Diehl Metall defence plant on fire in Berlin
A factory of the defence-industrial company Diehl, which produces the Iris-T air defence system, caught fire in Berlin, BZ Berlin reports.
The plant is located in the district of Lichterfelde and includes an electroplating facility where metal surfaces are treated. Residents were warned of toxic smoke, urged to stay away from the site, switch off air conditioners, and close doors and windows.
Adrian Wentzel, a spokesman for the Berlin Fire Brigade and currently at the scene of the fire said:
“The building is now completely burnt out on four floors. Part of the building has already collapsed. We are only extinguishing from the outside. From the inside, the fire can no longer be brought under control.”
The Diehl Metal Applications plant workshop contains sulphuric acid and copper cyanide – their combination can produce the extremely poisonous hydrocyanic acid. 130 firefighters in special protective suits are involved in the extinguishment. Teachers and students from nearby schools have been sent home, and shops in the vicinity of the plant have also been closed.
The cause of the fire has not yet been determined, local emergency services said. Its area was 2,000 square metres, there were no casualties – employees of the plant left it on their own.

My thoughts on new "Master and Margarita" movie
SPOILERS!!!
This is the first movie that after I watched it I didn’t know what to think. First of all I absolutely love this movie, the visuals and characterization was awesome, August Diehl as Woland was perfectly casted, but I have some things I must point out.
The whole idea with Master being also the author of "Master and Margarita" was interesting, sometimes I get confused in which thing was real and which Master's imagination but things don't need to be easy to be good. The only thing is that I feel that Master's book about Pilate was completely forgotten and that was a pretty big part in the Bulgakov story.
Another thing is Koroviov, my favorite character. I actually like his new portrayal, it was sometimes maybe a little over the top but I could accept that. The only thing I can't forgive is that they didn’t show his true form of a knight (that doesn't ruining the movie just gets me mad). He also didn’t have enough screentime imo.
The third thing is that I hoped for more scenes from the book. Movie covers only a few most important chapters, but in defence I must say that this scenes were done perfectly.
I also feel that if somebody didn’t read the book would be really confused, but I really hope that people read and will read the book first
In therms of a new view on "Master and Margarita" story it was awesome but I prefer the original book story more. But as whole I really liked it.
I think my rate of this movie will be 8/10 bc even the negative parts the good one beats everything.

La Lituania pronta ad acquistare il sistema IRIS-T SLM Il Ministro della Difesa Nazionale Lituana, Laurynas Kasčiūnas, a margine dell’incontro tenuto con l’omologo tedesco Boris Pistorius, ha dichiarato che sono in corso valutazioni per l’acquisto del sistema di difesa aerea Iris-T SLM sviluppato e prodotto da Diehl Defence. L’IRIS-T SML si è ampiamente dimostrato valido durante l’impiego in Ucraina contrastando con grande successo i missili da crociera, i velivoli da combattimento, le loitering munitions ed i droni impiegati dai Russi nel conflitto in corso. Inoltre, le confinanti Estonia e Lettonia già hanno annunciato la loro volontà di acquistare tale sistema nell’ambito della European Sky Shield Initiative (ESSI) lanciata dalla

