1 THESSALONIANS 5:3-7
2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.

European Council-Council of the European Union
The presidency of the Council of the EU-A rotating presidency
The presidency of the Council rotates among the EU member states every six months. During this six-month period, the presidency chairs meetings at every level in the Council, helping to ensure the continuity of the EU's work in the Council.
Three presidencies working together-Member states holding the presidency work together closely in groups of three, called 'trios'. This system was introduced by the Lisbon Treaty in 2009. The trio sets long-term goals and prepares a common agenda determining the topics and major issues that will be addressed by the Council over an 18-month period. On the basis of this programme, each of the three countries prepares its own more detailed six-month programme.The current trio is made up of the presidencies of Spain, Belgium and Hungary.
The Belgian presidency of the Council of the EU: 1 January - 30 June 2024
Under the motto ‘Protect. Strengthen. Prepare.’ Belgium will focus on six thematic areas for its work during the presidency:
defending rule of law, democracy, and unity
strengthening our competitiveness
pursuing a green and just transition
reinforcing our social and health agenda
protecting people and borders
promoting a global Europe
Belgium is taking on the role of the president of the Council in a challenging time. It is a real honour, but also a responsibility. The evolution of the European Union has never been a straight line. And it is often in the most difficult moments that the greatest strides forward have been made.Alexander De Croo, Prime Minister of Belgium, presentation of the Belgian presidency's political priorities, 8 December 2023
Belgium will be assuming the rotating presidency of the Council for the 13th time; continuing the work of the previous presidency (Spain) before handing over to the next presidency (Hungary).For the Council presidency there is no election: every country takes its turn. This means that every member state – however big or small – holds the presidency of the Council. Their turn comes every 13-and-a half years.Discover the main priorities and highlights of the most recent presidencies in the timeline of Council of the EU presidencies.What does holding the presidency of the Council of the EU mean?The system of rotating presidencies goes back to the very beginning of the European integration. Every six months, a member state becomes the president of the Council of the EU and helps ensure the smooth running of the EU legislative process.Curious to know more about what does holding the presidency of the Council of the EU mean?The tasks of the presidency-The presidency is responsible for driving forward the Council's work on EU legislation, ensuring the continuity of the EU agenda, orderly legislative processes and cooperation among member states. To do this, the presidency must act as an honest and neutral broker.The presidency has two main tasks:Planning and chairing meetings in the Council and its preparatory bodiesThe presidency chairs meetings of the different Council configurations (with the exception of the Foreign Affairs Council) and the Council's preparatory bodies, which include permanent committees such as the Permanent Representatives Committee (Coreper), and working parties and committees dealing with very specific subjects.The presidency ensures that discussions are conducted properly and that the Council's rules of procedure and working methods are correctly applied.It also organises various formal and informal meetings in Brussels and in the country of the rotating presidency.Representing the Council in relations with the other EU institutions-The presidency represents the Council in relations with the other EU institutions, particularly with the Commission and the European Parliament. Its role is to try and reach agreement on legislative files through trilogues, informal negotiation meetings and Conciliation Committee meetings.The presidency works in close coordination with:the President of the European Council the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy.It supports their work and may sometimes be requested to perform certain duties for the high representative, such as representing the Foreign Affairs Council before the European Parliament or chairing the Foreign Affairs Council when it discusses common commercial policy issues.Council presidencies up to 2025-Belgium: January-June 2024-Hungary: July-December 2024

European Union elections kick off across bloc, with hard-right gains expected-Polls open in the Netherlands ahead of four days of voting in the 27 member states following the election of Geert Wilders’ anti-Islam Party for Freedom in the national vote-By Mike Corder Today, 11:52 am-JUN 6,24
THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — Polls opened in the Netherlands on Thursday to kick off four days of voting in European Union parliamentary elections across the 27 member states that are expected to deliver gains for the hard right.Estonians can cast their ballots across six days that started Monday, but the Netherlands is the only EU country to start its single-day vote so early, followed by Ireland on Friday and the rest of the EU nations over the weekend. Europe-wide results will be announced Sunday night after all member states have completed voting.The Dutch voting comes six months after Geert Wilders’ far-right Party for Freedom sent shockwaves around Europe by becoming the biggest party in the Dutch national parliament. Polling suggests Wilders will build on that popularity and set the tone for much of the bloc.Since the last EU elections five years ago, populist, far-right and extremist parties are leading governments in three EU nations, are part of governing coalitions in several others, and appear to have surging public support across the continent.The EU elections are the world’s second-biggest exercise in democracy behind the election in India, and the stakes are high.Almost 400 million voters will be electing 720 members of the European Parliament from beyond the Arctic Circle to the edges of Africa and Asia. They will have an impact on issues ranging from global climate policies and defense to migration and geopolitical relations with China and the United States.Since the last European elections in 2019, war has broken out on the fringe of the bloc following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, a country that desperately wants to join the EU.A founding member, the Netherlands was long unwavering in its support of EU policies. Research from the Clingendael think tank, though, suggests dissatisfaction with the EU among Dutch people, and that while most believe that the Netherlands should remain in the bloc, many also believe it should be more self-sufficient.While many voters are predicted to lurch to the right, the Christian Democrat-dominated European People’s Party led by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, is currently the EU legislature’s biggest bloc and is bound to be the coalition kingmaker when the dust settles on the election results.In the Netherlands, Wilders’s PVV could build on its domestic success and surge, possibly overtaking the combined Labor Party and Green Left. Labor topped the Dutch EU Parliament election in 2019 with 19% of the vote for six seats while the Greens took 11% and three seats. Wilders’ party at the time only managed 3.5% and no seats.
Wilders and one of his likely coalition partners, the Farmer Citizen Movement, are popular among farmers in the Netherlands who have staged regular protests to call for an easing of EU legislation they say is crippling their livelihoods.
Wilders has in the past called for the Netherlands to leave the EU as Britain did, but his party’s manifesto for the election starting Thursday makes no mention of a so-called Nexit. Instead, it urges voters to back the PVV so it can change the EU from within, similar to the plans of many other hard-right parties across the bloc.The number of members elected in each country depends on the size of the population. It ranges from six for Malta, Luxembourg and Cyprus to 96 for Germany. In 2019, Europeans elected 751 lawmakers. Following the United Kingdom’s departure from the EU in 2020, the number of MEPs fell to 705. Some of the 73 seats previously held by British MEPs had been redistributed to other member states.The lawmakers, known as Members of the European Parliament, or MEPs, can vote on a wide range of legislation laws relating to climate, banking rules, agriculture, fisheries, security and justice. They also vote on the EU budget, which is crucial to the implementation of European policies, including, for instance, the aid delivered to Ukraine.After the election, MEPs will elect their president at the first plenary session, from July 16-19. Then, most likely in September, they will nominate the president of the European Commission, following a proposal made by the member states. In 2019, von der Leyen narrowly won a vote to become the first woman to head the institution.
Palestinian arrested in France on charges of financing West Bank terrorism-Unnamed suspect is accused of preparing and financing terror attacks against Israelis in the West Bank in early 2023-By AFP Today, 12:27 pmJUN 6,24
PARIS, France — A Palestinian man has been charged in France with financing terrorism and complicity in attempted murder over suspected links to attacks against Israelis in the West Bank in 2023, a source close to the case said Thursday.He is being prosecuted for alleged terrorist conspiracy with a view to preparing attacks against people, financing terrorism and complicity in attempted murder, the National Anti-Terrorism Prosecutor’s Office said.The man, who is in his mid-30s, was placed in pre-trial detention.The suspect is believed to be a member of the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, the armed wing of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah party.He is suspected of being linked to attacks against Israelis in the West Bank in early 2023 and of sending money to the Brigades, according to the source close to the case.The investigation was carried out as part of an inquiry opened by the anti-terrorist prosecutor’s office in December 2023.According to the source, the investigation was launched after Israel reported the matter to the French authorities.The man has lived in France for several years, the source said.His lawyer, Emanuel de Dinechin, declined to comment when reached by AFP.
WEEK OF DANIEL 9:27 WE KNOW ITS 7 YRS
The King of Jerusalem[1] was the supreme ruler of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, the Crusader state founded by Christian princes in 1099 when the First Crusade took the city.Godfrey of Bouillon, the first ruler of the Kingdom of Jerusalem, himself refused the title of king, and instead chose the title "Defender of the Holy Sepulchre". Thus, the title of king was only introduced for his successor, King Baldwin I in 1100. The city of Jerusalem was lost in 1187, but the Kingdom of Jerusalem survived (also known as the "Second Kingdom of Jerusalem"), moving its capital to Acre in 1191. The city of Jerusalem was re-captured in the Sixth Crusade, during 1229–39 and 1241–44. The Kingdom of Jerusalem was finally dissolved with the fall of Acre and the end of the Crusades in the Holy Land in 1291.After the Crusader States ceased to exist, the title of King of Jerusalem was claimed by a number of European noble houses descended from the kings of Cyprus or the kings of Naples. The (purely ceremonial) title of King of Jerusalem is currently used by Felipe VI of Spain. It was claimed by Otto von Habsburg as Habsburg pretender, and by the kings of Italy until 1946.

