#️⃣ 🇨🇳 China has completed the first phase of construction on Antelope Reef in the disputed South China Sea, creating a nearly 6-km-long artificial island with a deep-water harbor and what could become a runway.

While Beijing says the site will support civilian activities, analysts believe it could significantly strengthen China’s military presence and surveillance capabilities in the region, including in a potential Taiwan conflict.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump on Kim Jong Un:

The fact that I get along well with Kim Jong Un is a good thing.

He has 57 very powerful nuclear weapons. Should have never allowed it to happen, but he’s got them.

I get along with him very well. I know Kim Jong Un very well. He is gonna be fine.

As long as we have a smart president, he is gonna be fine. If we have a dumb president, then he is probably not gonna be so fine.

#️⃣ 🇺🇸 An Army unit at Fort Stewart, Georgia, is offering soldiers a four-day pass to play GTA VI if they reenlist for at least two years.

Twenty soldiers have already taken the deal, which is timed around the game’s Nov. 19 release.

About 130 are eligible.

#️⃣ 🇺🇸 U.S. federal debt hit $40 trillion.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

No one has given the Islamic Republic of Iran a greater opportunity to make a Deal than me. TRAGICALLY, for them, they have failed to take it.

Therefore, today, I am announcing the MOST CRUSHING ECONOMIC OPERATION EVER TAKEN AGAINST ANY COUNTRY! This will be Economic Warfare and Isolation on an unprecedented scale.

Their navy is gone, their air force is destroyed, their military factories are now rubble, their currency is worthless, and their country is hanging by a thread.

Today, I am also announcing that ANY country that allows its financial institutions, businesses, airports, or government entities to provide any type of lifeline to Iran will itself face TREMENDOUS Economic Consequences. Oil smuggling, swap lines, cash transfers, exchange houses, ship registries, front companies — It all needs to stop NOW. You know who you are.

This will be an ECONOMIC D-DAY, and we need all of our Allies to stand with the United States of America to isolate, and defeat, the Iran threat.

These maniacs are on the ropes, and these HISTORIC MEASURES will cripple them and their ability to project terror worldwide. IRAN WILL NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

💬 🇮🇱 Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz:

Erdogan is dragging Türkiye into dangerous adventures in Syria.

Israel will not allow any entity to threaten its security.

It is preferable for Erdogan to continue delivering empty, delusional speeches against Israel in the Turkish parliament rather than testing Israel's resolve to defend itself.

💬 🇮🇷 Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi:

The so-called “Economic D-Day” is a diversion from America's own crisis: unprecedented debt & surging interest costs.

Doubling down on failed policies will only bring further defeat—and enmity of Iranians. US economic terrorism threatens global economy and sovereignty worldwide.

#️⃣ South Korea estimates North Korea has 80–120 nuclear warheads, far above Trump’s figure of 57.

Seoul says the estimate comes from private research and is not officially confirmed by its military.

💬 🇮🇷 Iranian MP Ebrahim Rezaei:

The best response to Trump's escalation of the economic war is to withdraw from the NPT.

#️⃣ Taiwan plans to raise 2027 defense spending by 18% to a record T$1.12 trillion ($31.4B), exceeding 3% of GDP.

The increase will fund drones, missiles, and military modernization as China steps up military pressure around the island, but the proposal still faces resistance from Taiwan’s opposition-controlled parliament.

#️⃣ 🇮🇷 IRGC Spokesperson:

The destructive power of the warheads used in the IRGC’s missiles is far greater than those used in previous wars.

If a war begins, our weapons will be completely different from the past in every respect.

💬 🇮🇷 Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi:

They claim Iran is on the brink of collapse and hanging by a thread, yet they beg all their allies to help them!

The problem is the wrong calculations that, each time to cover them up, they’re forced to create a bigger failure for themselves.

The military war didn’t yield results, so now they’ve named the next failure “economic war.”

#️⃣ 🇮🇷 Iran today executed a foreign national, Qaem Hosseini, over charges linked to January’s nationwide protests.

#️⃣ 🇩🇪 Germany’s Bundeswehr is using Döner bags in Berlin as recruitment ads, with camouflage-colored packaging and QR codes linking to its careers website.

The kebab shops get the branded bags for free, while the Bundeswehr says the campaign targets young people, career changers and skilled workers, though its direct impact on applications is difficult to measure.

💬 🇹🇷 Turkish MoD:

We state that there was no Turkish military delegation present at the Abu al-Duhur Air Base prior to or during Israel’s attack on the base.

For the peace and stability of both Syria and the region, it is imperative that Israel cease such reckless attacks and comply with its obligations under international law.

#️⃣ A humanoid robot preparing for the “Robot Olympics” in Beijing runs too fast to stop, crashes into a safety cushion, and breaks its waist.

#️⃣ A robot appears to suffer a seizure at the World Robot Conference in Beijing after its remote control stops working and the operators struggle to shut it down.

💬 🇮🇷 Senior Iranian MP Ebrahim Azizi:

We are watching your every move. Any further mistake or miscalculation will carry consequences far greater than before.

End your presence in the region immediately, before it is too late, and accept Iran’s new regional order.

#️⃣ UKMTO:

A tanker 136 NM east of Al Mukalla, Yemen was boarded by six armed individuals after reporting an unauthorised approach.

The attackers seized control and redirected the vessel toward Somalia.
