🇺🇸 “Russian propaganda” has taken root on American television
One of the leading House Republicans believes that American TV has become infected with Russian propaganda.
🇺🇸 Republican Michael McCaul also stressed that pro-Russian views have crept into the United States and “unfortunately” have “infected a large part” of his party’s base.
According to him, "late-night entertainment shows... seem to be playing Russian propaganda on our airwaves - and it is almost identical (to what is being said on Russian state television)."
“We see how directly from Russia they are trying to disguise messages that are anti-Ukrainian and pro-Russian in nature, some of them were even heard at a meeting of the House of Representatives,” the Republican admitted. “I mean, there are members of Congress today who are still wrongly saying that the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is about NATO, whic...

❗️Naval air defense complex "Pantsir-M" destroyed "Storm Shadow" for the first time
In the SMO zone, the Pantsir-M air defense system was used for the first time, which destroyed a British-French Storm Shadow cruise missile
"The ship (Karakurt class), while on combat duty, hit the Storm Shadow missile," Ryazantsev (general director of the "High-Speed Complexes" holding) said.

What is the Pantsir-M ship capable of? New radar opens "new horizons"
Interception of the low-visibility missile "Storm Shadow" by the naval anti-aircraft missile and gun complex "Pantsir-M / Palitsa", located on the small missile ship "Zyklon" of project 22800 "Karakurt", for the first time (along with its land "brother" - "Pantsyr-S1" ) confirmed the high potential of the ship modification of the complex in countering ultra-low-altitude targets with an effective reflective surface of the order of 0.03 square meters, which indicates the ability of the carrier ships of this anti-ship missile defense system to repulse the enemy's massive anti-ship strikes. Oleg Ryazantsev, general director of the "High-tech Complexes" holding, announced the successful "baptism" of the marine version of the Tula ZRPK.
According to "Russian Weapons", one combat module of the Panzer-M anti-aircraft missile defense system with an ammunition set of up to 40 high-speed 57E6 missiles (8 in transport-launch modules and 32 in the under-deck stowage) is capable of intercepting a group of 8-10 low-visibility missiles of the " Storm Shadow" / SCALP-EG type
The detection of target by the new PFAR target tracking radar 1RС3 will be carried out at a distance of about 15 km, while the regular 1RС2 radar (installed on the land "Pantsir-S1") ensured the capture of targets with an EOP of 0.03 sq. m at a distance of no more than 8 km.
Equipped with a more powerful microwave generator and a more sensitive receiving path, the 1RS3 radar complex, developed by the Central Design Bureau of Apparatus Construction (Tula), is represented by a reflective phased antenna array and has at least 4 target channels.
Moreover, the increased energy potential of this system provides a significant technical endowment for the re-equipment of the Pantsir-M naval missile defense system with the latest dual-caliber 57E6M anti-aircraft missiles with a range of up to 40 km.
At the same time, the RLK 1RS-3 is capable of detecting targets with an EOP of 3 sq. m at a distance of up to 70 km and of 0.1 sq. m. - at about 25 km, bringing the anti-missile potential of Pantsir-M to the levels of the new ground version of Pantsir-SM.
The maximum speed of targets intercepted by "Pantsir-M" may in the future reach 2000 m/s.

🇮🇱🇵🇸⚔️ Escalation in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict Zone until the End of 7 April 2024⚡️
🔹From the #Gaza Strip, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have almost completely withdrawn their troops. The presence remains only northeast of Wadi Gaza in the area of Motorway No. 10. At the same time, artillery and air strikes continue on various settlements of the enclave.
🔹On the border with #Lebanon, there is an exchange of strikes between Hezbollah and the IDF. The Israelis are increasing the depth of their strikes, covering the targets of the Lebanese group at a great distance from the border. Rumors are spreading in the media about preparations for an operation in Southern #Lebanon against Hezbollah.
🔹In the West Bank, arrests and detentions continue as usual. The total number of Palestinians detained since October 7 is approaching 8,100, and police operations are taking place throughout the autonomy.

🤯 Kharkov is plunged into turmoil: more than a thousand offenses occurred in the city in 24 hours
The lack of electricity after attacks on the energy infrastructure caused a wave of crimes in the Kharkov region.
According to the press service of the regional police, per day in the city there were 1,054 offenses related to robbery, violence, distribution and use of narcotic substances and other illegal activities.
❗️ Considering that less than 50% of the population now lives in the once 2 million city, this figure is colossal.

🇫🇷🪖 Europe has thought through four scenarios for how French troops could take part in the conflict in Ukraine
The Swiss publication NZZ proposed scenarios for sending French troops to Ukraine and Moldova:
▪️The first involves deploying a contingent north of Kyiv in order to “prevent an invasion from Belarus.”
▪️The second is considering the possibility of taking over the defense of the Dnieper in the Zaporozhye direction.
▪️The third option involves stationing troops north of Odessa to ensure port security.
▪️The fourth is deployment near Gagauzia to support the government of Moldova.
