I spoke to one of the brigade commanders who took part in Operation Vivaldi. He said he still values tanks and thinks we will see successful armored assaults in the future. One of his Leopard tanks sustained 45 FPV strikes and is still operational.

Joint statement
————————
The Foreign Ministers of the State of Palestine, the Arab Republic of Egypt, the State of Qatar, the Republic of the Sudan, the State of Libya, the Republic of Djibouti, the Federal Republic of Somalia, the Sultanate of Oman, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Islamic Republic of Mauritania, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, the Republic of Türkiye, the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, People’s Democratic Republic of Algeria, the Republic of Lebanon , and the State of Kuwait condemn in the strongest terms the Israeli airstrike on the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, which caused casualties among patients and medical personnel, in violation of international humanitarian law, which affords special protection to medical facilities and healthcare workers.
They also condemn continued Israeli attacks on Palestinian civilians, including strikes on tents and other sites sheltering displaced persons. These attacks undermine the ceasefire and efforts to restore security and stability in Gaza and are inconsistent with President Trump’s Comprehensive Plan.
The Ministers express grave concern that continued Israeli restrictions on humanitarian aid, shelter materials, including tents, caravans and mobile homes, as well as medical supplies are deepening Gaza’s humanitarian catastrophe as winter approaches. Inadequate shelter and deteriorating water, sanitation and healthcare services put civilian lives at grave risk, particularly those of children and infants, who could once again die from exposure to freezing temperatures.
The Ministers call on Israel to heed appeals from the international community and the Board of Peace for increased aid and to fulfil immediately and in full its obligations under the Sharm El-Sheikh Agreement, President Trump’s Comprehensive Plan and United Nations Security Council Resolution 2803 (2025). Israel must uphold the ceasefire, protect civilians and medical facilities, and ensure the safe, sustained and unimpeded delivery of humanitarian aid in sufficient quantities, including shelter and early recovery supplies and equipment to restore essential infrastructure. It must also allow United Nations agencies and humanitarian organizations to carry out their mandates without obstruction.
These first-phase commitments were due to take effect upon signature. Israel must implement them without further delay or additional conditions, including political and security conditions that impede humanitarian access. Urgent humanitarian assistance must proceed independently of progress on subsequent phases.
The Ministers call on the United States and the Board of Peace, within their respective roles, to intensify their efforts to ensure Israel’s full implementation of these commitments and the lifting of all restrictions on the entry of humanitarian aid, thereby preserving the credibility of the agreements and consolidating the ceasefire.
The Ministers reaffirm their determination to work with regional and international partners to consolidate the ceasefire, implement all phases of the Plan and scale up humanitarian assistance to alleviate the suffering of the brotherly Palestinian people.

Aujourd’hui se multiplient les promesses du transhumanisme et du posthumanisme : ce sont des courants idéologiques selon lesquels — tôt ou tard — la technologie éliminera toute maladie ou douleur, ainsi que le vieillissement et même la mort elle-même. C’est précisément parce que le progrès scientifique est un fruit remarquable de l’intelligence humaine qu’il ne doit pas être confondu avec un privilège réservé aux millionnaires en quête d’immortalité, alors que des peuples entiers souffrent de la misère et de l’oppression. On nous vend ainsi l’illusion des êtres humains optimisés par la cybernétique et la biotechnologie. Face à ce mirage, l’anthropologie chrétienne rappelle que la limite n’est pas un défaut de fabrication, mais la condition même de la grandeur humaine. #VoyageApostolique #Pérou #MagnificaHumanitas vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/f…

ヴァイキングを象徴する戦斧は、中世当時にコスト、実用性、戦闘での有効性のバランスが非常に良い武器だった。
剣は良質な鉄や鋼を大量に使い、熟練の鍛冶師が時間をかけて作る必要があった。その価格は「数頭から十数頭の乳牛相当」と言われ、自由民の多くは買うことすらできなかった。一方、斧は刃の部分だけ鉄（先端を鋼で補強）で造ればよく、柄は木材で済む。普通の鍛冶屋でも作れ、材料も少なくて済んだ。ヴァイキング時代の自由人男性はほぼ全員が斧を持っており、考古資料でも剣より斧頭の出土例が圧倒的に多い。
また、ヴァイキングの多くは農民、職人、船大工だった。斧は薪割り、家や長船の建造、伐採など日常で必須の道具だった。戦闘時にそのまま武器として使え、特別に武装しなくても出撃できた。これが「庶民の武器」としての斧の普及を決定づけた。
武器としての有用性を考えると、重心が刃先に集中するため、盾を割り、兜や鎖帷子に強い衝撃を与え、手足を切断する力があった。剣より「一撃の重さ」で勝る場面が多かったと言える。
ヴァイキング社会は「全員が戦士になり得る」社会だったため、高価な剣より「誰でも手に入り、日常でも使え、戦場でも十分に殺傷力がある」斧が圧倒的に合理的だった。

