[infosisraelnews]

Une bombe de 500 kg est tombée d'un F-15 sur la cour d'une maison en bordure de Gaza : "un dysfonctionnement inhabituel et grave"

Un événement inhabituel à Otef : une bombe de 500 kg tombée d’un F-15 de l’armée de l’air a été trouvée  (vendredi) entre des maisons du Moshav Yated, dans la région d’Eshkol.  Le missile tombé Des démineurs et des représentants de l’armée de l’air sont arrivés sur les lieux et ont découvert que, heureusement, la bombe n’avait pas été « déclenchée » et n’avait donc pas explosé. L’armée…

The price of a loaf of bread is £1 & a 25 kg bag of flour is £500. Despite that, we can barely find them in the markets. We are living a real famine due to the imposition of a complete siege & the closure of the crossings by the occupation for more than two months.

Eggs, chicken & meat of all kinds They were banned from entering through commercial crossings to torture and punish us, innocent civilians. A kilo of rice costs £12 and a kilo of sugar £15. Most essential foodstuffs are banned. We have been living on canned peas & beans for over 411 days.

Every day we stand for up to 3 hours to get a gallon of water to drink & we spend hours of the day securing & providing some food & drink to keep us alive.

Displaced from our home 7 times & now living in a Tent that lacks of Life The tents' waste, including garbage & sewage, is spread around us, causing the spread of very serious diseases such as hepatitis, polio, the spread of mosquitoes & insects. as well as we lost our jobs, salaries & everything.

We were asked through leaflets dropped by the occupation to move from the north of the Gaza Strip to the south, so we left our homes & everything in them since October 2023, thinking that we would return after a week, & here we are waiting to return from 14 months. Our home was demolished due to the bombing of a tower next to it.

The number of WAR martyrs has reached more than 43,000, & the wounded are more than 103,000, of whom more than 35,000 have become disabled. Internationally banned missiles & bombs are used to kill us. Every day between 60 - 100 people die. In the north & the south of GAZA.

I'm collecting donations to provide food & drink for me & my family of 8, including 4 children under the age of 10.

Also, thanks to your generous donations, we will travel outside Gaza & buy a small house to start a new life. But we still need your donations very badly to travel as soon as possible because death is chasing us from everywhere. Your donations save us.

Just had a terrifying thought, what if Ordis wasn't being hyperbolic?

In the secret Cephalon fragment recordings Ordis says he's killed enough people to create "a colossal moon of rib and skull". He was probably exaggerating but what if he wasn't?

The mass of the smallest moon in the solar system, Deimos, is roughly 1.5×1015 kg. The average human weighs around 70 kg. Doing the math that's roughly 21 trillion people killed to make this corpse moon.

This is an incredibly large number but honestly isn't entirely impossible.

For starters he wouldn't have had to do this all immediately, people in Warframe live for an incredibly long time. Darvo is 105 and is considered to be a teenager. If we assume Darvo is roughly 18 in our years then it's entirely possible he would've 4 to 5 centuries to complete his genocide rock.

Now about kill counts. During the Solaris United ARG it's stated that the Tenno killed 7 million Corpus in 3 hours. In order to reach 20 trillion corpses in 500 years Ordis would need to double that kill count. It certainly isn't possible for him to do it all personally but given that he was the Commander of a mercenary company distinguished enough to have one of its members offered the kuva it's possible he could've indirectly caused that many deaths with armies, bombs, starvation tactics, and other means.

Since he did this during the Height of the Orokin age which sees the Origin System as severely overpopulated its possible there were this many people around for him to kill.

Whenever I throw the good ol 500 kg bomb, I always shout “FIVE HUNDRED KILOGRAM… BOMB!” like it’s a spell. Thank you for your work in making that happen!

I live to spread democracy!

Thank you for letting me do so.

French AASM Hammer Bomb Spotted On Ukrainian MiG-29

March 18, 2024 Troubled Areas, War in Ukraine

Ukrainian MiG-29 AASM

Few months after it was announced, we now have visual confirmation of the guided bomb being employed by Ukrainian MiG-29s.

An image of a MiG-29 of the Ukrainian Air Force, armed with a French-made AASM Hammer guided bomb, emerged online few days ago. The photo represents the first visual evidence of the weapon being used in the country after both Ukraine and Russia claimed the weapon was being employed earlier this month.

