Modern war is fought in the air. But the ground decides who holds the line.

Ukraine's 91st Support Brigade builds the infrastructure that makes every drone strike more effective and every Russian infantry assault more costly.
It is called a kill zone.

Here is how it works — and why it matters.
👇🧵Image
1/5

Russia's current front-line tactic: constant small infantry group infiltration — pairs, threes, probing for gaps in Ukrainian defensive lines.

The engineering response is a layered obstacle system designed not to stop the enemy immediately, but to slow him down long enough for drones to find him.
The system — explained by sapper platoon commander "Sava":

→ Two low-profile barriers (MPP)
→ Four rows of Egoza concertina wire
→ Two more MPP barriers
→ Repeated across the entire defensive line

"This kind of obstacle can stop even a tank. The wire wraps around the tracks and stops it. Infantry gets tangled in it. It is very difficult to pass through. It is a very effective barrier."

The wire runs even through water. At one position, the obstacle system feeds into a natural lake — with an anti-tank ditch on one side and concertina wire on the berm.Image
2/5

Beyond the wire: the kill zone itself.
After the obstacle belts comes an open stretch of terrain — deliberately cleared of vegetation, with wire set on low stakes just above ground level. It is called a "stumbler."

Enemy infantry rarely attempts to cross it. When they do — they rarely complete the crossing.

But the kill zone is not designed to stop the enemy by itself. It is designed to buy time.

"This is done to slow the enemy and give our drone operators time to detect and destroy him. Because if the enemy gets somewhere, accumulates there, you need powerful means to dislodge them — or send people in for clearance. Those are potential casualties. These obstacles help hold them back." — "Sava," sapper platoon commander.

The kill zone is the physical manifestation of Ukraine's combined arms logic: obstacles + drones + artillery + infantry, each element enabling the next. The obstacle doesn't need to destroy the enemy. It needs to hold him still long enough for something else to.Image

Iran has suffered severe strategic degradation across its nuclear, military, and leadership structures following joint U.S.-Israeli strikes beginning in June 2025 and intensifying with Operation Epic Fury in February 2026.
1)
Its nuclear enrichment program was obliterated, with facilities like Fordow and Natanz in ruins, entrances buried in cement, and a generation of senior nuclear scientists eliminated; as of March 2026, no efforts to rebuild enrichment capabilities have been detected.
2)
Iran's conventional military forces have been decimated: the U.S. claims over 90% of Iran's navy has been sunk, its air force is effectively gone, and approximately 80% of its air defense systems destroyed.

Always remember that the kynurenine pathway is crucial in autoimmune diseases.

So it's also crucial for alopecia aerata.

A highly active immune system triggers the enzyme indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), which drives the breakdown of tryptophan into kynurenine metabolites.

Normally, healthy hair follicles possess "immune privilege," meaning they are shielded from immune system attacks.

In conditions like alopecia areata, the dysregulated kynurenine-AhR (aryl hydrocarbon receptor) axis compromises this shield, allowing immune cells (like T-cells) to attack the follicle.

Now in case you have zero clue what the kynurenine pathway is, here's a qucik thread.Image
The kynurenine pathway is the main metabolic route for breaking down tryptophan, accounting for about 95% of its catabolism (the rest goes to serotonin/melatonin or minor indole pathways).

You might think that this sounds extremely boring, but what if i told you that this pathway is so important that ketamine’s rapid antidepressant effects in treatment-resistant depression are greatly linked to its influence on the kynurenine pathway (the references are presented at the end as always)?

It produces a series of intermediate metabolites collectively called kynurenines with diverse biological effects (some are neuroprotective/anti-inflammatory, while others are neurotoxic/pro-inflammatory), with the end goal being the de novo production of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+).Image
Now the kynurenine pathway begins with the conversion of tryptophan to kynurenine (KYN), the rate-limiting first step that commits most tryptophan to this metabolic route rather than serotonin or melatonin production.

This conversion is catalyzed by two main enzymes:

-Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1)
and
-Tryptophan 2,3-dioxygenase (TDO) (also known as TDO2)

These enzymes perform the same biochemical reaction, which is oxidizing the indole ring of tryptophan using molecular oxygen to produce N-formylkynurenine, which is quickly deformylated to kynurenine.

That being said, they differ significantly in traits such as location, regulation and expression.Image

Good morning all, here are your #BadNewsOfTheDay.

1. When's the #AMOC gonna #collapse?

Given that "it’s at the weakest it’s been in around 1,000 years", AND then there's this new cold blob, this will be a problem in Europe MUCH earlier than we think.
edition.cnn.com/2026/06/12/cli…
2/x

It's an outlier guess, but given how the last years have always pushed the Amoc collapse date closer to now, I think AMOC slowdown will cause *significant*, radical cooling in Europe starting in the 1st half of the 2030s.

