Newly declassified footage shows the rescue of two U.S. Air Force officers after their F-15E multirole fighter was shot down over Iran in April.

The two pilots ejected and landed roughly five miles apart in mountainous terrain south of Isfahan as Iranian forces searched for them.

Alpha was recovered eight hours after ejecting in a risky daytime recovery mission involving 21 U.S. aircraft.

Bravo remained behind Iranian lines for roughly two days. He suffered a broken back and other injuries after his damaged parachute caused a hard landing, but still managed to climb a 7,000-foot mountain ridge before two Air Force pararescuemen reached him and brought him to a U.S. Air Force HH-60W Jolly Green II helicopter.

Oil prices have surged toward $110 per barrel.

Iran struck a UAE-owned oil tanker with anti-ship missiles in the US-backed southern Omani corridor of the Strait of Hormuz while the vessel was traveling under a US escort. The ship is drifting and leaking, IRIB reports.

The Russians are preparing a new wave of strikes; the attack may last all day

Oil stocks at the Saudi Red Sea port of Yanbu are sufficient to sustain exports for a week if the pipeline attacked on Friday remains shut

- Reuters reported.

Beyond that, up to 4% of global supplies could be at risk—in addition to the millions of barrels per day already failing to reach the market due to disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz.

🇺🇦 Ukraine's Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko (who announced his resignation on September 7 amid corruption accusations, though he formally remains in office until the Verkhovna Rada decides) has charged the director of Ukraine's National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU), Semen Kryvonos.

The charges concern the falsification of official documents to obtain an illegal benefit of a particularly large amount.

It was NABU – an agency independent of both the prosecutor general and Zelensky's office – that previously published recordings of Operation "Carthage." These recordings indicated the involvement of senior officials from the prosecutor general's office in organizing protection for fraudulent call centers.

Another independent body is the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAP). Kravchenko stated that an indictment had been prepared against "a person close to SAP head Oleksandr Klymenko." This person is suspected of exerting influence on judges of the High Anti-Corruption Court, of bribery, and of assisting in draft evasion.

According to Kravchenko, Operation "Carthage" was carried out to gain access to case materials concerning the leadership and staff of NABU and SAP. He claims that during the searches, some confidential materials were copied and stolen.

In response to the prosecutor general's actions, Zelensky called on parliamentarians to immediately dismiss him from his post. According to reports, Kravchenko has left Ukraine.

Kravchenko confirmed his departure from the country:
"I am currently abroad on an official trip. I intend to inform our partners about the real state of affairs in the system of anti-corruption bodies."

He left Ukraine through the Shehyni border crossing in the Lvov region.

In exchange for permission to leave the country, Kravchenko signed a notice of suspicion against the NABU director.

Such a departure was possible only with Zelensky's consent and permission.

As for these accusations, remember not to treat them as a fight against a wonderful NABU that combats corruption among Zelensky's people.

All of this may be, and probably is, true.

I would be very surprised if it turned out that NABU officials are not just as corrupt as everyone else.

An unprecedented infestation of mice and rats in Israeli settlements near Gaza has left at least 10 settlers bitten and caused major agricultural losses.

Experts believe the rodents may have come from Gaza due to the destruction and military activity.
