BREAKING: 2 Russian Gerbera drones were found drifting near Romania’s Neptun Deep gas project in the Black Sea and were destroyed in a controlled detonation by Romanian EOD divers.
The drones were discovered around 167 km offshore from Constanța, inside Romania’s Exclusive Economic Zone, after being spotted by a vessel working in the Neptun Deep area.
Romanian military personnel identified two UAVs in the water, along with additional debris.
For safety reasons, Romanian authorities decided to destroy the drones in a controlled explosion, given their location near an active maritime area and ongoing work around the gas project.

DELTA FLIGHT 591 CARRYING PASSENGERS FROM DEF CON 34 IN LAS VEGAS HIT BY SUSPECTED WI-FI ATTACK MID AIR.
Delta Flight 591 from Las Vegas to Atlanta reportedly encountered a suspected Wi-Fi attack involving passengers returning from DEF CON 34, which concluded in Las Vegas on August 9.
According to an ACARS message sent by the crew, passengers were able to jam the aircraft’s Wi-Fi and broadcast a rogue network called “Delta WiFi Fast.”
“WE HAVE A BUNCH OF PAX THAT WERE AT A CYBER CONFERENCE IN LAS… THEY WERE ABLE TO JAM OUR WIFI AND BROADCAST THEIR SIGNAL.”
A second message alerted corporate security:
“WE HAVE A PAX ON THIS HAS CREATED A SCAM WIFI CALLED DELTA WIFI FAST. WE BELIEVE THEY ARE TRYING TO SCAM THE OTHER PAX.”
The technique involves a malicious device impersonating a legitimate Wi-Fi network and attempting to trick users into connecting to it.
Once connected, victims can potentially be directed to fraudulent login pages designed to capture credentials or other sensitive information.
After the aircraft arrived at ATL and parked at Gate A18, authorities reportedly boarded the aircraft and questioned passengers while investigating the suspected rogue network and the equipment used to broadcast it.
Some of the passengers had just returned from DEF CON, one of the world’s largest cybersecurity conferences.
The investigation will determine exactly what happened.
🇺🇸 TRUMP: U.S. HAS CLEARED MINES FROM STRAIT OF HORMUZ
President Donald Trump says the United States has cleared all mines from the Strait of Hormuz.
“The strait is open now. The only one in control there is the U.S. Navy.”
TRUMP SECRETLY MOVED FROM AIR FORCE ONE TO A C-32A IN TURKEY AMID LIFE THREAT
A remarkable security operation has been revealed after newly released footage showed how President Donald Trump was secretly transferred from the legacy Air Force One to a U.S. Air Force C-32A at Ankara Esenboğa Airport, Turkey.
According to a Washington Post investigation, a credible threat involving Trump or his aircraft prompted a highly unusual deception operation during his departure from Turkey on July 8.
🎥 Video released by the Washington Post shows an airport catering truck being positioned alongside the presidential 747. The vehicle's elevated catering container was raised to aircraft-door level, allowing Trump and aides to leave the 747 without being seen by the press.
The truck then drove to a nearby:
✈️ U.S. Air Force C-32A
🛩️ Aircraft type: Modified Boeing 757
📡 Reported callsign: RCH18 / Reach 18
The C-32A was not an ordinary passenger aircraft. It is a specially configured U.S. government transport used for senior officials and can transport the president or vice president.
🎭 AIR FORCE ONE BECAME THE DECOY
The legacy Boeing 747 continued its scheduled-looking departure with journalists and some White House personnel aboard, creating the impression that Trump was still on the aircraft.
The C-32A's presidential identity was further concealed through the use of “Reach 18”, rather than the Air Force One call sign.
The operation effectively created two separate narratives:
🔵 Publicly: Trump departed aboard the familiar blue-and-white Air Force One.
🟢 Actually: Trump had been transferred covertly to the smaller C-32A.
🇬🇧 ANOTHER AIRCRAFT SWITCH
The deception continued after the aircraft reached Britain.
The C-32A arrived at RAF Mildenhall before the legacy Air Force One. Trump later appeared publicly descending from the legacy 747, maintaining the appearance that he had traveled aboard that aircraft.
He then transferred to the newer Bridge Boeing 747-8 (Ex-Qatar) for the onward journey to Washington. The Post says the exact manner in which Trump moved from the C-32A back to the legacy 747 has not been established publicly.
🔐 WHY THE OPERATION IS SIGNIFICANT
This was not simply an aircraft change.
It was a deliberate movement-security and deception operation designed to make it difficult for potential adversaries to determine:
📍 Trump's actual location
✈️ Which aircraft he was aboard
📡 Which flight was carrying the president
🕐 His precise departure and arrival sequence
The most remarkable part? The catering truck wasn't just moving meals — according to the reporting and released imagery, it became part of a presidential security deception operation.
⚠️ Authenticity: The catering-truck footage and the C-32A transfer are supported by the Washington Post's investigation and visual analysis.