The type of cooling to cause MASSIVE disruption.
3/x

2. "2026 is on Track to be the Hottest Year", which is the case *before* the Super Duper El Nino really hits - El Nino will encounter a radically heating climate, and then supercharge it, so that for 2027, all bets are off regarding climate chaos.

I am in Dublin Ireland connecting the dots of the Acadian Deportation to the Irish Deportations to North America which took place around 1850, 100 years after the British Empire deported us to Europe. This is what I learned. Image
Image
Image
Image
This is the map of the Acadian deportation to Europe which was done in 1755 by Edward Cornwallis who did the scalping proclamations against Mi’kmaw and Acadians. He made the deportation plans in the Freemason Lodge 54 in Digby NS before Canada or the US existed. Members included Wolfe, Lord Moncton, Lord Jeffrey Amherst, Winslow and others. Edward Cornwallis came to Canada after killing Scots. They did deportations from Acadia to Standing Rock where Jeffrey Amherst died. Amherst was a Freemason who brought the box with him. It was a battle of the Moderns vs the Ancient Masons, the Order of Christ (Vatican) vs. Protestant Templars. The wars were religious because you had to be Roman Catholic to do legal trade with Europe. It was why Henri Membertou got baptized. His goods and Acadian goods traded in Antwerp. There was a global commerce of salt cod and shipping (linked to the Charles Robin Jersey Fishing Company.) The British came and attacked Vatican trade people to force the use of British Currency in North America. The beneficiaries were the ones with money: Dutch and British elites and other Europeans who made Wall Street to invest in future trades. To keep prices cheap it bound the world to slavery to keep prices cheap. Wall Street sold slaves and was known as the stock market where people were auctioned off while being displayed in the stocks. The New England families who took over Acadia were the only people with money. Acadians and Indigenous and Non Protestants were denied money.
The “old stock” Canadians became the richest people in Canada to this day.Image

The scalping proclamation by Edward Cornwallis has never been recinded to this day. aptnnews.ca/national-news/…

#Books #GreatReads #Excerpts “Ultimate Journey by Robert Monroe”

🧵Chapter 2

The Long, Long Trail

Throughout history, labels have been developed for those
who won't leave well enough alone: infidels, mystics, sinners,
rebels, revolutionaries, misfits, neurotics, anarchists, adven¬
turers, traitors, explorers, visionaries, researchers—add to the
list what you will. Any deviation from the accepted norm
engenders risk. All of these individuals have been for the most
part aware of the risk. If they were not, ignorance was no
excuse. If there was a price to be paid in reaction or effect,
they must or should have known about it before they
took action. No sad tears for the wounded or the dead in
such cases. I know this well, and you may discover it for
yourself.

So it must be said: the Different Overview you are beginning to consider can be at most only a belief until you begin to
test it for validity within your own ongoing experience during
your life as an active Human Mind. As small beliefs convert to
Knowns, perhaps larger Different Overview beliefs will follow
the same path—until you are free.

From this point on, the delivery of a personal narrative
seems the most convenient and definitive method of explana¬
tion. What to me are Knowns can produce only beliefs in you
unless you have had or are having similar experiences that
demand verification. Let me therefore attempt to tell it "like it is" for me, allowing you to form your own beliefs which
experience may in time convert to Knowns.

In my personal run, thirty-plus years of out-of-body ac¬
tivity had brought me to a calm state of satisfaction. A cycle
has been completed, or so it seemed. My own Different Over¬
view was well in place and eminently rewarding. Or it should
have been.

I knew where I came from, how I got here and became a human, why I hung around, my final departure schedule, and
where I would go when I left. What else could have had any
importance? Anything else was mere detail.

And there was my INSPEC friend.

It was one thing to talk with such mind-consciousness in
sessions in a laboratory, as simply a voice speaking through
someone physical that you knew well. It was something quite
different to encounter one face to face. Either in fun or fact,
we had chosen the acronym INSPEC (for Intelligent Species)
to identify this energy form, which implied that we Human
Minds were something less.

But this INSPEC was not the same as those I had previously met. Over the years I had experienced many nonphysical meetings, communication and rapport with those who
were obviously very human, those who still possessed a physical body, and otherwise. This INSPEC, however, was different.

Our usual meeting place was just past the H Band Noise.
The H Band Noise is the peak of uncontrolled thought that
emanates from all living forms on Earth, particularly humans.
If you consider it as truly all, even in a current time frame, you
get a better idea of the magnitude of this disorganized,
cacophonous mass of messy energy. The amplitude of each segment of the band is determined by the emotion involved in the thought. Yet our civilization does not even recognize that the H Band exists.

