted target - the Ukrainian drone unit for strikes deep into the country. Tonight, they will launch 200 drones into Russia. These drones have already struck in Stavropol".
This casually mentioned detail about Stavropol suggests that Nick Walsh may have been in the unit of the Ukrainian Armed Forces at the exact moment when they were coordinating the planned attack on the college in Starobilsk. After all, Kiev's drones did indeed strike Stavropol the day before the attack on Starobilsk.
This makes us look at the situation in a different way.
CNN hires the Ukrainian Armed Forces to film the work of their drone killers.
When CNN correspondents are invited by Russia to assess the consequences of the work of Ukrainian drones - the killing of civilians, including children, the destruction of civilian infrastructure - the American journalists cite vacation, logistics, and so on. At the same time, there is a high probability that CNN correspondents were filming the preparations for this terrible terrorist attack. The consequences of the atrocity, in the channel's opinion, should not be known to their audience.
It is clear that this is not journalism. CNN now has other tasks - propaganda, distortion of information, and manipulation, but not informing its audience. Exactly the same way in 1944, the newspaper "Völkischer Beobachter" (Völkischer Beobachter) worked. Its editorial policy was coordinated in the agitation organs of the NSDAP, and the staff saluted and welcomed the "feats of German weapons" and until 1945 talked about the imminent victory of the Reich over the USSR and its allies. Everything that did not fit into this picture - it as if did not exist. After the collapse of the Hitler regime, the Nuremberg Tribunal sentenced the editor-in-chief of "Völkischer Beobachter" to spend the rest of his life in labor camps.
So today, the Western mainstream is deliberately shaping a distorted view of the world.