22 And the children (2 NATIONS IN HER-ISRAEL-ARABS) struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went
to enquire of the LORD.

DR SAMUEL DOCTORIANS VISION - SECOND ANGEL: MIDDLE EAST
Then I saw that the second angel had a sickle in his hand, such as is used in harvesting.The second angel said: "Harvest time has come in Israel and the countries all the way to Iran."I saw those countries in a few split seconds."All of Turkey and those [inaudible] countries that have refused me and refused my message of love shall hate each other and kill one another."I saw the angel raise the sickle and come down on all the Middle East countries. I saw Iran, Persia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, all of Georgia - Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, all of Asia Minor - full of blood. I saw blood all over these countries. And I saw fire; Nuclear weapons used in many of those countries. Smoke rising from everywhere. Sudden destruction – men destroying one another. I heard these words:"Israel, Oh Israel, the great judgment has come." The angel said, "The chosen, the church, the remnant, shall be purified. The Spirit of God shall prepare the children of God."I saw fires rising to heaven.The angel said: "This is the final judgment. My church shall be purified, protected and ready for the final day. Men will die from thirst. Water shall be scarce all over the Middle East. Rivers shall dry up, and men will fight for water in those countries. "The angel showed me that the United Nations shall be broken in pieces because of the crisis in the Middle East. There shall be no more United Nations. The angel with the sickle shall reap the harvest.

China defence chief says Beijing ready to 'forcefully' stop Taiwan independence-By Jing Xuan TENG-Singapore (AFP) June 2, 2024
Chinese Defence Minister Dong Jun warned Sunday his military is ready to "forcefully" stop Taiwan independence but called for greater exchanges with the United States.The remarks at an annual security forum in Singapore followed the first substantive face-to-face talks in 18 months between the two countries' defence chiefs."We have always been open to exchanges and cooperation, but this requires both sides to meet each other halfway," Dong told the Shangri-La Dialogue where he met with US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Friday."We believe that we need more exchanges precisely because there are differences between our two militaries."Dong and Austin met for over an hour at the luxury hotel hosting the forum, which is attended by defence officials from around the world and in recent years has been seen as a barometer of US-China relations.After the meeting, Austin said that telephone conversations between US and Chinese military commanders would resume "in the coming months", while Beijing hailed the "stabilising" security relations between the countries.This year's Shangri-La Dialogue comes a week after China held military drills around self-ruled Taiwan and warned of war over the US-backed island following the inauguration of President Lai Ching-te, who Beijing has described as a "dangerous separatist"."The Chinese People's Liberation Army has always been an indestructible and powerful force in defence of the unification of the motherland, and it will act resolutely and forcefully at all times to curb the independence of Taiwan and to ensure that it never succeeds in its attempts," Dong told the forum on Sunday."Whoever dares to split Taiwan from China will be crushed to pieces and suffer his own destruction."On the South China Sea, which China claims almost entirely and where it has been involved in confrontations with Philippine vessels, Dong warned of "limits" to Beijing's restraint."China has maintained sufficient restraint in the face of rights infringements and provocation, but there are limits to this," Dong said.- Flashpoint disputes -President Joe Biden's administration and China have been stepping up communication to ease friction between the nuclear-armed rivals, with Secretary of State Antony Blinken visiting Beijing and Shanghai last month.A key focus has been the resumption of military-to-military dialogue, which is seen as critical to preventing flashpoint disputes from spinning out of control.China scrapped military communications with the United States in 2022 in response to then-US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan.Tensions between Washington and Beijing were further stoked by issues including an alleged Chinese spy balloon that was shot down over US airspace, a meeting between Taiwan's then-president Tsai Ing-wen and Pelosi's successor Kevin McCarthy and American military aid for Taipei.China is also furious over the United States' deepening defence ties in the Asia-Pacific, particularly with the Philippines, and its regular deployment of warships and fighter jets in the Taiwan Strait and South China Sea.Beijing views this as part of a decades-long US effort to contain it.The two sides agreed after a summit between Chinese leader Xi Jinping and Biden last November to restart high-level military talks, including over military operations near Taiwan, Japan and in the South China Sea.
Iran calls UN nuclear watchdog resolution 'hasty, unwise'-Tehran, June 5 (AFP) Jun 05, 2024
Iran's mission to the United Nations called a censure motion adopted Wednesday by the international nuclear watchdog a "hasty and unwise" decision, ISNA news agency reported."The decision of the Western countries was hasty and unwise and will undoubtedly have a destructive effect on the process of diplomatic interaction and constructive cooperation," ISNA quoted the mission as telling the Al-Monitor news website.

Identifying the deer’s plentiful source, they began to develop the unique scrapers in the same place. This is the earliest instance of a phenomenon that later spread throughout the world,” Litov said.The Mount Gerizim location, near Nablus, is especially important because numerous fallow deer bones were found there at an ancient altar site. As Gerizim is associated with the Israelite’s entry into the Land of Israel and is considered a sacred site by the local Samaritan community, “apparently, the Mountains of Samaria gained a prominent, or even sacred status as early as the Paleolithic period, and retained their unique cultural position for hundreds of thousands of years,” the researchers said.
Read the fine print: Russia’s nuclear weapon use policy-By David Holloway | March 10, 2022
The risk of nuclear war casts a dark shadow over the already-tragic events in Ukraine. On February 19, Vladimir Putin launched an exercise involving Russian strategic forces. On February 24—the day Putin invaded Ukraine—he warned that Russia would respond immediately to those who stood in its way, with consequences that “will be such as you have never seen in your entire history.” On February 27, he publicly ordered his minister of defense and chief of the general staff to transfer Russia’s “deterrence forces” to “special combat readiness.” Putin’s aim was evidently to deter outside intervention and to signal Russia’s determination to achieve its goals.But another, more troubling, aspect to Putin’s recent comments has received little or no attention. It has to do with the circumstances under which Russia might use nuclear weapons.In June 2020, Putin signed a decree—the Basic Principles of the Russian Federation’s State Policy in the Domain of Nuclear Deterrence—that specifies two conditions under which Russia would use nuclear weapons. The first is unsurprising: “The Russian Federation retains the right to use nuclear weapons in response to the use of nuclear weapons and other types of weapons of mass destruction against it and/or its allies…” But that sentence ends with an unusual statement: “… and also in the case of aggression against the Russian Federation with the use of conventional weapons, when the very existence of the state is put under threat” [emphasis added].In his February 24 speech, Putin echoed that unusual language to describe his Ukraine invasion. The United States, he claimed, was creating a hostile “anti-Russia” next to Russia and in Russia’s historic land. “For the United States and its allies, it is a policy of containing Russia, with obvious geopolitical dividends,” he said. “For our country, it is a matter of life and death, a matter of our historical future as a nation. This is not an exaggeration; this is a fact. It is not only a very real threat to our interests but to the very existence of our state and to its sovereignty” [emphasis added]. Putin has defined the current situation as one in which, in line with the principles of its deterrence policy, Russia retains the right to use nuclear weapons.Even in the face of Russian aggression, a nuclear 'Eurodeterrent' is still a bad ideaThis does not mean that Russia will use such weapons, and deterrence at the strategic level appears to be robust. At the tactical level, however, the situation is different. The 2018 US Nuclear Posture Review ascribed to Russia the view that “the threat of nuclear escalation or even first use of nuclear weapons would serve to de-escalate a conflict on terms favorable to Russia.” Russian military theorists have certainly discussed this idea of “escalating to de-escalate,” though whether it is a part of Russian doctrine is disputed among students of Russian strategy. “Escalating to de-escalate” in a war with NATO would run the serious risk of escalation rather than de-escalation. In a local war with a non-nuclear adversary, however, the small-scale tactical use of nuclear weapons might be a serious temptation, especially if the war were not going according to plan. In short, the impulse to escalate in a tight corner could be strong.There are two reasons for drawing attention to Putin’s recent words. First, in echoing the Basic Principles of Russian Federation’s State Policy in the Domain of Deterrence, Putin provides a frame of reference for his thinking about nuclear weapon use. This, in turn, provides context for assessing the risk that he will escalate to the use of nuclear weapons.Second, in a period of high tension, a miscalculation could have catastrophic consequences, as Russia’s recent decisions arguably show. World leaders should do as much as possible to dissuade Putin from using of nuclear weapons, not so much by the threat of retaliation in kind, since that could lead to dangerous escalation. Rather they should prepare the ground for a massive political response to a potential decision Putin might make to cross the nuclear threshold.
