Mystery solved – at least in its most important points. The Pentagon has already officially confirmed that the Ukrainian armed forces received AGM-88 HARM anti-radiation missiles. What’s more, an official of the US Department of Defense informed during a press briefing that Ukraine uses MiG-i as carriers of the HARMs – which means that they must be MiG-29 fighters, as they are the only machines from the Mikojan and Guriewicz’s “stable” in the Ukrainian aviation. On August 9, we wrote that the US Undersecretary of Defense Colin Kahl confirmed that one of the recent arms deliveries to Ukraine included anti-radiation…

The price of natural gas for households that have concluded a market contract with one of the suppliers will be several times higher from October 1, according to some estimates even up to six times higher than the current one, which is why some suppliers, such as Rijeka’s Energo, are already preparing notices for customers in which they will be offered the possibility of changing suppliers or switching to gas supply under the obligation of public service, i.e. at a regulated price. Citizens could find some kind of salvation from the enormous price increase in terminating the contract with the…
The front line remains static along almost its entire length. For several weeks now – practically since the fall of Lisiczańska – the Russians have been making concrete progress only in the Bakhmuk direction, which we will look at later in the report. Besides, neither one nor the other side is able to push the opponent out of the currently occupied, more and more prepared and strengthened, defensive positions. The eyes of analysts are still on Kherson, but more and more is happening a hundred kilometers to the southeast – on the Crimean peninsula. In the Kherson section, let us…
It’s natural to be frustrated if seemingly good habits are having a negative effect on your gut, but consider checking them out. Small changes to the daily routine could improve the well-being of the body and digestion. If you’re working to create a healthier, more balanced lifestyle, then you probably have a number of habits that you’ve integrated into your daily routine to help you achieve your goals. And regular, consistent visits to the bathroom are important for overall health and generally feeling good about your own body, but some of the positive habits can actually have a negative effect…
Yesterday we wrote about the Arktur submarine concept presented at the Armija-2022 military-technical forum. Even though it is an avant-garde project, it cannot be denied coherence and (at least from the outside) logic. Perhaps in other realities it could turn into a real ship. Against this background, the vision of the aircraft carrier Koktiebiel looks rather like a poor and ill-considered joke. In fact, it is difficult to compare Koktiebel to other modern airships, and it is not even known where to begin his description. The first thing that draws attention, however, is the flight deck, which has abandoned the…
Dražen Jakšić, director of the Hrvoje Požar Energy Institute, commented for N1 on energy prices and what scenarios are expected in the fall. As for electricity prices, Jakšić said that they are many times higher in wholesale than a year ago, and that part of them is passed on to consumers, but also that households today pay a much lower price than the purchase price. “In any case, the pressure is great due to the influence of the crisis in Russia and Ukraine, and now we have a situation where this is an extremely dry year in the whole of…
The first Eurofighter Typhoon combat aircraft intended for the Qatar air force officially went to buyers. The handover ceremony for the machine, bearing number QA404 / ZR505, was held on August 15 at BAE Systems’ facility in Warton, Lancashire. The first batch of Qatari Typhoons are expected to hit their new homeland later this month. Fighters are to protect Qatari airspace during the World Cup finals held in this country, which begins on November 21. Qatar ordered twenty-four Typhoons in December 2017, including four two-seater, and with them also nine school-training Hawks Mk 167. The contract is worth £ 6…
Why are energy prices in Europe and the United States going in the opposite direction in recent weeks – in America they are falling, while in some EU members the price of energy has doubled in the last two months? In the US, they warn that it is too early to celebrate because energy prices are prone to unpredictable and strong changes, but it is obvious that oil prices on the American market have fallen by 30 percent in the last two months. According to the key American benchmark, crude oil is now below 90 dollars per barrel, and the…
One year after the entry into force of the Law on Civilian Victims of the Homeland War, 1,775 requests for the status and rights of civilian victims of the war were received, of which 596 requests were resolved, Večernji list writes on Monday. Civilian victims, after a quarter of a century of struggle for recognition of their sacrifice in the Homeland War, finally got a law that treats all civilians who died during the aggression against Croatia in a fairer way. The rights of civilian victims of the Homeland War have, for many decades, been regulated by the Law on…
During an air picnic in Cheb, a historic Hawker Hurricane Mk. IV (OO-HUR registration) produced in 1942. The plane crashed right outside the house outside the airport boundary. The pilot was killed on the spot, one person on the ground was slightly injured. After the accident, the shows were immediately stopped and the viewers were asked to return home. At the controls of Hurricane was Petr Pačes – a legend in the aviation world of our southern neighbors. In the Czechoslovak Air Force he flew MiG-21s. After 1992, he became a civilian and initially worked as an air traffic controller,…
