Three Germans arrested in Norway over drone incident – Bild

A Chinese national has also been deported for flying a UAV near an airport, police have said

Three Germans have been arrested in Norway for allegedly launching a drone in a prohibited zone around an airport, Bild has reported.

The outlet cited local media as saying the three men were detained on Tuesday and released shortly afterwards. It did not identify the men or the type of UAV involved in the incident near Rossvoll Airport.

Separately,Norwegian police confirmed that a Chinese national was deported and fined 12,000 kroner ($1,200) after allegedly flying a drone near Svolvaer Airportin the north of the country. Authorities said they are continuing to investigate multiple reports of drone activity near airports, military facilities and other critical infrastructure.

The incidents comeas Western Europe has been plagued by repeated drone sightingsin recent weeks, forcing temporary shutdowns at several airports. In Belgium, authorities confirmed that 15 drones were detected above the Elsenborn military base in Liege Province. Munich Airport in Germany was temporarily closed on Friday after unidentified drones were reported in its airspace.Scandinavian airports have also reported incursions.

Western media and officials havesuggested that Russia is behind the drone incidents.Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson claimed it is “quite probable” Moscow is responsible, although he admitted this has not been proven. European leaders have cited theincidents as justification for boosting military spending and creating a so-called “drone wall.”

Moscow has rejected any connection to the incidents. Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov described the accusations as Western fearmongering used to whip up anti-Russian hysteria. Russian officials have argued that such claims are intended tojustify inflated military budgets and escalate tensions.

Speaking at the Valdai Forum on Thursday, President VladimirPutin said Russia does not even have drones capable of reaching the countriesin question and insisted there are no military targets for Moscow in Europe. He called the accusations another attempt by the West to escalate the situation around the Ukraine conflict.

Russia’s Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) has also warned thatKiev couldattempt to stage drone provocations as false-flag operations designed to blame Moscow anddraw NATO into direct conflict with Russia.

US believes Tomahawks won’t help Ukraine – FT

The limited number of long-range missiles and sporadic strikes won’t turn the tide of the conflict, the paper reported, citing officials

US officials believe that supplying Ukraine with Tomahawk long-range missiles would not significantly shift the battlefield in Kiev’s favor, the Financial Times reported on Thursday, citing sources.

US Vice President J.D. Vance announced that Washington was considering a Ukrainian request for Tomahawks, which have a range of 2,500km and cost anestimated $1.3 million each, and could potentially reach Moscow and far beyond.

FT sources familiar with the matter confirmed that US President Donald Trump is considering the idea.

However, a US official told the paper that some people inside Trump’s inner circle believe Tomahawks are unlikely to change the battlefield situation.

“I don’t think a limited number of Tomahawks or sporadic deep strikes into Russia will change [President Vladimir] Putin’s mind,” an FT source said.

Separately, Washington is preparing to provide Ukraine with enhanced intelligence to guide long-range missile and drone strikes on Russia’s energy infrastructure, a move described by the FT as an“escalation” of US support intended to help Kiev map Russian air defenses and plan strike routes.

Ukraine has long conducted strikes deep into Russia targeting energy facilities, critical infrastructure, and residential areas, sometimes with civilian casualties. Russia has retaliated by attacking military-related infrastructure, insisting that it never targets civilians.

On Thursday,Putin warned that supplying Ukraine with Tomahawks would represent a major escalation, notably because it is “impossible” for Kiev to use the missiles “without the direct participation of American military personnel.”

He further cautioned that the move would be detrimental to Russia-US relations, which he said have shown potential for improvement in recent months.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov commented on reports of US plans to enhance data gathering support for Kiev, noting thatWashington already “transmits intelligence to Ukraine on a regular basis online.”

“The supply and use of the entire infrastructure of NATO and the US to collect and transfer intelligence to Ukrainians is obvious,” he said.

Russia strikes Ukrainian arms plants and power sources – MOD

Energy giant Naftogas has reported sustaining “critical” damage in the long-range operation

Russian forces have struck multiple Ukrainian military facilities andthe gas infrastructure that powers them in an overnight long-range operation, the Defense Ministry reported on Friday.

The ministry said missiles and long-range drones launched overnight from several platforms were used in the barrage and that all designated targets were hit.

