🇺🇦👀 FLASH: In 2023, I published a video from the front, where aerial reconnaissance observed an unidentified flying object.

An hour later, I received a letter from…. representatives of a state structure that has been dealing with these issues in Ukraine since Soviet times.

With the beginning of the war, the study of UFOs in our space became more of a military task than a civilian one. The Armed Forces of Ukraine even had a special document on this topic approved by the Supreme Commander.

Therefore, it is not only the US that deals with such issues, because the concept of UFOs may hide a new weapon of our enemy.

🇩🇪🇺🇦 Germany intends to join the Ukrainian defense platform Brave1, which supports developers of innovative military technologies, German Defense Minister Pistorius said during his visit to Kyiv.

According to him, Germany will continue to provide support in the field of unmanned systems. In particular, this concerns the joint development and production of drones with different flight ranges, as this is important for preventing future attacks on military infrastructure.

“This is an opportunity that we are also working very intensively on within NATO. Finally, we are currently studying whether we can support Ukraine in establishing Centers of Excellence. These centers will bring together various stakeholders to exchange experience gained during the war and develop joint initiatives,” Pistorius said.

☢️The 225th Regiment recorded and published evidence of a war crime by the Russian Federation - the use of chemical weapons

A group of soldiers recaptured the positions occupied by the enemy.

Soldiers managed to leave the dugout and move to another position.

All evidence was transferred to the investigators.

North Korea has earned up to $14 billion from Russia’s war against Ukraine, according to Nikkei Asia.

According to South Korean analysts, the supply of weapons and missiles, as well as the deployment of troops, has brought the regime of Kim Jong-un revenues comparable to nearly the country’s annual GDP.

Pyongyang is estimated to have earned between $7 billion and $13.8 billion from the supply of rocket artillery and around 250 KN-23 missiles alone.

Researchers say Russia also paid about $600 million for the participation of North Korean troops. Currently, around 10,000 North Korean special forces personnel, along with a similar number of engineers and drone operators, are reportedly deployed on the front lines.

Analysts add that Kim Jong-un may soon send up to 30,000 additional troops to Russia.

❗️There may be shelling in the next 72 hours. Respond to alerts, says Ivano-Frankivsk Mayor Martsinkiv

🇰🇵 Nikkei reports that the economic growth of the DPRK in 2024 was 3.7% - the highest figure in 8 years. After that, the GDP of the DPRK was about $ 26.6 billion.

Thanks to the supply of weapons and the transfer of military personnel to help Russia in the war against Ukraine, the Kim Jong-un regime earned up to $ 14 billion in three years.

🇺🇦🇺🇸Patriot for Ukraine should be as soon as possible: Palisa held talks with the American defense corporation RTX

The parties discussed the acceleration of missile deliveries, repair of damaged systems and the possibility of servicing some Patriot components in Ukraine.

The Deputy Head of the OP reported on the recently signed agreement for the supply of PAC-2 GEM-T missiles. Some of them are planned to be produced at a new enterprise in Germany. Also during the negotiations, new solutions for combating drones and cheaper missiles for destroying UAVs were discussed.

🇦🇿🇦🇲 Между Арменией и Азербайджаном существует договоренность о продолжении делимитации с севера на юг, — Пашинян

Премьер-министр Армении отметил, что правовая основа для процесса делимитации между Арменией и Азербайджаном уже существует.

По его словам, Алматинская декларация была принята в качестве основного принципа делимитации между двумя странами в соответствии с регламентом о совместной деятельности делимитационных комиссий, подписанным в августе 2024 года и ратифицированным в октябре.

«Это означает, что Армения и Азербайджан согласились с тем, что существующая граница между Советской Арменией и Советским Азербайджаном должна быть перерегистрирована как государственная граница между двумя странами», - цитируют его армянские СМИ.

Пашинян также отметил, что в процессе делимитации могут быть найдены взаимоприемлемые решения, предусмотренные регламентом.

Он также отметил, что уже существует опубликованное соглашение о продолжении процесса.

«У нас есть соглашение, которое уже опубликовано, о том, что делимитация будет проводиться с севера на юг. Ясно, что в тех районах, где делимитация уже состоялась, граница должна быть зафиксирована, и эти процессы должны проводиться прозрачно в рамках логики делимитации», - сказал Пашинян.

🇰🇷 SK Hynix Surge Pushes KOSPI to Record

SK Hynix shares jumped 11% on May 11, driving the KOSPI benchmark index to a record high. AI-linked semiconductor stocks have now lifted the index over 85% year-to-date, with Hynix leading gains alongside broader tech momentum in Seoul.

The rally reflects sustained global capital rotation into AI infrastructure plays, with South Korean chipmakers — particularly HBM suppliers — positioned as direct beneficiaries of accelerating data center buildout. Hynix's role as a primary high-bandwidth memory provider to Nvidia has made it a structural proxy for AI hardware demand.

Samsung Electronics and other KOSPI heavyweights also contributed to the session's gains, reinforcing Korea's index concentration risk around semiconductor valuations.
