A Royal Air Force KC2 Voyager refueling tanker conducted a training flight in support of RAF Eurofighter Typhoon fighter jets near Qatar.
A few days ago, the same aircraft, having taken off from RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus, reportedly dragged an unknown number of fighter jets to Qatar to defend the country in the event of Iranian attacks, much as was done during Operation Epic Fury.
The hybrid war in Europe continues to escalate, today, there were over 7.000 new bomb threats targeting schools in Italy, Ireland, and the United Kingdom.
In Italy alone, more than 6.000 schools, approximately 85% of all state-run schools, received the email signed by "Mikhail Andropov."
Of these, 312 were evacuated, with the Carabinieri and bomb squads arriving on-site to conduct the necessary checks, however, no actual bombs were found at any of the schools.
The situation is deteriorating rapidly, to the point where these incidents are becoming a weekly occurrence, not just in Italy, but across all of Europe.
It has not yet been confirmed whether a single actor is behind the wave of hybrid attacks experienced by European countries over the last month, but Russia remains the primary suspect.
In Italy, hundreds of schools have received bomb threats including in the capital Rome and major cities Milan, Naples, Bologna among others. Evacuations and sweeps by bomb squads and carabinieri (national gendarmerie) are underway, La Repubblica reports. Preliminary information suggests that the threats were received by email, similar to the threats against airports and airlines across Europe last week.

Trump wants to do nothing, but that may not be the case at all. It’s the worst of both worlds for global energy markets.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has relocated from his home to a military base following Iranian threats against his life, the NYT reports.
According to U.S. intelligence reports, Iran has reached a more advanced stage in its plans to strike American officials, with threats against Bessent contributing to those concerns.
So far, this is the first high-ranking official to be subjected to heightened security measures, likely in light of the intensifying campaign of economic pressure against Iran.
Lithuanian authorities confirm that four drones have been spotted in southern Latvia, and one has been observed within Lithuanian territory, all of them originated from Belarus.
Heavy NATO fighter jet activity is being reported near the Suwalki Gap, where a drone has also flew into Polish airspace.
The head of the NKVC, Vilmantas Vitkauskas, stated that the drone that had entered Lithuanian airspace has since left Lithuanian territory and moved into Polish airspace.
He added that monitoring is ongoing, and it appears that other drones are approaching Lithuania from Belarus.

This event is highly unusual, it is very unlikely that these are Ukrainian drones jammed by Russia, given that the air alert was issued for provinces in southern Lithuania.
Typically, when Russia diverts Ukrainian drones, originally headed toward the Leningrad region, toward the Baltic states, drone alerts are issued in Estonia or Latvia.
In this instance, however, according to Lithuanian authorities, the drone originated from Belarus, and it is almost certainly not a Ukrainian drone.
The Lithuanian Ministry of Defence has issued a RED drone alert for the Druskininkai and Lazdijai districts, southern Lithuania.
Over the past hour, according to Lithuania and Latvia, several unidentified objects have violated their airspace.
NATO air policing mission fighter jets have been scrambled to identify and intercept the aerial objects coming from Belarus.

I don't know who is on your team, but it seems you lack experience, since I was the first account to unveil this news, I take full responsibility for it, and I will explain why what you are saying makes no sense.
First of all, as you can see in the post I've attached, a burn mark is clearly visible on Sentinel-2 satellite imagery.
Secondly, it didn't appear on NASA Firms because a fire of this scale is too small to be detected by that satellite.
Furthermore, the video I shared, which I was the first to post, serves as irrefutable proof of the attack that took place on the island.