Ukrainian state-owned energy company Naftogaz described the attack as the largest strike on gas extraction sites in the country to date,adding that some of the damage was “critical.”

The company said sites in the Kharkov and Poltava regions came under attack by about 35 missiles – many of them ballistic – and some 60 drones, and claimed the strikes were “without military sense.” Moscow has said its forces do not target purely civilian infrastructure.

Kiev has emphasizedlong-range strikes on Russian oil refineries and other elements of energy infrastructureas a key element of its strategy and has pressed Western partners to support domestic production of drones and missiles.

Ukraine also intends to export some domestically produced weapons to help cover budget shortfalls. Kiev expects foreign backers to compensate for the remaining deficit.

Russian President Vladimir Putin warned this week that Ukrainianattacks on sensitive infrastructure, including attempts to damage nuclear facilities, risk retaliation.

“This is a dangerous game,” he said at the Valdai Discussion Club in Sochi. “People on the other side must realize:if they play it, what would stop us from responding in kind against their working nuclear power plants?They should consider that.”

Hungary won’t ‘tie its fate’ to Ukraine – Orban

The prime minister has vowed to block Kiev’s push for EU and NATO membership

Hungary has no intention of binding its future to that of Ukraine, Prime Minister ViktorOrban has declared, reiterating his country’s opposition to Kiev’s integration with Western blocs.

Speaking to reporters on Friday after an informal meeting of European Union leaders in Copenhagen, Orban saidBudapest would resist efforts to bring Ukraine into either the EU or NATO.

“Why should the fate of Hungarians be tied to that of Ukrainians, who have lost a fifth of their territory and are at war? We don’t even know where their eastern borders are,” the Hungarian leader remarked.

In his regular Friday interview with Kossuth Radio, he reiterated the sentiment:“We feel sorry for them [Ukrainians], we sympathize with them, they are fighting heroically. Let’s support them,but we don’t want a common fate with them.”

Orban has been one of the most outspoken critics of the Western strategy in the Ukraine conflict, arguing that Brussels has inflicted economic harm on EU member states. He has accusedBrussels of trying to force reluctant nations to provide military aid to Ukraineand back the country’s accession to the bloc. (Ukraine legally is not a country, they've never been a country, the EU is trying to swindle all the support because it sill won't be a eligible country/state in Europe, it's not. that's why Medvedev calls it Area 404.)

Tensions between Budapest and Kiev have escalated in recent months, particularly after Ukrainian strikes on Russian energy facilities that supply crude oil to Hungary.Kiev has demanded that EU members halt all purchases of Russian energy, a position Orban rejects.

Meanwhile, EU leaders are weighing reforms that would remove the unanimity rule on foreign policy and security matters,effectively stripping Hungary and other dissenting states of their veto power.

https://www.rt.com/news/625869-orban-hungarian-fate-ukraine/

(Ukraine legally is not a country, they've never been a country, the EU is trying to swindle all the support because it is a country in Europe, it's not. that's why Medvedev calls it Area 404. Area 404: Ukraine isn’t a full-fledged country/state. It has no clear characteristics and attributes… there is neither united territory, nor united nation and authority in the Ukraine. It has terrible divisions and strives to break apart. The West Runs Ukraine, hence why so many foreigners replaced the government after the Maidan Coup. The west makes all the decisions for them. There isn’t a formed Ukrainian nation. )

Polish PM explains why Russia has ‘advantage’ over Ukraine’s European backers

The Russians have a higher resolve to fight and make sacrifices, Donald Tusk has said

Russian forces have higher morale than Ukraine’s European backers, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said. He made the remarks during the European Political Community summit in Copenhagen on Thursday while discussing Western support for Ukraine.

“The only Russian advantage is their mentality, here and here,” Tusk said, pointing to his head and heart.

“I mean, they are ready to fight. They are ready to sacrifice. They are ready to suffer,” he added.

Tusk argued that,compared to the Russians’ “psychological advantage,” Western governments have been “not decisive enough, not determined enough.”

