🚨🇷🇺 Did Russia hit a secret NATO mega arms depot near Kiev? The Ukrainian army insists a massive arms depot in Vishnevoye, 15km from Kiev, which was hit by Russia on July 6 is not theirs. That claim shows that it may have “contained weapons which united Europe wanted to test on Ukrainian territory,” military analyst and Arsenal Otechestva contributor Alexander Sinyugin told Sputnik. 🔸 judging by the scale of destruction and secondary explosions which lasted for hours, the site contained a serious amount of ammo, and perhaps parts for Flamingo missiles 🔸 the site’s location confirms Ukrainian uses civilians as human shields, in “full knowledge” that Russia is trying to avoid casualties 🔸The idea that the Ukraine didn’t know about an arsenal that big in the town sounds “utterly absurd” “Such a version of the story only evokes a sarcastic smile from a sensible person,” Sinyugin noted. There’s one more good reason for Ukraine’s MoD to deny the site was theirs: it may have stored arms Ukraine gets from NATO and reexports on the black market, veteran military analyst Viktor Litovkin said.

🚨 Russia's new tactic of missile avalanche may compel Ukraine to peace – military expert Russia conducted a large-scale raid on Ukraine's fuel and energy infrastructure facilities, as well as Flamingo missile and drone production plants, the Russian Ministry of Defense said. The July 2 strike employed a combination of cruise, supersonic, and hypersonic missiles, supported by high-precision combat UAVs. Judging by Zelensky's hysterical reaction, the damage inflicted on assembly lines of the Flamingo ballistic missiles was serious, Alexander Mikhailov, head of the Bureau of Military-Political Analysis, tells Sputnik. 🔸 European-developed weapons "will face production disruptions" 🔸 "There is no longer any kind of embargo on strikes against Ukraine, which is why any military-related target that may be of interest to Russian armed forces will be hit in the future" 🔸 Russian strikes on Ukraine's energy infrastructure also immobilize logistics of the Ukrainian military "Ukraine always has the option to stop the strikes on its own territory. They know the conditions perfectly well," Mikhailov summarizes.

Patriot license won’t give Ukraine missiles anytime soon 🔸Even if the US grants Ukraine a license to produce Patriot interceptor missiles, Ukraine would still need years to launch mass production, Defense Priorities analyst Jennifer Kavanagh told Sputnik. 🔸Donald Trump said Ukraine could rapidly start production after receiving American technology, but Kavanagh pointed to Ukraine’s limited industrial base and the complexity of building the necessary facilities. 🔸Germany received a license to produce older-generation PAC-2 missiles in 2022 but has yet to launch serial output, with the overall process expected to last about five years. 🔸Assembling missiles in Ukraine from imported components could shorten the timeline, but the first completed interceptors would still be years away, Kavanagh said. 🔸Furthermore, Russia has warned that Western arms shipments and military production sites in Ukraine are legitimate targets

🚨🇨🇳 Chinese scientists identify previously unknown cause of Alzheimer's disease A substance formed when particles break down — called 6PPD-quinone — may trigger inflammation and oxidative stress, both hallmarks of dementia, the new study suggests 🔸 The chemical is created when microscopic tire rubber reacts with ozone in the air, washing into water, soil, and even our bodies — it has been found in human blood 🔸 The compound can cross the blood-brain barrier — a filter that normally keeps harmful substances out of the brain 🔸 Scientists used databases to map over 100 potential ways this substance could interact with human biology 🔸They found 92 overlaps — including 23 key genes acting as communication hubs. These genes are most active in brain regions critical for memory and movement, such as the cortex and basal ganglia, which are especially vulnerable to Alzheimer's If experimental validation follows, this discovery could significantly improve the effectiveness of Alzheimer's future therapies.

