Edition No163 | 19-06-2025 - Iran and Israel launch more attacks, and sources suggest Trump is weighing the final decision about US involvement. Earlier, Trump said "I may do it, I may not do it." Classic ambiguity and chaotic political theater from Trump, but he has a real dilemma here, and advisors within MAGA are split on the approach. Go the slogan of ‘no more wars' or pursue an aggressive Middle East foreign policy. According to various sources, Trump approved plans to attack Iran but has not made a final decision on whether to launch strikes. That decision may not rest on the strategic implications or morality of the question, but simply what the chance of success is. Trump may not want to be associated with a failure, or a fiasco. The decision could simply rest on tactical outcomes. The Iranians will not "grovel at the gates of the White House," but are thought to be keen to deescalate without losing face and are also keen for the US to stay out of the action. So far, the US has not asked to use UK bases in Cyprus or Diego Garcia for possible strikes, and Trump may also have been informed that the US need more military assets in the region to prepare for the consequences of strikes. That could take several days to move platforms and assets into the region, giving Trump yet more space for ambiguous hints and to delay taking a decision. Iran's supreme leader warned Trump of "irreparable harm" if the US joins Israel's campaign to degrade Iran's military & nuclear capabilities – but would they act on the threat?----------Links: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cx23e4jz2g0thttps://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/iran-israel-conflict-newshttps://www.politico.eu/article/donald-trump-vladimir-putin-mediate-israel-iran-conflict-us-russia-benjamin-netanyahu/https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jun/19/trump-caution-on-iran-strike-linked-to-doubts-over-bunker-buster-bomb-officials-sayhttps://www.ft.com/content/8e4609c6-ffb9-4f5c-8b25-d730b45324dc----------Car for Ukraine has once again joined forces with a group of influencers, creators, and news observers during this summer.

Edition No161 | 17-06-2025 - Trump has fled the G7, where it seems like his only significant contribution was to whine about how unfair it was that his fiend Vald has been kicked out of the club. He then repeated a total fantasy story, about how it was Justin Trudeau's fault Russia was kicked out and that Putin would never have gone to war if 1) he had been president and 2) Trudeau and pals had not been so mean to Putin. The reality of course, is that Russia was ejected from the G8 precisely because it started a war in Crimea and then Donbas in 2014, and Justin Trudeau would not become premier of Canada until 2015. The most shocking thing perhaps, was not that Trump would lies and spin fantasies so readily, but that no leader was prepared to confront those falsehoods and blatant lies publicly. Nothing must spoil the photo ops. So, the endless photo opportunities the event created for world leaders, look like it'll amount to little more than that. No decisions were reached. No joint communiques were issued. No press releases agreed upon or published. And Trump departs the day before he was supposed to meet Zelenskyy – an encounter and conversation that likely will not happen. If it was Trump's intention to turn the G7 into a hollow facade, a kind of zombie institution, then there is little more he could have done to achieve this. If we are conspiratorially minded, degrading and eliminating another fixture of international cooperation was top of Putin's wish list. The symbolism of Russia's contempt for international institutions and the Western world could not have been made plainer by the massive attack on Kyiv to coincide with the G7 meeting.----------Links: https://kyivindependent.com/trump-to-depart-g7-summit-ahead-of-june-17-meeting-with-zelensky/https://unn.ua/en/news/negotiations-instead-of-weapons-the-us-is-effectively-stopping-military-aid-to-ukrainehttps://kyivindependent.com/kyiv-hit-by-russian-drones-and-ballistic-missiles-over-a-dozen-injured/ ----------Car for Ukraine has once again joined forces with a group of influencers, creators, and news observers during this summer.

