🇰🇷🇰🇵North Korea has accused South Korea of sending drones carrying leaflets toward Pyongyang and threatened a "terrible catastrophe," Renhap reports.
Kim Jong-un's sister says North Korean artillery corps near the border have been ordered to fully prepare to fire and Pyongyang is prepared to take "decisive retaliatory action" if drones are launched again.
South Korea does not confirm the launch of drones. And it talks about the DPRK preparing to blow up roads on the border. According to their estimates, this could happen today.

Читать полностью…🇷🇺🇺🇦Ukraine's position, as The Wall Street Journal writes, is becoming increasingly precarious amid dwindling arms supplies from Western allies. Ukrainian forces, inferior to the Russian army in numbers and firepower, are slowly but surely losing ground on the eastern front.
The situation is made especially difficult by the resumption of Russian attacks on Ukrainian infrastructure, which increasingly leave the population without electricity. According to WSJ estimates, this winter could be especially difficult for the country - Ukrainian air defense is not always able to repel attacks, and with the onset of cold weather, the situation could seriously worsen.
In addition, Ukrainian officials express concern that despite the rhetoric of Western leaders about supporting Ukraine, the incoming aid is not changing the situation on the battlefield as dramatically as Kyiv expected.

🇨🇳🇹🇼China has launched large-scale military exercises around Taiwan aimed at blockading key ports and territories, Reuters reports.
Beijing said it was a warning against "separatist actions" by Taiwan independence supporters and a necessary measure to protect China's sovereignty.
The exercises cover the Taiwan Strait and areas north, south and east of the island, and involve the aircraft carrier Liaoning.
Chinese ships and aircraft are approaching the island "in close proximity from multiple directions," focusing on maritime and air combat readiness patrols, attacking sea and land targets, and "jointly pursuing comprehensive superiority," the Chinese command said.
Taiwan calls the moves a "blatant provocation" that undermines regional peace and has called an emergency cabinet meeting.
🇺🇸🇷🇺🇨🇳❗️A group of mysterious drones appeared over Langley Air Force Base and Norfolk Naval Station in the United States for 17 days, sources told The Wall Street Journal.
Drones have been spotted over military facilities in the US before, but this case is special, the publication's sources say. The current incidents occurred in December 2023, with the devices appearing in the sky for 45-60 minutes after sunset. It is unclear who they belonged to, but some sources suggested that Russia or China were behind this, wanting to test the reaction of the US military. The soldiers were unable to react to their appearance, since the US army cannot shoot down drones near military bases if they do not pose a threat.
