– Kyrylo Budanov 🇺🇦:
“Time is not on Moscow’s side. Every month this war continues, Russia pays a higher military, economic, and demographic price. The pressure on the Russian state is cumulative, and these losses cannot be reversed simply by prolonging the war.
Russia’s leadership believes time works in its favor, but the reality on the battlefield and inside the country increasingly proves the opposite.”
Russia is losing……!

Lindsey Graham’s final phone call is being revealed, as he dialed one senator’s staffer in desperate need of help.
Sen. Tommy Tuberville is sharing new details about Sen. Lindsey Graham’s final moments, revealing Graham called his scheduler after returning from an overseas trip and said, “Listen, I’m having chest pains. I need to do something.”
When asked, “Did you call 911?” Graham replied, “No, that’s the reason I called you.” Tuberville said the scheduler immediately called 911, and “by the time she got there, 911 had knocked the door down, and they were working on him.”
Tuberville said, “Lindsey basically worked himself to death,” noting Graham rarely took time off and was always traveling to “work out something for our country.”
Axios also reported Graham delayed seeking medical attention before his scheduled appearance on Meet the Press, saying, “I can’t die now. I still need to do the Russia sanctions, get Iran sorted out and do Israeli-Saudi normalization.”

Severe abdominal pain.
Shortness of breath, fainting, or stroke-like symptoms. [5, 6, 8]

Aortic dissection due to arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease – Google Search google.com/search?q=aortic+d…
An aortic dissection is a life-threatening tear in the inner wall of the aorta, the body’s largest artery. When it occurs due to arteriosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), it is because chronic plaque buildup (atherosclerosis) has hardened, narrowed, and weakened the aortic wall, making it prone to tearing under high blood pressure. [1, 2]
What Happens in the AortaThe Tear: ASCVD damages the inner layer of the aorta. High blood pressure or sudden stress forces blood through this tear, splitting the artery’s walls.
The Consequences: This split blocks critical blood flow, which can cause strokes, organ damage, or fatal internal bleeding. [1, 3, 4]Key Risk Factors
Atherosclerosis: Plaque buildup stiffens the aorta, reducing its elasticity.
Hypertension: Chronic, uncontrolled high blood pressure is the leading trigger for the arterial tear.
Age and Sex: It is most common in men aged 50-70.
Lifestyle: Smoking and high cholesterol are major contributing factors. [1, 4, 5, 6, 7]Symptoms: It acts as an extreme cardiovascular emergency. Common symptoms include:
Sudden, severe, and sharp pain in the chest or upper back (frequently described as a “tearing” or “ripping” sensation).
Severe abdominal pain.
Shortness of breath, fainting, or stroke-like symptoms. [5, 6, 8]For detailed information on diagnosis and emergency protocols, visit the American Heart Association or the Cleveland Clinic. [1, 2]

Summary
Direct military confrontation between the US, Israel, and Iran has entered a sustained phase, with strikes on nuclear and civilian sites, naval blockades, and retaliatory attacks reshaping Middle East security. The conflict is accelerating arms production in Europe, deepening China-Russia strategic ties, and destabilizing global oil markets, while peripheral states like Oman and Lebanon face spillover violence.
Key Stories
US and Israel launch sustained strikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites — Reports confirm three consecutive nights of US-Israel airstrikes targeting Iranian nuclear facilities, missile launchers, and civilian infrastructure, with Iran retaliating against Middle Eastern bases. The 103-day war has killed thousands and triggered a naval blockade in the Strait of Hormuz.
Europe forms anti-ballistic coalition to bolster Ukraine’s missile defense — France and Italy launched Project Freya, a new initiative to accelerate production of Aster and Patriot interceptors for Ukraine, following Zelensky’s appeal. The US has pledged additional Patriot batteries, signaling a shift from ad-hoc aid to industrial-scale arms manufacturing.
China expands influence in post-Putin Russia amid espionage concerns — Beijing is cultivating mid-level Russian officials and elites to shape the country’s post-Putin leadership, while Chinese espionage attempts rise. Moscow is avoiding confrontation to preserve the strategic partnership, despite growing unease.
Lebanon and Gulf states face escalating spillover violence — Israeli drone strikes hit southern Lebanon, while Bahrain and other Gulf states report fresh US-Iran clashes. Oman is mediating to restore navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, as regional powers brace for wider conflict.
Oil markets volatile as Middle East war disrupts global supply chains — The US-Iran naval blockade and attacks on Gulf shipping lanes have sent oil prices surging, with analysts warning of prolonged market instability. Asymmetric warfare tactics by Ukraine and Iran suggest a protracted conflict with economic ripple effects.

Poland won’t lift its ban on Ukrainian farm imports, even with the new EU-Ukraine trade deal on the horizon.
Deputy Agriculture Minister Adam Nowak announced the stance in Brussels, claiming lifting the embargo unilaterally would deal a blow to the Polish food market and bring losses for consumers, Polskie Radio reported. The agreement takes effect in November and, in theory, should erase all unilateral restrictions—yet Poland, Slovakia, and Hungary keep their own bans.
