[REGNUM] Mixed style fighter Ilyas Yakubov was detained on October 22 on charges of publicly justifying terrorism. Izvestia reported this
The athlete was detained by employees of the capital's headquarters of the Russian Investigative Committee. According to investigators, the detainee recently recorded a video in which he justified the need to use terrorist methods, and then published it publicly on a banned social network. After this, the athlete was put on the federal wanted list, and he was soon detained.
“The investigation intends to petition the Chertanovsky court to select a preventive measure in the form of detention,” the Investigative Committee reported.
Yakubov is 31 years old. He made his debut fight at the professional level in 2013, defeating Ravil Risaev at the Pankration Black Sea Cup tournament. He entered the octagon for the second time two years later in the ACB league, losing to fighter Vitaly Slipenko by technical knockout. In the third battle, Yakubov was also defeated. The fighter participated in battles in various organizations in the period 2016–2020. Yakubov’s last fight was a fight with Roman Karasev at the Series 49 MMA tournament in February 2022, in which he won.
On Sunday, Telegram channel 112 reported that Yakubov was accused of publicly justifying terrorism. The 31-year-old athlete made a video on which he superimposed the statements of terrorist Shamil Basayev,
...a.k.a.Shamil Basaev, Shamil Salmanovich Basayev, his kunya "Abu Idris" and Emir Abdullah Shamil Abu-Idris (1965-2006). Chechen warlord in the post-Soviet Chechen Republic of Ichkeria, linked to Al Qaeda. After his death it became the Caucasus Emirate. In 2015 most of the hard boys changed their allegiance to the local Islamic State affiliate, Vilayat Kavkaz, whereupon a majority chose to escape the Russians hunting them by making hijra to the caliphate in Syria, where those not dead yet remain. Some of his projects were the 2004 Beslan school siege and the 2002 Moscow theater hostage crisis. In 2003, the US State Department designated three Chechen groups affiliated with Shamil Basaev as terrorists, accusing them of receiving millions of dollars from Al Qaeda...
responsible for organizing terrorist attacks in Moscow, Beslan and other cities. Yakubov later deleted the video. According to the channel, the capital’s investigative committee intends to ask the court to arrest the athlete; under the article, he faces a heavy fine or imprisonment of five to seven years.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] After rereading the article twice, I think that the arrested is a pro-Israel gentleman who threatened an unpermitted pro-Hamas march that ought not have veered off into the highly Jewish suburb of Skokie.

What I read was: "A man was confronted by members of the gathering at a mall across the street from the protest. He pulled out a firearm and started discharging it into the air "
Firing WARNING Shots into the air to avoid being stomped on and possibly murdered on by a group of Racist Rioters is a lot different than the misleading Click-Bait headline of ....shooting towards crowd.
BTW: There was also a Hit-n-Run at the scene.
Which was more than likely a motorists deciding to NOT be swarmed and physically attack by these Racist Rioters. Having seen many videos of the BLM & Anti-FA doing the same thing in LSD ran Metro's. May I suggest a Front bumper Deflector

FYI, WGN TV tells a different story, with all the usual Chicago-media "preferences." We live nearby, expect the details will filter out in the next day or so.

Still expecting a random shooter at one of these events, similar to the children's parties and high school sports gatherings that wind up in the news when some rando psycho opens fire.
[GEO.TV] The military trials of civilians, involved in the May 9 mayhem following the arrest of Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf ...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations.... (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan ...aka The Great Khan, who isn't your heaviest-duty thinker, maybe not even among the top five... in a corruption case, have already begun, the federal govt informed the Supreme Court.
The government told the court about the development related to trials in the military court in a miscellaneous application following orders of the top court on August 3, highlighting that at least 102 people were taken into custody due to their involvement in the attacks on military installations and establishments.
The development comes a day before a five-member apex court bench — headed by Justice Ijazul Ahsan, and comprising Justice Munib Akhtar, Justice Yahya Afridi, Justice Sayyed Mazahar Ali Akbar Naqvi and Justice Ayesha Malik — is scheduled to hear pleas challenging the trial of civilians in military courts.
"The accused persons were taken into custody during the month of May this year and have been in jug since then. The accused have been taken into custody under the Pakistain Army Act, 1952 read with the Official Secrets Act, 1923 for attacking military installations/establishments," the government stated, in its application.
The application mentioned that since these trials have already begun, it is important that they are conducted and concluded to ensure fairness towards the "accused persons".
"To safeguard the interests of the accused persons, it is imperative that their trials are conducted and concluded so that those who may merit acquittal can be acquitted and those who may merit minor sentences and have already served the time in jug can also be released," it further read.
The application also stated that if the accused persons are convicted, they can also avail remedies under the law.

