NATO says it is set to deploy three surveillance planes to Romania next week to perform reconnaissance missions, strengthening Romania’s eastern flank and to “monitor Russian military activity.”
In a statement on Friday, the military alliance said that the three of Airborne Warning and Control System planes (AWACS) will be sent on Tuesday to an air base near Romania’s capital, Bucharest, on a mission expected to last several weeks.
According to NATO’s spokeswoman Oana Lungescu, AWACS aircraft, which belong to a fleet of 14 usually based in Germany, are “capable of detecting planes hundreds of kilometers away, making them a key capability for NATO’s deterrence and defense posture.”
Each AWACS aircraft can typically stay in the air for eight and a half hours at an altitude of 9,000 meters (30,000 feet). In Addition, it can monitor an area as large as Poland while flying and increase its flight time by air-to-air refueling.
Around 180 military personnel will be stationed at Romania’s Otopeni Air Base to support NATO’s AWACS aircraft.....More Below

UG Solutions, a leading US military subcontractor that previously provided security for the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) and helped run Gaza’s deadly aid distribution system, is aggressively recruiting for a new round of deployments to the blockaded Palestinian territory, a media report says.
A former army officer who recently applied for a position told Drop Site that a UG Solutions official openly described plans for more than a dozen new aid sites in Gaza.
The officer further emphasized that the company was “going to need a lot more guys.”
Applicants are reportedly being told deployments could begin by December, with salaries of up to $1,000 per day plus per diem.
One recruit described interviews focused on weapons tests, “rules of escalation,” and questions about whether he would obey superiors regardless of past military rank. After multiple rounds of vetting, he was abruptly rejected......more below

Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says Iran now considers the Cairo understanding with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) terminated, following the passage of an anti-Iran resolution at the agency’s Board of Governors.
The Board on Thursday narrowly approved the resolution drafted by the European Troika - France, Germany and the UK - and the United States—passing 19–3 with 12 abstentions—that urges Tehran to “without delay” report on its enriched uranium stockpile and facilities damaged in the June aggression by Israel and the US, while omitting any mention of Iran’s longstanding cooperation with the agency.
Araghchi condemned the move, calling the resolution “illegal and unjustified.” He said the measure was adopted “under pressure from these four countries” despite opposition or abstentions from 15 board members.
Araghchi said the action undermined the IAEA’s “credibility and independence” and would disrupt the agency’s cooperation with ...
