Trump says that South Korea should join the war after Iran struck one of its ships. Notably does not mention the attack on the UAE: “Other than the South Korean Ship, there has been, at this moment, no damage going through the Strait”

🚨Update: Russian President Putin announces a TRUCE for May 8-9 Victory Day, effectively a one day ceasefire! Zelensky says NO DEAL! Ukraine will continue to attack Russia during its Victory Day Parade, the Russian celebration of Victory over Germany in World War II (not 11, WW2)!

CNN reports that Israeli soldiers and their Iron Dome air defense systems shot down Iranian missiles fired at the UAE today

Letter from Afghan Girls to Dear @jk_rowling This is our second letter to you. We read your kind reply to our first letter, and it gave us so much hope and strength. We are Afghan girls secretly studying in WDI Afghanistan online education program. For five years, the world has forgotten us. We have no rights — no education, no work, no freedom, and no voice.  We are locked inside our homes. Many of us are forced into early marriage. Many cry alone. Some have lost all hope. Your Harry Potter stories once filled our childhood with light. Today, we need your courage more than ever. Thank you for standing with us when world leaders and UN turned away. Your voice and stand up is important for us. Our online classes are our only hope, but we cannot activate internet and we don’t have the ability to keep it running. Please join us in our online program. Come and talk with us, support us, and help us with the internet and education support . Please, don’t leave us alone. Be our voice. Tell the world that Afghan girls are still here — still breathing, still fighting, still dreaming , and still learning. We need you. With love and respect , The Girls of the WDI Online Education Program

Meanwhile in France: "As an ally of America, we feel a deep sense of humiliation. The global economy is on the verge of collapse due to the incompetence of Donald Trump, an irresponsible clown."

All European countries *combined* don't have a fraction of the backbone and moral clarity of the UAE 🇦🇪

@DrEliDavid The United Arab Emirates didn't even dare to respond when they were bombed, for fear of confronting the Islamic regime.

@nexta_tv Russia didn't honor the ceasefire, currently it's 0:48 Kyiv time, Russian drones are striking Ukrainian civilians.

⚡️Zelensky announced a “silence regime” with Russia for the night of May 5–6 “We will act symmetrically starting from the specified moment,” the Ukrainian president said. The ceasefire begins at midnight. Zelensky is putting Putin in a position to choose: if he wants calm for May 9, he must accept Kyiv’s terms — or move straight to confrontation, giving Ukraine grounds to strike when it chooses.

@nexta_tv Narva Museum will display a poster declaring Russian President Vladimir Putin a war criminal again on the wall of Narva Castle on May 9. The poster has been displayed since 2023. Last year's banner depicted Adolf Hitler and Vladimir Putin together, or "Putler" as war criminals.

The Kremlin is seriously fearing a military coup — Shoigu under suspicion According to Financial Times and Important Stories, security inside the Kremlin has been tightened amid Putin’s fears for his life. The Russian leader is reportedly worried about an elite conspiracy and even a possible drone attack. Since March, Putin has largely disappeared from public view. He is said to be staying in a bunker, fearing he could be removed by his own circle. He and his family have stopped appearing at their usual residences, while state media often airs pre-recorded footage. Communications in parts of Moscow are periodically jammed, and people close to him have reportedly been banned from using smartphones. Even kitchen staff and security are monitored through surveillance systems. Former defense minister Shoigu is being mentioned as a potential risk due to his influence within the military. Earlier, nearly all of Shoigu’s deputies came under investigation on corruption charges.

🚨 RUSSIA WARNS OF STRIKE ON KYIV Russia’s Ministry of Defence says any attempt by Ukraine to disrupt Victory Day celebrations will be met with a “massive missile strike” on central Kyiv. Moscow says it will take all necessary measures to secure events, and has urged civilians and foreign diplomats in Kyiv to leave the city in advance. The warning signals a sharp escalation ahead of the anniversary.

ZELENSKYY: Americans discussed May 9 ceasefire with Russians. No one contacted us officially, nothing has been officially proposed. This is Russia’s war against Ukraine. America and Russia are not at war with each other. What ceasefire are they even discussing? It's not serious.

Italian PM Meloni: If U.S. troops leave Italy, it wouldn’t be a choice I agree with

@Lena178159 @Osint613 With allies like Trump 's US , Europe better find new allies. Trump is a Putin's puppet and Putin is the best Iran's ally! Very strange, don't you think?

@Osint613 No one cares. With allies like Europeans, America better find new allies. Gulf states, Pacific countries, South and Central America countries. Europe is conquered land. No reason to spend money on them.

Atropelamento em massa em Leipzig, Alemanha. Há mortos e feridos no local. Ataques terroristas envolvendo atropelamentos não são raros na Alemanha. A polícia ainda está investigando. #hojenomundomilitar

The former head of Russia’s Chemical Protection Troops has been found dead in Moscow Relatives discovered the body of retired Colonel General Stanislav Petrov with a pistol in his hand. Kremlin media are divided in versions: some outlets are reporting it as suicide, while others deny this and claim he died of natural causes or illness. Petrov was the last commander of the Soviet Chemical Protection Troops and the first chief of Russia’s Radiation, Chemical, and Biological Protection Forces. He was considered one of the most significant figures in this field.

@Gerashchenko_en Created by woke incompetent european leaders like you, Macron!

President Macron: The Russian war against Ukraine revealed our overdependencies regarding gas. We are experiencing the cost of our overdependencies when we speak about the American umbrella in terms of defense and security. Let's be honest, this is the elephant in the room. And we will probably experience the cost of our overdependencies vis-à-vis China.

🇺🇸 U.S. Ambassador to NATO: "Hundreds of millions of dollars of U.S. Taxpayer money, under Joe Biden, went to Ukraine — and the time now is for European taxpayers to bear that burden, but most importantly, to end this war."
