🇦🇫 Opium cultivation in Afghanistan has all but stopped, falling 95% since the Taliban (under UN sanctions for extremism) outlawed poppy production last year, the UN Office on Drugs and Crime said.
"Opium cultivation fell across all parts of the country, from 233,000 hectares to just 10,800 hectares in 2023. The decrease has led to a corresponding 95 per cent drop in the supply of opium, from 6,200 tons in 2022 to just 333 tons in 2023," a new research brief read.
The Taliban pledged to wipe out poppy cultivation after they came to power in August 2021 and imposed a ban in April 2022. Revenues from poppy harvesting by Afghan farmers fell by more than $1 billion to $110 million this year.

UN envoy for Afghanistan Roza Otunbayeva said nearly 80% of the Afghan population depended on agriculture. This means that Afghanistan needs more investment to provide farmers with opportunities away from opium.

📋🇷🇺🇺🇦⚔️ Two Majors #Report for the Morning of 6 November 2023; pub. 07:00📍

▪️
The RF Armed Forces carried out a massive attack at night using rocket weapons and Geranium UAVs. The enemy's facilities in #Odessa were hit. They included warehouses with weapons and ammunition, factory premises and port infrastructure. The enemy's air defence failed, again the footage of AFU anti-aircraft missiles falling to the ground was caught on video.

▪️ In the #Kherson region the RF Armed Forces destroy the enemy with artillery fire and air strikes in the areas of the settlements of #Lvovo, #Tyaginka, #Kherson, where the enemy concentrates its forces before crossing the #Dnieper. The enemy holds the same small areas of terrain on our bank as before, there is fighting. The infantry of the AFU is being supplied with "Baba Yaga" drones, and the enemy has no shortage of FPV drones, hunting for our equipment. A new element is the concentration of the enemy northeast of the known combat zone in the vicinity of the village of #Respublikanets (the enemy bank of the #Dnieper). Artillery of the RF Armed Forces has also been working on these enemy positions for the last few days.

▪️ On the #Zaporozhye front, fighting near #Verbovoye. The enemy is trying to disrupt our defence system with artillery fire, there are always attack drones in the air. In the area of #Orekhov the AFU is concentrating attack forces, a new wave of enemy attacks is expected.

▪️ In the #Vremyevka sector, positional battles continue.

▪️ In the #Avdeyevka sector there are local battles. The enemy positions in the villages of #Novokalinovo and #Keramik on the northern flank are under massive fire from our MLRS. It is reported about the arrival of units of nationalist formations and enemy special forces to the southern section of the #Avdeyevka direction.

▪️ In the #Kursk region, the AFU shelled the village of #Guyevo, Suzhansky district. In the #Bryansk region, an aircraft-type UAV was destroyed over the Starodubsky municipal district by air defence means. In the #DPR, two civilians were killed by Nazi fire and an adult and a teenager were wounded.

▪️Zelensky, in an interview with NBC News, addressed the US, EU and Asian countries with a proposal to organize joint production of air defense systems

In the meantime, he asked “to send them to Ukraine to use or at least lease them out for the winter.”
Zelensky asked to rent air defense in mid-October. After this, the speaker of the Ukrainian Air Force Ignat confirmed that Kiev plans to lease air defense for the winter. It looks like something didn't work out.

🇷🇺 Revenues to the Russian budget from gas and oil doubled in October compared to September. The price ceiling introduced by the G7 countries is in fact not respected, writes the Wall Street Journal.

These revenues go to finance the war in Ukraine and strengthen the economy.

Russia's shadow fleet already consists of 180 tankers. The largest oil buyers - China, India and Turkey - do not comply with Western price caps.

In addition, Russia is increasing its share of insurance for oil supplies outside the G7 countries. If in January this concerned 35% of supplies, now they are more than half.

Russian oil has recently been selling at a price of about $74 per barrel, with the “ceiling” set by the West at 60.

"As a condition to enter Gaza under IDF air support, outlets have to submit all materials and footage to the #Israeli military for review prior to publication. CNN has agreed to these terms...."

CNN reveals that all content by journalists accompanying the IOF in #Gaza should be approved by the military before publication, which contrasts with the freedom of the press. https://t.me/QudsNen

🇪🇺 Euro zone recession fears harden - Reuters

The downturn in euro zone business activity accelerated last month as demand in the dominant services industry weakened further, a survey showed on Monday, suggesting there is a growing chance of a recession in the 20-country currency union.

The economy contracted 0.1% in the third quarter, official data has shown, and Monday's final Composite Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) for October indicated the bloc entered the final quarter of 2023 on the back foot.

On Israel TV the psychological torture of Palestinian civilians as showcased while the presenters laughed and mocked the men:

Scores of Palestinian civilians are laying on the ground, blindfolded and with their hands tied while a childs song is played on repeat for 8 hours according to the news channel. The presenters argue that those are "Hamas terrorists" when in fact are not militants but neighbours of the occupied territories of the West bank.

