A man who was being arrested by the Ukrainian private bounty hunters to be taken to the front killed himself with a grenade.
The mobilization effort in Ukraine has reached desperate levels to fill the quota, while men of fighting age are just as desperate to leave the country.

United States government sources on June 9 confirmed that an AH-64 Apache attack helicopter was shot down by Iranian forces over the Strait of Hormuz, after the U.S. Central Command earlier in the day reported that the the aircraft “went down” off the coast of Oman without specifying the cause of the loss. “There were two pilots involved, both are safe and uninjured. Nevertheless, the United States must, of necessity, respond to this attack,” President Donald Trump reported regarding the incident. This follows the initiation of U.S.

Rarely a week passes without a new story about Russia’s shadow fleet. Tankers catch fire in the Mediterranean, are added to sanctions lists, or are boarded while passing through European waters. But the bigger story is not the vessels that are caught, but those that aren’t — ships moving between registries, ports, shell companies, and service providers that obscure their ties to Russia while keeping a sanctioned state afloat. The vessels that do get sanctioned are the visible tip of a larger scheme that North Korea spent years running, and Russia has refined at scale.

Following confirmation of the collapse of the Franco-German-Spanish Future Combat Air System (FCAS) fighter program, analysts have widely anticipated that this will further expands markets for the F-35 fifth generation fighter in Europe, both among the program’s partner countries and more broadly across the continent.

During the first sea trials of the second destroyer built for the Korean People’s Army Navy, the the Kang Kon, the chairman of the ruling Korean Workers’ Party Kim Jong Un announced that North Korea will build 10,000 ton destroyers in the future, which appears to indicate that a third class of destroyer has already been confirmed. The Choe Hyon class ships, of which two have been launched with a further two confirmed, have displacements of 5,000 tons, while in March 2026 Chairman Kim revealed that a larger class of 8,000 ton destroyers was under development.

Footage released by the Russian Ministry of Defence has shown a new modification to the Su-34 strike fighter, with the yet unseen configuration shown taking off for strikes during operations in the Ukrainian theatre. A new dorsal fairing identified can be seen aft of the cockpit on the upper fuselage spine, which is a location typically used for satellite communication antennas, datalink equipment, or electronic warfare systems that require a clear sky-facing aperture.

The Russian Navy Baltic Fleet has deployed Su-30SM2 fighters to lead exercises simulating strikes on NATO targets, following multiple close engagements between the aircraft and fighters from hostile NATO member states. “Overall, over 10 aircraft and about 100 flight and ground personnel from a composite air regiment of the Fleet’s large naval aviation formation are involved in accomplishing missions,” the Fleet’s press office stated.

A couple of days ago, CNN released footage showing the aftermath of the laundry fire, which burned several hundred living spaces aboard the USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78). Initially downplayed by U.S. Navy officials, the newly released footage shows the immense scale of the devastation, which burned over 600 bunks and berthing spaces and nearly cost the U.S. one of its most advanced naval vessels. With a clearer picture of the damage, it is clear that repairs on the supercarrier will take longer than analysts originally anticipated.

The Iran War has become an economic game of chicken. On one side, the US naval blockade has crushed Iran’s seaborne oil exports by 93 percent, with shipments reportedly falling to just 64,000 barrels per day in May. On the other side, Iran’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz is choking off roughly 20 percent of the global seaborne petroleum trade. So while Iran is running out of money, the world is running out of spare oil; neither side wants to blink first because both believe they are close to extracting their desired concessions.

New video footage obtained by CNN offers the world a look at the extent of the fire that broke out aboard the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier earlier this year. The shocking footage could provide insight into how long it may be before the Navy’s newest and most advanced carrier is fully ready to deploy again.

When the fire was first reported in March, the Ford was operating in the Red Sea. The ship was fully operational at the time, but the fire damage was so extensive that it was eventually forced out of action and sent for repairs.