Leaked Russian military files reveal criteria for nuclear strike on x Max Seddon and Chris Cook in London-February 28 2024
Vladimir Putin’s forces have rehearsed using tactical nuclear weapons at an early stage of conflict with a major world power, according to leaked Russian military files that include training scenarios for an invasion by China.The classified papers, seen by the Financial Times, describe a threshold for using tactical nuclear weapons that is lower than Russia has ever publicly admitted, according to experts who reviewed and verified the documents.The cache consists of 29 secret Russian military files drawn up between 2008 and 2014, including scenarios for war-gaming and presentations for naval officers, which discuss operating principles for the use of nuclear weapons.Criteria for a potential nuclear response range from an enemy incursion on Russian territory to more specific triggers, such as the destruction of 20 per cent of Russia’s strategic ballistic missile submarines.“This is the first time that we have seen documents like this reported in the public domain,” said Alexander Gabuev, director of the Carnegie Russia Eurasia Center in Berlin. “They show that the operational threshold for using nuclear weapons is pretty low if the desired result can’t be achieved through conventional means.”Russia’s tactical nuclear weapons, which can be delivered by land or sea-launched missiles or from aircraft, are designed for limited battlefield use in Europe and Asia, as opposed to the larger “strategic” weapons intended to target the US. Modern tactical warheads can still release significantly more energy than the weapons dropped on Nagasaki and Hiroshima in 1945.Although the files date back 10 years and more, experts claim they remain relevant to current Russian military doctrine. The documents were shown to the FT by western sources.The defensive plans expose deeply held suspicions of China among Moscow’s security elite even as Putin began forging an alliance with Beijing, which as early as 2001 included a nuclear no-first-strike agreement.In the years since, Russia and China have deepened their partnership, particularly since Xi Jinping took power in Beijing in 2012. The war in Ukraine has cemented Russia’s status as a junior partner in their relationship, with China throwing Moscow a vital economic lifeline to help stave off western sanctions.Yet even as the countries became closer, the training materials show Russia’s eastern military district was rehearsing multiple scenarios depicting a Chinese invasion.The exercises offer a rare insight into how Russia views its nuclear arsenal as a cornerstone of its defence policy — and how it trains forces to be able to carry out a nuclear first strike in some battlefield conditions.One exercise outlining a hypothetical attack by China notes that Russia, dubbed the “Northern Federation” for the purpose of the war game, could respond with a tactical nuclear strike in order to stop “the South” from advancing with a second wave of invading forces.“The order has been given by the commander-in-chief . . . to use nuclear weapons . . . in the event the enemy deploys second-echelon units and the South threatens to attack further in the direction of the main strike,” the document said.China’s foreign ministry denied there were any grounds for suspicion of Moscow. “The Treaty of Good-Neighborliness, Friendship and Cooperation between China and Russia has legally established the concept of eternal friendship and non-enmity between the two countries,” a spokesperson said. “The ‘threat theory’ has no market in China and Russia.”Putin’s spokesperson said on Wednesday: “The main thing is that the threshold for the use of nuclear weapons is absolutely transparent and is spelled out in the doctrine. As for the documents mentioned, we strongly doubt their authenticity.”A separate training presentation for naval officers, unrelated to the China war games, outlines broader criteria for a potential nuclear strike, including an enemy landing on Russian territory, the defeat of units responsible for securing border areas, or an imminent enemy attack using conventional weapons.The slides summarise the threshold as a combination of factors where losses suffered by Russian forces “would irrevocably lead to their failure to stop major enemy aggression”, a “critical situation for the state security of Russia”.Other potential conditions include the destruction of 20 per cent of Russia’s strategic ballistic missile submarines, 30 per cent of its nuclear-powered attack submarines, three or more cruisers, three airfields, or a simultaneous hit on main and reserve coastal command centres.Russia’s military is also expected to be able to use tactical nuclear weapons for a broad array of goals, including “containing states from using aggression […] or escalating military conflicts”, “stopping aggression”, preventing Russian forces from losing battles or territory, and making Russia’s navy “more effective”.Putin said last June that he felt “negatively” about using tactical nuclear strikes, but then boasted that Russia had a larger non-strategic arsenal than Nato countries. “Screw them, you know, as people say,” Putin said. The US has estimated Russia has at least 2,000 such weapons.Putin said last year that Russian nuclear doctrine allowed two possible thresholds for using nuclear weapons: retaliation against a first nuclear strike by an enemy, and if “the very existence of Russia as a state comes under threat even if conventional weapons are used”.But Putin himself added that neither criteria was likely to be met, and dismissed public calls from hardliners to lower the threshold.The materials are aimed at training Russian units for situations in which the country might want the ability to use nuclear weapons, said Jack Watling, a senior research fellow for land warfare at the Royal United Services Institute, rather than setting out a rule book for their use.“At this level, the requirement is for units to maintain — over the course of a conflict — the credible option for policymakers to employ nuclear weapons,” Watling added. “This would be a political decision.”While Moscow has drawn close to Beijing since the war games and moved forces from the east to Ukraine, it has continued to build up its eastern defences. “Russia is continuing to reinforce and exercise its nuclear-capable missiles in the Far East near its border with China,” said William Alberque, director of strategy, technology and arms control at the International Institute for Strategic Studies. “A lot of these systems only have the range to strike China.”Map of Russia showing locations of nuclear storage and Iskander brigades. Much of its nuclear capabilities remain in the east.Russia was still behaving in accordance with the “theory of use” of nuclear weapons set out in the documents, Alberque said. “We have not seen a fundamental rethink,” he said, adding that Russia is probably concerned that China may seek to take advantage of Moscow being distracted “to push the Russians out of Central Asia”.The documents reflect patterns seen in exercises the Russian military held regularly before and since Putin’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Alberque, who worked for Nato and the US defence department on arms control, pointed to examples of Russian exercises held in June and November last year using nuclear-capable Iskander missiles in two regions bordering China.While Russia’s president has the sole authority to launch a first nuclear strike, the low threshold for tactical nuclear use set out in the documents conforms with a doctrine some western observers refer to as “escalating to de-escalate”.Under this strategy a tactical weapon could be used to try to prevent Russia from becoming embroiled in a sprawling war, particularly one in which the US might intervene. Using what it calls “fear inducement”, Moscow would seek to end the conflict on its own terms by shocking the country’s adversary with the early use of a small nuclear weapon — or securing a settlement through the threat to do so.“They talk about ‘soberising’ their adversaries — knocking them out of the drunkenness of their early victories by introducing nuclear weapons,” said Alberque. “The best way that they think they can do that is to use what they call a lower ‘dosage’ of nuclear weapons at a much lower level of combat to prevent escalation.”Ukrainian officials argued that Putin’s nuclear threats convinced US and other allies not to arm Kyiv more decisively early in the conflict, when advanced Nato weaponry could have turned the tide in Ukraine’s favour.Alberque said Russia would probably have a higher threshold for using tactical nuclear weapons against Ukraine, which does not have its own nuclear capability or the ability to launch a ground invasion on the same scale, than against China or the US.Russian leaders believe that, whereas a nuclear strike against China or the US could be “soberising”, a nuclear strike on Ukraine would be likely to escalate the conflict and lead to direct intervention by the US or UK, Alberque said. “That is absolutely the last thing Putin wants.”Additional reporting by Joe Leahy in Beijing
Russian cyber criminal gang behind ransomware attack on London hospitals, says expert-Daniel Keane-Wed, June 5, 2024 at 5:09 a.m. EDT
London hospitals hit by major cyber attack impacting delivery of services-A Russian group of cyber criminals was behind the attack on pathology services affecting several major London hospitals, a cybersecurity expert has said.Ciaran Martin, former chief executive of the National Cyber Security Centre, said that a group of criminals named Qilin were likely to be behind the attack that devastated planned NHS services on Tuesday.Memos to NHS staff at King's College Hospital, Guy's and St Thomas' (including the Royal Brompton and the Evelina London Children's Hospital) and primary care services in the capital say pathology partner Synnovis was hit by a "major IT incident".Some procedures and operations have been cancelled or have been redirected to other NHS providers as hospital bosses continue to establish what work can be carried out safely.Mr Martin told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme: “These criminal groups, there are quite a few of them, they operate freely from within Russia, they give themselves high profile names, they've got websites on the so called dark web and this particular group has about a two-year history of attacking various organisations across the world.“They've done automotive companies, they've attacked the Big Issue here in the UK, they've attacked Australian courts. They're simply looking for money.”He said it is “unlikely” the Russian hackers would have known they would cause such serious primary healthcare disruption when they set out to do the attack.He added: “There are two types of ransomware attack. One is when they steal a load of data and they try and extort you into paying so that isn’t released, but this case is different. It’s the more serious type of ransomware where the system just doesn’t work.“So, if you’re working in healthcare in this trust, you’re just not getting those results so it’s actually seriously disruptive.“This type of ransomware has affected healthcare all over the world.“It’s particularly damaging in the United States, and where this type of cyber attack is different in terms of its impact from others, is that it does affect people’s healthcare. So it’s really one of the more serious that we’ve seen in this country.”In 2021, it was announced that SynLab would partner with the NHS to deliver pathology services at hospitals and GP services across south-east London.As well as serving King's, and Guys' and St Thomas', the pathology service also caters for South London and Maudsley and Oxleas NHS Foundation Trusts and a number of GP practices, clinics and other community services across the boroughs of Bromley, Lambeth and Southwark.A spokesman for NHS England London region said Monday’s attack was “having a significant impact” on the delivery of services at Guy’s and St Thomas’, King’s College Hospital NHS Foundation Trust and primary care services in south-east London.“We are working urgently to fully understand the impact of the incident with the support of the Government’s National Cyber Security Centre and our cyber operations team.”
