As labor becomes extremely tight across Europe various EU militaries without conscription will find it harder and harder to meet minimum recruitment targets. The demographic crisis could become a national security one as well.

🇮🇷🇺🇲 The Iranians claim that they so shook the Hemo base in Syria with their attacks that the Pentagon decided to evacuate it. Therefore, there have been no comments yet from the Lloyd-Austin house.

In fact, Iran had previously forced the United States to reduce the number of bases in Iraq through regular attacks by Iranian proxies on logistics convoys and the bases themselves. The United States decided to switch to a more compact option based on Iraqi Kurdistan, but this did not save them from attacks. Iran's calculation is based on the fact that while the Iraqi government will demand the withdrawal of US troops from Iraq, strikes by the Hashd Shaabi militia and others will give this process additional acceleration. Iran's ultimate goal in Iraq is to force the complete withdrawal of the United States and its satellites from Iraq.

The United States is trying to at least maintain the existing status quo. After the start of Israel's aggression against the Gaza Strip, it became very difficult to support it. The bases in the occupied Syrian territories are very dependent on the US position in Iraq. If a withdrawal begins from there, it will make the withdrawal from Syria inevitable.

Therefore, against the background of chatter about the reluctance to get involved in a war with Iran, the United States recently sent another 1,500 soldiers and officers to the Middle East.

🇳🇪🇷🇺 Niger's Ministry of Defense said it would intensify joint efforts to stabilize the region with the Russian Ministry of Defense.
The Russian Ministry of Defense also confirms the agreements reached.

Taking into account the deployment of the Afrika Korps and the Wagner PMC in the region, it is not difficult to assume that we will soon see interesting footage with a Russian flavor from liberated Niger. Well, let’s not forget about free Niger uranium.

It is worth noting that, against the backdrop of the collapse of the French colonial empire, the United States is intensifying measures to strengthen its military presence in Africa and is negotiating the creation of a number of military bases in West Africa. So there will be competition there just like in the good old days.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Video of the use of reusable FPV drones on Ukrainian soldiers and positions.

Reusability is ensured by the drone dropping some very powerful ammunition, which literally blows the enemy apart, and the drone itself then returns for more.

Beware, tough shots.

🇵🇰🇮🇷 Pakistan has expressed irritation at Iran's strikes on Baloch militant bases on its soil. But apparently, apart from diplomatic demarches, there will be no more serious consequences. Pakistan cursed in much the same way when the United States bombed the Taliban on its territory. And in both cases, the presence of nuclear weapons in Pakistan did not stop anyone.

🇫🇷🇺🇦 Macron said that in February 2024 France will supply Ukraine with another 40 SCALP missiles and more than 100 adjustable bombs.
Since missiles are consumed + partially destroyed on the ground, deliveries of cruise missiles must be regular in order to preserve the ability of the Ukrainian Armed Forces to launch missile strikes on new regions and Crimea.

🇷🇺🇺🇦🇫🇷 The Russian Ministry of Defense reported that one of the night high-precision attack in Kharkov occurred at a location where mercenaries from France were quartered. More than 60 people were declared killed and more than 20 wounded were taken to hospitals.

🇷🇺🇺🇦⚡A channel dedicated to the Marines of the 810th Sevastopol Brigade reports that our Marines have made progress in Krynki and even planted a flag there.

“The 2nd company of the DShB of the 810th GVOBRMP hoisted the flag of the Russian Federation in the center of Krynoki!
And the 810th BMP arrived, occupied and attacked enemy positions in the northern part of the village of Krynki!"

Let's wait for confirmatory photos/videos from the village.

🇺🇦 Zelensky clearly hinted that there will certainly be attempts to round up everyone they can in Europe and return to Ukraine. And it is absolutely obvious that in 2024-2025 there will be attempts to forcibly transport refugees to Ukraine to Zelensky’s slaughterhouse.

Therefore, for ordinary refugees of conscription and mobilization age, it is already highly desirable to consider the issue of legal termination of any relations with Ukraine or departure to those countries from which extradition to Ukraine will not be guaranteed. Including Russia and Belarus.
