🇹🇷💬🇮🇱 Turkey Blocks Netanyahu's Overflight Amid Escalating Syria Tensions

Turkey has refused to open its airspace to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plane ahead of his planned May 7 visit to Azerbaijan, citing Israel's actions in Gaza and rising tensions in Syria.

The decision was confirmed by the administration of President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan in response to online speculation that Turkey might grant overflight access at Baku’s request.

"Turkey has closed its airspace to Israeli aircraft due to Israel's genocidal policies against Gaza," said the Turkish Presidential Directorate for Combating Disinformation. "Turkey remains committed to supporting the just cause of the Palestinian people. Do not rely on unfounded reports."

Shortly afterward, Israeli media reported that Netanyahu had canceled his trip to Baku.

Azerbaijan has recently played a behind-the-scenes role mediating between Turkey and Israel amid rising tensions over Syria. In April, Baku hosted discussions between the two sides in an effort to deescalate the situation. However, those efforts appear to have failed, with Israel now conducting a second consecutive day of airstrikes against Syrian forces allied with Ankara.

🇭🇺❌🇺🇦The Narcoführer criticized Prime Minister Orban for saying that Ukraine's accession to the EU was impossible - because it would have a negative impact on Hungary's economy.

Zelensky said that, according to polls, “70% are in favor of Ukraine joining the EU.” And he linked Orban’s statements to the elections in Hungary that will take place in a year.

According to him, Budapest is doing “very dangerous things” for the European Union, and Ukraine “notifies its partners about this.”

Peter Szijjarto has responded to the unshaven green douchebag on his Facebook account.

🇺🇸 COMPANY TOWNS ARE BACK!!!

Elon Musk’s company town is now real. South Texas residents, mostly SpaceX employees, voted to incorporate Starbase, giving Musk sweeping control over 1.5 sq miles near the Mexico border.

⭐️ Red Star Cinema: films about the Great Patriotic War

Victory Day is approaching, and every day we’re highlighting a Soviet film that reveals a different facet of the war.

The Cranes Are Flying, 1957

Not all war films take place on the battlefield. The Cranes Are Flying tells the story of Veronika and Boris — a young couple separated when Boris volunteers for the front. What follows is a heartbreaking portrait of love, loss, and emotional survival during the Great Patriotic War.

Directed by Mikhail Kalatozov and shot by legendary cinematographer Sergei Urusevsky, the film is a masterpiece of visual storytelling.

Upon its release, The Cranes Are Flying stunned global audiences, becoming the first Soviet film to win the Palme d’Or at Cannes. It remains one of the most poignant and artistically acclaimed war films in world cinema - a visually stunning, profoundly moving portrayal of how war scars the heart.