Small, well-built Chinese EV called the Seagull poses a big threat to the US auto industry (AP) A tiny, low-priced electric car called the Seagull has American automakers and politicians trembling. The car, launched last year by Chinese automaker BYD, sells for around $12,000 in China, but drives well and is put together with craftsmanship that rivals U.S.-made electric vehicles that cost three times as much. A shorter-range version costs under $10,000. Tariffs on imported Chinese vehicles probably will keep the Seagull away from America’s shores for now, and it likely would sell for more than 12 grand if imported. But the rapid emergence of low-priced EVs from China could shake up the global auto industry in ways not seen since Japanese makers exploded on the scene during the oil crises of the 1970s. BYD, which stands for “Build Your Dreams,” could be a nightmare for the U.S. auto industry.
Mexico Prepares for a Potential Trump Win (NYT) They’re studying his interviews, bracing for mass deportations and preparing policy proposals to bring to the negotiating table. As Mexico heads toward its presidential election next month, government officials and campaign aides are also girding for a different vote: one in the United States that could return Donald Trump to the presidency. The last time Mr. Trump took office, his win surprised many of America’s allies, and his threat-filled diplomacy forced them to adapt on the go. Now, they have time to anticipate how Mr. Trump’s victory would transform relations that President Biden has tried to normalize—and they’re furiously preparing for an upheaval. For some, the memory of negotiating with Mr. Trump the last time he was in office, when he used extreme threats against Mexico, looms large. What it took to reach a deal with Mr. Trump’s team back then? “Time, patience, cold blood,” the former Mexican foreign minister Marcelo Ebrard said in an interview. “You can win, if you understand this. It’s not easy.”
Russian Forces Push Deeper Into Northern Ukraine (NYT) In the past three days, Russian troops, backed by fighter jets, artillery and lethal drones, have poured across Ukraine’s northeastern border and seized at least nine villages and settlements, ­and more square miles per day than at almost any other point in the war, save the very beginning. In some places, Ukrainian troops are retreating, and Ukrainian commanders are blaming each other for the defeats. Thousands of Ukrainian civilians are fleeing to Kharkiv, the nearest big city. As anxiety spreads, some hard questions loom: How far will this go? Is it just a momentary setback for the underdog Ukrainians? Or a turning point? Ukrainian soldiers, by all accounts, are exhausted. More than two years of trying to fight off a country with three times the population to draw from has left Ukraine so depleted and desperate for fresh troops that its lawmakers have voted to mobilize convicts, a controversial practice that Ukraine had ridiculed Russia for using in the first half of the war.
Russia is ramping up sabotage across Europe (Economist) The fire that broke out in the Diehl Metall factory in the Lichterfelde suburb of Berlin on May 3rd was not in itself suspicious. The facility, a metals plant, stored sulphuric acid and copper cyanide, two chemicals that can combine dangerously when ignited. Accidents happen. What raised eyebrows was the fact that Diehl’s parent company makes the iris-t air-defence system which Ukraine is using to parry Russian missiles. There is no evidence that this fire was an act of sabotage. If the idea is plausible it is because there is ample evidence that Russia’s covert war in Europe is intensifying. In April alone a clutch of alleged pro-Russian saboteurs were detained across the continent. Germany arrested two German-Russian dual nationals on suspicion of plotting attacks on American military facilities and other targets on behalf of the GRU, Russia’s military intelligence agency. Poland arrested a man who was preparing to pass the GRU information on Rzeszow airport, the most important hub for military aid to Ukraine. Britain charged several men over an earlier arson attack in March on a Ukrainian-owned logistics firm in London whose Spanish depot was also targeted. The men are accused of aiding the Wagner Group, a mercenary group that has been active in Ukraine and is now under the GRU’s control. On May 8th Britain announced that in response to “malign activity” it was, among other steps, expelling Russia’s defence attaché, an “undeclared” GRU officer.
Georgia: Agents of foreign influence (Foreign Policy) The Georgian Parliament’s legal committee on Monday approved the third and final reading of a controversial foreign agents bill that has brought tens of thousands of Georgians to the streets in recent months to protest what they see as a Russian-style effort to chill free speech. Lawmakers took only 67 seconds to review and greenlight the legislation. Parliament is expected to pass the bill on Tuesday, and Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze has promised to back it. Opposition members, who have recently been denied access to Tbilisi’s main government building, did not attend Monday’s vote. Under the proposed legislation, civil society organizations and media outlets that receive more than 20 percent of their funding from abroad must register as “agents of foreign influence.” In April, the ruling Georgian Dream party introduced the bill, which is modeled after a Russian foreign agents law that President Vladimir Putin enacted in 2012 and has since used to crush dissent. Mass demonstrations have erupted in the capital in response to the proposed law, marking some of the largest rallies in Georgia since it declared independence from the Soviet Union in 1991.
India’s mammoth election is more than halfway done as millions begin voting in fourth round (AP) Millions of Indians across 96 constituencies began casting their ballots on Monday as the country’s gigantic, six-week-long election edges past its halfway mark. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is seeking a third straight term with an eye on winning a supermajority in Parliament. Monday’s polling in the fourth round of multi-phase national elections across nine states and one union territory will be pivotal for Modi’s Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party, as it includes some of its strongholds in states like Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. The staggered election will run until June 1 and nearly 970 million voters, more than 10% of the world’s population, will elect 543 members to the lower house of Parliament for five years. The votes are scheduled to be counted on June 4.
Malaysia’s appetite for oil and gas puts it on collision course with China (Washington Post) In the open sea off the coast of Malaysian Borneo, industrial rigs extract massive amounts of oil and gas that fuel the economy of Malaysia. Slightly beyond that, in waters Malaysia also considers its own, Chinese coast guard vessels and maritime militia boats maintain a near-constant presence, say Malaysian officials. For 10 years, their country has done little to contest them. But Malaysia is running out of oil and gas close to shore. Increasingly, it has to venture farther out to sea, raising the likelihood of direct confrontation with Chinese forces in the South China Sea. As tensions rise throughout the South China Sea, one of the world’s busiest and most contested bodies of water, energy demands are drawing Malaysia deeper into the fray and testing the country’s long-standing reluctance to antagonize China, according to interviews with more than two dozen government officials, diplomats, oil and gas executives and analysts in Malaysia.
More bodies found in Indonesia after flash floods killed dozens and submerged homes (AP) Rescuers recovered more bodies Monday after monsoon rains triggered flash floods on Indonesia’s Sumatra Island, bringing down torrents of cold lava and mud, leaving 41 people dead and another 17 missing. The heavy rains, along with a landslide of mud and cold lava from Mount Marapi, caused a river to breach its banks. The deluge tore through mountainside villages along four districts in West Sumatra province just before midnight Saturday. The floods swept away people and submerged nearly 200 houses and buildings.
Sleepy far-flung towns in the Philippines will host US forces returning to counter China threats (AP) The far-flung coastal town of Santa Ana in the northeastern tip of the Philippine mainland has long been known by tourists mostly for its beaches, waterfalls, fireflies and a few casinos. But that’s changing after the laid-back town of about 35,000 people, which still has no traffic light, became strategically important to America. The United States and the Philippines, which are longtime treaty allies, have identified Santa Ana in northern Cagayan province as one of nine mostly rural areas where rotating batches of American forces could encamp indefinitely and store their weapons and equipment on local military bases under the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement. Thousands of U.S. forces withdrew from two huge Navy and Air Force bases in the Philippines in the early 1990s at the end of the Cold War, ending nearly a century of American military presence in the country. In recent years, Washington has been reinforcing an arc of military alliances in Asia to counter an increasingly assertive China, which it now regards as its greatest security challenge.
The flow of food and other aid into Gaza has almost entirely dried up over the past week, the U.N. says. (NYT) The flow of aid into Gaza has almost entirely dried up in the past week, according to the United Nations, at a time when humanitarian agencies say the enclave needs a drastic increase in the amount of food, medicine and other goods to tackle a looming famine. Since the start of the war, most aid for Gaza has entered through two border crossings in the southern end of the territory. Israel shut down one of those, Kerem Shalom, after a Hamas rocket attack nearby killed four Israeli soldiers on May 5. The next day, Israel’s military seized and closed the second, in Rafah, on the Egyptian border, as part of what it called a “limited operation” against Hamas, bringing the flow of aid to a near-total stop.
Christian presence quickly dwindling in Gaza after seven months of war (Baptist Press) At Easter, Gaza Baptist Church leader Shady Al-Najjar described those sheltered in the church’s remnants as “too tired to suffer,” living “very difficult” and “useless” days. Al-Najjar has since fled to Egypt, and the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have set up shop in what remains of the church compound damaged in the war, former church pastor Hanna Massad told Baptist Press May 8. Al-Najjar is among many Christians who are fleeing Gaza with a renewed vigilance, International Christian Concern (ICC) said as the Israel-Hamas War enters its eighth month, speculating whether any Christians would remain. ICC estimated 25 percent to half of the 900 to 1,000 Christians who lived in Gaza before the war have fled, and that an additional 25 percent are applying to leave.
Hospitals overflowing in besieged Sudanese city as final battle looms (Washington Post) Dozens of people were killed in fighting in the Sudanese town of El Fashir this weekend, a civil society group said Sunday, raising fears for more than 2.5 million civilians trapped there as paramilitary forces encircle the city—the last one in the region outside their control. “Today was one of toughest days we have ever witnessed … The attack was from three directions,” wrote a member of the city’s Emergency Response Room in a message to The Washington Post. “The fighting was inside the populated areas, all kinds of weapons were used.” At least 38 civilians were killed, 189 injured and “many houses” destroyed, he said. “The hospital is calling for blood donations, they say the numbers of wounded are over their capacity.” Abdo Musa Hassan, the medical director of El Fashir South Hospital, said on Sunday he was too busy to give a death toll. But he said the hospital was already overwhelmed and patients were being treated on the ground, in a tent or on balconies. Medical resupplies had been cut off two weeks ago after the RSF seized control of the Melit area, which links El Fashir to the rest of Sudan, he said.

