The possible use of humanoid robots by the military was demonstrated in a video.
Footage of tests of humanoid robots at a shooting range of the People's Liberation Army of China has appeared on social media.
The machines, visually similar to the Unitree G1 from Unitree Robotics, are practicing shooting, reloading, moving, and overcoming obstacles with weapons.
The shooting is carried out from assault rifles QBZ-191 and marksman rifles QBU-191 under an intermediate cartridge of 5.8×42 mm caliber.
The Unitree G1 has a height of 127 cm, a weight of about 35 kg, and an autonomous operation time of up to 2 hours.
The two-legged machine is controlled via a wireless remote or a mobile app. It is possible to train it to perform autonomous special tasks and to implement an artificial intelligence module.
Probably, the video footage was generated by a neural network, but nevertheless, it perfectly illustrates a new area of further technological development of robotic complexes on the battlefield.
Humanoid robots, following air, sea, and land drones, may be used for military purposes in the near future.

❗️🇪🇺🇷🇺🇺🇦There will be no end to the war in 2026: this is reported by 5 heads of intelligence services in Europe, according to Reuters.
❗️From the Piers Morgan show interviewing the gnome.
No one in Ukraine will support withdrawal from Donbass. Just surrender it? — Zelensky.
⭕️"I will never reject any proposal if it brings peace."
⭕️"When we announce a ceasefire for at least 2 months, I will raise the issue of elections."
⭕️"We don't have enough forces to return the occupied territories."
⭕️"Ukraine has done everything to become a member of NATO. Now it's up to them to decide."
⭕️"I'm not interested in all this historical bullshit — the reasons why Putin attacked us."
⭕️"I can't understand the relationship between Trump and Putin."
⭕️"There is corruption in Ukraine, but we are fighting against it and building a large anti-corruption infrastructure."
⭕️"The next negotiations will also be in Switzerland. As for the territories: we all three have different points of view."

From approximately 12am to 6am on the morning of February 21, Kyiv time (approximately 41 hours from now), Russia will likely carry out another large-scale, combined missile and drone attack on Ukraine, primarily targeting Kyiv City and Kyiv Oblast.
This is the attack that I have been warning about for the last 2 days. As I have already stated, it will not involve Tu-95MS or Tu-160M strategic bombers.
So what will be used?
- At least 3 Tu-22m3 strategic bombers. 3 of these were equipped with Kh-22/32 cruise missiles at Shaykovka Airbase, Kaluga Oblast, as I reported earlier. They may redeploy back to Olenya Airbase in the next 24 hours.
- At least a dozen Iskander-M ballistic missiles. These were delivered to Khalino Airbase, Kursk Oblast, Baltimore Airbase, Voronezh Oblast, and delivered to OTRK installations in Kursk Oblast, Voronezh Oblast, and Bryansk Oblast. There were also likely deliveries to Taganrog, Rostov Oblast, however it is unclear if these will be used in this upcoming attack.
- Likely 16-24 Kalibr cruise missiles from 3 surface Kalibr carriers at Novorossiysk Naval Base, Krasnodar Krai.
- Possibly Kinzhal hypersonic aeroballistic missiles from MiG-31K fighters at Savasleika Airbase, Nizhny Novgorod Oblast.
The primary target will be energy infrastructure Kyiv Oblast. The highest threat is to the CHP-5, CHP-5 and CHP-6 combined heat and power plants, the "Kyiv" 750 kV substation, and Trypillya Thermal Power Plant. Targets in other regions will probably also be hit - likely in Dnipropetrovsk and/or Kharkiv Oblasts.

Oil prices are rising amid growing tensions between the US and Iran
Trump's traders are looking to the future with hope. A couple of billion dollars were made in just half a day.
The price of US WTI oil rose by 3.6% and exceeded $64 per barrel after Axios reported that any US military operation is likely to last several weeks, rather than being a targeted operation, as it was in Venezuela last month.

A record five Boeing E-3 Sentry long-range radar detection and targeting aircraft of the US Air Force are flying to the Middle East to manage the air operation against Iran.
The Russian Starlink is ready for launch.
16 satellites of the new Russian communication system "Rassvet" are ready for launch in the first quarter of 2026.
At the first stage, it is planned to deploy a grouping of low-orbit devices in the amount of 300 units, then increase it to 950 satellites.
"Rassvet", as stated, will provide a data transfer rate of up to 1 Gbit/s.

The police appeared at the home of the disgraced king's brother, Andrew, after Starmer stated that "no one is above the law in the UK", and nine British police departments were assessing the feasibility of launching investigations into allegations related to Epstein, including human trafficking and sexual assault.
King Charles stated that he is ready to assist the police in the investigation.
The Queen's second son may have passed on confidential information to Epstein while serving as a UK trade representative.
There are also allegations that he may have secretly brought a woman to Buckingham Palace, who was possibly brought to the UK on Epstein's plane, the "Lolita Express".
Andrew denies any wrongdoing.
👉🏻But not arrested for kneeling on all fours across a girl who looked underage who appeared to be unconscious.

