Not the Onion : The new British aircraft carrier named Queen Elizabeth, which was supposed to travel to the Middle East to participate in war operations against Yemen, broke down off the coast of England...

I guess Sunak is going to push for more tax cuts and cuts in social spendings to repair the floating junk they have on their hands.

Billionaire Peter Thiel Backs Doping-Friendly Olympics Rival — What To Know About The ‘Enhanced Games’

The Enhanced Games said it will not test athletes for drugs or other performance enhancers at its events—it is not clear when the first competition will take place—explaining it “embrace[s] the inclusion of science in sports” and is “unencumbered by anachronistic legacy systems” that are “anti-science” and stigmatize “enhanced athletes.”

Not from the onion : The Ukrainian TV channel 1+1 has said that the Ukrainian armed forces' counter-offensive was only a "psychological operation against the aggressors".

🗣 "The war is being fought not only on the ground or in the air, but also in people's minds. Ukrainian psychological operations will be described in school textbooks in the future. One of the most successful parts of the psychological operation is the counter-offensive. For several months, we deceived the enemy into believing that we were conducting a large-scale ground operation. Cyber troops spread this idea in the enemy's (Russian) social networks and minds. For months now, the Russians have been subjected to the strongest psychological warfare, while our (Ukrainian) troops have been gaining strength and getting stronger for a real counter-offensive".

Not from the Onion : Iranian news sources have admitted that an oil platform was stolen by unknown thieves!

The platform belongs to a semi private construction company and they have no idea how the thieves stole the unit without being seen or caught.

This is not the first time such unbelievable items get stolen in Iran, but it's definitely the largest and most odd item ever.

Not from the Onion : U.S. asks for help finding missing F-35 fighter jet after pilot ejects during 'mishap'

The jet was left in autopilot mode so there’s a possibility it could still be airborne somewhere over South Carolina, a spokesman at Joint Base Charleston told NBC News.

A U.S. fighter jet’s stealth abilities appear to be working too well, with authorities forced to ask the public for help finding an F-35 that went missing somewhere over South Carolina when the pilot ejected because of a “mishap.”
Joint Base #Charleston, an air base in North Charleston, said it was working with Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort to "locate an F-35 that was involved in a mishap" Sunday afternoon.

Not from the Onion : #Israel has barred the migration of hundreds of Hasidic Jews to àIran.

It's worth noting that multiple sects of the Hasidic Jewish community oppose Zionism and the State of Israel. Some of these people have requested asylum in Iran due to Israel's repressive approach towards the Hasidic community.
