RT @clashreport: Denmark’s PM Mette Frederiksen:

There is a total established link between power, political power, capital, tech giants and AI. And the purpose of this is undermining democracy.

That's the goal because the people who are developing this stuff are against democracy.

I met Sam Altman a couple of years ago. I spent hours with him and at the end of the discussion I said to him, "You have created a monster."

And he said, "Yes, and now it's up to you to find out how to deal with it."

Iran: A gas explosion in a residential building in Andisheh injured at least 4 people. The fire department says the blast hit the third floor of a 40-unit complex and was likely caused by a gas leak. Injuries may increase. https://twitter.com/Osint613/status/2061191302306230553/photo/1

Zelensky is urging Washington to allow Ukraine to manufacture Patriot missiles under license because U.S. production of Patriot interceptors is too low to meet current threats, warning that Russia is producing missiles at a much faster rate.

According to the New York Times, citing U.S. officials, U.S. forces have guided approximately 70 commercial vessels, both ways, through the Strait of Hormuz in the last three weeks. Per the report, most of the vessels transited with their transponders off to avoid being targeted by Iranian fires and also transited closer to Oman, away from routes designated by Iran’s Persian Gulf Strait Authority.

RT @SinoTalk: The Shandong would have between 10 and 12 J-35s, with the Liaoning having at least 10, so they would have a similar composition to the Fujian carrier wing. However, the Liaoning and Shandong carriers would still use the Z-18J helicopter for Airborne Warning and Control (AWEC).

RT @SinoTalk: The joint PCG/USCG patrol around Scarborough Shoal is significant because it demonstrates that the United States is willing to deploy white hulls to assist the Philippines in enforcing its territorial sovereignty over the feature.

🚨 HAPPENING NOW — 1st-ever US Coast Guard-Philippine Coast Guard joint patrol challenging PRC's exclusion zone at Scarborough Shoal

🇺🇸🇵🇭 For what appears to be the 1st time, a @USCG cutter is operating directly alongside the @coastguardph in a joint presence operation challenging Beijing's exclusion zone around #ScarboroughShoal (Bajo de Masinloc).

🛰️ Automatic Identification System tracking data from @StarboardIntel shows the USCG cutter Midgett sortieing from Manila Bay on 28 May alongside PCG cutter BRP Melchora Aquino & taking station on the western approaches to the shoal starting yesterday, 29 May and holding roughly 35-40 nm out.

🇵🇭 Also visible in the operation are PCG patrol vessel BRP Cabra & Bureau of Fisheries & Aquatic Resources BRP Datu Pagbuaya (now returning to Manila Bay, followed closely by CCG 21563). History suggests others may also be involved but operating "AIS-dark".

🇨🇳 Arrayed against them is a layered Chinese paramilitary cordon: at least 9 CCG cutters are visible on AIS forming an outer picket line 20-40nm from the shoal, while at least 7 large militia vessels are visible forming an inner cordon 5-17nm out.

🇨🇳 Past experience strongly suggests PLA Navy vessels (not visible on AIS) are also in the area, but will likely keep their distance to ensure no repeats of the disastrous 11 August 2025 "friendly fire" collision near Scarborough.

🤝 This direct involvement by the USCG in a Philippine challenge to China's maritime aggression inside the West Philippine Sea is a significant step forward for the alliance.
