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.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz:

"I share in the heavy grief of the family of the boy who was killed in the explosion during the trip near the northern border, and I wish a swift and full recovery to all the injured.

IDF forces are at the scene, assisting the rescue forces and will continue to assist as required. The incident is being investigated to clarify its circumstances, and I thank all the teams in the field who are working to save lives and treat the casualties.

In this difficult hour, my heart is with the family, the injured, and their families."

UPDATE: One person was killed and 19 wounded by an unexploded ordnance blast on the Ramim ridge near the Lebanese border. Two are in serious condition, three in moderate. The casualties are schoolchildren and teachers who were on a hike near the Pe'er observation point.

Police sappers are at the scene. The IDF sent Yahalom combat engineers to scan for more ordnance, along with medics and three Air Force helicopters for evacuation. - Open Source Intel
