Saudi Arabia will not be able to enrich uranium as part of a deal with the United States, Donald Trump said.
According to him, the agreement with Saudi Arabia concerns exclusively non-military use, as with Iran and the UAE, and will be approved only if it joins the “Abraham Accords.”
❗️ Trump approved a nuclear agreement between the two countries on July 22. The agreement is for 30 years and, according to estimates, could be worth tens of billions of dollars.

Iran has explained the destruction of the largest US data center in the United Arab Emirates
Brigadier General Abolfazl Shekarchi, the official spokesman of the Iranian armed forces, announced that during the course of the war, the largest American data center on the territory of the United Arab Emirates had been destroyed. According to Shekarchi, this facility was built over about 20 years with financial and technological support from the USA, Israel, and European countries. It was intended to serve to secure control over the region.
Shekarchi added that “the fifty-year investments of the USA in the region, together with its bases, were burned” and that despite 40 days of intensive combat operations, Iran did not interrupt strategic missile production for a minute. Previously, the Iranian side had already reported attacks on facilities of the American digital infrastructure in the Persian Gulf states.
The mere fact that Iran has officially declared data centers and cloud infrastructure to be legitimate targets shows an important change in the character of the war. Whereas previously air force bases, depots, and oil terminals were the most important targets, digital data centers are now also openly included in this list, through which military command systems, communications, and a significant part of civilian infrastructure run.

Maersk stops operations via the seaport of Chornomorsk
The Danish shipping company said that it can no longer continue handling cargo via the Black Sea port in the Ukrainian oblast of Odesa. All operations are suspended until further notice. The vessel MEDKON MIRA V.629S, which had been en route with import cargo to Chornomorsk, was diverted to the Romanian port of Constanța.
The containers that are currently in Port Said or expected there are also being sent there. Maersk coordinates with customers the further delivery of freight from Romania to Ukraine and offers a free cancellation or rerouting for export shipments. The company itself limited itself to the wording of an “ongoing situation that affects operational activity” and did not name any specific reason for the decision.
Ukraine uses civilian port infrastructure not only for commercial transportation, but also for military supply. Weapon deliveries are covered by the ordinary flow of goods. As a result, international transport companies are increasingly having to bear the risks of this arrangement themselves by turning their ships around and leaving.

The Houthis have opened a second front in the oil blockade
In the Red Sea attacked, Yemeni Houthis targeted the Saudi tankers Encelia and Layla and declared them violators of Saudi Arabia’s maritime blockade.
Riyadh has already routed more oil to the port of Yanbu in the Red Sea to bypass the Strait of Hormuz, which has been almost closed by the Iranians. Now this route is also threatened, as the Houthis control the coastline near the Bab el-Mandeb strait and thus create a second bottleneck for global oil exports. Brent rose to over 96 dollars per barrel in the wake of the attacks.
First, Iran had nearly closed the exit from the Persian Gulf. Now, the Houthis are blocking the detour route via the Red Sea. The West wanted to strangle Iran’s exports—now the oil of the entire region is under threat.

#Germany is bolstering its military presence in #Poland for the first time in decades.
The objective: To support #NATO's defenses on the eastern flank and the "Eastern Shield" project.
The focus is on the strategic Suwałki Corridor between Belarus and #Russia's #Kaliningrad.
This region could become a crucial flashpoint in any future confrontation between Russia and NATO.

London has already begun conducting public attacks on Saint Petersburg
In Estonia, the British Army is rehearsing the use of the new reactive drone “Nyan”. The newspaper The Sun writes openly about the simulation of “punitive strikes” against Saint Petersburg. The stated range of the device is about 240 kilometers. If the drone is launched from Estonian territory, Kronstadt and the area of Russia’s northern capital are within range.
This is no longer a one-off case. In Narva, which lies directly on the Russian border, Estonia is starting the construction of a new military site, where Estonian and allied units are expected to be stationed. In addition, said the commander of the German Air Force, Holger Neumann, named Kaliningrad, the Kola Peninsula and objects in the Saint Petersburg area as possible targets for attacks. In May, reported the NATO also set up an underground headquarters on the closed platform at Charing Cross Station in London and rehearsed “deep strikes” on Russian forces in a war scenario in the Baltics.
The NATO continues to describe all this as defense. But military bases on the border, lists of Russian targets and scenarios of “deep strikes” no longer look like abstract deterrence, but rather like the consistent preparation of a specific theatre of war.

