US military officials also admitted to Congress that the operations have had no impact on purity. Last year, President Donald Trump ordered the Department of War to target suspected drug boats in the Caribbean. US Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) has conducted dozens of strikes, killing over 200 people. The Pentagon has…

[ad_1] Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Russia is receiving significant military support from North Korea, Iran, and China.  “I think three moments on which we have to focus. First, North Korea will send to Russia 30,000 soldiers. The second point Iranians will send missiles to Russia,” Zelensky said in an interview with Sky News on Sunday. “Then what is the really big problem: China began to work with Russia, and they work on satellites and on technologies to be more precise.” The statement follows a Ukrainian attack on an Iranian vessel in the Caspian Sea. “Ukraine continues applying long‑range…
