Russia is claiming they’ve struck 2 HIMARS missile systems and 2 ammunition depots as well. Ukraine denies. If I was going to bet, I’d put my money down on the Russia claim being accurate. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/7/6/russia-destroy-us-himar-weapons-in-ukraine-defence-ministry Russia claims it also destroyed two ammunition depots storing rockets for the HIMARS near a village south of Kramatorsk.

Pepe Escobar via the Cradle This is the concise story of how a suicide bombing may carry the potential to subvert the whole, ongoing, complex process of Eurasia integration. Recently, the Balochistan Liberation Movement (BLA) had released an ISIS-influenced video threatening “Chinese officials and installations” in Pakistan’s vast province.

Imran Khan Ousted in Pakistan
Just like that. Pakistan has this reoccurring problem. For the record: Pakistan generally seems unstable. Imran Khan’s rise to the top was questionable. To many cooks (metaphorically speaking) especially outside influencers, spoiling the soup. The military has a bit too much power and highly questionable loyalties.

Kazakhstan: This is NOT a protest.
Unless this is quieted quickly their will be widespread ramifications (a consequence of an action or event, especially when complex and/or unwelcome) from this instigated terror campaign Dozens of protesters killed and security forces decapitated as Russia-led troops fly in for ‘peacekeeping’ mission Sky news has the quotes around the word peacekeeping, as would be […]
I’m quite sure this has western backing. That’s my relatively educated and insightful opinion. A“protest” of this size coming out of nowhere? Not credible.
