Yemen’s Ansarallah continue advance toward the last road out of southwestern Taiz overlooking the Bab-el-Mandab strait.

@bonzerbarry
Ansarallah made a lot of progress in the southwest Taiz front. Al Turbah is getting pinched from both sides (only about 18km across now). They're also only a few kilometers away from the Al-Safiya Junction to the west. AA will soon be close to reaching the last road out of Taiz at three different points.

In Russia, bears calmly roaming the streets is no longer a joke - it is the reality Siberians now face. The animals have started attacking people almost daily; more than 20 people have already died at their paws, with predators mauling seven people in the Krasnoyarsk Territory alone.

A very large number of people in the West still believe that Israeli occupation of Palestine and southern Lebanon and Syrian territory can be solved via Israeli elections, that majority of Israeli voters would choose peace. It's like expecting the war in Ukraine to end through Russian elections.

Jared Kushner is a "volunteer" "peace envoy" because he has a giant conflict of interest to hide. He is heavily financially invested in Israel's genocide. The "peace envoy" is a war profiteer. Per CNN.
 At the same time Jared Kushner has acted as a key negotiator in the war in Gaza, his private equity company, Affinity Partners, has held the largest stake in an Israeli firm backing businesses involved in Israel’s military campaigns, a CNN investigation has found.

Kushner has skirted deeper scrutiny of this potential conflict of interest by acting as a volunteer envoy, rather than accepting a government job that would require him to disclose his finances.

In the process, Kushner has carved out an unprecedented dual role under the Trump administration – one that blends lucrative business and high-stakes politics amid a devastating war.

CNN used Israeli financial transparency laws to trace some of the military-linked investments of Phoenix Financial, a Tel Aviv-based firm that Kushner’s investment group doubled its stake in last year, shortly before Donald Trump returned to the Oval Office. Kushner later described Phoenix as Affinity’s “best investment.”

Based on my own reporting on OpenAI's audited financials from 2025, it appears that Anthropic was a worse business (at least in that year), spending $2.75 make $1 versus OpenAI spending $2.60 to make $1. So many people told me this company was "more profitable"! www.wheresyoured.at/exclusive-op...
OpenAl Lost $38.5 Billion In 2025
2025 — OpenAl Had $13.07 Billion In Revenue, $34 Billion In Costs and Expenses, and $20.92 Billion In Losses, with a net loss attributable to the company of $38.53 Billion
• Revenue: $13.07 billion
• Cost of Revenue: $7.5 billion
• Research and Development: $19.18 billion
• Sales and Marketing: $5.73 billion
• General and Administrative: $1.57 Billion
• Total Costs and Expenses: $34 billion
• Loss from Operations: $20.92 billionThe Al lab spent $7.33 billion on compute and infrastructure last year, a threefold surge from 2024, accounting for more than half of its
