🇷🇺🇺🇦⚡️ — American media reports that the Russian Armed Forces have once again used their favorite trick with pipes, this time near Kupiansk.

According to reports, Russian military personnel are using underground pipes to secretly travel kilometers, reach behind enemy lines, and launch drones from there.

These are reportedly old Soviet-era pipes. Initially, Ukrainian forces tried to target the pipe exits with artillery and aircraft, but this proved ineffective, and as a result, some of the fighting has shifted into the pipes themselves (!!).

Inside the pipes, which are approximately 1.2 meters in diameter, Russian troops have reportedly set up machine gun positions, barricades made of sandbags, and even living quarters.

At the end of the article in the WSJ, a brilliant observation is made: the Russian Armed Forces are reportedly already preparing special units for underground warfare.

🇺🇸⚡️ — Trump revealed that Google refused his request to rename the Atlantic Ocean to the American Ocean, but the U.S. president is still considering renaming the pacific ocean, according to The Washington Post.

The U.S. president stated that he is "likely to abandon this idea" because he called the company's CEO, Sundar Pichai, with the proposal, and Pichai responded, "Please don't ask us to do that."

According to Trump, Pichai replied, "No, no, no. I won't do that this time," and added, "Things are different with oceans, sir," because they border "many countries."

Trump said that after speaking with Pichai, he is "likely to abandon" the idea of renaming the Atlantic Ocean, but he still believes it is possible to rename the Pacific Ocean.