Putin’s nuclear threats may hint at an electromagnetic pulse strike-Launching such a weapon over Ukraine would be lethal to Kyiv’s information warfare systems-Roger Pardo-Maurer-November 9 2022-FT
So far, Russia’s threats of escalation against Ukraine have been largely interpreted as a veiled reference to the use of traditional nuclear weapons. But there is another tool which Vladimir Putin may be considering: a tactical electromagnetic pulse, or EMP, strike. These weapons — designed to create a powerful pulse of energy which short-circuits electrical equipment such as computers, generators, satellites, radios, radar receivers and even traffic lights — could disable Ukraine’s military and civilian infrastructure at a stroke and leave the country without light, heat, communications or transport.EMP attacks have been amply explained, and even clamoured for, on Russian state TV talk shows. A Russian colonel has demonstrated on air, with maps and charts, how such a blast over the Baltic Sea might work. It may well be that Putin and his generals have been warning us about this possibility all along, with their enigmatic threats to unleash unspecified “military-technical measures”. A tactical nuclear weapon used to create an explosion would most likely be ineffective against the mobile, dispersed combination of guerrilla and conventional warfare that Ukrainians are deploying to reclaim their territory. But the use of a nuclear weapon for electromagnetic warfare is a different matter. The signature of this type of attack would not be a fireball and mushroom cloud but a weird electric blue medusa orb pulsing directly overhead, followed by silence. At that altitude, the sound will not carry.A relatively small nuclear EMP, easily deployed at high altitude by Russia’s hypersonic Zircon cruise missiles, might not destroy any buildings or kill anybody. But it could permanently disable electrical circuits over thousands of square miles of Ukrainian territory. Virtually all the defence equipment deployed by Nato allies to Ukraine — such as radios, GPS navigation, and aerial drones — are dependent on electronics, if not for operations, then for deployment, maintenance and integration. The lingering electromagnetic effects of a strike could destroy 90 per cent of the satellites over the afflicted zone within three months. However, it is likely that Russian information operations on the ground would also be affected.The US and its allies are by no means oblivious to the dangers of an EMP, and most military equipment has a degree of inbuilt defence against this eventuality. But a strike would create a new battlespace that negates the superiority of our information systems. We have not war-gamed this properly.In Kherson, for instance, a tactical EMP could disable the systems that operate the region’s dams, clog highways and bridges with miles of disabled vehicles and leave the civilian population struggling for food and heat. In the aftermath of a successful EMP strike, Ukraine would have to pause fighting to restock its ruined arsenal. Putin could meanwhile rebuild and resupply his forces and seize the newly depopulated areas during a spring offensive.What is perhaps most concerning is that Russia and Nato have such different approaches to these weapons. Under Russian military doctrine, EMP strikes are a branch of information, cyber and electronic warfare rather than nuclear warfare. This lowers the bar and may render EMPs even more tempting to Putin’s beleaguered generals.So, what next? First, we must warn Russia that an EMP strike against Ukraine — even if it is localised — would cross the nuclear threshold and trigger a collective defence response from Nato. The unpredictable effects of spillover on the earth’s atmosphere, the environment, satellites and downwind populations should suffice as a rationale for invoking Article Five (the alliance’s collective defence clause).Second, we should help the Ukrainian military prepare. An EMP strike is survivable. We should support them in conducting live EMP drills with the participation of the civilian authorities. The Ukrainian people need to be educated about how to mitigate and overcome such an attack, including by stocking up on analogue radios, flashlights and batteries. Preparation, fortitude, ingenuity and self-reliance are already qualities with which Ukrainians have distinguished themselves in this war.Finally, we must rethink our objectives. If Putin is indeed contemplating the use of a tactical EMP, then what is at stake is not just Ukraine’s liberty but the very future of warfare. If we yield to the Kremlin’s nuclear blackmail, there is a risk that other countries will follow its lead: China and North Korea already have EMP capabilities. The situation in Ukraine offers a keyhole glimpse to a potentially more dangerous and uncertain future. We cannot afford to lose this fight.

DR SAMUEL DOCTORIANS VISION - SECOND ANGEL: MIDDLE EAST
Then I saw that the second angel had a sickle in his hand, such as is used in harvesting.The second angel said: "Harvest time has come in Israel and the countries all the way to Iran."I saw those countries in a few split seconds."All of Turkey and those [inaudible] countries that have refused me and refused my message of love shall hate each other and kill one another."I saw the angel raise the sickle and come down on all the Middle East countries. I saw Iran, Persia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, all of Georgia - Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, all of Asia Minor - full of blood. I saw blood all over these countries. And I saw fire; Nuclear weapons used in many of those countries. Smoke rising from everywhere. Sudden destruction – men destroying one another. I heard these words:"Israel, Oh Israel, the great judgment has come." The angel said, "The chosen, the church, the remnant, shall be purified. The Spirit of God shall prepare the children of God."I saw fires rising to heaven.The angel said: "This is the final judgment. My church shall be purified, protected and ready for the final day. Men will die from thirst. Water shall be scarce all over the Middle East. Rivers shall dry up, and men will fight for water in those countries."The angel showed me that the United Nations shall be broken in pieces because of the crisis in the Middle East. There shall be no more United Nations. The angel with the sickle shall reap the harvest.

Putin threatens to arm countries that could hit Western targets-By Karim TALBI
Saint Petersburg (AFP) June 5, 2024-Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday criticised the West's delivery of long-range weapons to Ukraine, arguing Moscow could arm other countries with similar weapons to attack Western targets.The comment -- which Putin made at a rare press conference with foreign news outlets -- came after several Western countries including the United States gave Ukraine the green light to strike targets inside Russia, a move Moscow has called a grave miscalculation."If someone thinks it is possible to supply such weapons to a warzone to attack our territory and create problems for us, why don't we have the right to supply weapons of the same class to regions of the world where there will be strikes on sensitive facilities of those (Western) countries," Putin said."That is, the response can be asymmetric. We will think about it," he told reporters.But the 71-year-old Kremlin chief dismissed as "bollocks" suggestions Russia planned to attack NATO members."There is no need to look for some imperial ambitions of ours. There are none," he said.Putin warned that Western arms deliveries to Ukraine were "a very negative step", saying that donors were "controlling" the weapons.The Russian leader singled out Germany for particular criticism, saying that when the first German-supplied tanks "appeared on Ukrainian soil, it provoked a moral and ethical shock in Russia" because of the legacy of World War II.Referring to German authorities, he said: "When they say that there will be more missiles which will hit targets on Russian territory, this definitively destroys Russian-German relations."- 'Irrecoverable losses' -Sitting opposite representatives from news outlets including AFP, Putin repeated that his country "did not start the war against Ukraine", instead blaming a pro-Western revolution in 2014."Everyone thinks that Russia started the war in Ukraine. I would like to emphasise that nobody in the West, in Europe, wants to remember how this tragedy started," Putin said.He declined to give the number of Russia's battlefield losses in the more than two-year conflict, saying only that Ukraine's were five times higher."I can tell you that as a rule, no one talks about it," Putin rebuffed, when asked why Russia had not yet disclosed a figure."If we talk about irrecoverable losses, the ratio is one to five," he said.The issue of military casualties is extremely sensitive in Russia, where all criticism of the conflict is banned and "spreading false information" about the army carries a maximum 15 year jail sentence.When asked about the killing of AFP video journalist Arman Soldin in Ukraine last year, likely as a result of Russian rocket fire, Putin indicated Moscow was ready to help investigate."We will do everything in our power," he said."We are ready to do this work. I do not know how it could be done in practice since this person died in a warzone."- 'Burned to the ground' -Putin was also probed about what a victory for former US President Donald Trump or incumbent Joe Biden would mean for US-Russia relations -- an issue the Russian leader shrugged off."By and large there's no difference," he said.However he called Trump's recent criminal charges for business fraud politically motivated, arguing his conviction "burned" the idea that Washington was a leading democracy."It is obvious all over the world that the prosecution of Trump... is simply the utilisation of the judicial system during an internal political struggle," Putin said."Their supposed leadership in the sphere of democracy is being burned to the ground," the Russian leader added.Trump became the first former US head of state ever convicted of a crime last week after a New York jury found him guilty of 34 felony charges in a hush money case.Trump, who faces an election in November that could see him return to the White House, has praised Putin as a "smart guy".Putin also said Russia and the United States were in "constant contact" over a possible prisoner exchange that would free jailed US journalist Evan Gershkovich who was arrested on espionage charges last year."The relevant services in the US and Russia are in constant contact with one another and of course they will decide only on the basis of reciprocity," Putin said.