Diehl Defence to integrate IRIS-T Missile to the FA-50 and KF-21 Aircraft
Tumblr media
The German Company Diehl Defence and Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to integrate their Infra-Red Imaging System-Tail/Thrust vector-controlled (IRIS-T) Short Range Air to Air Missile (SRAAM) into the FA-50 Fighting Eagle and KF-21 Boramae Aircraft.
The Philippine Air Force (PAF) currently operates a dozen of the FA-50PH Fighting Eagle Aircraft, and also uses the AIM-9L/I-1 Sidewinder Missile which is also made by Diehl Defence. The IRIS-T Missile is also already integrated into the JAS-39C/D Gripen which the Philippines is reportedly getting soon.
So this is a good Prospect for the IRIS-T, if the Philippines does get the Gripen soon and the Boramae later then that will be three Platforms in the Philippines that can use it.
Here is a Picture by the way of the Full Scale Mock Ups (FSMU) of the AIM-9L/I-1 and the IRIS-T that I took during the Asian Defense and Security (ADAS) 2022 Event which I haven’t released to the Public yet until now. I will also be uploading this to Wikimedia Commons after this Posting

KAI KF-21 Boramae Fighter Aircraft Accomplished First Successful Firing of IRIS-T Air-to-air Missile
Diehl Defence’s IRIS-T short-range air-to-air missile (AIM-2000) has been fired for the first time as guided missile from KAI’s KF-21, Korea’s 4.5th generation indigenous fighter currently under development. This test firing marks another significant milestone in Korea’s most important fighter program. The successful firing this month follows previous successes of IRIS-T evaluations on the KF-21: Just a few months after the first flight of the aircraft in early 2023, a safe separation test was done by firing an unguided missile in flight in May 2023. Now in May 2024, the missile was designated by the onboard AESA radar, and it successfully engaged the target drone. This end-to-end test proves the initial air-to-air capability of the fighter and underlines once more the outstanding performance of IRIS-T.
