Ukraine's F-16 fighter jets didn't have enough missiles to shoot down Russian drones and missiles for more than 3 weeks after supplies from Kyiv's partners dried up just as Moscow was preparing a massive winter air campaign, three sources said.

The acute shortage from late November to mid-December, which has not been previously reported, lays bare the vulnerability of Ukraine's air defences which ​rely heavily on Western allies for missiles and defence systems to repel frequent Russian strikes.

Kyiv has often complained about a lack of weapons since the full-scale war began more than four years ago, sounding the alarm over critical shortages in recent months ‌while seeking not to anger Donald Trump's administration.

The Israeli military has ordered the entire population of Beirut’s southern suburbs to evacuate, as it continued to bomb Lebanon and Iran, while Tehran launched retaliatory strikes against Israel and US bases across the region.

An Israel Defense Forces spokesperson told all residents of Beirut’s southern suburbs – more than 500,000 people – to “save your lives and evacuate your homes immediately”, before Israel launched airstrikes on what he described as Hezbollah targets. The area covered by the order included several hospitals and government ministries.
...
The evacuation order was issued just a day after the Israeli military ordered all residents to flee the area south of the Litani River, which compromises about 10% of the country.

Emphasis mine. It's strange to me that very little of the conversation overall is about Lebanon, when Israel is pretty clearly invading it. Even most of this guardian report on the Beirut evacuation is about Iran.

Support for violence to resist feminism was highest among adolescent boys (28%), followed closely by adolescent girls (21%).

Perhaps most alarming: roughly 40% of boys aged 13 to 17 agreed that women lie about domestic and sexual violence.

These results raise crucial questions going forward. We don’t yet know how these views have changed over time, whether they are on the rise and what the links are between violent extremism and the negative treatment of women.

Support for the war is strong in this country. A poll released by the Israel Democracy Institute on Wednesday suggested that 93% of the Jewish public were in favour of it, compared with 26% among Israeli Arabs.

"This is actually a consensus," Prof Tamar Hermann, a senior research fellow who helped carry out the survey, said. "Even during the last campaign against Iran, we didn't have such high numbers."

In an interview broadcast on Asharq News on 3 March, Adhwan al-Ahmari, the editor-in-chief of Independent Arabia and the president of the Saudi Journalists Association, said that “not all attacks” targeting Persian Gulf nations come from Iran, and stressed fears that the US–Israeli alliance wants to “trap” Gulf nations into joining the war.

“Some believe this war is an American-Israeli trap to implicate the Gulf countries and draw them into a confrontation with Iran,” Ahmari said. “This hypothesis, I think, increases every day.”

Two additional Iranian sources told MEE that Israel’s Mossad intelligence service may have launched some operations from within Iran, claiming authorities were searching for drone storage facilities allegedly used in the attacks.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio admitted that the U.S. was forced into the war with Iran by Israel while speaking with reporters on Monday. He explained that the government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had effectively boxed in the Trump administration, taking the decision out of American hands.

“We knew that there was going to be an Israeli action,” Rubio explained. “We knew that that would precipitate an attack against American forces, and we knew that if we didn’t pre-emptively go after them before they launched those attacks, we would suffer higher casualties.”

I saw this over on reddit and people complaining that they "betrayed" their user base. It's amazing how many people think just because they're privacy based that means they won't respond to a lawful court order.

But Trump’s second administration has directed DHS to focus more on illegal immigration operations than on counterterrorism. This shift in resourcing has introduced a key question about the agency’s ability to fulfill its counterterrorism role at this time of unexpected crisis. Moreover, the expertise, knowledge, and institutional memory assembled on counterterrorism and homeland security over the past twenty-five years in DHS—and in the FBI and U.S. Intelligence Community—could have been lost in recent workforce cuts.

I'm familiar with the absolute basics of networking, but very little surrounding wifi.

I'm current using the modem-router-AP provided by my ISP, along with a couple repeaters. This isn't working well, and in areas of my house further away from my main AP, packet loss is often around 20% - near unusable. How should I improve this?

I can run some wires (within reason), and have multiple spare routers-APs to work with. I can also buy something new off the shelf if needed, but don't want to spend more than I have to. What would be the approach I should use? Like, is there a particular type of extender I should be using, or can I use multiple routers as a mesh or something?

Hello!

I've been playing around with self-hosting for a while now and I've started moving over to a VPS. At home I have a PC that's on more or less 24/7 with an *arr stack, jellyfin and some other services. They can only be accessed through Netbird. The services aren't that important, the data doesn't really need to be backed up since it's not very important. On the VPS, however, I would like to host some more critical services, such as:

  • Vaultwarden
  • Immich
  • Gitea
  • Overleaf

I want them available 24/7, even if I decide to distrohop and wipe my PC at home. The problem is how to structure all this. My current idea is to run Gitea and Overleaf out in the open behind some reverse proxy without authentication (Nginx or Nginx Proxy Manager). I'd like Vaultwarden and Immich to be on the same VPS, but, I don't want those services to be accessible to anyone but me, so I'd need some form of ACL or authentication system. I'm thinking of using Netbird for this, since I already use it on all of my devices.

So I would set up DNS records from within Netbird that would point immich.domain.tld and vaultwarden.domain.tld to the internal Netbird IP of the VPS. In the reverse proxy, I'd set up access control such that it only redirects the Netbird IP range to those services. On Cloudflare, I'd point git.domain.tld to the external IP of the VPS with proxy enabled.

Everything would receive HTTPS certificates, and I'd block incoming traffic on every port except for 80 and 443.

Is this a good setup? Any tips or recommendations? Any pitfalls?

Thanks!

Last thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?
