☢️ US to Send Radioactive Depleted-Uranium Munitions to Ukraine

In keeping with its total indifference to the lives of the people of Ukraine, the Biden admin will send cancer-causing depleted uranium rounds to Kiev. (Reuters citing documents and US officials)

Depleted uranium rounds are fired from the main gun of tanks like the M1 Abrams and will be used to pierce the armor of Russia’s tanks – with delivery expected in Ukraine in the coming weeks.

The UN reported last year that depleted uranium’s “chemical toxicity” can “cause skin irritation, kidney failure, and increase the risks of cancer.”

❗️Kiev Fails with Crimea Bridge Attack: Russia Destroys Ukrainian Sea Drones

Three naval drones were destroyed in another attempt to destroy the civilian infrastructure which links Crimea to Russia's mainland for road and rail.

🇷🇺's Defense Ministry announced "a terrorist strike" involved semi-submersible unmanned boats.

An attack in July killed two civilians including a child.

🇩🇪 Electricity Imports Hit Record High as Nuclear Phase-Out Increases Production Costs ⚡️

Germany purchased a record 6,505 gigawatt hours from abroad in August, according to its Federal Network Agency.

Berlin has replaced much of the electricity produced by its recently closed nuclear power stations with imports, almost half of which – rather ironically – is produced using nuclear power and fossil fuels.

Chancellor Olaf Scholz sought to play down concerns over rising imports back in July, claiming that “every year there are phases in which we buy electricity from other countries.”

However, electricity imports have increased significantly since the closure of the country’s nuclear power plants on April 15.

🤨 Secret 🇬🇧 Govt Unit to Monitor Online Covid Lockdown Critics Worked with Britain’s Intel Agencies

A govt unit accused of suppressing free speech during the pandemic worked with Britain’s security services, senior civil servants have confirmed.

Documents submitted to the Covid inquiry and marked “official sensitive” reveal that the “UK intelligence community” has been involved in the Counter-Disinformation Unit (CDU) since it was founded in 2019.

The intelligence community – which includes MI6, MI5 and GCHQ – continued “working closely” with the CDU “where appropriate” during this time, documents show.

Like something out of East Germany in the 1960s...

🧐Joe Using Deadly Storms for Cheap Political Points? Biden to Visit Hurricane-Hit Florida & Lies About Meeting DeSantis

The 🇺🇸 president will head to Florida on Saturday, but his visit will not include a meeting with Governor Ron DeSantis - despite Joe Biden telling reporters at the White House the exact opposite.

The US state is surveying the aftermath of hurricane 🌀 Idalia. But it seems even a disaster of such a scale isn't enough to put politics to the side for corrupt ol' Joe.

DeSantis's spokesman confirmed there was no such plan for a meeting, adding that it wouldn't take place because the security required for Biden would hinder the recovery effort.

So while Biden delayed visiting Hawaii for ages, politics is all the storm in Florida as he and Jill go to visit residents.

💲US Approves $1.5BN in Armored Vehicles to Bulgaria 🇧🇬 as Washington Ramps Up Military Hardware for NATO’s Eastern Front

The 🇺🇸 State Dept informed Congress of its green light to Bulgaria’s request to buy 183 Stryker vehicles, more than half of them infantry carrier vehicles.

The sale comes a month after Bulgaria, which has large stocks of Soviet weaponry, agreed to send around 100 armored personnel carriers to Ukraine.

Washington also recently approved $12bn in Apache attack helicopters and earlier agreed to sell advanced Abrams tanks to Poland 🇵🇱 as it continues to stoke division in Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia, Africa and more - for the benefit of its military industrial complex masters.

🚩 Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 Set to Hold Referendum on Nuclear Plant Construction

The Central Asian nation will take the decision on whether to build its first nuclear plant to the nation, President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has revealed - adding that the referendum date would be decided later.

🇰🇿 has already identified a planned location for the facility in the southeastern Almaty region and mentioned Russia's Rosatom as a potential partner.

However, some activists oppose the project because of safety concerns and Kazakhstan's history as home to the Soviet-operated Semei nuclear weapons testing ground.

⛔️ Worldwide Lithium Shortage Could Occur as Soon as 2025

As need for the metal ramps up - global demand could exceed supply by 2025, a report by Fitch Solutions states.

China is one of the main producers of lithium - an integral element in electric vehicles - but its mining capabilities are set to stall and provide a mere third of its requirements in the near future.

EV sales are set to reach 13.8mn in 2023, but will subsequently proceed to skyrocket to over 30mn by 2030.

No wonder there is a new space race for mining on the Moon…
