🇿🇼 Mnangagwa Appoints Retired Army Commander Sibanda to Zanu-PF Politburo

Zimbabwe President Emmerson Mnangagwa has appointed retired Zimbabwe Defence Forces commander General Philip Valerio Sibanda to the ruling Zanu-PF Politburo with immediate effect. The appointment was announced by party spokesperson Christopher Mutsvangwa, who cited Article 9, Section 65 as read with Section 67 of the Zanu-PF Constitution as the legal basis for the decision.

The Politburo is one of Zanu-PF's highest decision-making organs, responsible for shaping party policy and strategic direction. Sibanda is regarded as one of Zimbabwe's most senior military figures of recent decades.

Зеленский встретился c генеральным директором американского IT-гиганта Palantir Technologies Алексом Карпом.

Компания Palantir является разработчиком военной ИИ-платформы Maven Smart Systems (MSS), которая занимается сбором и анализом разведданных из всевозможных источников, включая спутниковые снимки, фото, видео, сообщения, данные с дронов и радиоперехваты, а зачем выдает информацию военным для принятия решения о нанесении удара или иных действий.

Как недавно стало известно, MSS занималась наблюдением за ВС РФ в приграничье Украины еще в 2021 году и уже на территории Украины в ходе СВО после.

Ukrainian-Russian war. Day 1533-1538: 🇺🇦🇷🇺
Situation on Chasov Yar front: During the last week, Russian army has made further advances in Markove, albeit with difficulty due to the Ukrainian presence on the adjacent hills to the north. Meanwhile, the situation in Virolyubivka has become clearer. Following the cessation of attempts by Russian forces to infiltrate the locality, it has gradually come under firm control of Ukrainian army, which has begun to reoccupy positions in the north-eastern plantations.

The ISW reports that Russia used the "truce" to regroup rather than to de-escalate. Combat operations did not cease for a single day. While the "silence regime" was in effect, the Russian Federation brought up reserves and built up personnel. It sharply increased the use of "Molniya" drones - likely stockpiled in advance specifically for this purpose.
