Sources quoted by Axios described Trump as the most “enthusiastic” person in the White House about starting a war with Iran. At the same time, Trump declares himself much more aligned with the maximalist objectives that Netanyahu has regarding Iran, than his advisers at the White House. Three of Trump’s advisers…
Behind the scenes of the Middle East war, a Moscow–Tehran axis is becoming increasingly visible, where the exchange of information and military technology takes on a strategic stake. According to The Wall Street Journal, Russia is stepping up its support for Iran, providing satellite images and advanced drone technologies, with the aim of increasing the precision of strikes on American forces in the region. Sources cited by the publication claim that Putin is pursuing a dual objective: supporting his ally in the confrontation with the USA and Israel, but also prolonging a conflict that brings him both military and economic…

Following the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz by the Iranians, the world’s attention is now increasingly turning towards the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, which risks becoming a new hotspot of the Middle East war. This strait separates Yemen, from the Arabian Peninsula, from Djibouti and Eritrea, from the Horn of Africa and is the gateway to the Red Sea and the Suez Canal. A Yemeni military leader recently warned that blocking this strategic route could be one of the action options of the Houthi rebels, Iran’s allies in the region. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz has already caused…
The Russian giant Rusal, one of the largest aluminum producers worldwide, is going through a critical period, ending the year 2025 with a record net loss. This is the first time since 2014 that the company controlled by oligarch Oleg Deripaska reports a negative result, marking a turning point that shatters the myth of the resilience of the Russian economy in the face of international sanctions. This financial collapse comes against the backdrop of increasing tension between Deripaska and the Kremlin leadership, the oligarch becoming one of the most critical voices in the Russian business environment regarding the direction in…
An event organized at a university in Russia, meant to attract students to the so-called “drone troops”, ended awkwardly: a soldier lost control of the device during the demonstration, and the images quickly made their way to the internet.

They had come to convince students to enlist on a contract basis and to offer them a “masterclass” in drone operation. However, the demonstration turned into a public failure. In the images that appeared online, it can be seen how the soldier controls the…
For years, Ilia Remeslo was a reliable pro-Kremlin operator – he attacked critics of the Putin regime, defamed independent journalists, bloggers, and opposition politicians. Then, quite abruptly, Remeslo turned against the Russian dictator and published a manifesto on Telegram, titled – “Five reasons why I no longer support Vladimir Putin,” writes The Guardian. In the manifesto published for his 90,000 followers on the social network, Remeslo accuses the “illegitimate president” of Russia of leading a “failed war” in Ukraine that has produced millions of victims and destroyed the economy.He also said that Vladimir Putin’s two decades in power demonstrate how…
President Donald Trump has stated that the United States should reconsider its membership in NATO, criticizing American allies for not assisting in the war with Iran. Membership in NATO, Trump said, is “definitely something we should think about,” while criticizing allies for rejecting his requests for help. Trump said the U.S. was not obliged to help when Russia invaded Ukraine, seeming to equate the war there with the one in Iran. “We help them, and they didn’t help us, and I think that’s a very bad thing for NATO,” Trump said. Trump said NATO allies support the U.S. goal of…
The autonomous war will not begin with armies of robots marching on the battlefield. In reality, it has already begun — discreetly, but inevitably — on the fronts of eastern Ukraine and, to a lesser extent, in the Middle East. There, an increasing number of military missions are carried out by machines operating at speeds impossible for humans to match, while electronic warfare frequently disrupts the links between operators and their equipment. According to an analysis signed in Foreign Affairs by retired American general David Petraeus and analyst Isaac C. Flanagan, autonomous systems will soon no longer operate individually. They…
A scandal has erupted in Hungary following the appearance on the streets of several cities of controversial electoral banners featuring an image of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The posters carry the message: “Remember! Uzhhorod is a Hungarian city.

The banner is presented in an ironic manner. The banners are part of a political campaign associated with the team of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, and the posters bear the inscription “Nemzeti…
