Iran is likely tallying the costs of the Israeli air strikes in retaliation for teran's massive October the first missile barrage on Israel among the targets that Israel appears to have gone after are Iran's prized russian-made s300 air defense systems according to us and Israeli officials putting the Iranian s-300s out of action leaves the door open to followup strikes by is is including larger scale direct attacks this serves as both a contingent opportunity for the Israel Defense Forces and a deterrent against a response from Iran the Israeli Ministry said it had targeted Iranian missile manufacturing sites
and aerial defense systems in what appeared to be a highly calculated response that avoided critical energy infrastructure such as oil fields and nuclear facilities the Iranian Army said that two soldiers were killed in the strikes without clarifying where the deaths happened the Iranian soldiers died confronting the projectiles of the criminal Zionist entity a reference to Israel the Army said in a statement which was published on state media Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday that Israel's strikes on Iran had severely damaged its defense capabilities without providing further details on what was targeted Iran's ability
to supply ballistic missiles to Russia has been hit by Saturday's Israeli strikes on weapons facilities across the Islamic Republic according to the telegraph while the attack involving more than 100 aircraft targeted Iran's ability to strike Israel it could also have serious repercussions for Vladimir Putin's war in Ukraine satellite images showed some sites hit by Israel housed planetary mixers which are used to make solid fuel for ballistic missiles as a result if Iran needs its own supply of missiles for fresh attacks on Israel experts say it could now struggle to provide more projectiles to Russia due
to a lack of fuel the destruction of Iranian solid fuel planetary mixers could influence any Iranian decision to export solid fueled short range ballistic missiles to Russia if these missiles are regarded as being difficult to replace said sidath KAAL senior research fellow at rousi the defense Think Tank there are unconfirmed reports from Israel that some kind of followup operation might already have been prepared with claims that government targets and infrastructure could be next although Iranian nuclear facilities will apparently be spared for now considering how Saturday's air strikes included significant softening up of Iranian air defenses
it is almost inevitable that Israel has several follow-up options already planned should Iran respond with another barrage according to the war zone Russia's Republic of chcha has been targeted by drones for the first time since the start of Russia's full-fledged invasion of Ukraine over 2 years ago head of ccha ramsen kadirov reported that a drone attack struck the Russian Special Forces University named after Vladimir Putin in the town of goods in the Republic at 6:30 in the morning as a result of an unmanned attack on Tuesday the roof of an empty building on the territory

involved and whether North Korean units could really change the course of the war more detailed information was needed however according to yac the North Korean military is completely changing the political scenario and meaning of the War caused by Russian aggression de facto we can say that North Korea is participating in this conflict doour there was no official declaration of war from Pyongyang but the facto they joined the military aggression against our country a conflict that has been going on for a decade yac noted he also stressed that it is not enough to Simply stop the
fighting it is necessary to prevent further aggression otherwise the Baltic and Balkan countries will be at risk if Ukraine doesn't stop the invasion they will be next answering a question about the possibility of asking NATO to send troops Yak emphasized that the ukrainians are fighting themselves of course with the help of our partners but on their own and are doing so quite effectively at the same time he noted Ukraine needs a sufficient amount of weapons and financial support because only a strong and militarily secure Ukraine will be ready for serious negotiations with Russia thousands of
North Korean troops are preparing to back Russian ruler Vladimir Putin in his war against Ukraine the new soldiers are reportedly from North Korea's Special Operations forces the country's most capable military unit and are likely to be deployed to Russia's K region to try to retake the territory however Western analysts can only speculate on how effective these forces are against the backdrop of Ukraine's capable Army writes Philips pacon O'Brien professor of strategic studies at the University of St Andrews in Scotland in an article for the Atlantic Putin saw an opportunity to strengthen his hand in the
war and took it regardless of the western backlash he appears to be betting that the United States will not intervene directly defense secretary Lloyd Austin acknowledged that North Korea had joined Russia in the conflict calling it a very serious problem since the start of the fullscale invasion the United States has been hesitant to provide Ukraine with Advanced weapons such as himas Abrams Tanks ATA CMS missiles F-16 Fighters and jassam longrange missiles while these weapons were eventually provided it was a waste of time that limited Ukraine's options moreover the United States has never given a clear
answer to the question of whether it would allow Western weapons to be used to strike Crimea the kers bridge and other Russian targets outside of Ukraine
