This highlights the urgent need for stronger Turkish defence export controls. Without oversight, Turkish systems and personnel could end up on opposing sides of the same conflict.

Turkish-made drones reportedly operated by UAE-backed forces entered Sudan via Ethiopia and attacked the Turkish-backed Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF). Ankara has supplied military systems to the SAF, some likely supported by Turkish technical teams.

Etiyopya hava sahasını kullanarak Sudan hava sahasına girip Türkiye'nin desteklediği Sudan ordusunu bombalayan sistem BAE'ye ait Akıncı TİHA'ymış, videodaki Akıncı Etiyopya'ya değilmiş.

Sudan kaynaklarına göre BAE'ye ait TİHA, EREN ile vurulmuş.

The Gulf states have increasingly avoided relying on Washington’s deterrence alone. Instead, they developed a strategy built on three interlocking elements: cultivating deeper security guarantees from the United States; pursuing de-escalation with Iran; and, for some states, engaging Israel.

The footage shows an attack by ISIS militants targeting Turkish drones in Niger. Turkish drones and companies are increasingly involved in counter-ISIS operations in Africa, often in coordination with Russia.

@YusufErim34 Why would Erdogan engage with the new mayor? How would he feel if Trump meets/engage with Imamoglu? State:state relations are conducted via govt. Officials. Engaging with the previous mayor was not helpful either.

The London promise: if you work hard, and get a helping hand, you can achieve anything.

Immensely proud to receive a knighthood from His Majesty The King. Growing up on a council estate in Tooting, I never imagined I'd one day receive this great honour while serving as Mayor.

Çok hoş bir düzeltme. Fakat dün bio'da Oxford yazarken bugün yok. Ya dün yanlış beyan vardı ya da bugün var. İşte kurumsal kültür nefret suçuna izin vermiyor. Kimseyi öldürmeden de düşüncenin ifade edildiğini öğrenmiş olmanız çok güzel.

Ah be Adnan Hocam daha konuşacak onca şey varken bu kadar erken bırakıp gidilir mi?

Tüm desteğin, varlığın için çok teşekkürler. İyi ki hayatıma dokundun değer kattın, anlam kattın.

Yattığın yer incinmesin.

ODTÜ Sosyoloji’nin
Öğretenlerinden; Değerli dostumuz, arkadaşımız, yoldaşımız Adnan Akçay’ı kaybettik. Çok üzgünüm.
Hayata dair birkaç sözü bile ne kadar büyük bir insan olduğunu göstermek için yeterli:

”Özgürlüğe ancak akıl yoluyla ulaşabileceğimizi söyleyen Marx haklıdır fakat özgürlüğe ancak akla rağmen ulaşabileceğimizi söyleyen Schopenhauer daha çok haklıdır!”

“Akla zaten mecburuz, mahkum olmayalım yeter!”

“Aynı şekilde, varolmanın dayanılmaz hafifliği de fiyakalı ama yanlış bi laftır. Var olmak ağırdır, bu nedenle ya geçmişe (nostalji) ya da geleceğe (ütopya) sığınırız.”

“Çocukken jandarma lafını duysa jandarcam işte diyen bir kuşağın üyesi olarak günümüzdeki itaat isterisini anlamam mümkün değil!”

“Eskiden ‘kurtulmak yok tek başına...’ diye bi slogan vardı. Corona gösterdi ki asıl yaşamak yok tek başına, ya hep beraber ya hiç birimiz!”

“Halkımızın hafızasına güvenim tam, yasaklar kalktıktan en çok 10 dk sonra her şey aynı eskisi gibi olacak!”

“Dünya tersine döndü: iktidarlar değil insanlar daha çok yasak, kapatma, gözetim, denetim ve dahi ceza diye yırtınıyor!”

“Herkes finans çalıştı, soru tabiattan geldi...”

“İnsanları oldukları gibi kabul etmek bir erdem değil, olsa olsa ağır bir sahtekârlıktır. Kimseyi olduğu gibi kabul etmeyin -kendiniz dahil!”

Bu sözleri söyleyen insan ölür mü? Yazdıklarının belki de milyonda biriydi yukarıdakiler…
Yaşadıkça bu sözleri daha çok duyacağız…

Residential Estate Management companies have been creaming profits from residents up and down the country and providing a poor service.

My constituents in #Barking have faced their own struggles with management company RMG. I’ll continue to hold these companies to account to get a fair deal for people in Barking.

This @UKLabour government is focused on improving life chances and making people better off by expanding access to good jobs and skills.

I asked the Chancellor, @RachelReevesMP, about job creation, training and opportunities for people in #Barking.