Edition No160 | 16-06-2025 - Is the regime in Iran on the brink of collapse, as Israel continues to target strategic military and regime objects in Iran? Regime change is more openly being talked about as the key objective of the Israeli strikes, but have they bitten off more than they can chew? Netanyahu, the Israeli Prime Minister has urged ordinary Iranians to seize the moment and overthrow Khamenei, his clerics and the theocratic elite that has ruled Iran since the 1979 revolution. A top aid to Iran's ruler Ali Khamenei is reported to be attempting to flee the country. Ali Asghar Hejazi is Deputy Chief-of-Staff to Iran's Supreme Leader and one of the most influential players in Iran's political establishment. Perhaps trying to force the pace of events, Israel continues its aerial attacks on the Islamic Republic. In an indication of who may suffer most if the regime falls, the regime enforcer is apparently in negotiations with Kremlin officials over securing asylum in Russia.Israel sees Iran's nuclear capabilities as an existential threat to its existence – this much is clear from the attacks that began last Friday. But why now, and why such a comprehensive series of attacks, not merely symbolic, but at scale and designed to severely degrade Tehran's ability to wage war in all its forms. One reason is clearly the inability of the Western powers to persuade Iran to stop its development of a nuclear weapons capability, favouring negotiations that have done nothing to halt this progress, and the other is the fear that an increasingly malignant Russia will help Iran to further accelerate its development of a nuclear capability, and then may help scale up production.----------Links: https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2025/jun/16/israel-iran-conflict-haifa-power-plant-tel-aviv-missile-strike-live-updates-middle-east?page=with%3Ablock-684fa1028f08c7927fc46678&filterKeyEvents=false#liveblog-navigationhttps://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c79e233j2grohttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4g3nz1p9wdohttps://www.express.co.uk/news/world/2068993/iran-ali-asghar-hejazi-asylum-russiahttps://www.express.co.uk/news/world/2069043/trump-israel-iran-war-leader ----------Car for Ukraine has once again joined forces with a group of influencers, creators, and news observers during this summer.

Carlo Ferrari è tornato in Ucraina per portare altre attrezzature mediche per i soldati al fronte e ha avuto modo di verificare di persona la situazione nelle zone calde dove i giornalisti italiani non vanno da tempo. Ne è scaturita una testimonianza preziosa per comprendere che le avanzate dei russi sono come pugni tirati ad un sacco di farina. Sollevano polvere ma non ottengono alcun risultato strategico perché conquistano con perdite pesantissime piccoli fabbricati circondati dalla vastità della pianura. RINGRAZIAMENTI Le associazioni Liberi Oltre e Lilea di Firenze sono le organizzazioni che hanno raccolto 22k, + il canale Resistenza Ucraina di Nane Cantatore, Valerio Federico e Gastone Breccia che si è aggiunto raccogliendo altri 8000 euro il che ha permesso l'acquisto di 45 zaini e 20 kit di emergenza da trincea, il tutto in collaborazione con la ONG VELIKAIA DANILIVKAIA di Kharkiv.

Edition No159 | 13-06-2025 - Summary- Friday 13th superstitions – unlucky for some, auspicious for others? - Wide-scale attack to ‘decapitate serpent'- Partial evacuations were a signal of impending strike - Was US talk of deal with Iran a smokescreen, or genuine? - Oil price spike in reaction – long term? - Diversion of air defense missile component to Iran- Iran distracted from supporting Russia in Ukraine- Transfer of Shaheed manufacturing already complete? - Spectacle of Western military defending Israeli skies and not Ukraine As Israel strikes Iran, one of the key questions is whether this was done with the approval of the US, or whether Netanyahu is now fully unrestrained in his foreign policy – untethered from any outside pressure or influence. Has the US decision to apparently retreat from the region led to a greater likelihood of conflict – or are these preemptive strikes against Iran being done with tacit US approval for a range of reasons, not least to soften Iran up ahead of another effort to negotiate a nuclear accord? ----------Links: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jun/13/israels-strikes-on-iran-show-trump-is-unable-to-restrain-netanyahu-as-middle-east-slips-closer-to-chaoshttps://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn4qe4w1n2gohttps://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/12/trump-wanted-an-iran-deal-fast-now-he-may-get-military-confrontation.htmlhttps://www.thenationalnews.com/news/mena/2025/06/12/us-embassy-evacuations-signal-threat-of-strike-on-iran-experts-say/ ----------Car for Ukraine has once again joined forces with a group of influencers, creators, and news observers during this summer.

