Starlink ha ricominciato a funzionare per i militari russi.
Questo è confermato da vari canali Ucraini e da feed di gente al fronte.
L' uso di Starlink deve essere tassativamente proibito in Europa per motivi di sicurezza nazionale.

La white-list di terminali in uso solo agli ucraini è ignorata. Non credete alle puttanate che le guardie rosse di Starlink blaterano qui in Italia.

L'OPA ostile da parte di Leonardo Maria Del Vecchio a SEIF, come giustamente fa notare @Phastidio, non ha grosse possibilità di successo: il nucleo dei soci fondatori possiede, insieme, la maggioranza assoluta. Inoltre, lo statuto vieta di possedere più del 17% a ogni singolo socio: questo assetto è progettato precisamente per evitare che qualcuno possa prendere il controllo della testata.
Però.
Però un'OPA ostile può avere delle conseguenze che vanno al di là del controllo sulla carta dell'azienda.
La prospettiva di un premio fuori mercato di LMDV ai soci potrebbe farne vacillare qualcuno, incrinando e indebolendo i patti parasociali che assicurano il controllo dell'azienda: non tutti sono giornalisti e qualcuno un pensiero potrebbe farcelo. Insinuare il dubbio tra i soci è già di per sé una polpetta avvelenata. Il gruppo di amici che controlla il giornale sarà costretto a testare quanto solida l'amicizia sia.
La due diligence può evidenziare una situazione più problematica di quella conosciuta, nel qual caso il valore delle azioni potrebbe crollare, mettendo a rischio la continuità aziendale da un lato e riducendo l'investimento che Del Vecchio dovrebbe fare. Ma pure se non succedesse è un'attività che costa tempo e risorse all'azienda, che già deve fare attenzione alle spese. Una pressione che potrebbe diventare problematica.
Se pure l'OPA dovesse fallire, come ampiamente probabile, ma LMDV decidesse di acquistare dal flottante (che è oltre il 40%) una quota rilevante, fino al 17% consentito, potrà richiedere la convocazione di assemblee, impugnare i bilanci, contestare le spese di rappresentanza, i compensi del CdA e persino le scelte editoriali se mascherate da "danni patrimoniali". Magari qualche suo amico ha nel frattempo acquistato quote, chi lo sa.
Imporre condizioni per aumenti di capitale.
Immaginate la scena: il valore dell'azienda è sceso a tal punto da mettere a rischio la continuità aziendale, perché i conti sono peggiorati e a giornalisti e dipendenti erano state date rassicurazioni non più credibili.
C'è un investitore, ostile certo, che fa una proposta:
"Il giornale lo salviamo, io non posso averne il controllo per via delle clausole statutarie quindi ho un potere solo relativo, potete stare tranquilli, no?
Ma qualcosa nella gestione dell'azienda e nella linea editoriale deve cambiare altrimenti non è sostenibile".
Quanto è solida la lealtà della redazione e delle maestranze davanti alla prospettiva di chiudere?
Secondo le stime, il patrimonio di Leonardo Maria Del Vecchio si aggira intorno ai 7 miliardi di euro. Il valore che ha proposto per l'OPA è di 7.25 milioni. È come se qualcuno con 5000€ sul conto corrente volesse comprare qualcosa che ne costa 5.
Mi pare una situazione in cui potrebbe applicarsi agevolmente il proverbiale articolo quinto.

Three waves of ballistic missiles have been launched at Kyiv by Russian “humanitarians” since yesterday evening. They used 21 missiles. Unfortunately, numerous sites across the city have been hit and damaged: ordinary residential buildings, energy facilities, infrastructure at one of the railway stations and the metro, shopping malls, and businesses. Even a monastery is among the damaged sites. Our emergency services are working at all the affected locations. Twelve of our regions came under Russian attack overnight. In Kyiv and across the regions, 34 people were injured, including five children. As of now, two people have been confirmed killed. My condolences to their families and loved ones.

Almost immediately after another round of talks, Russia launched a pointed attack. This means there has been no real change in its attitude toward everything that is happening. It is important to keep trying to find the right solutions to end this war. But when Russia responds to negotiations with ballistic missiles, real pressure on Russia is needed to bring about different steps – steps toward ending the killing. Stronger air defenses and the rapid delivery of missiles, the ability to destroy ballistic missile launchers, sanctions over the war – all of this must be in place. I am grateful to everyone who sees the situation for what it is and acknowledges the reality. The aggressor deserves to be treated accordingly. Ukraine deserves support. People's lives deserve protection. Thank you to everyone who stands with Ukraine!

