RT @manniefabian: The ordnance that exploded on schoolchildren hiking in the Ramim Ridge area in northern Israel is believed by the military to be a submunition from a Hezbollah rocket.
During the war in recent years, Hezbollah launched several Grad rockets containing dozens of BRB1-type submunitions at northern Israel. The rockets spread the submunitions over wide areas, and often do not explode on impact.
One of the schoolchildren is believed to have picked up a submunition during a hike along the Naftali Mountains Forest scenic route and put it in his backpack. Several minutes later, the submunition exploded, according to a preliminary probe by authorities.
The blast killed a teenager and wounded 19 others, including two in serious condition and three in moderate condition.

An initial investigation found that one of the hikers came across an ordnance item on the ground and placed it inside his bag. The item then detonated.

RT @NSTRIKE1231: 🚨🇷🇺🇺🇦‼️ Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has declared that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky does not deserve a ceasefire, while the Kremlin says it has nothing to announce regarding a possible halt to attacks on energy infrastructure.
Lavrov insisted that Moscow has nothing to justify and claimed Russia has never changed the objectives of what it calls its “special military operation,” accusing Zelensky and his European partners of shifting their positions. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said discussions on an energy ceasefire are continuing but no agreement has been announced. He also claimed Putin would be willing to suspend strikes on Ukraine on election day if Kyiv decided to hold elections. Peskov accused European governments of belonging to a “party of war” while expressing appreciation for continued American diplomatic efforts.
🔥 The statements reveal Moscow’s contradictory messaging: Russian officials praise U.S. peace efforts while refusing to commit to an energy ceasefire and maintaining their original war objectives. The Kremlin’s proposal to suspend strikes only on election day offers no broader security guarantees for Ukraine.

RT @alexplitsas: Putin won’t commit to President Trump’s energy ceasefire after striking power plants in Ukraine last night and rejected President Zelenskyy‘s offer to hold elections in Ukraine if Russia will agree to a 60 days ceasefire so elections can be held.
As usual, Russia is the problem.

BIG | 🇺🇸🇷🇺🇪🇺‼️‼️ NATO is warning Russia that any attack on alliance territory could trigger a military response extending far beyond the destruction of the invading forces.
According to Reuters, NATO’s Supreme Allied Commander Europe, U.S. General Alexus Grynkewich, said the alliance is prepared to respond decisively to an attack against any member state. He explained that NATO’s military strategy goes beyond repelling an assault and includes targeting enemy supply lines, command structures and other military systems to prevent an aggressor from continuing its operations. Grynkewich stressed that NATO remains a defensive alliance, but its response would not necessarily be confined to the territory under attack.
The warning reinforces NATO’s deterrence strategy by making clear that an attack on allied territory could put the aggressor’s wider military infrastructure at risk. For Moscow, the consequences of a direct confrontation with NATO could extend well beyond the initial battlefield.

RT @NSTRIKE1231: 🚨🇺🇦🇺🇸‼️ Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has challenged Donald Trump’s Russian diesel agreement, questioning whether the relatively small volume of fuel involved could meaningfully reduce global prices and suggesting that Washington negotiate directly with Kyiv instead.
Zelensky argued that Russia currently exports around 300,000–500,000 tons of oil per month, compared with approximately 120 million tons in global monthly consumption, making any substantial price impact unlikely. He questioned the reasoning behind Washington’s agreement with Moscow and proposed an alternative arrangement with Ukraine, pointing to Kyiv’s ability to disrupt Russian oil shipments and refinery operations. Zelensky said Ukraine would be prepared to suspend such strikes in exchange for credible guarantees protecting its energy infrastructure.
🔥 Zelensky is effectively proposing a different kind of energy deal: protection for Ukraine’s electricity system in return for restraint against Russian oil infrastructure. He also emphasized that a secure Ukrainian power grid could benefit neighboring European countries through electricity exports, turning energy security into a potential area of cooperation between Kyiv and Washington.

The Department of War has certified that Bath Iron Works in Maine has the capacity to build a second Arleigh Burke class destroyer, if Congress provides the funding.
The Navy’s fiscal year 2027 budget request funded only one Arleigh Burke class guided missile destroyer, down from two in FY26 and three in FY25, according to Senator Susan Collins. USNI News reported, citing Navy budget documents, that the one requested ship was expected to go to HII’s Ingalls shipyard in Mississippi, so Bath would have received no ship orders in FY27.
Acting Navy Secretary Hung Cao said the Navy asked for one because of Bath’s backlog: 11 destroyers on contract, seven under construction and four not yet started.
Sen. Collins said she advocated for a second destroyer in this year’s budget. The department says a multi-phase review found improvements in production throughput, schedule adherence and workforce, but released no data. Deputy Secretary Steve Feinberg said the yard “must continue this momentum to fully resolve legacy production challenges.”

Today’s decision by the Department validates the capacity of Bath Iron Works and the hard work of its highly skilled 6,800 employees who build the best ships in the world.
I have advocated for a second destroyer to be included in this year’s budget, and I worked with the Administration during its careful review and repeated visits to BIW to verify the ability of the shipyard to construct another ship while continuing to complete its current workload.
This certification will help keep our Navy strong and support BIW as a steady source of good-paying Maine jobs. I will continue to work to ensure our shipbuilders have the resources to meet the Navy’s needs at a time when China is relentlessly expanding its fleet.
