▪️The negotiation process, meanwhile, has finally separated from the front-line reports. The trips of Witkoff and Kushner first to Moscow and then to Kiev did not lead to an immediate agreement, but restored the American channel between the parties. Now, Kiev is announcing preparations to resume the three-way format of Russia - USA - Ukraine as early as October. That is why the current campaign of strikes potentially has a negotiating dimension. Not because someone will immediately sign an agreement after the destruction of another factory. But because the negotiating position of a state is determined not only by the line on the map, but also by the answer to the question: how much more can it endure in this mode and at what cost?
▪️ Europe understands this perfectly and is accelerating preparations. Germany, after the August incident with drones at the Leipzig/Halle airport, announced preparations for a broad "anti-sabotage shield." It is planned to create rapidly deployable police units to combat drones, expand the powers of critical infrastructure facilities to counter UAVs, and create a national "cyber dome."
Officially, all of this is called protection against sabotage and hybrid threats. Russia denies any involvement in the German incidents. However, this does not change the practical result: Germany is building an internal security system designed to operate in conditions of military confrontation. This is even more evident with Volkswagen. The VW plant in Osnabrück will be the first major German car factory to be transferred to a defense configuration. The first project will be the production of air defense systems and components in cooperation with the Israeli company Rafael. The conversion of cars for military purposes is also being considered.
At the same time, Germany has announced the urgent transfer of additional Patriot missiles from its own stockpiles to Ukraine, and Kiev has reported the formation of a long-term order for approximately 1,000 Patriot missiles with the support of its allies. Most of these missiles will not be produced tomorrow, but the very scale of the order indicates the European planning horizon for the war.

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦📉60 percent: the number that worries Kyiv
Ukrainian air defence intercepts 90 to 95 percent of most incoming aerial threats. Against Russia's new jet-powered Gerans, that figure drops to roughly 60 percent, according to the Financial Times.
The gap is a design problem, not a training one. Ukrainian officials and manufacturers expected Moscow to bet on the slower Geran-3, cruising at around 300 km/h. Instead it went straight to the faster, longer-ranged Geran-4 and Geran-5. "It was difficult to predict how these plans would develop," a representative of Wild Hornets, maker of the Sting interceptor, told the paper.
Wild Hornets is now finishing an interceptor built specifically for jet-powered munitions, with serial production expected soon. Volodymyr Zelenskyy says 67 Ukrainian companies are working on ways to bring down the new Gerans.
Sixty-seven companies chasing one aircraft type is a measure of urgency, and of how little margin Ukraine has left in the sky.

🇮🇷🛸 🇷🇺 IRAN ASKS RUSSIA FOR ITS ADVANCED GERAN DRONES, TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER COMES FULL CIRCLE
Iran has asked Moscow to supply its newest Russian-developed Geran attack drones for use against Israel and the United States, according to the Financial Times, citing Western security officials and a person close to the Kremlin. It remains unclear whether Russia has agreed to the latest request.
Iran originally supplied Russia with the Shahed technology. Russia then spent four years combat-testing, modifying and mass-producing the platform in Ukraine and Tehran now reportedly wants Russia’s evolved versions back.
The latest jet-powered Geran variants are faster, carry larger warheads and incorporate improved targeting, communications and resistance to electronic warfare. Russia’s adaptation of the Iranian design has become so extensive that CSIS recently concluded that Russia has effectively mastered the platform through continuous battlefield-driven development.

🇷🇺🇮🇷 How Russia's new drones are (massively) changing the air war (Financial Times) with Iran asking Russia for its state of the art Geran Drones.
“Russia’s drone capabilities have improved so much that Tehran asked Moscow this year for advanced Geran drones for use in its war with Israel and the US, according to western security officials and a person close to the Kremlin.”
Iran may have supplied the original Shahed concept, but 4 years of relentless combat use in Ukraine transformed it into something far more sophisticated.
Through constant battlefield testing, modification and mass production, Russia has evolved the platform well beyond its initial design. Reports now suggest Tehran is interested in acquiring Russia’s latest iterations of the drone.
The newest jet powered Geran variants are faster, carry heavier warheads, and feature upgraded targeting systems, communications suites and enhanced resistance to electronic warfare.
The evolution has been so extensive that analysts at CSIS recently assessed that Russia has effectively mastered the platform, turning an imported design into a combat proven system refined through continuous real world operational experience.

🇮🇷🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia has days of export oil left if the East-West pipeline to the Red Sea stays down.
4 million barrels a day or 4% of global supply. Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb already sealed. Now the backup route is out after Friday’s drone strikes. Yanbu storage lasts 5–7 days. The war is going so well!

a new threat to the West?
The West is actively discussing reports that Iran has approached Russia with a request to supply Geran-5 drones. According to American assessments, Tehran is actively preparing for a large-scale military campaign and wants to increase strike effectiveness through Russian technology.
🔻 What regional targets could come under fire?▪️ Potential strike zones divide into three rings. First — up to 650 km: U.S. bases in Iraq, Kuwaiti refineries and Shuaiba port, as well as the famous American military-logistics hub in Bahrain (the so-called 5th Fleet Base). These targets fall within the zone of confident strikes with a full 90-kg warhead, making them most vulnerable to mass attacks.▪️ Second — up to 950 km: Al-Udeid bases in Qatar, Prince Sultan in Saudi Arabia, Muwaffaq as-Salti in Jordan, as well as eastern Saudi Aramco refineries in Al-Jubail and Ras Tanura. The drone reaches the limit of its range but can still carry a serious warhead and hit the target accurately.▪️ Third — over 950 km: Israeli airbases like Ramat David, Nevatim, Tel Nof, Ramon, as well as the British base Akrotiri on Cyprus. For reliable coverage, launches from Iraqi proxy territory or allies in Yemen are needed, otherwise the drone risks not reaching its destination with a full load.

Pepe Escobar: The Global South Is Building a World Beyond US Control
Yemen’s advance and the shutdown of Saudi Arabia’s East–West pipeline have raised the stakes around the Red Sea and Hormuz.
Meanwhile, BRICS has issued its strongest condemnation yet of secondary sanctions and is expanding trade in national currencies.
Russia and Iran are coordinating more closely, BRICS Pay is moving forward, and China is pressing for deeper financial, industrial and digital ties across the bloc.
Each new route and payment mechanism leaves the Global South less exposed to US sanctions and financial pressure.
