Hoping this will be confirmed Sébastien Lecornu

Maybe I was too cryptic (my SITREP's stick to the 280 sign format); I was referring to the allegations of direct UK participation for which I haven't seen hard evidence from the Russians. Thanks for your interest

SITREP DAY 249

1. Pinocchio: as of today, 🇷🇺 has provided no hard evidence for its allegations re Nordstream cuts, re 'dirty bomb', re Sevastopol drone attacks...
2. What's up? 🇹🇷 says not notified of 🇷🇺n withdrawal fm grain export treaty. 2Mt afloat, millions waiting for food

I take it you don't have the statistics . Bonsoir

In 2021, a Ryanair flight was hijacked and diverted to Belarus, where blogger Roman Protasevich and his partner Sofia Sapega were arrested.

What went on inside the Minsk control tower that day?

A secret recording by the flight controller tells the story: politi.co/3f2funT

Workers have broken out of #Apple ’s largest assembly site, escaping the Zero #Covid lockdown at Foxconn in #Zhengzhou . After sneaking out, they’re walking to home towns more than 100 kilometres away to beat the Covid app measures designed to control people and stop this. #China

Wondering how mortality rates in zero-COVID 🇨🇳 compare in 2022 to pre-pandemic levels. I suspect, but it's no more than a hunch, that 🇨🇳’s lockdowns have not only economic & social costs, but may also carry a public health burden. Shanghai as a template? John Burn-Murdoch ?

The recent deep-strikes by #Russian drones marks a shift in Russian strategy, and the dynamics of the #UkraineRussiaWar in the short-term.

I've gathered info, analysis, and developed graphics for a deeper look at a key component of this trend: the #Shahed136 .

A mega thread

KHERSON CITY /30 OCT/ Twelve HIMARS precision strike munitions targeted barge/ferry operations and the bridge spans of the M-14 HWY, Anatovsky Bridge. UKR Intel has noted the arrival of ‘Rosguard’ and engineering personnel into the city. RU continues preparations for urban combat

Russia’s hunger PR. Moscow promises free 500 thousand tons of grain (most likely stolen from Ukraine) to other countries over the next 4 months. But by ruining the grain corridor Russia blocks 2 million (!) tons of grain for Algeria, Yemen, Vietnam, Bangladesh & others RIGHT NOW.

Incident in Sevastopol and grain deal is all but blackmail of two wary Russian allies, Beijing and New Dehli. If Ukrainian import is stopped right now, then 🇨🇳 and 🇮🇳 must switch to Russian or American/Canadian/Australian import. India will get with it but China can have troubles

Well, yes. Also wondering what 🇹🇷 is making of Putin's decision

Pas des Khmers verts?

Is there a direct institutional connection between this UK case and the similar clandestine Chinese police op uncovered in the Netherlands? Any other countries affected? Antoine Bondaz