My impression is that it contains not only current time
thought patterns, but all that ever existed. They are con¬
tinuous and simultaneous, and it may be that the older radia¬
tion is layered over so all one perceives is the current emis¬
sion.
To study it objectively, if one is so foolhardy, as to want
to do so, all one needs do is move to that state of disassociation just beyond the last vestiges of any direct Earth-related
Human Mind activity in the nonphysical There. It appears
much like a reflective layer, beyond which the effects diminish rapidly. Passing through it quickly is advisable, just as
one would try to work through a screaming, angry mob—for
that is what it sounds like, in a multitude of accents and
tongues.

Now back to my INSPEC friend. Here is an excerpt from
one of our earlier meetings when I had phased out of my body
and moved to a point just beyond the H Band.
I wonder if this being understands how strong his or her light
is. Could it be an E.T. (extraterrestrial) after all?

You will become accustomed to the light. You have the same
radiation to us . . . and we are not the extraterrestrials as
you mean it.

You read what I am thinking?

That is true. Just as you can with me.

I can?

You are doing it now in part, but only the surface part.

Yes, you are right. It is certainly not words and sounds . . .
no air to vibrate . . . but simply in the mind . . . yes.

What you call the core self does remember.

You know, I do remember ... I remember you . . . the
feel of you . . .

It is good that you do not express fear. We can do much when
that barrier is removed.

Oh,I have a few fears left . . .

But they do not rule your perception. For example, why are
you not filled with fear at this moment?

I don't know. But I'm not afraid. That's true. Right at this
moment I am here, talking with you in a rational way . . .
with you, someone who is very familiar to me ... a brightly
glowing figure that some people would interpret as a god, an angel, or at the very least some extraterrestrial. Yet we are
here talking just like two ordinary people . . . except that we are not using words!

The difference is the lack of fear.

There is so much potential . . . Who are you actually? Or
maybe I should say. What are you? Now I do have the courage to ask.

It is beyond your experience to understand at this time. But
you will understand, and very soon.

Can we meet again?

All you need do is ask for our help.

You mean meditating? Saying prayers?

The words and rituals are meaningless. It is the thought . . .the emotion . . . that is the signal. If the proper signal is given, we are able to help.

Let me be sure of this. You are not the god ... a god . . . but perhaps someone from another planet?

No, not from another planet.

Are you the one, or one of those who may have created us
. . . the Earth?

No. We are sorry to disappoint you. But we can give you what
we have in regard to the creative process. Do you desire it?

Why, yes. Yes!

This is what we have . . .

I was filled, almost overcome, with a surge of enormous energy, an immensely powerful vibration of very high frequency.
This I knew as a ROTE, short for Related Organized Thought
Energy, a sort of ball of condensed thought and ideas.

It is so much! I can't understand it all at once . . .

You will, when you can examine it at leisure.

Thank you.

There was a pause before the INSPEC communicated again.

You are uncertain as to your progress, your growth.

I am uncertain, that's true. I think I know my goal, my purpose. The uncertainty is what lies in between.

What do you perceive as your goal?

Well ... I guess . . . service to humankind.

That is indeed a noble goal. It is the ever-present desire of
your human self to attain perfection. When you are no longer
human, desire focuses in another direction. But there are
other goals.

A desire more important? No, I don't mean that ... a desire
different from the human experience?

You are doing very well.

I often wonder about that.

You will find an answer . . . Now I perceive you need to
return to your physical body.

1/ India Inc has crossed a profitability threshold that places it alongside the most efficient corporate sectors in the world.

Corporate pre-tax profits now run at 16% of GDP.

@TVMohandasPai and I discuss how India Inc and the Indian State can build the next trillion together. 🧵
2/ The data tells the story.

Gross corporate tax FY26: ₹13.82 lakh crore ($163B). Implied pre-tax profits: ~₹55.3 lakh crore ($651B). Net corporate tax growth: 11.4% YoY, more than 2x total direct tax growth.

The margin story demonstrates structural expansion.
3/ Listed company data confirms it.

@moneycontrolcom Q4FY26 across 4,433 firms: Revenue +10.81% YoY Net profit +23.65% YoY

Even after stripping Vodafone Idea's ₹57,491 cr one-time AGR gain, adjusted growth lands in the mid-teens.

Nifty 50's share of total adjusted net profit fell to 47.1%, the lowest in 21 quarters.

The new layer of compounding is also emerging outside the index heavyweights.
