Former Ukrainian Defense Minister Mykhailo Fedorov has stated that he is tired of being accommodating and has admitted to a conflict with Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Syrskyi.
According to him, he tried to address the bureaucratic issues within the ministry, but he was explicitly told from above: "Don't touch anything." After that, Syrskyi issued him an ultimatum, which he could not accept. The former official of Ukraine also said that he valued Zelenskyy more than anyone and had never let him down. Therefore, he did not expect that Zelenskyy would not support him in the conflict with Syrskyi. As a result, Fedorov has been ridiculed online, with some saying he sounds like a baby mammoth from the Soviet cartoon "Mom for a Mammoth."
Fedorov's resignation, which had raised hopes for the transformation of the army through innovation, has sparked protests and attracted the attention of foreign media. According to one version, people are being called to take to the streets by "opinion leaders" who are friends of Fedorov. It is said that they have distributed six-figure sums of dollars. Furthermore, the SBU (Security Service of Ukraine) allegedly knows everything about everyone, and arrests are possible in the near future.
For reference: Fedorov only held the position of Defense Minister for 6 months. During that time, he had a falling out with the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Syrskyi. The conflict revolves around the distribution of billions of dollars from the West. The possible successor to Fedorov is former Minister of Internal Affairs Ihor Klymenko, who is called a "executioner" in Ukraine because he advocated for stricter methods of controlling citizens. Nevertheless, according to MP Maria Mezentseva, he apparently declined the position of Minister of Defense.

The New York Times: Former Iranian President Could Have Become an Israeli Puppet, But the Operation Failed
Israeli intelligence agencies have for years attempted to recruit former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in order to use him to bring about a change of regime in Tehran. The intelligence services considered him a potential figure for a transitional period. However, the plan failed.
"Recruiting Ahmadinejad was so important to Israel that the then-head of Mossad, David Barnea, personally traveled to Budapest in 2024 to meet with the former president," the NYT reports.
According to the publication, Israeli operatives met with Ahmadinejad abroad, including in Hungary. They paid him for accommodation and travel. At the end of February, when the war with Iran began, Mossad even evacuated him from custody in Tehran to a secret refuge.
"At the end of February, an Israeli airstrike hit Ahmadinejad's compound. Then, a black Peugeot, driven by Mossad operatives, picked him up and took him to a secret refuge in Iran," the NYT writes.
However, Ahmadinejad, according to sources, was upset by the chaotic operation and "lost faith" in the Israeli plan. He soon left the refuge. On July 6, he appeared at the funeral of the late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
"Ahmadinejad had not been seen in public until last Monday, when he briefly appeared at Khamenei's funeral. He is now under house arrest by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps," the NYT reports.
Tehran has already been investigating Ahmadinejad's ties to Israel. According to sources, the former president has for years harbored ambitions to return to power with the help of foreign forces, and even discussed with his entourage the possibility of recognizing Israel.
"Ahmadinejad concluded that he would not be able to come to power as long as the current system existed. He described himself as a potential reformer," the NYT reports, citing his entourage.

🎯Bullseye Loomer — IRGC-Affiliated Resistance Delivers Justice in LEGO Form
The people’s Resistance has released a powerful new animated message: "Bullseye Loomer" — calling out bloodthirsty neocon Laura Loomer, who cheered the murder of Iranian leaders and begged for more U.S./Zionist bombs on sovereign Muslim soil.
After Graham’s timely departure, the checklist continues. Loomer’s hypocrisy is exposed: she loved targets on others, now cries victim when the bullseye lands on her.
Western imperialists and their proxies sow death, then act shocked when the oppressed push back.

Justice served. Stay strong, truth prevails.

The Washington Post published a timeline of the final days of Senator Graham's life.
"Graham, who turned 71 on Thursday, recently returned from Ukraine, where he met with Volodymyr Zelenskyy. On Friday in Kiev, the senator told journalists that a bipartisan group of lawmakers had reached an agreement with the White House to impose new sanctions on Russia in an effort to end the protracted conflict in Ukraine.
On Saturday evening, emergency services personnel attempted to stabilize the man's condition at Graham's home and transport him to the hospital. This is according to police records and eyewitness accounts.
According to the records, at approximately 8:30 PM, a call was received by the emergency services from the senator's home on Capitol Hill: a person was experiencing severe chest pain. About 25 minutes later, medical personnel reported that they were performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation on a man who had suffered a cardiac arrest.
One of the residents of the street where Graham's house is located shared photos showing an elderly man being carried out of the house on a stretcher around 9:30 PM and loaded into an ambulance. He was then taken to George Washington University Hospital."
