I’m mapping how Serbia’s election results could hit Israel’s arms deals, drone production, and its little strategic foothold in Europe.
And boy, there’s a LOT to unpack. 👀
🇷🇸 Serbia has been supplying Israel with ammunition. That relationship could get a lot more uncomfortable if the political winds shift.
🚁 The Elbit connection. Serbia teamed up with Israel’s Elbit Systems on drone production. A change in political direction could put that partnership under pressure.
💰 Billions on the table. Serbia has signed major defence deals with Elbit. Any serious rethink of those ties could have consequences for Israel’s defence industry.
🇪🇺 Israel’s backdoor into Europe. Serbia is an important partner outside the EU. If Belgrade’s priorities change, Israel could lose some of that strategic leverage.
🔥 And then there’s the politics. Serbia’s student led movement has challenged the political establishment. Whether that translates into a tougher line on Israel remains to be seen, but it’s definitely worth watching.
This doesn’t mean Serbia is about to dump Israel overnight. But these relationships aren’t untouchable, either.
And that’s why I’m watching Serbia. The ripple effects could be HUGE. 👀
Security camera captures Israeli forces entering a civilian home in Zowtar Al Sharqia and subsequent destruction of the home.
More than 60 towns and villages in Lebanon are currently occupied by Israeli forces and 48 towns have been systematically demolished. Civilian homes and infrastructure such as schools, water sources and medical facilities are being razed to the ground on a daily basis.
O que está acontecendo hoje na Bahia nunca foi visto antes em nenhuma eleição.
Retiraram os ônibus, cortaram a energia de toda Salvador, pessoas do interior sendo coagidas e impedidas de irem votar.
É um dos maiores escândalos eleitorais dos últimos anos.
“I’ve never seen anything like this in an extradition case,” Fergie's attorney said. “Spanish judicial authorities can’t surrender control over the personal effects of a person sought in extradition just because a foreign government has asked for them… and now a judge has secretly turned over Fergie’s phone to the US.”
Prestem atenção no que está havendo em todo o país:
- mudaram locais de votação
- negaram transporte aos indígenas
- diminuíram a frota de ônibus
- cancelaram vôos para o nordeste
Os bolsonaristas estão conspirando para impedir a população mais pobre de votar. São ditadores!
"So sensitive are the political machinations that BHP [had] court proceedings suppressed ... meetings between Simon Turner and politicians"

En un mes Lula prohibió las apuestas, redujo la jornada laboral sin pérdida de salario, fue a la ONU a defender a Palestina y a Cuba, le dijo a Trump que Brasil no entraba en el patio de EEUU, se sacó foto con Zohran Mamdani y le ganó a Meta las redes y a Bolsonaro la elección.
Shabana Mahmood disgracefully equates neo-Nazi skinheads with pensioners protesting against Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
She claims to be part of the pro-Palestinian movement. She is nothing of the sort. She is complicit in the genocide of the Palestinian people.
Shame on her. Hope the ministerial car was worth it.
Peter Oborne on the West Bank: "It is a horrific, racist project to drive out Palestinians... 65 of [the Bedouins'] communities have been destroyed in the last three years... The fact that we, the democratic, human rights-respecting West, is tolerating this horror is extraordinary."
Don't be gaslit on the Serbian elections.
Student List has won on an anti-corruption and free speech platform.
It is definitely not pro-NATO or anti-Russian.
It is mildly pro-EU, but so was the previous largest party.
The main explicitly pro-EU party got zero seats.
