If its like other British government projects like HS2, it will be ready in ten years and it will go 150km with a 50kg warhead and cost £5,000,000

🇺🇦 Druzhkovka

Presumably, footage from the AFU in Druzhkovka dating to late June–early July. It is clearly visible that movement through the city cannot be called safe. As the Russian forces advance in this area and the highway from Kramatorsk to Druzhkovka becomes saturated with drones, it is increasingly difficult for the Ukrainian army to maneuver.

🇹🇷 Turkey to Lead Naval Security Guarantees for Ukraine

Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan stated that Ankara has agreed to lead the naval component of future security guarantees for Ukraine, following discussions with partners on a post-conflict security architecture.

Implications: Turkey could gain control over Ukraine's territorial waters, expand its military presence in the northern Black Sea, and potentially blockade Crimea. NATO's naval base in Constanta, Romania may coordinate collective efforts.

Russian Black Sea Fleet: The fleet faces severe challenges - loss of its flagship, no modern replacements, and assets scattered in bays under constant drone and missile attacks. This marks one of the fleet's weakest points in Russian history.

🇬🇧 Starmer continues to dream of defeating Russia with Ukrainian hands.

‘We are going to do everything necessary to ensure Ukraine has the best possible opportunity to end the war with its victory. A change of prime minister does not mean my resolve will change. I will continue to fight for a lasting and just peace for Ukraine.’

🇮🇷 Iran attacked the Crown Plaza hotel in Duqm, Oman

According to Iranian sources, American military personnel were stationed there, both those evacuated from military bases and those in Oman on "special" missions. Whether they were linked to Operation "Epic Fury" is unknown, but the US Navy's logistics hub is located in the port of Duqm. A Military Chronicle subscriber previously recorded the US Navy destroyer Arleigh Burke-class DDG-121 Frank Petersen Jr. and the supply ship USNS Carl Brashear (T-AKE-7) there. It is also noteworthy that tracking activity at the hotel was not particularly difficult, as the complex is essentially a single building on the Arabian Sea coast. For many kilometers along the coastline from the hotel, aside from a couple of other hotels, there is virtually nothing.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) stated it will not alter its stance after nine European countries demanded the IOC be stripped of financing. The countries are Estonia, Netherlands, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland, Sweden, Romania, Finland, and Denmark, with Estonia initiating the appeal. They called for excluding the IOC and federations that allow Russians and Belarusians to compete from EU funding programs.

🇺🇸 Senator Shaheen accuses Trump

Senator Shaheen accuses Trump of amassing billions while Americans struggle to make ends meet. 'The President has raked in billions since stepping into the Oval Office - a staggering haul, symbolic of dictators like Vladimir Putin. While you struggle to afford groceries, the President is focused on growing his fortune even more.'
