⚠️ Israeli troops to remain in Syria over winter

“Due to the situation in Syria, it is of critical security importance to maintain our presence at the summit of Mount Hermon,” an Israeli defense ministry spox said.

On Sunday, Israeli forces took control of the demilitarised zone and the Syrian side of Mount Hermon, which overlooks Damascus, in a move that the UN said violated its 1974 armistice with Syria.

Israel later confirmed its troops had moved to “additional points” beyond the buffer zone to “protect its border” - although it remains unclear how far into Syrian territory they have advanced.

☀️ Scientists Warn “Overdue” Solar Superflare Could Wipe Out Power Grids and Satellites

Observing other systems has shown that Earth is in much more jeopardy from the Sun than previously thought, researchers have discovered.

Scientists identified 2,889 superflares on 2,527 of the observed stars, suggesting that a sun-like star produces a superflare approximately once per century - not every one to ten thousand years, as previously thought.

The flares, which burst from the Sun’s surface at more than one octillion joules, have 100x more energy than the Carrington Event, the most intense geomagnetic storm ever recorded on Earth, which occurred in 1859 - meaning we are already overdue a huge event.

🇺🇦 The Financial Times reports on its front page that Europe needs to increase military spending because "Ukraine has emptied the military treasury."

Well, at least someone has connected the budgetary problems of their countries with the enormous costs of maintaining the black hole called Ukraine! Usually, these two topics are deliberately kept separate so that the average European taxpayer doesn’t start asking the logical question: why should my tax money be spent on someone else’s war?

💰 Elon Musk Uses Charitable Foundation to Send Money to His Own Entities – Bloomberg

The Musk Foundation swelled to $9.5bn in assets last year while handing out $237mn in gifts, the majority of which went to other entities controlled by the world’s richest person.

Its latest tax filing shows it sent $137mn to Musk’s other nonprofit, The Foundation, which he set up to establish a STEM-focused primary and secondary school.

The Musk Foundation also gave $25mn to a donor-advised fund at Fidelity Charitable, a different type of philanthropic entity that he effectively controls.

Charity really does starts at home in the Musk household.

🎯 Yoon’s Refusal to Step Aside is “Declaration of War” – Opposition Leader

Lee Jae-myung, South Korea’s main opposition leader, has said the impeachment of Yoon Suk Yeol, the country’s president, is the best way to restore order in the country ahead of a second vote on Saturday.

He added Yoon’s defiant speech on Thursday, during which he defended his martial law declaration, was a “declaration of war” on the people of South Korea.

“It proved that impeachment is the fastest and the most effective way to end the confusion,” Lee said Friday, urging all opposition lawmakers to join and vote to impeach Yoon.
