Genova, i have no words what just happened. I saw people dancing from all ages. Everyone smiling and dancing to the beat. Honestly, the whole thing is making me a bit emotional. These are very powerful moments. I’m beyond honored to have been able to play for you today ❤️

Israeli intelligence agents have been visiting Somaliland for months and quietly planning for a potential operation at the mouth of the Red Sea that would allow it to target one of Tehran’s last-remaining proxies. @business

🚨✍🏻تحلیل نظامی منطقه
ایالات متحده همراه با اسرائیل در حال برنامه‌ریزی برای یک کارزار نظامی طولانی‌مدت علیه ایران هستند؛ با این فرض اولیه که رژیم ایران در پاسخ، اسرائیل و پایگاه‌های آمریکا در خاورمیانه را هدف قرار خواهد داد.
در حال حاضر دست‌کم ۱۹ پایگاه اصلی و مرکز راهبردی آمریکا در منطقه وجود دارد؛ از جمله پایگاه هوایی العدید در قطر، مقر فرماندهی سنتکام، پایگاه ناوگان پنجم آمریکا در بحرین، اردوگاه Camp Arifjan در کویت و همچنین پایگاه‌هایی در سوریه، اردن، عراق و کشورهای خلیج‌فارس.
نکته مهم این است که همه این پایگاه‌ها دارای سامانه پدافند هوایی ثابت نیستند. برخی تنها به سامانه‌های دفاعی کوتاه‌برد مجهز هستند که عملاً در برابر موشک‌های بالستیک کارایی ندارند.
ورود گسترده سامانه‌های THAAD و Patriot نشان می‌دهد که آمریکایی‌ها در حال آماده‌سازی برای پوشش دفاع موشکی تقریباً همه پایگاه‌ها هستند.
از سوی دیگر، پیش‌بینی می‌شود ناو هواپیمابر USS Abraham Lincoln در پشت سواحل عمان (نقطه سیاه) مستقر شود. برای حفاظت از آن، سامانه‌های پدافند هوایی حتی در امارات متحده عربی نیز مستقر شده‌اند (مسیر مشخص‌شده با رنگ قرمز).
جنگنده‌های F-15 مستقر در اردن و جنگنده‌های F-35 بریتانیا در قبرس برای حمله طراحی نشده‌اند، بلکه مأموریت اصلی آن‌ها دفاع از اسرائیل در برابر پهپادهای انتحاری ایران مانند Shahed-131/136 است.
نکته کلیدی اینجاست:
لجستیک، هماهنگی و یکپارچه‌سازی چنین شبکه‌ای از سامانه‌های پیشرفته زمان‌بر است و این فرایند همچنان ادامه دارد.
این تأخیر به معنای تغییر نظر ترامپ نیست؛ برخلاف آنچه بسیاری از مفسران، رسانه‌ها، روزنامه‌نگاران و شبه‌تحلیلگران القا می‌کنند.
پازل هنوز در حال تکمیل شدن است.

⚠️ Update: With #Iran's internet shutdown approaching day 20, many networks are becoming visible internationally.
HOWEVER:
📵 No return to usual: Web still heavily filtered on a whitelist basis.
🔧 Circumvention still needed: The opening of protocols can enable new workarounds.

The @AFP journalists' association says our freelancers in #Gaza are on the verge of starvation.
"We refuse to see them die."
AFP is making an appeal for an evacuation of them and their families.

BBC STATEMENT
"The claim the BBC took down a story after reviewing footage is completely wrong. We did not remove any story and we stand by our journalism.
"Our news stories and headlines about Sunday's aid distribution centre incident were updated throughout the day with the latest fatality figures as they came in from various sources. These were always clearly attributed, from the first figure of 15 from medics, through the 31 killed from the Hamas-run health ministry to the final Red Cross statement of ‘at least 21’ at their field hospital. This is totally normal practice on any fast-moving news story.
"Completely separately, a BBC Verify online report on Monday reported a viral video posted on social media was not linked to the aid distribution centre it claimed to show. This video did not run on BBC news channels and had not informed our reporting. Conflating these two stories is simply misleading.
"It is vital to bring people the truth about what is happening in Gaza. International journalists are not currently allowed into Gaza and we would welcome the support of the White House in our call for immediate access."

There’s zero evidence that NATO chief Mark Rutte has said he’ll kick US out of the alliance if Trump surrenders Ukraine to Russia.
The quote leads to pro-Kremlin sites and channels on Telegram.
Rutte actually said after 5 Nov election he is looking forward to working with Trump.
