🚫 Kiev Faces Fresh Graft Allegations over Military Uniforms

Ukraine’s Defense Ministry have been accused of buying uniforms for inflated prices during the war with Russia, according to media reports.

The ministry signed a contract late last year with a Turkish company to supply winter combat fatigues, but the price tripled following the inking of the deal.

One of the owners of the Turkish company is Oleksandre Kassai, a nephew of Gennadi Kassai, who is a member of the same party as President Zelensky, Ukrainian journalists discovered.

Kiev’s Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov has labelled the accusations as false and said the billed prices corresponded to those advertised…🤔

😳 Live Worm 🪱 Found in Woman’s Brain in Australia

A 64-year-old English woman - who was living in New South Wales, 🇦🇺 - was admitted to hospital in January 2021 after three weeks of abdominal pain and diarrhoea, followed by a dry cough and night sweats.

By 2022, her symptoms had evolved to include forgetfulness and depression, prompting medical professionals to refer her to Canberra hospital.

An MRI scan of her brain revealed that a motile helminth - a parasitic roundworm - was living in the right frontal lobe lesion of her brain – which surgeons later successfully removed.

Medical professionals suspect the woman inadvertently ingested the 🪱 eggs by eating edible grasses that were tainted with snake faeces, however, the actual cause cannot be confirmed.

Vivek Ramaswamy – top 3 in terms of popularity among GOP supporters for the party’s presidential nomination – has stated that he will accept Russian control of the Donbass and pledge to block Ukraine’s candidacy for NATO.

In exchange… for Moscow exiting its military alliance with Beijing, "the longer the war in Ukraine goes on, it becomes ever clearer that there is only one winner: China,” Ramaswamy declared.

One thing is becoming very clear, Kiev’s access to American taxpayers’ cash will end if a GOP candidate becomes the next 🇺🇸 president. 💥

New Space Race: Nations Battling to Mine Precious Minerals Below the Lunar Surface – Estimated to Be Worth Quadrillions 🌔

From rare Earth metals used in smartphones to helium that could perhaps provide an invaluable source of energy, the lunar surface is a multi-quadrillion-dollar hotbed of unearthed riches.

🇮🇳, 🇷🇺, 🇪🇺, the 🇺🇸 & 🇨🇳 - as well as private firms – all want a slice of the moon pie.

Previous attempts to govern the Moon have failed to garner international consensus - with neither the US, Russia nor China signing the Moon Agreement of 1979.

It is estimated that there are more than 400 public and private moon missions planned between 2022 and 2032 - many of these include plans for permanent lunar bases to assess and begin utilising the natural satellite's resources.
