Zelensky:

Ukraine has unique technologies. This is true. And this is a signal.

We are now ready to share them with Donald, with Polish partners — these technologies that we are developing during the war.

Zelensky:

Maybe sometimes we are too direct, but that is because I believe that if you are friends, you have to be open and talk about everything that may be sensitive for both sides.

But we need to be mature partners.

We focus on the most important thing: We are friends, and Russia is the enemy.

A Russian S-400 air defence system launcher was reportedly destroyed in Bryansk Oblast, ~90 km from Ukrainian border.

China still says the Philippine ship caused it.

BIG: Iran, China, and Israeli firms ran first-of-their-kind AI influence campaigns using Chinese open-source models (including DeepSeek) to create autonomous "agents" that handled every stage — from opening fake social media accounts to coordinating messaging — with minimal human involvement.

The AI agents created networks of fake accounts across Instagram, Facebook, X, and TikTok, posting about politics and current events to sway opinions.

Iran's campaign was most concerning.

Agents posed as everyday Americans in major cities, tagged journalists and politicians, spread anti-Republican memes, and gained ~80,000 followers in H1 2026.

One Israeli campaign was run by IntelEye (founded by NSO Group alumni) using DeepSeek to control thousands of accounts posting both pro- and anti-Netanyahu content ahead of Israel's October elections. IntelEye claims it was "defensive research."