Just so I understand correctly. The FIA this year:

Reduced Ferrari’s solution on the starts to zero, meaning Ferrari lost all of its advantage and was even put at a disadvantage because of the small turbo.

The FIA decided to ban Ferrari’s FTM innovation for next season. In China, they banned the Ferrari solution with the winglets on the halo.

The FIA made a small modification to Ferrari’s innovation regarding the macarena for next year. And the FIA even wanted to ban the innovation for 2027

Before the start of the season, Ferrari asked the FIA for permission to use a highly innovative diffuser concept, and the FIA said it was not allowed. Yet in Canada, we saw that Mercedes had received permission from the FIA to use the exact same concept and kept it until Barcelona.

Obviously, there’s no need to add the whole story about the double yellow in Austria during Q3, or the yellow flag shown only for the two Ferraris in Q3 at Spa. Or the CR on the Mercedes engines & the ADUO for them.

Today, we learned that the FIA has decided to ban Ferrari’s innovation regarding the wheel rims.

All of this honestly makes me laugh. Whenever Ferrari innovates, I get the impression that it somehow bothers the FIA. Nothing surprising, and you’ll see in the future that the FIA will do everything it can to ban Ferrari’s innovations.

🚨🚨🚨🇻🇦🇺🇦 Telefonata Papa Leone-Volodymyr Zelensky.

Sala stampa Santa Sede: "Nella giornata odierna, il Santo Padre Leone XIV ha avuto un colloquio telefonico con S.E. il Signor Volodymyr Zelensky, Presidente dell’Ucraina.

Nel corso della conversazione, il Santo Padre ha richiamato la grave situazione nella città di Oleshky, nella regione di Kherson, facendo riferimento alla richiesta di una tregua umanitaria già presentata al Presidente della Federazione Russa.

Il Santo Padre ha auspicato che la collaborazione di entrambe le parti possa consentire l’arrivo di aiuti alimentari e sanitari e l’evacuazione volontaria e sicura della popolazione civile.

Il Santo Padre ha infine ribadito l’impegno della Santa Sede a favore del dialogo e della pace".

Since the American President announced the energy ceasefire a week ago, Russia has deliberately attacked Ukraine’s energy and oil and gas sectors 76 times. Last night alone, there were strikes on substations in the Vinnytsia, Zhytomyr, Khmelnytskyi, and Odesa regions. Tens of thousands of families remain without power. Energy workers and repair crews are working virtually around the clock to restore electricity supply. Overnight, the Russians also struck residential buildings in our regions. As of now, 12 people have been reported injured, including two children. Two people have been killed. My condolences to their families and loved ones. This morning, there was a strike on an agricultural enterprise in Volyn. All necessary services are working at the site.

In total, over this past week, the Russians have attacked Ukraine with almost 2,700 attack drones, 1,700 aerial bombs, and 66 missiles, most of them ballistic. The main targets of these strikes are energy facilities – the Russians are trying to cause a blackout. And America should see that Russia is not taking any reciprocal steps in response to sanctions relief or agreements. On the contrary, they take every signal of an opportunity to make money as proof that their bet on war is paying off and they can keep fighting. It is because of this position of Russia’s that the war continues, not because Ukraine is rightfully defending itself. It is Russia that must face pressure for peace to have a chance. Thank you to everyone who understands this and helps.

Yesterday, the Russians carried out one of their largest attacks on Ukraine’s energy sector – more than 15 critical power generation and transmission facilities were targeted across different regions of Ukraine. Restoration work is ongoing, with all necessary services and all available resources of Ukrainian energy companies involved. I thank everyone working practically nonstop to restore power.

The most difficult situation was in Lutsk, Rivne, Zhytomyr, Vinnytsia, Shepetivka, Slavuta, and Netishyn. Energy facilities in the Kharkiv, Kyiv, Dnipro, and other regions were also hit. The Russians have scaled up their anti-energy operation and are trying to stretch our reserves and repair capabilities as thin as possible. Between 7 p.m. yesterday and 7 a.m. today alone, more than 320 jet-powered and gasoline-powered “shaheds,” along with loitering munitions, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles, were used against our energy sector, our cities, and our communities. And although our warriors are shooting down a significant number of them, the sheer scale and unrelenting pace of Russia’s strikes, specifically against our energy sector, are unfortunately having severe consequences.

