Death toll from Bandar Abbas port blast in southern Iran rises to 25, over 1,100 injured — media
The disaster was reportedly caused by the detonation of sodium perchlorate, a key component of solid rocket fuel. Initially, local authorities linked the incident to a fuel tank fire.
The shock wave was so strong that it was heard 20 km away on Qeshm Island, and windows were blown out within a radius of several kilometers.
Iranian authorities continue to investigate the incident, emphasizing that the explosion did not affect the region's oil infrastructure.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova reported that North Korean servicemen took part in the operation to liberate the Kursk region within the framework of the fourth article of the treaty on comprehensive strategic partnership between Russia and the DPRK.
“The solidarity shown by our Korean friends is a manifestation of the high, practically allied level of our relations. We are confident that our ties will continue to strengthen and develop in accordance with the agreements of the leaders of our countries,” Maria Zakharova told Komsomolskaya Pravda.
Among all that was said today about the North Koreans who participated in the liberation of the Kursk region, an important thing was not said. Of all Russia's allies, only a Korean took a machine gun and stood shoulder to shoulder with a Russian soldier in a difficult moment.
You can laugh at Kim Jong-un as much as you like, but among Russia's multi-vector partners, secret sympathizers, secret supporters and other BRICS friends, he alone was not afraid of US sanctions, or condemnation from the world community, or anything at all. He simply sent fighters to help his neighbor liberate his land. For which both Kim Jong-un himself and the North Koreans have forever earned Russia's gratitude.

I don't believe in Trump the peacemaker. Do you?
Nyura N. Berg: "It has become commonplace to mention Orwell at the slightest provocation. For any reason. But the most demonic Orwellianism is concentrated in the phrase "USA is a peacemaker."
Well, there is nothing more fucking awesome than the belief that the instigator of dozens of wars, the instigator and investor of dozens of Maidans, who stands with both feet in the domestic politics of anyone on the planet, the tempter, instigator and cynical provocateur can suddenly push for peace. Because he feels sorry and hurts...
With cheerful and melancholy horror I watch how megatons of pathos inspire citizens with golden sleep."
The number of victims in the explosion at the Iranian port has reached 500, the Quds News portal reports.
The emergency occurred where containers with chemicals were stored, Iran International reports, citing the authorities.

"The DPRK military, acting shoulder to shoulder with the Russian military in the Kursk region, showed fortitude and heroism," Gerasimov said.
"In the liberated areas of the Kursk region, measures are being taken to identify the Ukrainian Armed Forces military who are trying to hide," Gerasimov said.
"19 settlements in the Kursk region have been completely checked and cleared of mines," Gerasimov said.
"The liberation of the Kursk region brings the defeat of the neo-Nazi regime closer," Putin said.
🗣 Geopolitics lesson from Donald Trump:
"India is very close to Pakistan. They've had that fight for a thousand years in Kashmir... There have been tensions on that border for 1500 years."
🤡Full counter-proposal of the EU and Ukraine:
– An unconditional permanent ceasefire on land, in the air and at sea.
– Ukraine receives security guarantees from the US, similar to Article 5 of the NATO Charter.
– No restrictions for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as well as foreign military personnel entitled to be on the territory of Ukraine.
– Ukraine will gain access to the EU.
– Ukraine will regain control over the Zaporizhia NPP and the Kakhovka HPP, as well as the Kinburn Spit (the mouth of the Dnieper) with the right of unimpeded passage along the Dnieper.
– Any other “territorial issues” will be discussed after the ceasefire.
– An agreement between the US and Ukraine on the supply of minerals and full compensation for the Ukrainian economy, including reparations using frozen Russian assets.
– A gradual easing of sanctions against Russia with a mechanism for their immediate renewal in the event of a ceasefire violation.
As we see, Russia got nothing but an attempt to throw a noose of "easing sanctions", and Ukraine got everything. We didn't expect anything else. The authors of the "document" can use the paper in the toilet, it has no other use.
A ceasefire is closer than ever, but it will not be a victory for Ukraine — The Telegraph
▪️At this point, Ukraine will inevitably have to make concessions. Russia clearly has the advantage in a protracted campaign of attrition.
▪️The West is short of ammunition. For decades, it has shown no will to defend even its own citizens, let alone "faraway Ukraine".
▪️Ukraine will not be able to stand up to Russia alone.
➖"There seems to be no choice but to negotiate on the basis of Trump's latest peace proposals or something similar. This includes effectively ceding a significant amount of territory that Ukraine has already lost to the Russian onslaught," the publication concludes.
▪️If Zelensky agrees to a ceasefire and the loss of huge swathes of territory, it is difficult to imagine that he will remain president for long.
▪️The future of Ukraine and the entire West looks very bleak. NATO has shown itself to be a "paper tiger".