The US State Department wants to create an "anti-censorship" portal for Europe
According to Reuters, under the guise of fighting censorship, the Americans plan to launch an online service that will give Europeans free access to blocked resources.
▪️ All traffic will pass through servers in the USA, and users' activity will not be tracked.
Even lawyers within the State Department are sounding the alarm: they call the project reckless and dangerous.
▪️The presentation of the project has already been postponed — it could seriously worsen relations with European allies.

At the peace talks, the idea of a demilitarized zone in Donbass, in which neither army would be present, is being discussed, according to The New York Times.
According to the publication's sources, during consultations in recent weeks, officials discussed the idea of creating a demilitarized zone not controlled by either army.
"This revives a proposal that was included in previous peace plans, including the 28-point plan put forward by the Trump administration in November," writes NYT.
The publication adds that in order to make it easier for both sides to accept this idea, negotiators also discussed the creation of a free trade zone in any possible demilitarized zone. However, it notes the practical difficulty of establishing a free trade zone in a territory squeezed between two armies.

🇺🇦“I found $653,000 in my grandmother’s garage”: the head of the State Ecological Inspection of Ukraine reported on the origin of the money😁
Ukrainian civil servant Alexander Subbotenko had to explain the origin of hundreds of thousands of dollars after journalists discovered them in his 2024 declaration.
▪️ He told the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption that he found the money in the garage of the "Progress" cooperative in Kharkov after inheriting the property from his grandmother.
The official also referred to a "family rule" of converting the hryvnia equivalent into dollars and keeping cash for living expenses.....😎

🇸🇰🇺🇦 — The Slovak Prime Minister stated that Zelensky is deeply mistaken if he believes that pressure through the "Druzhba" oil pipeline will bring Kiev closer to the European Union.
▪️ Earlier in Kiev, they announced about"damage" to a section of the "Druzhba" pipeline. Hungary and Slovakia are sure that this is political sabotage — deliveries are being artificially blocked.
In response, both countries stopped the export of diesel to Ukraine until the full resumption of oil transit. Slovakia additionally threatened to cut off energy supplies as well.

I'm pretty much convinced there will be an attack on Iran mainly because Israel DEMANDS an attack and Trump has to comply, even though it's risky for him politically if it doesn't go as planned due to the upcoming mid-term elections

That's why Trump is now closer than ever to deciding to start a war with Iran, reports Axios journalist Barak Ravid, citing a high-ranking official in the US administration.
▪️Earlier it was reported that the US was ready to strike Iran as early as this weekend, but Trump has not yet given his consent.
— Barak Ravid
👉As a lot of the more reliable analysts were saying, the talks were about buying time to bring in more forces

— When you look at footage of Operation True Promise-2 as opposed to Iran's operations during the 12-Day War, it's clear why preemptive strikes are so important.
During True Promise-2, Iran had the initiative, we attacked from multiple missile bases that were fully operational and when Israel did not expect it. As a result, at least 50 missiles hit their targets in one wave. Unfortunately Iran didn't target Tel Aviv metropolitan area during that operation, it would've been very effective.
Anyway, during the 12-Day War, Iranian missile bases were heavily suppressed, which led to a lesser volume of missiles being launched simultaneously and therefore less hits in each wave due to easier interceptions.
In my opinion it's a waste of missiles to wait for the enemy to attack first. Iran's missiles provide their primary advantage when used in an offensive context, when Iran is the attacker—not the attacked.

🇷🇺 Key takeaways from Lavrov’s interview with Al Arabiya:
➡️ Russia is not seeking war and does not want conflicts;
➡️ The Kiev regime remains the main obstacle to resolving the crisis;
➡️ The Munich Security Conference has reduced everything to one message: Russia is the enemy and must be crushed;
➡️ Lavrov said he hopes Europe’s current political class will move away from this path and that more pragmatic forces will prevail;
➡️ Those branding Hungary and Slovakia as “Russian accomplices” are showing nostalgia for their own Nazi past;
➡️ The US is trying to push Russia out of global energy markets, despite rhetoric about future cooperation;
➡️ Syrian authorities view Russia’s presence at Khmeimim and Tartus as a stabilizing factor balancing other external players;
➡️ Lavrov said Washington is acting rationally by reducing forces in northeast Syria, but warned it could create new regional threats;
➡️ He warned of serious consequences if new strikes are carried out against Iran;
➡️ Lavrov called demands in Geneva for Iran to fully abandon its right to enrich uranium unacceptable;
➡️ Putin has established trusting and mutually beneficial ties with Saudi Arabia’s leadership;
➡️ Russian Muslims are grateful to Saudi Arabia for special attention and a significant Hajj quota.

JUST IN - Trump says if Iran doesn't make a deal the U.S. may have to use its military bases located on Diego Garcia and the UK, and warns that an attack from Iran "would potentially be made on the UK, as well as other friendly Countries."