It is important that our European partners have already prepared new support packages for Ukraine. I am grateful to them for this. And it is important that everyone in America also sees what is really happening. At a time when the Russians have carried out such a massive attack on our energy sector, a decision was unfortunately made in America to completely disregard the Lindsey Graham Act, which was supposed to impose truly effective pressure on Russia to bring this war to an end. This Act could have helped enormously – and still can! But it needs to actually work, and every voice in support of it matters.

Russia is trying to cause a blackout in Ukraine – right before winter. Russia is trying to leave millions of our people without electricity and heating. Pressure is needed to stop this. A U.S. sanctions blackout, easing pressure on the aggressor, financial rewards for Putin – all of this only encourages him to keep attacking. We must not give up ground. We must keep trying to end the war. To end it, not give Putin every reason to continue it indefinitely. I thank everyone who is truly fighting for peace and helping Ukraine!

Elon Musk has finally met the requirements and provided the list of shareholders of "X Holding Corp" who helped the billionaire buy Twitter. And who do you think turned out to be investors in the X platform, besides Islamists and the Trump lobby? That's right, Petr Aven and Vadim Moshkovich. Now it's absolutely obvious where Musk's love for Russia comes from and where the "filters" for anti-Russian publications grow from. Let me remind you who Aven and Moshkovich are.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Emergency services are still providing assistance in dozens of our cities and communities. Repair crews and rescuers are working to deal with the aftermath of Russian attacks. For practically all of yesterday and throughout last night, a massive “shahed” attack was underway. The drones kept coming in waves, and there was not a single hour when our skies were clear of them. From midnight yesterday through 9 a.m. today, there had already been more than 850 “shaheds” – and this comes precisely at a time when the speed of our defensive capabilities is being artificially restricted. We managed to shoot down some of the “shaheds.” But unfortunately, there were also dozens of hits. One of the largest attacks was carried out against our Kirovohrad region. There were also strikes in Kyiv and the surrounding region, the Dnipro, Odesa, Rivne, Kharkiv, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, Mykolaiv, Vinnytsia, Zhytomyr, Khmelnytskyi, Poltava, and Ivano-Frankivsk regions. Three people were killed in Kropyvnytskyi and three more in the Dnipro region. My condolences to their families and loved ones.

It is obvious that Russia deliberately chose to escalate its attacks after receiving sanctions relief and seeing attempts to pressure Ukraine. Russia exploits every such opportunity and must be held accountable for what it does. Strong decisions are needed to end this war. Ukraine needs steady support, above all in defending our skies. We need HONESTY from our partners about this war: It is important that everyone in America stand not with the aggressor, but with our efforts to protect lives, end this war, and guarantee security.

Major new development with Trump/Musk apparently restricting use of Starlink above Ukraine.

[Serhii Sternenko @sternenko]

❗️Last ​​night, the operation of Starlink terminals in Ukraine was restricted.
Connectivity began to drop when moving at speeds exceeding 160 km/h. As a result, a number of critical missions were disrupted.

SpaceX likely took these measures at the request of the Trump administration. Also last night, when Kyiv was attacked by ballistic missiles, Ukraine did not receive intelligence regarding their launch— a failure that could have led to higher casualties.

Ukraine did not attack Russian oil refineries, yet Trump has already begun imposing sanctions on my country. Meanwhile, sanctions against Russia have been eased.

[Daniele Angrisani @putino]

Questa notte apparentemente sono state introdotte delle restrizioni all’uso di Starlink da parte degli operatori ucraini, su richiesta della Casa Bianca. Questo dopo che da due giorni l’Ucraina si sta astenendo dall’attaccare le raffinerie russe.

La nota dei commissari straordinari Ilva con cui giustificano lo spegnimento, fa emergere bene il vero motivo del fallimento definitivo. Anche qualora la cassazione dovesse annullare ordinanza di sospensione impianti, il siderurgico ribarrebbe spento, dato che non ci sono più materie prime disponibili in magazzino. i commissari hanno sospeso ultimo ordine a luglio, perché non potevano a qui stare materie prime che non sarebbero potute essere utilizzate. Il siderurgico più grande d'Europa, mantenuto con un magazzino in cui tenevano solo ciò che serviva giorno per giorno. E questo non ha niente a che fare con la magistratura. Ma col fatto che i commissari straordinari scelti da Urso in tre anni sono arrivati a prosciugare tutto il prosciugabile senza riuscire a fare utili, mandando l'azienda sul lastrico, quando erano stati chiamati per salvarla.
