Pakistan is running out of LNG to supply their IPP-owned power plants. So it's back to major blackouts across the country. The dictatorship has no money to buy LNG at spot prices because corruption. The solution is a dam, which they have no money to put power generation equipment on because corruption.
I ran a Satellite Derived Bathymetry using land sat data over the past 3 months vs 6 months and the depth on the Omani side of the strait of homruz has barely changed. Chances of a covert dredging op is very unlikely.
Oil flows through Hormuz are rising, but practically no LNG is currently getting through
And that’s why prices are need the highest level since Jan 2023
Russian attack drones are reportedly systematically attacking Ukrainian trucks carrying the summer/fall grain harvest to the port of Odesa.
Comes as key Ukrainian grain exports to the global market fell this summer on increasing Russian attacks.

The U.S. told Saudi Arabia it will support but not lead a military campaign against the Houthis in Yemen, a source in the forces opposing the Houthis who is in contact with the Americans tells Kan News.
At a mid-month meeting, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman asked CENTCOM commander Bradley Cooper for the U.S. to be the one leading the campaign. Washington's response was that it is prepared to support a Saudi military move but not to lead it --especially since the Houthis are not currently directing fire at American vessels in the Red Sea and are focusing on Saudi ships.

The Russian Ministry of Defence issued a new statement regarding the daytime attacks on Ukraine that took place over the last 12 hours, primarily using Geran-4 jet-drones.
They claim that in Kyiv, an assembly plant for the shipbuilding industry, allegedly involved in assembling and servicing drone-boats, was hit by Geran-4 jet-drones.
In Mykolaiv, the MoD claims that strikes targeted a marine transhipment terminal and four different storage facilities at Mykolaiv Port, containing military equipment. They also announced striking the "Trykhaty-330" 330 kV electrical substation in the town of Trykhaty (47.12836, 31.81051), which they say supplies power to Mykolaiv Port.
New exclusive footage obtained and verified by The New York Times gives the clearest view yet of the Aug. 26 Langtang Lirung collapse that triggered the catastrophic Nepal–Tibet floods.
Hikers heard a huge crack before ice, rock and debris plunged into the valley, throwing up an enormous dust cloud.
Another video captures debris racing downhill immediately after the collapse—the beginning of the disaster that would devastate communities downstream.
Unless I missed it, today is the first day in the last month no missiles were launched into the Strait of Hormuz?
Based on aerial activity, the US was escorting tankers today.
While everyone still focuses on the current limited Ukrainian drone strikes, today marks Day 50 of Russia’s large-scale missile and drone strike campaign against Ukrainian port infrastructure in Odesa Oblast.
Hundreds of missiles and thousands of drones have been used in these unprecedented attacks, hitting all 6 working Ukrainian ports, dozens of commercial vessels, energy infrastructure powering these ports, countless warehouses and other storage facilities, Ukrainian naval assets, and much more. Every single day for the last 50 days has witnessed attacks on port infrastructure to some extent.
This has crippled Ukrainian maritime export capabilities, with most shipping companies no longer willing to take the risk to sail to Odesa Oblast. Meanwhile, Russia’s western ports are largely functional again, as Ukraine’s “40 day operation” has long petered out.
It’s truly incredible how little coverage this Russian strike campaign has gotten, considering the massive scale of these attacks. And they show no signs of stopping yet.
❗️Russia has deployed North Korean-made Kn-23 ballistic missile launchers to Kursk Oblast in the last few days, and for the first time, used them in an attack on Dnipropetrovsk Oblast around 1.5 hours ago.
For nearly 3 years, the Kn-23 was only ever launched from near Liski, Voronezh Oblast. However, today launches were observed from a new position, approximately west of Shchigry in Kursk Oblast. This is likely because Russia now has much larger quantities of Kn-23 ballistic missiles, and doesn't want to concentrate them all in one area. This also makes it more difficult for Ukraine to predict whether an Iskander-M or a Kn-23 is launched.
3-4 missiles were used in this attack, impacting an unknown target northwest of Kamianske, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. Explosions could be heard from Kamianske, indicating the impacts were fairly close to the city, likely in the area of Shulhivka.
Eight members of an NBC News Team were attacked and beaten by Israeli settlers wielding clubs earlier today in the West Bank, while the team was covering the recent wave of attacks, riots and unrest in the territories by said settlers, which has led hundreds of Palestinians to flee from their homes in towns and villages across the West Bank.