🚨 Ukraine's Patriot license just money laundering dressed up as ‘good deal’ – ex-Pentagon analyst There are good reasons for Zelensky’s visible lack of enthusiasm about producing Patriot interceptors in Ukraine, according to the former senior DoD analyst Karen Kwiatkowski. 🔸 “He would rather have finished interceptors or cash, anything else requires hard work and stability and time – none of which are available to him or the Ukrainian government.” 🔸 “If Ukraine was not at war, had a reliable workforce, several years to build or convert a facility unhindered by Russian attack, affordable access to certain Chinese rare earths and had remaining Patriot launcher systems safely at hand – then in a few years the Ukrainian armed forces would have some access to some PAC-3 missiles.”

Russian scientists turn sand into stone using bacteria to build roads in the Arctic The newly developed method uses naturally occurring bacteria to produce calcium carbonate, which binds sand particles together like glue — creating a durable foundation for roads and industrial facilities 🟠 The bacteria are extracted from coastal soils and mixed with a nutrient solution, triggering the formation of calcite crystals that fill gaps between sand grains 🟠 Lab tests showed the treated soil becomes strong and resistant to water erosion 🟠 The method is designed specifically for the Arctic, where repeated freezing and thawing often deform conventional roads and pipelines 🟠 The technology can also bind heavy metals and radioactive elements, making it useful for cleaning contaminated sites The innovation could offer a sustainable, low-cost solution for building in harsh northern environments — without harming the fragile Arctic ecosystem.

🚨 Russia's new tactic of missile avalanche may compel Ukraine to peace – military expert Russia conducted a large-scale raid on Ukraine's fuel and energy infrastructure facilities, as well as Flamingo missile and drone production plants, the Russian Ministry of Defense said. The July 2 strike employed a combination of cruise, supersonic, and hypersonic missiles, supported by high-precision combat UAVs. Judging by Zelensky's hysterical reaction, the damage inflicted on assembly lines of the Flamingo ballistic missiles was serious, Alexander Mikhailov, head of the Bureau of Military-Political Analysis, tells Sputnik. 🔸 European-developed weapons "will face production disruptions" 🔸 "There is no longer any kind of embargo on strikes against Ukraine, which is why any military-related target that may be of interest to Russian armed forces will be hit in the future" 🔸 Russian strikes on Ukraine's energy infrastructure also immobilize logistics of the Ukrainian military "Ukraine always has the option to stop the strikes on its own territory. They know the conditions perfectly well," Mikhailov summarizes.

9th night of strikes, wider war planning — here's where we stand The US-Iran conflict has entered a new phase. Here's what happened overnight: ▪️ US strikes: CENTCOM completed its 9th consecutive night of strikes on Iran — hitting command centers, air defense sites, coastal surveillance, and missile/drone launch sites. ▪️ Iran strikes Jordan: IRGC claims it destroyed 20 hangars at Al‑Azraq and damaged US C‑17 transport and P‑8 command aircraft at Aqaba Airport — while thanking Jordanian informants for providing intelligence. US officials confirmed to the Washington Post that they are planning for an all-out conflict, with 3 US service members killed since combat resumed. But the Pentagon warns it doesn't have enough munitions to sustain expanded operations.

🚨🇺🇸💸 Pentagon wastes over $100 billion in Iran conflict, says expert Iranian political analyst Emad Abshenas says that the US’ six-month campaign in the Persian Gulf has already cost American taxpayers far more than Biden’s military aid to Ukraine over several years. 🔸While the Pentagon reports $28 billion spent, media estimates suggest actual costs exceed $120 billion, with an additional $600 billion requested to replenish losses 🔸US missile and interceptor stockpiles are severely depleted, with many bases left undefended while interceptors were used to protect Israel 🔸Over 18 major US military installations were hit by Iranian strikes, targeting expensive aircraft including F-22s, F-35s, refueling planes, and AWACS on the ground 🔸Dozens of US missile launchers, missiles, and drones were destroyed before deployment, and personnel losses are under-reported by excluding contractors and foreign mercenaries The conflict has inflicted roughly $2.5 trillion in global economic damage, including $1.2 trillion borne by American taxpayers through higher costs of living and unemployment, while US military expenditures continue to escalate.