Soldier named as Warrant Officer Zeed Mazarib, 34-IDF strikes school in central Gaza where it says dozens of terrorists were gathered-20-30 members of Hamas and Islamic Jihad were gathered at UNRWA school in Nuseirat; soldier killed amid battle against terror operatives trying to infiltrate into Israel from Rafah-By Emanuel Fabian-Today, 12:50 pmUpdated at 1:47 pm-JUN 6,24
The Israel Defense Forces carried out an airstrike on what it said was a compound used by dozens of Hamas fighters inside a United Nations school in central Gaza before dawn on Thursday, as separately, an Israeli soldier was killed while battling terror operatives who attempted to infiltrate into Israel from the Strip’s south.The soldier slain in the border clash was named as Warrant Officer Zeed Mazarib, 34, a tracker in the Gaza Division’s Southern Brigade, from the northern Bedouin-majority city of Zarzir.In the strike, the IDF said it took extensive precautions to reduce harm to civilians in the “precise strike” on the compound embedded within a UNRWA school in Nuseirat, where some 20-30 terrorists, some of whom participated in the October 7 onslaught, were gathered.Palestinian civilians displaced by the war were also sheltering at the school.The Hamas-run government media office claimed at least 27 people were killed in what it termed the Israeli “massacre.” UNRWA communications director Juliette Touma told Reuters that the number of those reported killed in the Israeli offensive on the Nuseirat school is between 35 and 45, but it still cannot confirm the number at this stage, she added. It was not immediately clear how many of those killed were members of terror groups.The IDF said the compound was used by members of Hamas’s elite Nukhba force who took part in the terror group’s October 7 massacre in Israel, in which some 1,200 were killed and 251 were taken hostage.The army said the terrorists, along with members of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group, “directed terror attacks from the area of the school, while exploiting it as a civilian location and as shelter.”According to the military, the members of the terror groups were struck while gathered in three classrooms, separate from an area where civilians were sheltering.“The strike eliminated terrorists who had planned to carry out terror attacks and advance imminent terror schemes against our forces,” the IDF said, adding that “many steps were taken before the strike to minimize the risk of harm to uninvolved people” — including analyzing aerial footage and using precise intelligence.The strike had been postponed twice as the military said it worked to fine-tune the plan to avoid harming civilians, according to information seen by The Times of Israel.Israel has repeatedly accused Hamas of using schools, UN offices and other civilian infrastructure in the Strip, including where civilians are sheltering, for terror activity.Hours after the strike, the military said it killed three terrorists who attempted to cross into Israel from the Rafah area in the southern Gaza Strip. One soldier, Mazarib, was killed amid the exchange.The attempted infiltration began at around 4 a.m., when soldiers monitoring surveillance cameras spotted suspicious movement amid foggy weather, according to an initial IDF probe.Troops of the Desert Reconnaissance Battalion — a unit under the Gaza Division’s Southern Brigade, mostly made up of Bedouin soldiers — were dispatched to the scene, in Gaza, just across from the Israeli border communities of Kerem Shalom and Holit, to search for the suspects.At around 5 a.m., the soldiers came under fire by the cell, around 400 meters from the Israeli border. The soldiers had returned fire at the terrorists, and in the exchange, Mazarib was killed.Moments later, two of the gunmen were killed in a drone strike, and a short time after that, a third was killed by tank shelling, the IDF said.The cell was armed with assault rifles and RPGs, according to the probe.A military source said the IDF was investigating whether there was a fourth terrorist who may have fled the scene. The IDF said no suspects crossed the barrier into Israel amid the incident.The IDF was also investigating how the gunmen reached the border area, where they were detected.Also Thursday, the Bislamach Brigade — the IDF’s School for Infantry Corps Professions and Squad Commanders in peacetime — was withdrawn from southern Gaza’s Rafah after a week and a half of operations.The IDF said the brigade would now prepare for additional operations.This week, troops of the Bislamach Brigade discovered a tunnel shaft in a child’s bedroom, the military said.The IDF said the troops also discovered a cache of weapons, including explosive devices stored inside bags bearing the United Nations logo.The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says more than 36,000 people in the Strip have been killed or are presumed dead in the fighting so far. Of these, some 24,000 fatalities have been identified at hospitals or through self-reporting by families, with the rest of the figure based on Hamas “media sources.” The tolls, which cannot be verified, include some 15,000 terror operatives Israel says it has killed in battle. Israel also says it killed some 1,000 terrorists inside Israel on October 7.The IDF has said 295 soldiers have been killed during the ground offensive against Hamas and amid operations along the Gaza border. A civilian Defense Ministry contractor has also been killed in the Strip.Agencies contributed to this report.
Western arms deliveries to Ukraine are 'very dangerous step': Putin-by AFP Staff Writers
Saint Petersburg (AFP) June 5, 2024-Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday warned that Western arms deliveries to Ukraine were "a very dangerous step", especially if donors are "controlling" use of the weapons."Delivering arms to a warzone is always bad. Even more so if those who are delivering are not just delivering weapons but also controlling them. This is a very serious and very dangerous step," Putin told reporters.Several countries, including Germany and the United States, have in recent weeks given the green light for Ukraine to use Western-supplied weapons to strike targets inside Russia in response to a new offensive launched by Moscow in northeast Ukraine last month.Putin singled out Germany, saying that when the first German-supplied tanks "appeared on Ukrainian soil, it provoked a moral and ethical shock in Russia" because of the legacy of World War II.Referring to German authorities, he said: "When they say that there will be more missiles which will hit targets on Russian territory, this definitively destroys Russian-German relations."Putin repeated that his country "did not start the war against Ukraine", instead blaming a pro-Western revolution in 2014 which was followed by Russia's annexation of Crimea and a Moscow-backed separatist rebellion in the east of the country."Everyone thinks that Russia started the war in Ukraine. I would like to emphasise that nobody in the West, in Europe, wants to remember how this tragedy started," Putin said.
Putin says Russia has no 'imperial' ambitions, does not plan to attack NATO-by AFP Staff Writers
Saint Petersburg (AFP) June 5, 2024-President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday told a meeting of foreign news outlets that Moscow harbours no "imperial ambitions" and dismissed as "bollocks" the idea that Russia could attack NATO."There is no need to look for some imperial ambitions of ours. There are none," Putin said in answer to a question from AFP about the presence of Soviet and Russian imperial flags at the headquarters of Russian energy giant Gazprom where the meeting took place."There is no need to look for something that is not there," he said, adding: "Don't make up an image of Russia as an enemy. You will only harm yourselves.""They've come up with this idea that Russia wants to attack NATO. Have you lost your mind? Are you as thick as two short planks? Who made this up? It's nonsense, it's bollocks," Putin told reporters.Russia denied for months that it was preparing a military offensive in Ukraine before launching the assault on February 24, 2022, accusing Western powers of trying to use their Ukrainian ally to harm Russia.Russia has also announced the annexation of five Ukrainian regions and several Russian officials, including Putin himself, have pointed out that these territories previously belonged to the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union.bur-kat/imm-Gazprom-EMPIRE COMPANY
Taiwan says US arms sale shows 'commitment to defence' against China-by AFP Staff Writers
Taipei (AFP) June 6, 2024-Taiwan thanked the United States on Thursday for approving the sale of equipment and parts for F-16 fighter jets, saying it would help the island defend itself against China.China claims Taiwan as part of its territory, and last month launched drills around the self-ruled island days after the inauguration of new President Lai Ching-te.The United States, a close partner of Taipei, on Wednesday approved two military sales to Taiwan worth approximately $300 million in total, mostly of spare and repair parts for the island's F-16 fighter jets.The sales approvals were announced in two statements from the US Defense Security Cooperation Agency, set up to provide assistance to the United States' allies and partners.The United States switched diplomatic recognition from Taipei to Beijing in 1979 but it has remained Taiwan's most important partner and biggest arms supplier, sparking repeated condemnations from China.Taiwan's defence ministry on Thursday expressed gratitude for the approval of the arms sale, which it expected to take effect in a month's time.It said the sale would help Taiwan "meet the needs of defence operations", and added: "Military intimidation will not contribute to regional peace and we call on the Chinese Communist Party to stop all kinds of irrational behaviours against Taiwan."The foreign ministry also welcomed the sale, saying in a post on X that "it showcases an unwavering commitment to our defence... Our dedication to maintaining peace & stability persists amid #China's escalating aggression."China has said it will never renounce the use of force to bring Taiwan under its control, and it maintains a near-daily military presence around the island -- sending in fighter jets, drones and naval vessels.China launched massive military drills around Taiwan last month, just three days after Lai's inauguration, during which he vowed to defend the island's sovereignty and democracy.China said the speech was akin to a "confession of Taiwan independence", and described its war games as a "punishment".

