It could take the USS Boxer about a month to reach the Middle East. It left San Diego Bay on Wednesday, March 18th. Per @Liz_Friden The USS Boxer amphibious ready group and attached 11th Marine expeditionary unit is deploying to the Middle East from California, a U.S. official confirms to Fox News. The task force of about 4,500 sailors and Marines is currently sailing across the Pacific Ocean to the Middle East, the official said.  Once in the Middle East, it will overlap with the USS Tripoli Amphibious Ready Group and 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit for some time, and then will replace the 31st MEU altogether, the official said. This will happen in coming weeks. The Tripoli ARG/31st MEW is still en route to the Middle East from Japan and is expected to arrive as early as next week.  The USS Boxer, an amphibious assault ship left its home port of San Diego earlier this week. The amphibious ready group also includes the USS Comstock dock landing ship and USS Portland transport dock.

Sinaloa cartel sicarios just filmed themselves on the Ukrainian front, shouting greetings home while wearing full AFU kit. Mexican officials keep insisting “it’s only Colombians.” Watch the video. These aren’t idealistic volunteers but actual cartel foot soldiers using someone else’s war and Western funding as a free advanced infantry and drone academy. While Kyiv burns through money and bodies, Sinaloa gets real combat experience in FPV drones, fiber optic guidance, and modern small unit tactics for the price of a few mercenary contracts. Colombians die for wages. Mexican criminal networks treat the front as paid training. Mexican social media is already panicking about the “veterans” coming back. Intercepted FPV shipments and fiber-optic spools in Sinaloa itself show the skills transfer is already happening. When these guys start dropping explosives on government vehicles or police helicopters with the same methods used near Kharkiv, Mexico City won’t be able to shrug it off. This is what “support Ukraine” actually funds right now: a pipeline that upgrades Latin American cartels with peer-conflict combat experience. The blowback lands in Mexican cities and on the U.S. southern border. Is the inevitable blowback worth it? Wake up! #Cartels #Mexico #Ukraine #Sinaloa #Colombia

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is seeking Saudi approval, through U.S. mediation, for Israel to join the campaign against Yemen's Houthis, despite opposition from Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman over fears of public backlash. Netanyahu reportedly hopes the move will strengthen ties with Riyadh and advance future normalization | @lizarozovsky 🔗haaretz.com/middle-east-news…

Still MONITORING Ethiopia/Eritrea war.
Ethiopia has started a large military build-up around Bododa near the borders with Eritrea and Djibouti. Meanwhile, the Eritrean military is also surging troops on their side of the border in the area. A clash is possible in the coming days and weeks.

BREAKING: Europe has received $320.7 billion worth of energy supplies from Russia since 2022 - Russian DPM Novak. This figure is even larger than a $250 billion estimate by President Trump! The astounding hypocrisy of EU bureaucrats who criticize the US-Russia diesel deal. 🤷‍♂️

🚨 HOLY CRAP! Hundreds of CHILD MARRIAGES have been uncovered in just ONE German state, including girls as young as 11 and 12 — Daily Mail Syrian men made up nearly 37% of all cases. Inviting the 3rd world was a horrible idea... 🤯 Baden-Württemberg has documented 358 child marriages, according to the state government's answer to an AfD lawmakers' inquiry Recorded cases include a 12-year-old Syrian girl married to a 28-year-old man, and a 12-year-old Afghan girl married to a 21-year-old. This is what mass migration without assimilation looks like! Europe imported a culture that marries off LITTLE GIRLS. It took the AfD to drag this into the light. GERMANY NEEDS THE AFD America must NEVER let this happen here! 🇺🇸🇩🇪

If Zelenskyy continues down this path of opening supporting the Dems and the GOP still control the Senate after midterms, he’s in for a rude awakening.
Zelensky: "Everybody understands that the prices of diesel don't depend on our attacks on diesel in Russia. Everybody understands that it depends on the blocking of Hormuz, the Strait of Hormuz."

Axios reports that a White House official has said that the energy ceasefire refers to a potential deal to stop attacks on oil refineries. “A deal to stop hitting power plants and energy grids could come next” Ukraine has no functioning oil refineries which means that, if Axios’s report is accurate, the substance of the current energy ceasefire is that only Ukraine has to stop hitting Russian oil refineries. Ukraine has just one oil refinery on the territory it currently holds. The Kremenchuk oil refinery hasn’t produced a single drop of gasoline or diesel since it was hit by Russian missiles in April 2022. The Russians have kept hitting it ever since to make sure that it can’t be repaired. It has been hit by 60 missiles and 260 drones so far.
