Israel is "accidentally" bombing hospitals in Iran just like they "accidentally" bombed hospitals in Gaza. I'm watching a video of nurses, doctors, and volunteers digging newborn babies out of the rubble and carrying them out. They already killed almost 200 very young girls in a school bombing.

Ukrainian defenders rescue dog from anti-drone net.

the State of Qatar in response to an article published by Bloomberg 3 March 2026 Contrary to reporting by Bloomberg on Monday evening, the inventory of Patriot interceptor missiles held by the Qatar Armed Forces has not been depleted and remains well-stocked. The Qatar Armed Forces have repeatedly demonstrated their capability to defend the nation against external threats and remain at full readiness to protect all citizens, residents, and visitors for as long as necessary.