It's been a week of escalating global tensions. Israel launched a series of targeted strikes on Iran – codenamed Operation Rising Lion – aimed at crippling Tehran's nuclear capabilities. Iran has vowed a swift response. In the United States, protests erupted in Los Angeles over immigration enforcement, as federal officers intensified roundups of undocumented migrants – part of President Donald Trump's broader plan for mass deportations. Meanwhile in Ukraine, Kyiv, Kharkiv, and Odesa came under heavy fire. Russia launched one of its largest aerial assaults yet, striking the capital with a wave of 315 drones and ballistic missiles. And in Europe, NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte delivered a stark warning in London: defence spending is no longer optional –it's existential.

Police and protesters clashed outside a federal detention center in Los Angeles yesterday, following immigration raids that led to dozens of arrests across the city. Mayor Karen Bass condemned the raids, while White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller asserted that “federal law will be enforced.”The feud between President Trump and Elon Musk continues to intensify. In an interview with NBC today, the president warned that the tech billionaire will face “very serious consequences” if he funds Democratic candidates. Meanwhile, some of Musk's most controversial posts on X targeting Trump have since been removed from the platform.The mayor of Kharkiv, in Ukraine, says the city has just experienced its worst attack since the war with Russia began. Local officials report that at least 40 explosions rocked Kharkiv Saturday morning, killing four people and wounding more than 60.

Fires burning across Canada continue to force people out of their homes.  Russia pummels Kharkiv, Ukraine's second largest city, in overnight attack that kills three.  Ottawa's move to eliminate internal trade barriers leaves the heavy lifting to provinces. Researchers say Australia's iconic sulphur-crested cockatoos are more intelligent that previously thought.

In our news wrap Saturday, Russian drone and missile attack killed four people in Kharkiv, Palestinian health officials say at least 95 people people in Gaza were killed by a series of Israeli airstrikes over a 24-hour period, President Trump says he has no desire to repair the relationship Elon Musk and a former police chief was caught after a prison escape in the mountains of northern Arkansas.

In today's bulletin, hundreds of protesters call for justice over the death of Aboriginal man Kuminjayi White, three people killed in Russia's biggest drone attack on Ukraine's Kharkiv since the start of the war. And in sport, the Sydney Swans have secured a 44-point win over Richmond Tigers.

Edition No152 | 05-06-2025 - Tensions between Elon Musk and Donald Trump seem to have been bubbling below the surface for days and have now erupted into the public realm. Not just a few traded barbs, but full-scale war (by social media) seems to have broken out, and it's getting real ugly, real quickly. Buckle up, crack out the mega bucket of popcorn and let's five into the MAGA civil war that's just kicked off in loonyland. Relations between President Trump and techbro billionaire Elon Musk seem to have reached breaking point. During an Oval Office meeting with the German chancellor, Trump spoke of his surprise and disappointment in Musk. The trigger was his criticism of Trump's signature legislation. ----------Links: https://www.bbc.com/news/live/cyvm2181lqvt----------SUMMER FUNDRAISERSNAFO & Silicon Curtain community - Let's help help 5th SAB together https://www.help99.co/patches/nafo-silicon-curtain-communityWe are teaming up with NAFO 69th Sniffing Brigade to provide 2nd Assault Battalion of 5th SAB with a pickup truck that they need for their missions.

On Sunday, Ukraine carried out a coordinated drone attack within Russian territory hitting dozens of Russian bombers. The attack, called Operation Spider's Web, used 117 Ukrainian drones hidden at four different air bases across Russia to strike 41 Russian aircraft, according to Ukrainian officials. Ukrainian security services claim the strikes caused $7 billion in damage and took out over a third of Russia's nuclear-capable airplanes. Later on Sunday night, Russia launched 472 drones and seven missiles, striking at least 18 locations in Ukraine, with explosions reported in the cities of Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia.

Our goal is an effective and democratic society united by healthy communication. The organization was founded in 2013 to bring together media professionals from Ukraine and around the world in Lviv for the annual LMF conference. Over the years, we have grown into an ecosystem of people, organizations, and projects that support the media, develop comprehensive solutions for them, and promote the best media practices in Ukraine and globally. We are moving from supporting and developing media and journalists to a broader strategic focus: empowering communication actors, including media, civil society organizations, government bodies, and more. https://lvivmediaforum.com/enhttps://conference.lvivmediaforum.com/----------Your support is massively appreciated!
