L'operazione segreta #GLADIO venne scoperta nel 1990: #CIA, #MI6 e #NATO avevano addestrato e diretto un esercito clandestino di unità paramilitari fasciste in tutta Europa, dispiegando le proprie risorse per indebolire gli oppositori politici.

Oggi nuovi #file britannici recentemente declassificati, gettano una luce inquietante sulle origini e sul funzionamento interno dell'operazione #Gladio, che anche attraverso la NATO, dispiegava milizie terroristiche fasciste in tutta Italia.

I tempted fate by saying I was hoping for sleep. Soon enough alarms were sounding in the south of #Ukraine.
Suspected cruise missiles launched from #Russia's Black Sea Fleet, and #Odesa has reported explosions. Hopefully it's just air defence.

Loads of nice photos and videos in Saturday's thread and how there seems to have been a #Russia-#Africa plot to deny missile strikes, but Russia's MoD messed up!

Who doesn't like a bit of alliteration? And here are some sweet Sunday sounds to start your day.
Less than 20km north of #Henichesk in #Kherson region there was a big explosion, then many, many more in the village of #Rykove as #Russia's weapon/ammo store there went up in smoke!

More and more evidence coming out that an explosive force burst the dam. These signals would not have been detectable if the dam was destroyed by water and natural occurrences. @cirnosad @GeromanAT #NovaKakhovkaDam #crimea #counteroffensive #UkraineRussiaWar
Infrasound SIGINT from Romania also came out earlier today showing an anomalous reading consistent with an explosion at around the same time. #UkraineRussiaWar #Khakovkadam #crimea
This is on top of reports where locals were reporting a powerful explosion during the night and strange sounds following it. So far we have 3 independent confirmations through different signals that an explosion occurred at the dam. #RussiaUkraineWar

ISW is not ready to assess who or what is responsible for destroying the #KakhovkaDam in #Kherson but notes that we forecast in October 2022 that the Russians would do so.
That forecast was inaccurate at the time, but the reasoning supporting the forecast was & remains valid. 🧵

2/ ISW assessed on October 19, 2022, that Russian forces would blow the #KakhovkaDam to cover their withdrawal from #Kherson Oblast and to prevent Ukrainian forces from pursuing Russian forces deeper into left (east) bank Kherson, likely blaming #Ukraine. isw.pub/RusCampaignOct…

🧵 (Thread) 1/ Oggi nell'#Ucraina meridionale una diga di epoca sovietica sul fiume Dnipro, a 30 km da #Kherson, è stata fatta esplodere, provocando il rilascio di acque alluvionali in tutta la zona. Ecco cosa sappiamo finora 👇
2/ La diga in questione è quella di #Kakhovka, costruita nel 1956 come parte della centrale idroelettrica di Kakhovka, alta 30 metri e lunga 3,2 km.
3/ Le implicazioni di questa falla vanno oltre la zona del conflitto. Il bacino idrico fornisce acqua alla penisola di #Crimea, che la #Russia sostiene di aver annesso nel 2014, e alla centrale nucleare di #Zaporizhzhia, sotto il controllo russo.

On operational and other consequences:
- There will be no significant impact on UKR counter-offensive. #Ukraine may briefly pause to reassess the situation.
- The water level will increase, washing a lot of small settlements. #Kherson city is mostly on a higher land, though.

#BREAKING: The Nova Kakhovka Dam has been destroyed. The consequences of this are going to be drastic and grave. "It would be impossible to supply water to Crimea via the North Crimea Canal" - Head of Nova Kakhovka district. #ukraine #russia #novakakhovka #dam #crimea
A map below shows potential flooding consequences down stream of the dam. 80 towns, villages and cities are in danger of being under water in the coming hours. It is unclear who struck the dam at this time. This also drastically reduces water supply to Crimea. #russia #UkraineWar

Also hearing now that cruise-missile laden ships are in the launch zone in the Black Sea. This is not uncommon, but #Russia's current tactic of a mixed missile attack increases the likelihood of ships being involved.