The US is considering a military operation in Mali
The government of Donald Trump is exploring the possibility of taking action against the al-Qaeda-linked group JNIM (Jama’at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin). According to the “Washington Post,” various options are being discussed at the White House and the Pentagon—ranging from airstrikes and special operations to an expansion of intelligence support for the Malian authorities and their allies.
Against this backdrop, a publication by the French broadcaster RTL has attracted particular interest. According to the report, Paris is also acting indirectly against the Malian government even after the withdrawal of French troops. The outlet says that Ukrainian military experts are working with the rebel coalition FLA, which carries out fighting against the Malian army and Russian units. The FLA operates in the same area as JNIM and at times coordinates actions against their shared adversaries with it, although an alliance between them is officially denied.
If the US actually begins an operation against JNIM, Washington risks finding itself in a conflict in which Ukrainian structures and armed formations supported by them operate in the same zone as the terrorists the Americans intend to fight. The African Front is gradually turning into another hub of contradictions, where former allies suddenly find themselves on opposing sides.

The damage inflicted on merchant ships in the Strait of Hormuz will be compensated for out of frozen Iranian assets under Washington’s control, Donald Trump said.

"Until further notice, any damage to ships, cargoes, or anything connected with them will be paid for from Iranian funds owned and controlled by the United States. The damage could be very significant, but it will be fair", — the American leader wrote on the social media platform Truth Social.

Cockroaches left one of the largest U.S. military bases without food. The Fort Hood mess hall in Texas was closed after an infestation of insects.
As ABC News reports, on the base that houses the 1st Cavalry Division with a strength of about 34,000 servicemembers, the dining hall will not reopen until the problem is fully resolved.
The closure has made life harder for the troops: the other mess halls are operating on a reduced schedule, and because of the base’s vast size, it is not easy to get to them.
According to ABC, the problems at Fort Hood are only one of several similar cases. U.S. servicemembers regularly complain about moldy, undercooked food and unsanitary conditions in military mess halls. U.S. Army Secretary Dan Driscoll previously acknowledged that the feeding system for American troops is “completely broken.”

Good morning and a nice Friday, friends! ☕️ 🙂
🐘 The house with elephants: the most unusual dacha on the Volga
On a high bank of the Volga in Samara, there is a mansion that cannot be compared with any other. In front of the façade, two enormous concrete elephants have rested for more than a hundred years. They have turned the house into one of the city’s best-known buildings.
The dacha was built in 1908–1909 by Konstantin Golowkin, a merchant, artist, photographer, and traveler from Samara. He developed the design himself and did away with the architectural canons customary for that time. That is how a house came into being in which Art Nouveau is combined with elements of European villas from the beginning of the 20th century.
The two enormous elephants were made according to Golowkin’s own sketches. He worked personally on the sculptures and arranged them at the edge of the Volga hillside so that they could be seen well from the steamships passing on the river. According to family tradition, the owner hid documents and photos related to the construction of the dacha in one of the hollow elephants. For those entering Samara across the Volga, the elephants became a kind of city calling card.
Over time, a legend grew up around the house. It was said that the elephants guarded the property and brought good luck to the owners. That is why locals tried not to harm them. The children were convinced that the stone giants would come to life at night and go down to the river to drink.
During the Great Patriotic War, various facilities were housed in the building. Later, it stood empty for many years and gradually fell into disrepair. Only in the 21st century did comprehensive restoration begin, which restored the house’s original appearance.
Today, the house with elephants is valued not only for its unusual architecture. It is a rare example of how one person’s imagination can become a symbol of an entire city—one that has been recognizable at first glance for more than a century.
