An Iranian-backed militia successfully used a (likely fiber optic) FPV drone to carry out a reconnaissance mission through the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad yesterday. Seen here, the drone flies unchallenged through the embassy complex for nearly two minutes.

1/ Leaked orders from the Russian Ministry of Defence show that Telegram is being banned immediately for operational use by Russian forces in Ukraine, with soldiers reportedly facing being sent to their deaths in assaults if they are found not to be complying. ⬇️

90% of the counteroffensive maps you're seeing are mappers correcting overmarking of Russian advances. The captured villages were never truly controlled by Russia. It was small forward units in contested areas, these are largely just fluctuations in the contested zones.

1/ Leaked casualty figures from an elite Russian special forces brigade indicate that it has suffered huge losses in Ukraine, equivalent to more than half of its entire roster of personnel. Scores of men are listed as being 'unaccounted for', in other words having deserted. ⬇️

🚨United States Postal Service sends alarming letter out to all employees and contractors. Letter signals that an impending crisis of civil unrest or an epidemic could be imminent! What do they know you don't? Just days into 2026, USPS is issuing memos reminding workers to carry "essential service" letters and IDs to bypass travel restrictions during emergencies like epidemics, hurricanes, or CIVIL UNREST. Government prepping while we're in the dark? The last time Truckers saw these letters in our industry was during the COVID crisis! Pay Attention America #USPSAlert #CivilUnrest #ImpendingCrisis #TruckersKnow

I’m hoping to highlight fundraisers for Ukrainian units in Kherson and Zaporizhzhia which don’t get a lot of visibility, yet are incredibly important. Idea is to focus on fundraisers with goals in the low thousands USD. Please let me know if you are aware of any you want to help.

Another combat donkey joins the Russian army, now upgraded with helmet and body armor.

Excited to share our film on Kherson, where city life goes on deep inside the Russian drone kill zone, where the hunting of civilians continues to be a daily normalcy, and where some of the strongest, toughest, and proudest of all Ukrainians can be found. youtube.com/watch?v=lmyslT…

Over the last 18 months CIR has been verifying & archiving media of 🇷🇺 drone attacks targeting likely civilians & civilian infrastructure in Kherson. We have launched an interactive map, the Red Zone, where users can analyse verified incidents themselves info-res.org/eyes-on-russia…

I guarantee you that you cannot see Ukraines best fortifications on satellite. If you know it is there, unless it is an obstacle like a vehicle ditch it isn't defending much. The best fortifications are dug underground and inside treelines. Which is why Constantine has been fundraising small excavators in the 2-4 ton class because they can dig without disturbing trees.

Russia hit Odesa region with modified Shahed drones equipped with factory-installed thermal cameras for remote targeting, Militarnyi reported, noting Moscow previously bolted cameras externally but now integrates them inside for better aerodynamics.

Ukraine's SBU intelligence service struck the Russian tanker "QENDIL", part of the so called 'shadow fleet', whilst it was sailing in the Mediterranean, according to Ukrainian outlet RBC. The attack took place more than 2,000km from Ukraine.

In a massively successful raid, Ukrainian undersea drones snuck into Russia's Novorossiysk harbor and blew up a Kilo-class submarine.

1/ The new US National Security Strategy blames 'undemocratic' European governments for failing to make peace with Russia, takes a pro-Russian position on NATO, reflects white nationalist views on European demographics, and pledges overt support for far-right parties. ⬇️
