Ukraine wants to receive long-range missiles from the West to attack targets in #Russia, #Iran and #Syria, where the #Shahed #drones are produced.

This is reported by The #Guardian with reference to the secret 47-page document that #Kiev has sent to its Western partners.

"The above may be carried out by the Ukrainian defence forces if partners provide the necessary means of destruction," Kiev suggests.

According to the article, "52 electrical components manufactured by western companies were found in the Shahed-131 drone and 57 in the Shahed-136 model, which has a flight range of 2,000km and cruising speed of 180kmh."

Meanwhile, almost all imports to Iran come from #Turkey, #India, #Kazakhstan, #Uzbekistan, #Vietnam and #CostaRica (funny they excluded China and UAE/Farhad)

According to the document, Iran has already diversified its production by using a Syrian factory with delivery to the Russian port of #Novorossiysk. It is also moving drone production to Russia's #Tatarstan.

The document says that the Iranian government is trying to "disassociate itself from providing Russia with weapons" and "cannot cope with Russian demand and the intensity of use in #Ukraine".

#Russian #journalists from Izvestia uncovered a ~prostitution~ Child Traficking ring which supplied underage Russian girls to clients in Bahrain.

The people requesting the services of the girls were mainly #Arabs from Bahrain and the surrounding countries but also American officers from the #US #Navy's 5th Fleet which is stationed in #Manama, the capital of Bahrain.

The girls, aged between 13 and 17 years old were lured to the country by a group of Russian citizens which would seize their passports and other IDs to prevent them from escaping the country and then handing them over to their #Bahraini partners.

The ring is active since at least 2013 and at least one girl died due to physical trauma at the hands of one of the abusers after trying to escape the hotel where she was housed in. They were sold to clients for between 7000 to 14.000 USD.

The journalists, which worked undercover, also found out that a lot of the girls got #pregnant and were forced to carry out #abortion late into the pregnancy with some giving birth to dead fetuses which would end up thrown into garbage bins.

Izvestia discovered that the Russian girls were significantly more expensive than the girls brought there from #Thailand, #Uzbekistan or #Vietnam.

In South #America, there was one each in #Quito and #Guayaquil, #Ecuador; #Rio de Janeiro and #SãoPaulo, #Brazil; #BuenosAires, #Argentina; and #Viña del Mar, #Chile.

Most of the Chinese overseas police stations were located in #Europe, including nine in #Spain, the most of any country on the list: three in #Madrid, three in #Barcelona, two in #Valencia and one in #Santiago de Compostela.

#Italy was hosting the second-most stations in Europe with four: #Rome, #Milan, #Florence and #Prato.

In #France, three service centers were operating out of #Paris. #Portugal also hosted one each in #Porto, #Lisbon and #Madeira. In United Kingdom, the report found two in #London and one in #Glasgow.

The #Netherlands was hosting two such centers in #Amsterdam and #Rotterdam, respectively, while the #CzechRepublic had two in #Prague. #Budapest, #Hungary, also had two, one for each of the #Fuzhou and #Qingtian police bureaus—a common phenomenon across Europe.

#Azerbaijjan officially sides with #Ukraine. Today they called #Russia an occupier, aggressor and condemned Moscow for crimes against humanity in Ukraine on national television. They also threatened #Iran with the separation of Azerbaijanis from #Tehran’s rule.

The shit is getting more complicated.

The dictatorship of Azerbaijan sides with Ukraine (what a shocker) and their call for separating Iranian northern provinces is so similar to Russia's claim on the Ukraine regions!

I truly hope things don't get any worse, because a conflict between Iran and Azerbaijan will bring #Turkey, #Armenia, #Tajikistan and #Uzbekistan into the conflict. Not to mention #Chechnia and other regions of southern Russia.
#Politics #WTF
This madness has no end!

anyway, what a pity

Chinese President #XiJinping reappeared on state television Tuesday (Sep 27) after a several-day absence from public view that sparked rumours about the 69-year-old leader’s political fortunes.
#Xi was shown visiting a display at the #Beijing Exhibition Hall on the theme of Forging Ahead into the New Era.
Accompanied by Premier Li Keqiang and other top leaders, Xi, who is also head of the ruling Communist Party and the People’s Liberation #Army, viewed some of the displays and commented on China’s economic progress over the past decade.
The visit was Xi’s first appearance on television since he returned from a regional summit in #Uzbekistan last weekend.
Under Chinese pandemic regulations, he would need to stay in quarantine for a week after returning.