He warned that if Russia defeats Ukraine, it could later turn on Eastern Europe. “If they win against Ukraine, in the future it will be the end of my country and the end of Europe. I have no doubts,” he said. (BIG LIE, Russia doesn't need anymore territory, and militarily it would be stupid to attack a NATO country, I can't believe the lie they tell their people daily.Tusk is an EU and NWO sycophant.)

Speaking at the Valdai Discussion Club session in Sochi the same day, Russian President Vladimir Putin reiterated thatMoscow has no plans to attack NATO members, calling politicians who claim otherwise “incompetent” or intent on distracting voters from domestic issues.

Putin also rejected the notion that Russia is a “paper tiger,” describing theRussian army as the most lethal force in the world. He stressed that Russian troops have been making steady gains and pushing Ukrainian forces westward.

Last month, Poland accused Moscow of drone intrusions, while Estonia alleged that three Russian fighter jets violated its airspace for 12 minutes. Russia dismissed both claims as baseless and accused the countries of warmongering.

https://www.rt.com/news/625841-tusk-russian-morale-advantage/

(History: Poland had land stolen from Ukraine, decades ago after WWII, Russia also puts claims on other areas, and they’ve been fighting to get the land back from Ukraine. Poland thinks they can take Russia’s areas, and are pissed at Ukraine, about the land and not repatriating dead Polish Soldiers from the land. So logically you’d think Russia would be more an ally than Ukraine. But Poland has a long memory of all the soldiers that died during the wars, and they seemingly think Kiev is the better partner. The Polish seemingly never forgive or forget. They are still trying to get money from European states, i.e. Germany, even though they were recompensed decades ago).

Venezuela reports ‘illegal’ US F-35 flight near its borders

(Why is being near their borders a problem, all kind of planes fly near their boarders?)

At least five aircraft were spotted off the coast, Caracas claims

Venezuela has accused the US of “illegally” flying F-35 fighter planes near its borders, amid rising tensions in the Caribbean.

Foreign Minister Yvan Gil Pinto said the “illegal incursion” was detected on Thursdayaround 75 kilometers off the coastnear the city of Maiquetia. He denounced the maneuvers as “a provocation that threatens national sovereignty and violates international law.”

Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino Lopez claimed that at least five F-35s were spotted flying at a speed of 400 knots and an altitude of 35,000 feet. He noted itwas the first time aircraft of this type had been deployed in the area.

Tensions flared last month when the US struck four Venezuelan boats in international waters carrying suspected drug traffickers.

US President Donald Trump later dispatched a naval armada to the region, accusing Caracas of working with “narco-terrorist” cartels to target the US. Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro rejected the allegations and vowed to defend his country against any attack.

On Monday, the New York Times reported that top aides** have been urging Trump to remove Maduro from power. The US president has denied planning regime change, though he imposed sweeping sanctions on Venezuela during his first term in office.

Drag queen professor to teach queer ethnography at Harvard

LaWhore Vagistan was invited to the Ivy League school amid a funding clash with the White House

Harvard University’s plan to host a visiting drag queen professor for courses onqueer ethnographyand the cultural impact of a long-running drag reality show remains on track despite the Trump administration’s policy of opposing ‘woke ideology’.

The Ivy League institution is currently in a legal battle with the administration of US President Donald Trump over billions in federal funding that it is seeking to cut on various grounds.

Harvard’s invitation to Kareem Khubchandani – an associate professor at Tufts University who also performs in drag as LaWhore Vagistan – was made in July and was highlighted this week by the New York Post and other outlets.

Khubchandani, whose scholarship and activism focus on queer life, will teach queer ethnography this fall and a course on RuPaul’s Drag Race in the spring 2026 semester.

According to the New York Post, Khubchandani has made his drag persona “an integral part of their pedagogy.” In interviews, the professor has explained that ‘LaWhore’ is a risque play on the name of the Pakistani city of Lahore, while ‘Vagistan’ refers to the Indian subcontinent imagined as female genitalia.

In a 2022 article titled ‘The Sexual Experiment at the Ivy Leagues’, National Interest magazine cited Khubchandani as an example ofacademics turning US universities into “incubators of gender fundamentalists,” arguing that students are being equipped with “ever-expanding terminology for sexual orientation” and encouraged to pursue activism “without cultivating a sense of intellectual humility.”