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Yemen’s Houthi rebels have unveiled a new, solid-fuel missile in their arsenal that resembles aspects of one earlier displayed by Iran that Tehran described as flying at hypersonic speeds.The rebels fired its new “Palestine” missile, complete with a warhead painted like a Palestinian keffiyeh checkered scarf, at the southern Gulf of Aqaba port of Eilat in Israel on Monday. The attack set off air raid sirens but caused no reported damage or injuries.The IDF said at the time that a surface-to-surface missile, fired “from the direction of the Red Sea,” was headed toward Israel, likely aimed for Eilat, when it was shot down using the advanced Arrow system.Footage released by the Houthis late Wednesday showed the Palestine being raised on what appeared to be a mobile launcher and rising quickly into the air with plumes of white smoke coming from its engine. White smoke is common with solid-fuel missiles.Solid-fuel missiles can be set up and fired faster than those containing liquid fuel. That’s a key concern for the Houthis as their missile launch sites have been repeatedly targeted by US and allied forces in recent months over the rebels’ attacks on shipping through the Red Sea corridor. One such strike hit the Houthis even before they were able to launch their missile.For their part, the Houthis described the Palestine as a “locally made” missile. However, the Houthis are not known to possess the ability to manufacture complicated missile and guidance systems locally in Yemen, the Arab world’s poorest country, which has been gripped by war since the rebels seized the capital, Sanaa, nearly a decade ago.The Houthis have, however, been repeatedly armed by Iran during the war despite a United Nations arms embargo. While Iran claims it doesn’t arm the Houthis, ships seized by the US and its allies have found Iranian weaponry, missile fuel and components on board.And here it is.

However, some design elements of the missile resemble other missiles developed by Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard. That includes one called the Fattah, or “Conqueror” in Farsi.Iran unveiled the missile last year and claimed it could reach Mach 15 — or 15 times the speed of sound. It also described the missile’s range as up to 1,400 kilometers (870 miles). That’s a little short of Eilat from Houthi-controlled areas of Yemen, but the missiles can be reconfigured to boost their range.In March, Russia’s state-run RIA Novosti news agency quoted an anonymous source claiming the Houthis had a hypersonic missile.“While we cannot say for sure what exact version the ‘Palestine’ corresponds to, we can say with high certainty that it is an advanced and precision-guided (Guard)-developed solid propellant missile provided by Iran,” wrote Fabian Hinz, a missile expert and research fellow at the International Institute for Strategic Studies.Iran’s mission to the United Nations did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the similarity between the Palestine and its missiles.Fattah missile is unveiled in a ceremony in Tehran, Iran, Tuesday, June 6, 2023.

(Hossein Zohrevand/Tasnim News Agency via AP)Hypersonic weapons, which fly at speeds higher than Mach 5, could pose crucial challenges to missile defense systems because of their speed and maneuverability.Ballistic missiles fly on a trajectory in which anti-missile systems like the US-made Patriot can anticipate and intercept them. The more irregular the missile’s flight path, such as a hypersonic missile with the ability to change directions, the more difficult it becomes to intercept.China is believed to be pursuing the weapons, as is America. Russia claims it has already used them.It remains unclear how well the Palestine maneuvers and at what speed it travels.
Yemen’s Houthis say they targeted three ships in Red Sea, Arabian Sea-The group’s military spokesman identifies the ships as Roza, Vantage Dream, and Maersk Seletar-By Reuters and ToI Staff Today, 10:49 am-JUN 6,24
Yemen’s Houthis conducted military operations targeting three vessels in the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea, the group’s military spokesperson Yahya Saree said on Wednesday.Houthi terrorists targeted two vessels in the Red Sea, Roza and Vantage Dream, with a number of missiles and drones, Saree said in a televised speech.The third ship, the US vessel Maersk Seletar, was targeted in the Arabian Sea with a number of drones, Saree said.The Houthi terrorist organization, which controls the most populous parts of Yemen and is aligned with Iran, has attacked ships off its coast for months, saying it is acting in solidarity with the Hamas terror group, which is also backed by Iran, as it fights Israel in Gaza. That war broke out on October 7 with a shock Hamas attack that killed some 1,200 people and saw 251 taken hostage to Gaza.The group has launched more than 50 attacks on shipping, killed three sailors, seized one vessel and sunk another since November, according to the US Maritime Administration.In response to the Houthi threat in the Red Sea, the US and the UK have launched strikes against the group since January, with the US regularly carrying out its own in the time since as well.The Houthis have also shot multiple missiles toward Israel, causing sirens in Eilat, and a Kan report on Monday said the group was training to invade Israel but needed a way to get there.
Analysis-Depleted Hamas switches to insurgent tactics in Gaza, posing steep challenge-Change from direct confrontation to ambushes and bomb attacks could prolong fighting for months with no ‘quick fix’ available, officials and analysts say-By Reuters and ToI Staff Today, 10:46 am-JUN 6,24
WASHINGTON — Hamas has seen about half its forces wiped out in eight months of war and is relying on hit-and-run insurgent tactics to frustrate Israel’s attempts to take control of Gaza, US and Israeli officials told Reuters.Hamas, the enclave’s ruling group, has been reduced to between 9,000 and 12,000 fighters, according to three senior US officials familiar with battlefield developments, down from American estimates of 20,000-25,000 before the conflict. By contrast, Israel says it has lost almost 300 troops in the Gaza campaign.Hamas fighters are now largely avoiding sustained skirmishes with Israeli forces closing in on the southernmost city of Rafah, instead relying on ambushes and improvised bombs to hit targets often behind enemy lines, one of the officials said.Several Gaza residents, including Wissam Ibrahim, said they too had observed a shift in tactics.“In earlier months, Hamas fighters would intercept, engage, and fire at Israeli troops as soon as they pushed into their territory,” Ibrahim told Reuters by phone. “But now, there is a notable shift in their mode of operations. They wait for them to deploy and then they start their ambushes and attacks.”The US officials, who requested anonymity to discuss sensitive matters, said such tactics could sustain a Hamas insurgency for months to come, aided by weapons smuggled into Gaza via tunnels and others repurposed from unexploded ordnance or captured from Israeli forces.This kind of protracted timeframe is echoed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s national security adviser who said last week the war could last until the end of 2024 at least.A Hamas spokesperson didn’t respond to requests for comment on its battlefield strategy.In a parallel propaganda drive, some of the group’s fighters are videotaping their ambushes of Israeli troops, before editing and posting them on Telegram and other social media apps.Lt. Col. (res.) Peter Lerner, a spokesperson for the Israel Defense Forces, told Reuters they were still some way from destroying Hamas, which he also said had lost roughly half of its fighting force.Lerner said the military was adapting to the group’s shift in tactics and acknowledged Israel couldn’t eliminate every Hamas fighter or destroy every Hamas tunnel.“There is never a goal to kill each and every last terrorist on the ground. That’s not a realistic goal,” he said. “Destroying Hamas as a governing authority is an achievable and attainable military objective,” he added.-Hamas leaders Sinwar and Deif-Netanyahu and his government are under pressure from Washington to agree to a ceasefire plan to end the war, which began on October 7 when Hamas led 3,000 terrorists to storm into southern Israel, killing more than 1,200 peopleand seizing 251 hostages.The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says at least 36,586 Palestinians have been killed and 83,074 injured. The figures cannot be verified and only some 24,000 fatalities have been identified at hospitals. Hamas does not distinguish between deaths of combatants and unarmed civilians, or between those killed by Israel and those killed by errant Palestinian rockets.The tolls include some 15,000 terror operatives Israel says it has killed in battle. Israel also says it killed some 1,000 terrorists inside Israel on October 7.There are about 7,000-8,000 Hamas fighters reportedly entrenched in Rafah, the last significant bastion of the group’s resistance, according to Israeli and US officials. Top leaders Yahya Sinwar, his brother Mohammed, and Sinwar’s second-in-command Mohammed Deif are still alive and believed to be hiding in tunnels with Israeli hostages, they said.The Palestinian group has shown the ability to withdraw rapidly after attacks, take cover, regroup, and pop up again in areas that Israel had believed to be cleared of Hamas operatives, a US administration official said.Lerner, the IDF spokesperson, agreed Israel faced a protracted battle to overcome Hamas, which has ruled the Gaza Strip since seizing the territory in 2007 from the Palestinian Authority in a bloody coup.“There is no quick fix after 17 years of them building their capabilities,” he said.Hamas has constructed a 500-kilometer (310-mile) subterranean city of tunnels over the years. The labyrinth, dubbed the Gaza metro by the Israeli military, is roughly half the length of the New York subway system. Equipped with water, power, and ventilation, it shelters Hamas leaders, command and control centers, and weapons and ammunition stores.The Israeli military said last week that it had taken control of the entire Gaza-Egypt land border to prevent weapons smuggling. About 20 tunnels used by Hamas to carry arms into Gaza were found within the zone, it added.Egypt’s State Information Service didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment on Israel’s claims of arms smuggling from the country. Egyptian officials have previously denied any such clandestine trade is taking place, saying they destroyed the tunnel networks leading to Gaza years ago.-Echoes of Fallujah insurgency-The Gaza incursion is Israel’s longest and fiercest conflict since it invaded Lebanon to oust the Palestinian Liberation Organization in 1982.Netanyahu has defied domestic and international calls to outline a postwar plan for the territory. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has warned that the absence of such a roadmap could trigger lawlessness in the enclave. War cabinet minister Benny Gantz has given Netanyahu until the end of the week to lay out such a plan or he will pull his National Unity party out of the government.One Arab official told Reuters that criminal gangs had already emerged in Gaza amid the power vacuum, seizing food deliveries and conducting armed robberies.The official and two other Arab government sources, who all requested anonymity to speak freely, said the IDF could face similar threats to those encountered by America in the city of Fallujah in 2004-2006 following the US-led invasion of Iraq.A broad insurgency in Fallujah swelled the ranks first of al-Qaeda and then Islamic State, miring Iraq in conflict and chaos from which it has yet to fully emerge two decades later.Washington and its Arab allies have said they are working on a post-conflict plan for Gaza that involves a time-bound, irreversible path to Palestinian statehood.When the plan, part of a “grand bargain” envisioned by the United States that aims to secure a normalizing of relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel, is complete, Washington aims to put it to Israel, the US officials said.A United Arab Emirates official with direct knowledge of the discussions said a Palestinian invitation was needed for countries to assist Gaza in an emergency operation, as well as an end to hostilities, full Israeli disengagement, and clarity on Gaza’s legal status, including control of borders.The emergency process could last a year and be potentially renewable for another year, according to the UAE official who said the aim was to stabilize the enclave rather than rebuild it.For reconstruction to begin, a more detailed roadmap towards a two-state solution was needed, he added, as well as serious and credible reform of the Palestinian Authority.How the United States aims to overcome Netanyahu’s repeated rejection of a two-state solution, which Riyadh says is a condition for normalizing ties, is unclear.David Schenker, a former US Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs, dismissed any suggestion of a clean IDF pullout from the Palestinian territory.“Israel says it’s going to maintain security control which means that it’s going to constantly fly drones over Gaza and they’re not going to be limited if they see Hamas re-emerging, they’re going to go back,” said Schenker, a senior fellow at the Washington Institute US-based think-tank.Gadi Eisenkot, a former Israeli military chief serving as an observer in Netanyahu’s war cabinet, has proposed an Egyptian-led international coalition as an alternative to Hamas rule in Gaza. Eisenkot, a member of Gantz’s National Unity party, has lost a son and nephew in the Gaza war.In a closed-door briefing last week to the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, he emphasized the complex nature of anti-militancy warfare.“This is a religious, nationalistic, social, and military struggle with no knockout blow but rather protracted warfare that will last many years,” he said.