The image comes after French President Emmanuel Macron announced in January 2024 that the country will supply Ukraine with 50 AASM bombs per month and a total of 40 additional SCALP missiles throughout 2024. The deliveries reportedly started immediately after the announcement, but only this month the first use of the weapon was reported.

In particular, the commander of the Ukrainian Air Force, Lieutenant General Mykola Oleshchuk, published the UAV footage of what was claimed as the first AASM strike, as well as an image of a 250 kg AASM bomb with a writing in Cyrillic saying “For the children of Odesa. With hatred, without respect”. Shortly thereafter, Russian officials claimed that they intercepted and shot down an AASM bomb.

The AASM “Hammer” (Armement Air-Sol Modulaire “Highly Agile Modular Munition Extended Range”) is a kit, consisting of a nose guidance section and a tail range extension kit, that can be applied to 250 kg and 1000 kg bombs (125 kg and 500 kg variants are under consideration). The kit is offered in three variants: inertial and GPS guidance, GPS, inertial and laser guidance, and SBU-64 GPS, inertial, and infrared guidance.

The weapon can be employed day or night, under all weather conditions, at stand-off ranges which can reach over 70 km when launched from high altitude. The AASM can also be employed effectively at low altitude (with Safran saying it can still reach stand-off ranges) and highly off-axis respect to the target, and has the ability to perform precision vertical strikes, much like many missiles’ top-down attack capability.

The weapon has been fully integrated on the Rafale, while it has been integrated as stand-alone system on the Mirage 2000, Mirage F1 and F-16. Because of this, it was expected that the AASM would be used by the F-16 once delivered to Ukraine. Instead, the weapon is being already employed by the MiG-29.

While the quality of the photo doesn’t allow to discern details, it appears that the AASM is possibly being used in conjunction with the same pylon developed to carry the JDAM ER bombs already delivered to Ukraine. For the JDAM ER, in fact, a special pylon was developed with an extension forward of the bomb attachment points, possibly housing an antenna or an emitter of some kind.

The United States paused a shipment of bombs to Israel last week over fears it would invade the southern Gaza city of Rafah, an official said Tuesday, marking the first time in the conflict that President Joe Biden has squeezed military aid to the key US ally.

Washington halted the load of 1,800 2,000-lb (907 kg) bombs and 1,700 500-lb (226 kg) bombs after Israel had not “fully addressed” US concerns about a major ground operation, a senior administration official said.

News of the move comes as the White House blasted the “unacceptable” closure of the Rafah border crossing with Egypt after Israel sent tanks in earlier Tuesday — while holding out hope for a ceasefire with Hamas.

The pausing of weapons marks the first time that Biden has acted on the warning that he gave Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in April that US policy on Gaza would depend on how Israel treated civilians.

The US official said Biden’s administration made the decision on the weapons when it appeared Israel was on the verge of a major ground operation into Rafah, which Washington has strongly opposed as more than a million people are sheltering there.

Israeli and US officials had been discussing alternatives but “those discussions are ongoing and have not fully addressed our concerns,” the senior US official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.

“As Israeli leaders seemed to approach a decision point on such an operation, we began to carefully review proposed transfers of particular weapons to Israel that might be used in Rafah. This began in April.”

The US official said Washington was “especially focused” on the use of the heaviest 2,000-lb bombs “and the impact they could have in dense urban settings as we have seen in other parts of Gaza.”

“We have not made a final determination on how to proceed with this shipment,” the official said.

The US State Department is still reviewing other weapons transfers, including the use of precision bomb kits known as JDAMs, added the official.

The White House said earlier that Israel had promised the military thrust into Rafah earlier Tuesday was a “limited operation” and not the feared full-scale invasion.

Qui, nel poligono interforze della Nato a Teulada, unica vera zona franca dell’Isola, in vigore solo per generali e ministri, dove da decenni si consumano senza tregua missili e bombe di ogni genere, vige l’impunità, quella per disastro ambientale. Da una parte i legali dei generali, sotto giudizio al Tribunale di Cagliari, invocano assoluzioni e non luogo a procedere e dall’altra, gli stessi graduati, mettono nero su bianco lo scempio che ha devastato quell’area naturalistica trasformata in una discarica di veleni e pericoli.

