🇹🇷 Turkish Foreign Ministry:

1. At the moment we are not talking about activating the Mecca Defense Pact due to Houthi attacks.

2. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is very well capable of defending itself, and we are monitoring the situation should things develop.

3. If Turkey ever gets involved, it will be in a purely defensive capacity.

Anduril founder Palmer Luckey confirms that Iran indeed captured an Anduril Dive - D autonomous submarine.

So, this is another instance where US CENTCOM has been caught lying since they issued a statement it was an older model and not important but judging by the post it did have classified tech!!

As you all know India is hosting the BRICS summit this time. Almost all prominent leaders from the Global South are expected to attend . Leaders of Russia and China are the biggest ones coming to this summit!!

So, get ready to see a flood of anti India narratives from the entire Western World on Western Social media platforms, Western Media houses and newspapers. They will range from India supporting dictators , to questions such as India siding with Iran and Russia, can India be trusted?

Now suddenly New Delhi's air quality, Yamuna River water quality will somehow again be at the fore front with many of our fellow countrymen propagating these narratives and many amongst the masses will fall prey to those!! So, if you come across such narratives, do not form an opinion immediately, instead do some research on your own, do some critical thinking and then judge that particular information!!

Above I have attached one such example of how some people will undermine India's efforts!!