Breaking! Barcelona dock workers refuse to load and will block any ships containing war material for Israel and Ukraine:

- The dock workers of the port of Barcelona, from our free and independent organization (OEPB) we want to reiterate once again our absolute rejection of any form of violence.

- As a collective of workers, it is for us an obligation and a commitment to respect and vehemently defend the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, human rights that seem to have been forgotten by the signatory countries of the Magna Carta itself and that are currently being violated in Ukraine, Israel or the Palestinian territory, among other places on the planet.

- This is why we have decided in assembly not to allow the activity of ships containing war material in our port, with the sole purpose of protecting the civilian population, regardless of the territory. No cause justifies the sacrifice of civilians...

🇺🇸🇯🇵☢️ The United States for the first time began purchasing Japanese seafood to supply its military in response to China's ban on importing these seafood after the start of water discharge from the emergency Fukushima-1 nuclear power plant into the ocean.

In introducing the Japanese seafood procurement initiative, U.S. Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel said that “this will be a long-term contract between the U.S. military and fishing cooperatives in Japan.”

Japan's seafood exports totaled ¥387.3 billion in 2022, of which 22.5% or $600 million (¥87.1 billion) came from China, making it the largest export market. Reuters



США впервые начали закупать японские морепродукты для снабжения своих военных в ответ на запрет Китая импортировать данные морепродукты после начала сброса воды с аварийной АЭС «Фукусима-1» в океан

Представляя инициативу по закупкам японских морепродуктов, посол США в Японии Рам Эмануэль заявил, что «это будет долгосрочный контракт между вооруженными силами США и рыболовными кооперативами в Японии».

В 2022 году экспорт морепродуктов из Японии составил 387,3 млрд йен, из которых 22,5% или 600 млн долл (87,1 млрд йен) пришлось на Китай, что сделало его крупнейшим экспортным рынком. Reuters

🇮🇱🇵🇸 Caution: Humanity Under Siege 🚸🌍

The stark image of a caution sign, twisted into a cruel emblem of Palestinian lives dodging the lethal hail of Israeli ordnance, cuts deeper than satire—it's a scathing indictment of reality.

This is no mere conflict; it's a moral collapse, a damning condemnation of the US, whose tacit nods sanction this terror. The charade of neutrality is shattered by each blast in Gaza, each life torn asunder beneath the complicit gaze of American oversight. A ceasefire lies in limbo, held hostage by political machinations, while innocent blood is bartered for odious, strategic interests. The moral onus weighs heavily on a cynical US, whose contempt for innocent life is laid bare for the world to witness.

🇮🇷 Iran slams Israeli minister’s suggestion that nuking Gaza ‘an option’, demands Tel Aviv’s nuclear disarmament.

Tehran has dubbed Israeli cabinet minister Amichai Eliyahu’s comments on the possible use of nuclear weapons in Gaza “an alarm to the whole world,” and called on the international community to take the threat seriously.

The UN Security Council and the International Atomic Energy Agency “must act immediately” to disarm Tel Aviv, Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian has said. For more details on the decades-old back-and-forth Iranian-Israeli nuclear spat, click here.

A Ukrainian POW explained how in the territories occupied by the Ukrainian army, Ukrainian soldiers kidnap and "disappear" Ukrainian civilians who dare to criticise Ukraine or pray Russia:

- They will say that you talk about Russia and you will disappear. And the guys did disappear. One kid said something in his neighborhood among his friends that Putin is cool... two days later the man disappeared. They say, people arrived, some soldiers lived in the village, took him to an educational conversation, and he disappeared.

The Palestinian militants ambushed this morning by the Israeli were members of the Tulkam brigades with its leader Jihad Shehadeh (25) who have been resisting the Israeli raids for the last 3 weeks.

On Shehadeh last video he explained how they fiercely resisted the Israeli incursions. At the end of the video the moment of his assassination, Israeli soldiers finish off the wounded militants that have already crashed their vehicle after been hit by heavy gunfire.

The Tulkaram Brigade was formed as a faction of Al Quds Brigades in 2021, centralising in Tulkaram and its two refugee camps (Tulkaram Camp and Nur Shams Camp) in the West Bank. They were later joined by members of the Al-Qassam Brigades and Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, and merged into one resistance faction which they called the Rapid Response Brigade, vowing to defend the city from Israeli forces.

- The Israeli unable to defeat them in open battle, ambushed them in a busy street.

🇵🇸A Tale of Two Ghettos: A Tale of Hypocrisy

From our own Chay Bowes

During WW2 The Nazis confined 400k Polish Jews into a small region of Warsaw and forced them to live in brutal, inhuman conditions. When they rose in defiance, they were called heroes.

When Israel contains 2 million Palestinians in Gaza, and they rise, they are Terrorists.


The valorization of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising contrasts with the demonization of Palestinian resistance, exposing a cruel double standard. This is not just hypocrisy, it's a deliberate distortion of justice, where the struggle against oppression is celebrated in one breath and condemned in the next.