Why Russia’s Latest Space Weapon Is So Dangerous-Bringing the nuclear element into space, be it a nuclear weapon or a nuclear-powered counterspace weapon, will have serious repercussions.By Rajeswari Pillai Rajagopalan-February 17, 2024
New information, though patchy, suggests that Russia is planning to put in orbit either a nuclear-powered military satellite or even a nuclear explosive device. The information was revealed through the U.S. Congress. The chair of the U.S. House Intelligence Committee, Representative Mike Turner (R-Ohio) in a statement on February 14 said that the “House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence has made available to all Members of Congress information concerning a serious national security threat.” He did not reveal any additional detail about the threat, but the statement said that he has requested President Joe Biden to declassify the information “so that Congress, the Administration, and our allies can openly discuss the actions necessary to respond to this threat.” Media reports noted that Turner was reportedly “referring to Russian effort to field a nuclear weapon in space that could take out satellites that serve as a crucial backbone for U.S. civilian communications, navigation, military operations and intelligence gathering.” The latest reporting indicate that Russia is developing an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) with a nuclear explosion. A media report citing three unnamed sources who are familiar with the U.S. intelligence told CNN that Russia is “trying to develop a nuclear space weapon that would destroy satellites by creating a massive energy wave when detonated, potentially crippling a vast swath of the commercial and government satellites that the world below depends on to talk on cell phones, pay bills, and surf the internet.” A nuclear EMP would destroy and make large swathe of orbital real estate unusable for several years due to all the debris from a large number of satellites destroyed by the EMP. Deploying such a weapon itself would be a major violation of the Russian commitments under the 1967 Outer Space Treaty (OST).Earlier, White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby clarified during a press briefing that Turner’s concern “is related to an anti-satellite capability that Russia is developing.” He also confirmed that it “is not an active capability that’s been deployed. And though Russia’s pursuit of this particular capability is troubling, there is no immediate threat to anyone’s safety.” According to Kirby, Biden, who has been briefed on this, has “directed a series of initial actions, including additional briefings to congressional leaders, direct diplomatic engagement with Russia, with our allies and our partners as well, and with other countries around the world who have interests at stake.” But declassifying information is done through a certain process and therefore, details may not be released publicly in the near future.Kirby said that the U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan is interacting with House leadership and committee chairs on the threat and the latest analysis of it. Similarly, Secretary of State Antony Blinken also told the media, “This is not an active capability, but it is a potential one that we’re taking very, very seriously. And I would expect that we’ll have more to say soon, in fact very soon, so stay tuned for that.” Meanwhile, Russia dismissed these claims, saying that the United States is playing “tricks” and that the report is a “malicious fabrication.” There is not a lot of confirmed information in the open, so we are dealing with many unknowns. As Jessica West, a space security analyst at Ploughshares Canada, pointed out in a tweet, “possible combination of nuclear (power) + space + weapons” does bring with it serious concerns. Many space security analysts contend that the threat is unlikely to be a nuclear warhead, but may possibly be a nuclear-powered device that can attack other satellites. Possibilities could include jammers, weapons to blind image sensors, and electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) that can all damage or destroy satellites. However, a Washington Post report, quoting two U.S. officials familiar with the intelligence, said that the Russian capability “is a nuclear-armed – not a nuclear-powered – weapon.” If so, this is an escalatory threshold that must not be crossed. The destruction such a weapon would bring about could make space inaccessible even in the medium term. Deployment of a nuclear explosive would of course break several of the Russian commitments to keeping space as a peaceful domain. This would be a significant violation of Russian obligations under the Outer Space Treaty of 1967, though this assumes that Russia cares about or considers the international ramifications of its actions. This would essentially mean killing of the Treaty that has, by and large, managed to maintain the sanctity of outer space as a peaceful domain. This is far more dangerous than any recent development, even in the context of states breaking unwritten moratoriums and norms that had prevailed for a long time. Breaking norms is easy, but getting states back to complying with those norms that they have violated is a lot harder. For example, if other major space powers followed Russia’s example, the situation may be difficult to recover. Breaking norms and setting in motion a new destructive activity would trigger reactions and responses that may lead to further escalation. To give a concrete example: The norm to not test ASAT weapons had prevailed since the mid-1980s, but was broken by China with its first successful ASAT test in January 2007. Another example is the norm to not interfere in each other’s satellite functioning, but this too has been repeatedly broken through any number of electronic and cyber warfare incidents. Instead of helping build the much-needed consensus for developing new rules of the road to regulate the kind of activities states engage in, Russia is busy breaking the existing norms, treaties, and other global measures. Bringing the nuclear element into space, be it a nuclear weapon or a nuclear-powered counterspace weapon, will have serious repercussions for space utilization. Russia’s own ability to use space will be hampered if it goes down this slippery path.

French sailors in Normandy jump from D-Day to drones-Omaha Beach, France, June 6 (AFP) Jun 06, 2024
Sergeant Artur felt "great pride" to storm ashore on Omaha Beach Tuesday alongside American troops in an exercise ahead of the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings, as his French marine infantry practise with the latest technology for modern conflicts."It's quite symbolic, as marines we're the successors of the 177 men of the first marine commando battalion," added Artur, who gave only his first name under French military rules for speaking to the media.But while the military honours the only French unit to make landfall on June 6, 1944, in the first step to liberating their country from Nazi occupation, current conflicts like Russia's invasion of Ukraine are also on their minds."This is a commemoration, but it's also a training exercise alongside our allies that allows us to plan and prepare together," said Major Johann.He is in charge of planning landing operations from the vast below-decks command centre on the French amphibious assault ship Mistral, holding station off the Normandy coast."France is lucky to be one of the only countries to have this capability, not many countries can these days," Johann noted."We'll never reproduce the Second World War model" when more than 150,000 Allied troops landed in Normandy, he added."But we work with the resources we have now... being able to train alongside our allies brings us the mass that we're currently missing."- 'Ship always ready' -NATO soldiers are already thinking about how to adapt to the changes to modern battlefields on show in Ukraine, like the intense use of drones making it near-impossible to hide major troop movements."We're trying to make combat faster and more fluid, avoiding concentrating our forces in one landing spot but rather spreading them out, so as to reunite on an objective further inland later on," Johann said.Artur, who leads "10 or so" of the soldiers who embark onto grey landing craft from the floating dock in the Mistral's lower decks, has "many more operators trained to use drones" small enough to fit in a backpack."We use them on every mission, whether it's fighting the drugs trade, to see what's going on on a ship before sending anyone aboard, and of course for scouting out beaches, to see if there's danger," the 26-year-old sergeant said.Two sleek helicopter drones weighing 150 kilograms (330 pounds) each are also tucked into the Mistral's echoing hangar deck alongside far larger piloted transport and attack aircraft."They're useful for expanding the sensor 'bubble' around the ship," said the vessel's commander Captain Olivier Roussille.But his main task remains "being able to deploy a combat company or even a brigade" from his 200-metre (670-foot), 22,000-tonne ship to shore.In Normandy, the Mistral's job goes beyond memorial ceremonies and training, as its crew keep the proceedings and visiting dignitaries -- including French President Emmanuel Macron, US leader Joe Biden and Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky -- safe."Whatever's going on, a military ship is always ready," Roussille said, casting his eyes over the bridge with its constantly updating radar screens overlooking the flight deck loaded with Tiger attack helicopters.

