🇪🇺🇺🇸⚡ European companies involved in satellite technologies are expanding their efforts to challenge Elon Musk’s dominance in military communications, after restrictions imposed on Starlink disrupted the operation of Ukrainian drones.
Finnish companies ICEYE and Nokia are cooperating with Ukraine to develop an independent satellite communications system, which is expected to be launched in 2028.
The French company Eutelsat, which is already operating in Ukraine, is also positioning itself as an alternative option.

⚡️🇧🇷 Brazil Election Mayhem: Indigenous communities in Brazil voted in large numbers for Lula. Bolsonaro supporters have spent years taking revenge on them for doing this. During this most recent presidential campaign, things escalated considerably, with reports of political persecution, intimidation, armed attacks and killings across several Indigenous territories.
In the Votouro Kaingang territory, in Rio Grande do Sul, residents say a pro-Bolsonaro chief has punished PT voters for years, including by taking away their jobs in village schools and daycare facilities.
On October 13, the violence turned deadly. Álvaro Ferreira, 37, was shot and killed, allegedly by the chief, according to witnesses. Two more Indigenous men, Alexandro Brandino, 25, and Silvano Domingos Candoia, 30, were subsequently killed during an intervention by the Military Police's riot-control battalion.
At least 15 people were injured. A pregnant Indigenous woman also went into labor amid the violence but was reportedly prevented from leaving the territory to reach medical care.
Her baby died before reaching the hospital.
Police claim their officers came under fire, while residents dispute that account. Federal authorities are investigating the deaths.
In Mato Grosso do Sul, Guarani Kaiowá communities reported pickup trucks circling their territories to intimidate voters, alongside assaults and attempted killings.
Following Lula's victory, a leaked audio recording attributed to a municipal employee called for Indigenous PT voters to be killed by poisoning their drinking water.
The employee was reportedly suspended, and the threats left some communities afraid to drink water delivered by tanker trucks.
Elsewhere, a Funai office in Paraná was attacked with explosives, while journalists obtained recordings of ranchers discussing plans to invade Indigenous territory in Pará around election day. In Yanomami territory, illegal miners reportedly began attempting to reoccupy clandestine airstrips, telling residents that “Bolsonaro's son won, he's already president”, despite Lula's officially confirmed victory.

What's even more interesting, Washington proposed that the revenue from the sale of Russian gas be directed to a special account, so that Moscow could not use this money to finance the war.
Fortunately, Peskov stated today that it is impossible to implement the US proposal to restore the transit of Russian gas through Ukraine.

The commission concluded that it is not worth restoring it due to the high cost.
This is not surprising, as a similar ship, the "Admiral Nakhimov," has been undergoing repairs for 27 years, with deadlines constantly being postponed, and the cost of the work has already exceeded 200 billion rubles.

According to a United Arab Emirates diplomat, the prospect of a new phase of hostilities is forcing the region to prepare for the worst.
