@EmilSutovsky Hey, @Google, hope you're happy that your money are going directly to Putin's war budget.

And Murzin becomes the Champion! Unexpected, but not shocking, and fully deserved.
And again justifies the format - neither Murzin, nor his opponent in the final round Grigoryan, who had a great tournament to finish in top 5, would even make into RR or KO with 16 or 32 participants...
But we will get back to this discussion later.
Bravo, Volodar!

New details about the elimination of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar:
Yesterday morning, a soldier from Battalion 450 spotted a suspicious individual inside a building and opened fire on him. Later, in the day , the fighters observed three figures attempting to move stealthily between houses. Troops quickly identified these individuals as terrorists. Two of them were covered with blankets, likely not Sinwar, and were ahead, trying to clear the path for him. Troops engaged them with gunfire, injuring the terrorists, who began to scatter. Two of them took refuge in one building while Sinwar entered another.
Troops opened fire from a tank, providing light gunfire support as well. Sinwar was alone in his building and ascended to the second floor. The troops launched a shell and then rolled two grenades into the area. They also deployed drones to assist in the operation.
One drone captured a glimpse of a masked figure with a wounded arm sitting inside a room. Realizing a drone was approaching, the terrorist grabbed a piece of wood and threw it at the drone. The fighters responded by firing a shell at that location.
In the morning, troops entered the room and uncovered the body’s face, ultimately revealing it to be Sinwar.

@ZelenskyyUa When we'll see you, your relatives and all your friends with their relatives on the front lines, in the foxholes next to the people that you force to go there and die?

Today, the Minister of Defense delivered a report on my directive to increase funding for our domestic weapons production—drones, electronic warfare systems, and artillery. This also includes attracting investments from partners to expand our capabilities.
By the end of this month, we will have concrete new contracts in place to support Ukrainian defense production, which remains one of our top priorities. No matter what happens in the world, Ukraine will have the strength it needs—that is our most important goal.
Additionally, I had a conversation with Mark Rutte, NATO Secretary General, to coordinate our positions on strengthening Ukraine. I am grateful to Mark for his continued support.

@CityTonelero @UrielEpshtein Is this apartheid is in the room with you right now?

That’s a hell of an admission by Ta-Nehisi Coates… he’s saying that he may well have participated in killing and raping random innocents… This should be clearly condemned. You can sympathize with and support the Palestinian people without trying to justify a massacre.

Ta-Nehisi Coates suggests he's not above taking part in an October 7-style attack: "And I grow up under that oppression and that poverty and the wall comes down. Am I also strong enough or even constructed in such a way where I say this is too far, I don't know that I am."

October 366.
Last yr at this time - as we danced, some at Nova peace festival & others in synagogue at peak of Jewish high holiday season with the Torah that kept our people for thousands of yrs - we had no idea what would befall our country & people.
We WILL dance again. #LetThemGoNow

Hezbollah provides some details on a recent engagement with Israeli forces: This Friday afternoon, after artillery and air cover, the elite soldiers of the Israeli enemy army attempted to advance from two axes towards the towns of Maroun al-Ras and Yaron on the front edge. Upon the forces’ arrival at the previously prepared ambush points, and at the call of “Labbaik Ya Nasrallah,” the Islamic Resistance fighters detonated a number of explosive devices (some of which were planted yesterday) and clashed with the elite officers and soldiers with light and medium weapons and rockets, from close ranges that reached zero distance, which resulted in a number of deaths and injuries among the ranks of the infiltrating force. Those who were not injured carried a dead or wounded person and withdrew under artillery cover from the enemy’s positions inside the occupied territories.