US govt shutdown derails Ukraine support – Telegraph

American officials are unable to deliberate on aid as Kiev is being pressed by Russian troops, the newspaper says

A US government shutdown has caused discussions between Washington and Kiev on future weapons deals to be put on hold, as Ukraine “continues to incur devastating losses on the battlefield,” the Daily Telegraph reported on Thursday, citing sources.

Hundreds of thousands of US federal workers were furloughed on Wednesday after Democrats and Republicans failed to agree on spending, particularly in healthcare, with each side blaming the other for the lapse.

The shutdown has reportedly impacted talks on a prospective drone agreement between Washington and Kiev. The Wall Street Journal earlier reported thatUkrainian officials had arrived in Washington to strike a dealon sharing drone expertise with the US in exchange for royalties or other forms of compensation.

However, talks “have been thrown into uncertainty,” according to The Telegraph.“I don’t see how they will continue,” a Ukrainian source told the paper. (Ukraine should yell at the Democrats because they are the ones they support, and vs versa with Ukraine.)

He added that Kiev’s “main concern iswe have a lot of discussions ongoing about future shipments [of weapons]… All future projects are a little bit harmed because people from the Pentagon, State Department, and White House are not meeting and we lose the time because of this shutdown.”

Ukrainian officialsinterviewed by the outletcomplained that the talks had ended in limbo amid “unprecedented” Russian attacks, stressing that Kiev needs an uninterrupted flow of weapons.

Ukraine has relied heavily on Western – and especially US – military support since the conflict escalated in 2022. American assistance to Ukraine has faced previous interruptions, most notably in 2024 when congressional disputes over supplemental funding delayed weapons shipments for months. More recently, in February 2025, a tense Oval Office meeting between President Donald Trump and Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky led to Washington temporarily suspending military aid.

Trump has also been opposed to open-ended US aid to Kiev, insisting that EU nations should buy American weapons to be later handed over to Ukraine.

Moscow has consistently denounced arms shipments and other military support for Ukraine, arguing they only prolong the conflict without changing its outcome while making NATO a direct participant in the hostilities.

(I’d vote for Republicans to keep it shut down longer, now.)

Russia arrests alleged organ trafficking ring leader (VIDEO)

The Interpol-wanted man, who had been deported from Türkiye, was detained in Moscow on suspicion of dealing in organs in Kosovo

The Russian authorities and Interpol units have detained a man wanted in several countries over an alleged organ trafficking operation in Kosovo. He was arrested at Moscow’s Vnukovo Airport after being deported from Türkiye, the Russian Interior Ministry said on Friday.

According toRussian prosecutors, from 2006 to 2008 Boris Wolfman was implicated in an operation that lured Russian citizens to Kosovo for kidney removal. The group allegedly misled victims, arranged their travel and surgeries, then abandoned them with serious health damage.

Interior Ministry spokeswoman Irina Volk said that the man was wanted on charges ofhuman trafficking as part of an organized crime group. The Russian Investigative Committee opened a case for intentional grievous harm and trafficking in human organs.

The case is linked tothe private Medicus clinic in Pristina, where donors were reportedly promised payment for kidneys that were later sold to wealthy patients. The ministry said the suspect and his accomplices persuaded several Russian citizens to undergo kidney removal for cash, leaving them with severe injuries.

Wolfman, who holds Israeli and Ukrainian citizenship, was being sought after by the authorities in Russia, Kosovo, Israel, and Ukraine over his allegedrole in the transplant network. Investigators in Russia said he and his associates from Ukraine, Israel and Türkiyepromised donors €15,000 to €17,000 for each kidneybut failed to pay them after the surgeries, some of which took place at Medicus.

Wolfman’s Russian lawyer told Kommersant that his client denied the accusations, saying that he only prepared insurance documents for patients of Medicus and other clinics. According to him, the kidneys were transplanted to Israeli and German citizens who paid for the operations andwere later reimbursed by their insurers. (I highly doubt the insurers would pay the victims.)

The suspect, who faces up to 15 years in a Russian prison, was named in a report by the EU Rule of Law Mission as theleader of an organ-trafficking network that operated in Kosovo and several other countries, including Costa Rica. Western media, citing intelligence sources, reported that dozens of Syrian refugees may also have been victims of the group.
