Ukraine hits a convoy of trucks M14 Novorossiya Highway between Mariupol and Berdyansk, at least three or four trucks seem to be burning here, likely carrying fuel.
The trench had gone completely silent. When the International Legion moved in through the fog, the only sound left in the dark was breathing.
In this footage, an International Legion unit carries out a clearing operation against Russian positions dug into dense wooded terrain. The objective: clear every trench — and if possible, take prisoners. The Russian soldiers holding this line had been there for a very long time, abandoned and cut off from their own army.
What follows is 18 minutes of close-quarters trench warfare: a silent approach under the cover of fog, grenade clearance dugout by dugout, a bunker barricaded from the inside, and a standoff that ends in a way you won't expect. In the second operation, Ukrainian infantry assault another Russian position — this time with no intention of capturing anyone.
In the Ukraine War, an S-300 or S-400 battery was destroyed by Ukraine, causing a huge blast. It was in Feodosia, near the naval base.
Ukrainian forces hit at least 5 workshop buildings at Russia’s Kombinat Kamensky defense plant in Rostov region, penetrating several layers of air defenses from Pantsir to S-300 systems. The plant produces solid rocket fuel for Uragan, Smerch and Tornado-S MLRS, as well as other missile and aviation systems. Key workshops had anti-drone protection and were surrounded by earthworks. Several air-defense vehicles were also hit, with damage still being assessed.
>The Commons public safety committee yesterday by unanimous vote agreed to probe apparent failures in security screening after a Chinese-Canadian intern at NATO headquarters was arrested on espionage charges. Canadians of Chinese ancestry were owed a thorough investigation of security breaches that are “dividing our communities,” said one MP: “We need to get to the bottom of the issue, determine what went wrong.”
Preventing a conflict over Taiwan requires more than US military strength. The United States and its allies must coordinate their political, military, and economic power to deter China and preserve peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific.
Ukrainian drones have hit the Koledino Wildberries Distribution hub near Moscow, completely destroying it. This is the biggest Wildberries hub in Russia, with a 250,000 square meter capacity.
In the Ukraine War, Flamingo Missiles hit the TsSKB-Progress plant in Samara, which is the only factory that makes Soyuz rockets. This is important because Russia recently started launching its own Skylink variant satellites, Rassvet using these.
Executive Summary:
The People’s Republic of China (PRC) enforces many product rules domestically without extending them to goods that leave the country. These cases span distinct ministerial jurisdictions, encompassing fentanyl precursors, flavored e-cigarettes, toxic children’s products, and large language models (LLMs).
These trades share a similar factual structure. After judging a product as inherently harmful, unsafe above a specific threshold, or useful to the Party-state while detrimental to the public, the government regulates its domestic sale and applies the same rules in full to imports, yet leaves the export virtually unrestricted.
The first three cases illustrate this regulatory asymmetry. Fentanyl precursors faced strict domestic controls, but kept reaching North America despite Beijing’s capacity to halt them. Flavored e-cigarettes, entirely banned internally, are exported en masse. Children’s goods that fail the PRC’s own safety standards are freely shipped to foreign consumers.
LLMs present a variant of this structure. While non-PRC models lacking proper regulatory filing cannot lawfully serve PRC users, PRC open-weight models operate abroad without barrier, carrying the Party-state’s censorship and political narratives to global users.
Defense Secretary Gilberto Teodoro Jr. accused China of using “disinformation through avoidance,” hitting back at Beijing over its latest statement on the arrest of Chinese nationals in the Philippines and more than 100 Filipinos in China. Full story

Satellite imagery confirms major damage to Novorossiysk grain terminal and oil pipelines at the naval base. A tanker was hit too. This was a large attack on Novorossiysk Naval Base featuring many drones. The submarine Kilo-class and naval base were attacked.
Ukraine has destroyed the Voronezh Wildberries distribution hub which is 150,000 square meters and the 8th biggest in Russia. This is the 17th Wildberries hub destroyed so far.
