1/ 1st March marks the 26th anniversary of Russia's worst defeat in the Second Chechen War (1999-2009) – the Battle of Height 776, in which nearly an entire Russian paratrooper company was killed: 84 dead, with only 6 survivors. It's been commemorated today in Russia. ⬇️ Image
2/ The battle took place in early 2000, after the fall of Grozny to Russian federal forces fighting Chechen separatists. Around 1,500 to 2,000 Chechen fighters were retreating through the Argun Gorge, led by commanders including Shamil Basayev and Ibn al-Khattab.
3/ A single company of the Russian 6th Airborne Company, 104th Guards Parachute Regiment (76th Guards Air Assault Division), commanded by Major Sergei Molodov, was tasked with blocking the escape route near Ulus-Kert at a hilltop designated Height 776. Image

This article contains an important clue as to coded language in the Epstein files: women were compared to marine creatures:

"They're like shrimp...You throw away the head and keep the body" Image
It sounds like "aquarium" might refer to some sort of prison, or a harem at least.

"The King of Saudi Arabia has a few white sharks in his Jeddah palace."

1/ Russian commentators are sounding the alarm over America's use of a new kamikaze drone against Iran, the Low-cost Unmanned Combat Attack System (LUCAS). They note that it appears to have an integrated Starlink terminal and warn that it's a serious threat to Russia. ⬇️ Image
2/ The use of LUCAS drones against Iran was announced yesterday by CENTCOM. This is the first time that the drone has been deployed in combat. It is reportedly reverse-engineered from the Iranian Shahed-136, which Russia has also adapted as the Geran-2 to use against Ukraine.
3/ 'Obsessed with war' writes:

"The Americans are showing a photo of their Geran-like LUCAS drones launching at targets in Iran."

I am hoping @ChrisGPackham will understand this as a naturalist, and he has some understanding of ecology and biodiversity, because my important points about this assessment are being ignored.

My central point is these redacted parts are of little use to us.
1/🧵
I completely agree with @GreenRupertRead that these parts should never have been redacted. However, the idea that the full unredacted report, would help us better understand these threats, is profoundly mistaken, and the ITN report is misleading.
2/
I have been making the same warnings for decades, and they were actually based on the same science and references, as this assessment used.

My point, is we don't know enough about the way our human systems rely on natural systems, to confidently make such projections.

Oleksiy Brekht was the man who rebuilt destroyed transformers, connected Ukraine to the European power grid, and resisted attempts by Energy Minister Halushchenko to take control of Ukrenergo.

He was posthumously awarded Hero of Ukraine, Suspilne reports. 1/ Image
On January 21, 2026, Brekht was killed at a substation in Kyiv region while restoring equipment damaged by a Russian strike. The cause was electrocution. He died on site, doing field work, not managing from an office. 2/
Brekht started in 1999 at the Kyiv Pumped Storage Power Plant. In 2001, he joined Ukrenergo as a dispatcher.

Over 25 years, he rose through the ranks, focusing on system-level grid stability and high-voltage infrastructure. 3/

If you haven’t seen this angle, these are the gates leading to the interior compound of the U.S. Consulate in Karachi. If they get past that point they’ll scatter, and it’ll be overrun.

That flagpole is inside of the compound. Don’t.
Satellite and an image showing the building they’re inside of (with these gates visible inside if I understand the layout correctly).

Red is the flagpole, blue are fences. Image

Yellow is video POV, if I’m not mistaken. Red remains flagpole. Image

"West f*cking Virginia". Ahem. Canadian RW frens, I don't think your word choices are helping you in the American Heartland. The Alabama having a higher per capita GDP discussion is amusing, but is based on some insulting stereotypes.
1/
First, Huntsville "Rocket City" in the APPALACHIAN region of ALABAMA is more technologically sophisticated than any city in Canada. Look it up, original (and future) home of the US space program, huge numbers of PhDs & engineers.
2/
Canadians don't know this because they really don't know much about Alabama, or the South, or Appalachia. Canadians get filtered information from the liberal US coastal media, that goes through the liberal Canadian media, and they get a grossly distorted image

For the first time in months, we had clear satellite images of Ukraine 🇺🇦 without snow or clouds

The city of Chuhuiv in Kharkiv oblast received its first ring fortifications since the war started.

Ditches are being dug north and east of the city. Image
In Izium, also in Kharkiv oblast, the city's ring defenses are being reinforced, especially north and south of the city. Image