クリエイターは政治的な意見を述べるべきだとか、述べるべきじゃないとかは、クリエイター各自が自由に決めることでしかないんです。
自分の好きな作品を描いているクリエイターは『自分と同じ政治的な意見を持っていなければならないし、それを発信する義務がある』とか言われると、それは違うよ。

Ukrainian authorities have announced that the forced mobilisation actions of the TCC in the city of Slovyansk, Donetsk Oblast, will be significantly increased.
The Kramatorsk District TCC, which covers most of the remaining parts of Donetsk Oblast still under Ukrainian control, will begin conducting additional checks of military records for conscripts and those who can be subjected to mobilisation in Slovyansk. Plans for checking military registrations at enterprises and other institutions in and around Slovyansk have also been updated.
This is despite Slovyansk's civilian population dwindling to around 20,000, compared to a pre-war population of over 100,000, and its close proximity to the frontline.

「今の戦争は、ウクライナの大統領がゼレンスキー氏だから続いているのではありません。ロシアの大統領がプーチン氏だから、止まらないのです」
ウクライナ報道にかかわる人にとっては常識なのだが、どうもこの基本から間違っている人がいるんだよな。

昨日はミサイルが3発着弾。戦っている者は恩赦を活用せよ、敵勢力が関係する場所は攻撃対象だから離れよ、といったメッセージがフーシ派から日々届きます。
フーシ派は自分たちがイエメン政府という認識なので、敵はあくまでもサウジアラビアとサウジアラビアに与するものたちという形。

ウクライナの安全保障について、欧米はNATO第5条型を検討しているが、現実的ではない。どの国もウクライナに部隊を派遣する気がなく、ロシアと衝突する覚悟もないからで、口先以上の信頼性に欠ける。ウクライナ軍を支援増強する方が現実的だ。エリック・シャラメラ論考。 rusi.org/explore-our-researc…

As a result of the last 7 months of Ukrainian counteroffensive operations near Komar, Donetsk Oblast, Ukrainian forces have recaptured around 440 km² of territory.
When including territory regained by separate counteroffensive operations in the Pokrovs'ke direction, that number increased to a total of 760 km² recaptured in the 9 months since February 2026 in this general area.
In the Komar area, Russian forces have been steadily pulling back towards Velyka Novosilka, and only sporadically counterattacking in a couple of areas at times. Apart from these occasional counterattacks, which were mostly concentrated in Komar itself last month, they have been almost entirely in a sector-wide state of retreat since April, and are now seemingly pulling back even further from their previous lines towards the north of Velyka Novosilka and the west of Bahatyr.
The attached map shows approximately how Ukrainian forces carried out their counteroffensive. While it started off with a general focus on pushing east, many of the forces involved have seemingly begun pivoting south in recent weeks, and after recapturing the town of Komar, they are moving simultaneously towards the next towns of Bahatyr and Velyka Novosilka.
However, with the first snow expected in the near future and winter subsequently setting in, I doubt the Ukrainian command will pursue significantly more advances than what they have already achieved since spring.
Situation on the Velyka Novosilka & Bahatyr directions, Donetsk Oblast:
Over the last few weeks, Ukrainian forces continued their counteroffensive near Komar, and have not only managed to recapture the town, but also made significant progress on the flanks towards the next towns of Velyka Novosilka and Bahatyr.
In the northeast, Ukrainian forces continued their gradual advance east of Piddubne, slowly expanding their bridgehead east of the Mokri Yaly River. Following a multi-pronged assault from the north and east, they were able to clear the remaining Russian positions in the former salient there, linking up with their positions near Perebudova.
To the south, following weeks of stalemate, Ukrainian forces finally managed to break the Russian resistance in the centre of Komar, establishing control over the remaining buildings there and beginning infiltrations into the eastern streets. Similar actions were carried out in the northern and southern streets, as the Russian presence slowly became smaller and smaller. Eventually, they were able to dislodge the Russians from their last positions on the southeastern outskirts and re-established full control over the town. Some small Ukrainian infiltration groups are already using these newly captured areas to infiltrate south along the eastern bank of the Mokri Yaly River, entering the forests east of Vesele.
To the southwest, after recapturing Fedorivka, Ukrainian assault groups pushed further south and captured the trench fortifications on the northern outskirts of Vesele. They also expanded their zone of control in the fields northwest of Fedorivka and southwest of Komar, and cleared a large part of the former Russian salient between Voskresenka and Komar, as Russian forces steadily fall back to positions north of Velyka Novosilka.
Further southwest, Ukrainian forces continued to slowly advance through the fields towards the Mokri Yaly River, where they regained control over a large number of positions southeast of Voskresenka. From here, individual Ukrainian infiltration and DRG groups are infiltrating along the treelines on at least two different routes towards the southern outskirts of Vesele and the nearby village of Skudne. Other assault groups managed to clear the northeastern part of Shevchenko and are using these positions to infiltrate southeast towards the outskirts of Burlatske. Clearing operations in the last streets of southeastern Shevchenko are still being completed, amid continued Ukrainian attempts to reach Vilne Pole from the north.
+ ~32.02 km² in favour of Ukraine.
