Appears #Germany is now coming to the obvious realisation that #nordstream2 is now an option they must consider.

Assuming #Russia is prepared to pump any gas along it. 50% capacity is already allocated elsewhere.

Appears #China has closed the airspace over the #Taiwan Strait clearly due to the anticipation of the arrival of Pelosi in Taipei. The closure of airspace was initiated via a military exercise in #Fujian province involving live-fire.

So #Pelosi’s office has put out a press release of her Asia trip and itinerary. She is visiting, #Singapore, #Japan, Malaysia and South Korea.

There is no mention of visiting #Taiwan.

So it appears the #UN intends investigating the shelling which occurred at #Elenovka, which resulted in #Ukraine POWs being killed and wounded by #HIMARs. Apparently they are in receipt of evidence following the attack.

"Our air defense works, but even from downed missiles, mines can fall to the ground and remain active. I ask all residents NOT to let their children out of the house and to exercise maximum vigilance when moving around the city until the sappers of Ministry of Emergency ..."

In addition, heavy equipment is being stockpiled in the #Belgorod region, waiting for its time, which will most likely come in the fall. Although full-scale offensive operations by the #Russian Armed Forces are still out of the question until the end of the battle for #Donbass

❗️Strike indicated from the northwestern 🇺🇦 direction❗️

Given the limited number of places in the #DPR #LPRcorrectional facilities and the total number of #POWs of war of more than 10 thousand people, the colony is used at full capacity. All possible facilities are being filled

Analysis from the scene confirms that the eastern part of the building was hit the hardest, with a powerful fire and explosion that blew out the windows. However, there was only one point of impact: a break in the roof near the ridge.

The announcement by #Russian Defence Ministry on Tuesday on Vostok-22 strategic command post exercises during August 30-September 5 gives a big message to the West in political and military terms.

Thread
1/
The announcement said, “In addition to the troops (forces) of the Eastern Military District, units of the Airborne Troops, Long Range Aviation and Military Transport Aviation, as well as military contingents from other states, will be involved in these manoeuvres.”

If there is going to be participation by #China, it will be highly significant in the present context of global politics, especially in the Far East.

Great thread addressing little known facts about Donbass urban agglomeration and henceforth slower advance of #Russian and #DPR troops ...

by @SlavyangradES (@zastavnyii acc on T)

Detractors of SMO often complain that the #Russian army advances too slowly. They say the battles are fought over endless villages, followed by an assault on some third-rate towns. "In five months of war the Russians have not taken a single regional center," they say.

2/ Image
Well, this only shows that our opponents either do not know or have begun to forget what #Ukraine as a geographical area is and what the #Donbass is like.

The highlights of #Russian Foreign Minister Sergey #Lavrov’s interview with Sputnik and RT:

🔹The #EU is forced to make amendments to sanctions against Russia as they have exceeded their potential;

1/
🔹#Russia is not happy about energy issues that #Europe is currently facing, but "will not worry about it too much";
🔹Western countries are trying to drag #UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres into their “games” around #Ukrainian grain;
2/
🔹Moscow has sent a signal to Guterres about the need to include a clause on #Russian grain in the Istanbul agreements;

🔹It can hardly be in #Europe’s interests to fully cut off ties with #Russia and switch to liquefied natural gas supplies from the #USA;