Tornadoes touch down across US, killing toddler in Michigan and injuring 5 in Maryland-Updated 11:06 PM EDT, June 5, 2024
LIVONIA, Mich. (AP) — A tornado killed a 2-year-old boy and injured his mother Wednesday when a tree fell on their house in suburban Detroit, while emergency workers in Maryland were responding to reports of collapsed structures with people trapped inside after a tornado there.Officials in Livonia, Michigan, said in a post on the city’s website that the quick-developing tornado struck several neighborhoods in the city on Wednesday afternoon.A massive tree was uprooted and fell onto the family’s house and through the roof, landing on a bed where the woman and her 2-year-old were sleeping, officials said. Crews worked for nearly an hour to remove the roof and parts of the tree and then lift the tree to get the victims out.The toddler was pronounced dead at the scene, officials said. The mother was transported to a local hospital in critical condition.A 2-week-old sibling who was in a crib in a separate room was not injured but taken to a hospital for an evaluation, Livonia Fire Department Chief Robert Jennison told WDIV-TV.“This is a terrible tragedy for our community,” Mayor Maureen Miller Brosnan said in the statement. “Our hearts are broken, too, and we send our deepest sympathies.”The city of Livonia activates warning sirens based on notifications from the National Weather Service or tornado reports, officials said. However, Livonia Emergency Preparedness Director Brian Kahn said in the statement that the city did not receive any advance warning from the agency or others.A representative from the weather service called it a spin-up storm that didn’t show up on their radars in enough time to issue a warning, according to city officials.The National Weather Service in Detroit confirmed on the social platform X Wednesday night that an EF1 tornado with a peak wind speed of 95 mph (153 kmh) moved through Livonia. The agency said the twister traveled a path spanning over 5 miles (8 kilometers), uprooting and damaging trees and damaging some houses.In Maryland, emergency workers responded to reports that people were trapped inside structures that collapsed after a tornado was spotted in the area during rounds of strong storms Wednesday night.A tornado was spotted in a suburban area of Montgomery County northwest of Washington, the National Weather Service said in a social media post warning people in the area to take cover.There were reports of three collapsed structures in Gaithersburg with people trapped inside, Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service spokesperson Pete Piringer said.Piringer said the most significant damage occurred when a large tree fell on a single-family house, leaving five people injured, including one with traumatic injuries. He said they were all transported to a hospital.Local television footage showed large downed trees that damaged houses when they fell.David Pazos, Montgomery County Fire and Rescue assistant chief, said there were a lot of power outages.“We don’t know what people’s needs are, so we’re having to go door to door to assess whether they need fire and rescue services or need relocation because of damage to their homes,” he said.Tornado warnings were still being issued throughout the state and in Delaware on Wednesday night.___This story has corrected to show that the Livonia fire chief is Robert Jennison, not Robert Johnson.
World's most powerful rocket Starship set for next launch-By Chandan KHANNA
Boca Chica And Medford Colonia, United States (AFP) June 6, 2024-Starship, SpaceX's massive prototype rocket that may one day send humans to Mars, is poised for its next flight on Thursday.It will be the fourth test for the most powerful launch system ever built, vital to NASA's plans for landing astronauts on the Moon later this decade and to SpaceX CEO's Elon Musk's hopes of one day colonizing the Red Planet.A two-hour liftoff window from the company's Starbase in Boca Chica, Texas opens at 7:00 am local time (1200 GMT). Weather conditions look favorable, and the Federal Aviation Administration has given its green light.Three previous attempts have ended in Starship's fiery destruction, all part of what the company says is an acceptable cost in its rapid trial-and-error approach to development."The fourth flight test turns our focus from achieving orbit to demonstrating the ability to return and reuse Starship and Super Heavy," SpaceX said in a statement.Super Heavy is the booster, while Starship refers to both the upper stage and the two stages combined.The flight path will be similar to the third test, which took place in March and saw Starship fly halfway around the globe before it was eventually lost as it re-entered the atmosphere over the Indian Ocean, 49 minutes into the mission.Since then SpaceX says it has made several software and hardware upgrades and hopes to achieve a soft splashdown for the booster stage in the Gulf of Mexico, and a "controlled entry" for the upper stage.Designed to eventually be fully reusable, Starship stands 397 feet (121 meters) tall with both stages combined -- 90 feet taller than the Statue of Liberty.Its Super Heavy booster produces 16.7 million pounds (74.3 Meganewtons) of thrust, almost double that of the world's second most powerful rocket, NASA's Space Launch System -- though the latter is now certified, while Starship is still under development.SpaceX's strategy of carrying out tests in the real world rather than in labs has paid off in the past.Its Falcon 9 rockets have come to be workhorses for NASA and the commercial sector, its Dragon capsule sends astronauts and cargo to the International Space Station, and its Starlink internet satellite constellation now covers dozens of countries.But the clock is ticking for SpaceX to be ready for NASA's planned return of astronauts to the Moon in 2026, using a modified Starship as the lander vehicle.To accomplish this, SpaceX will need to first place a Starship in orbit, then refuel it with multiple "Starship tankers" for its onward journey -- a complex engineering feat that has never before been accomplished.At least one SpaceX fan has grown tired of waiting.

Britain, France and Germany late on Monday submitted a resolution to the UN nuclear watchdog's board, censuring Iran over its lack of cooperation with the agency despite US opposition, two diplomats said.It was the latest of numerous diplomatic manoeuvres by Western powers who fear Iran might be seeking to develop a nuclear weapon -- a claim the Islamic Republic has always denied."The text has been formally tabled," one diplomatic source told AFP, with a second confirming the information.The move to submit a motion against Iran was driven by an "urgency to react to the gravity of the situation", diplomats told AFP earlier.The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) says Iran is the only non-nuclear weapon state to enrich uranium to the high level of 60 percent, while it keeps accumulating large uranium stockpiles.Uranium enriched to 60 percent is close to the levels of 90 percent needed for atomic weapons and well above the 3.67 percent used for nuclear power stations.The board of governors passed the last such resolution criticising Iran in November 2022, prompting Tehran to retaliate by stepping up its uranium enrichment activities.At the opening of the meeting on Monday, IAEA head Rafael Grossi reiterated his concerns, saying: "It's unacceptable to talk about nuclear weapons, as some people do in Iran."Referring to the limited oversight the agency now has on Tehran's nuclear programme, Grossi warned that the current "knowledge gap... is making it very difficult to go back to diplomacy".At the last board meeting in March, European powers shelved their plans to confront Iran due to a lack of support from Washington.The United States denies it is hampering European efforts to hold Tehran accountable but fears a censure could aggravate Middle East tensions ahead of US presidential elections in November, diplomats say.- 'Essential and urgent' -Cooperation between Iran and the IAEA has severely deteriorated in recent years, with the UN nuclear watchdog struggling for assurances that Iran's nuclear programme is peaceful.Diplomats say maintaining the current policy of inaction amid Iran's escalation is no longer tenable and the US position could change ahead of the IEAE vote scheduled for later this week.In May, Grossi visited Iran in a bid to improve cooperation, calling for "concrete results... soon".In the meantime, the death of Iran's president Ebrahim Raisi in a helicopter crash last month has put negotiations on hold, with diplomats suggesting Tehran was using the accident as an excuse to stall.Grossi on Monday however rejected that claim, saying the pause was "not part of any delaying tactic" by Iran.He added he was ready to "sit down with the new authorities" after Iran's presidential election on June 28.The draft resolution obtained by AFP says it is "essential and urgent" that Tehran provides "technically credible explanations" for the presence of uranium particles found at two undeclared locations in Iran.Furthermore, Iran has to "reverse its withdrawal of the designations of several experienced Agency inspectors", and "without delay" reconnect the cameras used to monitor nuclear activities.The draft also notes the "concerns" surrounding "recent public statements made in Iran... regarding its technical capabilities to produce nuclear weapons and possible changes to Iran's nuclear doctrine".- 'Serious and effective response' -Iran has gradually broken away from its commitments under the nuclear deal it struck with world powers in 2015.The landmark deal provided Iran sanctions relief in exchange for curbs on its atomic programme.But it fell apart after the unilateral withdrawal of the United States under then-president Donald Trump in 2018.Efforts to revive the deal have so far failed."A showdown at the board reflects a wider impasse over Iran, with little diplomatic activity but increasing concern over a programme that continues to expand in scale under limited international oversight," Naysan Rafati, an Iran analyst at the Crisis Group, told AFP.Ali Shamkhani, a political adviser to Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, warned Saturday on X that if "some misguided European countries... adopt a hostile stance towards Iran... at the board, they will face a serious and effective response from our country".Mikhail Ulyanov, Russia's ambassador to the international organisations in Vienna, wrote on X on Sunday that tabling an "anti-Iranian resolution" could risk "seriously deteriorating the situation".dt-anb-kym/rlp