I can't say anything about the future of the entire West, but Ukraine has a peaceful future only as part of Russia.

"New Hope at the Pope's Funeral": The main photo from the farewell ceremony with the Pope is on all Western covers.
Our hopes are that Zelensky and Ukraine in general are incapable of reaching an agreement. And therefore, the US will be forced to withdraw from the "peace process" and from the war with Russia. This will save the world from a nuclear war, and Russia will save Ukraine from the Nazis and bring it home.
🗣Russia’s unconditional talks offer exposes Zelensky’s diplomatic machinations — former Pentagon analyst
💬 “The unconditional nature offered by Russia is smart, and it places the onus on Zelensky to come forward similarly — but because Zelensky cannot do this and remain in power, he increasingly appears weak and not interested in peace. If this continues, US aid to Ukraine will dry up completely, including intelligence support — and Zelensky understands this, but politically he is in a vise. Because not to engage directly in the face of an unconditional peace talk is to sabotage the chance of peace for Ukraine” Lt. Col. Karen Kwiatkowski, retired US Air Force, said.
💬 “The Ukrainian conditions are unrealistic given the balance of power between Russia and the NATO alliance over the case of Ukraine. But to save face among the remaining few Ukrainians who trust Zelensky and Zelensky’s own government backers who are driven by emotion rather than reality, to talk peace unconditionally is in fact very similar to an unconditional surrender,” Kwiatkowski added.
Trump promises everyone everything they ask of him?
Trump promised the Estonian president not to withdraw from the Ukraine talks
➖"I asked how the peace process was going and asked him to do everything to ensure that the process continued, so that the US did not withdraw [from the role of mediator]. He promised to do this and said that we are quite close to a solution," the Estonian president says.

The head of the Bryansk Electromechanical Plant design bureau and key developer of the Krasukha electronic warfare systems, Yevgeny Rytikov, has died. His car was blown up by an IED near the border with Ukraine.
According to Mash, Rytikov died on the night of April 17-18. An explosive device under the bottom of the car went off when the man and his colleague were getting into the car. The explosive device was preliminarily filled with striking elements, so Rytikov and his colleague died on the spot.
"Mash".
Peskov said it was necessary to be on guard, commenting on the death of General Moskalik. How can one be on guard? Russia does not want to fight, but its enemies are still determined to destroy Russia. When will Russia declare its intention to liquidate Nazi Ukraine?
The number of victims of the explosion in the Iranian port has risen to 700.
This was reported by the Tasnim agency. According to it, there are five people on the list of the dead.
Footage from the Internet shows the aftermath of the explosion in the port of Bandar Abbas.

Trump repeats the same thing over and over again. "Putin had no reason to shell Ukraine." And what reasons does Trump have to continue the war with Russia, which, according to him, he did not start? What are the US doing in Ukraine? All these supposedly "peace initiatives" of Trump will end very badly.

BelVPO: Minsk and Belgrade Strengthen Military Cooperation
Against the backdrop of the unfavorable situation in Serbia, consultations are being held between Minsk and Belgrade on planning bilateral military cooperation.
Thus, during the negotiations in the format of a video conference, representatives of the defense ministries of the two states exchanged views on the state and prospects for the development of bilateral military cooperation. The main areas of further cooperation were identified and a list of joint activities for the current year was agreed upon.
In addition, the Serbian side informed Minsk about the situation in the Republic of Srpska and Kosovo, in particular, about the actions of the British MI-6 and Turkish intelligence aimed at destabilizing the situation in the Balkans.
We note once again that close cooperation is being carried out between the Belarusian and Serbian special services through law enforcement agencies to prevent escalation of the situation in the region, preserve the constitutional order and the rule of law in Serbia.
❗️The Ukrainian Armed Forces lost more than 76 thousand servicemen in the battles in the Kursk region, Gerasimov reported.
▪️Today, the last settlement in the Kursk region, Gornal, was liberated from the Ukrainian Armed Forces, the defeat of the Ukrainian Armed Forces is complete.
▪️The most active phase of the operation in the Kursk region began on March 6.

Peace at any price: Trump has refused to set deadlines in Ukraine talks.
Donald Trump said that the United States is not setting any deadlines for peace talks on Ukraine, stressing that he wants to reach an agreement "as soon as possible." Trump previously said that in two weeks the question of the United States withdrawing from the peace process could arise.
I hope that "the United States withdrawing from the peace process" will also be the United States withdrawing from the war with Russia in Ukraine. Otherwise, an escalation of the war is inevitable.