Hey, Insta-Freunde! 🌸🍀

Schaut mal, was ich heute in meinem Garten entdeckt habe - eine riesengroße braunrote Nacktschnecke! 🐌💕

Ich möchte euch gerne vorstellen: "Schleimi Braunrot" - ein wahrlich kreativer Name (und diesmal nicht politisch gemeint!). Diese Schnecke frisst sich tapfer durch die Pilze unter den Hecken und Bäumen, lässt aber meine geliebten Funkien (Hostas) verschont. Danke, liebe Nacktschnecke Frau/Herr Schleimi Braunrot, dass du den Rest meines Gartens verschonst! 🙏

Ich wünsche euch allen ein erholsames und kreatives Wochenende, egal ob mit oder ohne Schnecken im Garten. Genießt das Leben in vollen Zügen, wenn ihr schmerzfrei seid! Und wenn nicht, dann schont euch und versucht dennoch das Beste aus der Situation zu machen. Denn der Schmerz verschwindet nicht einfach so, aber schöne Erlebnisse und Unternehmungen können ihn erträglicher machen. 💪

Ich bin so dankbar, dass ich hier auf Instagram Fotos mit euch teilen kann und eure Geschichten, Gärten, Rezepte, Ideen und Erlebnisse mitbekomme. Oft erfreuen sie mich und manchmal fühle ich mich sogar, als wäre ich bei euch im Garten oder Zuhause dabei. Oder ihr ladet mich ein, mit euch auf Reisen und Tagestouren zu kommen. Das ist einfach wundervoll! 🌼

In aufrichtiger Freude und Dankbarkeit, dass ich Teil dieser tollen Community sein darf, wünsche ich euch allen ein fantastisches Wochenende! Lasst es euch gut gehen! 😊💕

2. Wir einen schönen Tag in Homberg (Efze) bei meinen Eltern im Garten hatten, ihnen Hecken- und andere Gartenarbeiten machten. Es ist schön, die Eltern noch so alt erleben zu dürfen. Auch wenn es ihnen nach Corona nie wieder gesundheitlich wirklich gut ging. Ich hab sehr sie lieb! WIR haben sie lieb! Ach und selbstgebastelten Pflaumenkuchen gab’s auch noch mit frisch geschlagener Sahne - jammi!

Cabinet War Rooms: London, UK

During World War II, a network of basement offices in Whitehall served as the hub of Britain’s wartime operations. Known as the Cabinet War Rooms, this underground complex was used by key government officials, military leaders, and Prime Minister Winston Churchill. In the aftermath of World War I, military planners anticipated up to 200,000 casualties from bombings in the first week of a future conflict. Plans for evacuating the Prime Minister, cabinet, and essential staff from London were developed as early as the 1920s. However, concerns about Londoners feeling abandoned and the logistical challenges of evacuation led to the search for an emergency shelter in central London. In June 1938, the New Public Offices building was chosen due to its proximity to Parliament, its robust steel framework, and its expansive basement. This basement, equipped with boards that humorously indicated the weather during air raids, was reinforced with a concrete slab up to three meters thick by December 1940. Despite this, the building was vulnerable to any bomb larger than 500 pounds (227 kg). The best protection was the site’s secrecy. Adaptations were made to the basement to provide meeting spaces for the War Cabinet during air raids and to house a military information center centered around a ‘Map Room’. This room collected crucial information for King George VI, Prime Minister Churchill, and the armed forces. The Cabinet War Rooms became fully operational on August 27, 1939, just before Britain declared war on Germany. Churchill’s War Cabinet met here 115 times, particularly during the Blitz and the subsequent German V-weapon attacks. The rooms operated around the clock until August 16, 1945, when the Map Room’s lights were turned off for the first time in six years. The rooms were opened to the public by IWM in 1984 and remain open for visitors today.

F16 would be useful here now !!!

Alas, the KAB doesn't care what kind of stormtrooper you are from and whether you passed the Q course of Special Forces.

Only on Avdeevka, the enemy fired at the positions of the 110th brigade of the 20th KAB every day for several months. These days they were thrown many times more.

We were literally razed to the ground with these 500 kg bombs. And direct hits are not the whole problem, their explosion causes severe contusions and each attack is tens and hundreds of 300.