[NYP] A former European Union envoy to Gaza is being slammed for allegedly empowering Hamas to use paragliders, the very devices employed by the Palestinian terrorists to invade Israel and kill more than 1,400. DFS-230 Assault Glider. The classic Fallschirmjäger workhorse achieved important successes in a handful of missions. Sven Kuhn von Burgsdorff, a German diplomat, crowed on video in July that he was conducting "the first Gaza paragliding flight in history" as he soared over Gaza’s coast while shouting, "Free Palestine!"
The giddy then-EU envoy told Palestinians in the footage that once they’re free, "You can do exactly the same thing."
But rather than seeing Palestinians enjoy recreational paragliding as he advocated, such gliders were instead used by Hamas to kill Israelis on Oct. 7.
Israel has since declared war on Hamas and launched devastating airstrikes on Gaza, prompting von Burgsdorff to condemn the Jewish state, claiming it "doesn’t matter what Hamas did," Israel Hayom reported.
"It cannot be that Israel has carte blanche because terrible acts, cruel and shocking acts happened to 1,000 or even 1,200 Israelis," von Burgsdorff said during a recent radio interview. "This is not the excuse you can use to flatten Gaza." I would not wish to be Herr von Burgsdorff.

Israel confirms it allowed entry of humanitarian aid from Egypt to Gaza today
The military’s liaison to the Palestinians confirms that Israel allowed the entry of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip via Egypt today, following requests by the Biden administration.
“At the request of the American administration and in accordance with the instructions of the political echelon, humanitarian aid from the United Nations containing only water, food, and medical equipment was brought into the southern Gaza Strip today, through the Rafah crossing in Egypt,” the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) says in a statement.
“All the equipment was checked by Israeli security officials before entering Gaza,” COGAT adds.
A defense source says that Israel will allow the entry of food, water, and medical supplies — but not fuel — to enter southern Gaza from Egypt, for Palestinian civilians of the area and those who have evacuated there, as long as it does not reach the Hamas terror group.
“Any other supply attempt that is not coordinated and approved by Israel, will be thwarted,” the source warns.

[GEO.TV] Hostility between the Israeli army and Hezbollah along the northern border of Israel with Leb ...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers... has pushed the Israeli authorities to order tens of thousands of Israeli residents to evacuate the vicinity.
Over the past 24 hours, evacuation orders were issued for 14 towns, while 28 others received similar directives in the preceding week.
These evacuations have evoked a range of reactions among the affected populations. Some residents expressed frustration and scepticism about their safety during the evacuation process.
This large-scale evacuation is a stark reflection of the palpable unease and anxiety gripping the region due to the mounting military tensions.

The spokesperson added that the eclipse operation in Gaza was aimed at damaging the infrastructure of Hamas ...the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,... within Gaza and clear the area from weapons. The operation was also aimed at searching the missing persons and bodies, he added.
ANOTHER JOURNALIST KILLED Meanwhile, ...back at the chili cook-off, Chuck reached for the green sauce... in the Gaza Strip, the Paleostinian community mourned the loss of photojournalist Rushdi Sarraj, who fell victim to an Israeli assault on his residence.
Sarraj was celebrated for his exceptional photographic talents and creative storytelling that shed light on the challenges faced by Gazooks living under the duress of conflict and a long-standing blockade.
Colleagues, including renowned international photojournalist Wissam Nassar, paid tribute to his memory.

Earlier, the Israeli forces targeted the Jenin refugee camp in the occupied West Bank after announcing intensifying Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... s on Gaza ahead of a planned ground invasion.
The airstrike targeted a mosque associated with the Jenin Brigade, labelled an "underground terrorist group" by Israel, reported Al Jazeera on Sunday.
According to Israeli sources, the al-Ansar mosque was associated with the Jenin Brigade, labelled an "underground terrorist group" by Israel and added that they were "neutralised", without giving details on the number killed in the strike or their identities.
The director of the Red Islamic Thingy in Jenin, Mahmoud al-Saadi, was quoted by the Paleostinian news agency Wafa saying one person was martyred and three others injured in the strike.
Dozens of people have been martyred in the West Bank by Israeli troops or settlers since October 7, when Hamas fighters stormed into Israel and killed at least 1,400 people, most of them civilians, according to Israeli reports.
Meanwhile, ...back at the chili cook-off, Chuck reached for the green sauce... Israel has launched heavy bombardment of the Gaza Strip in retaliation, which has martyred more than 4,741 Paleostinians, mostly civilians including over 1,000 children, according to the Gaza health ministry.
According to Al Jazeera correspondent Sara Khairat, the air strike took residents "by surprise" but it appears there may still be more to come.
"Eyewitness spoke to us and said they saw an F-fighter jet in the sky, they heard it and then the Israeli army came out to confirm it was an air strike," said Khairat live from Ramallah.
The mosque was the site of a two-day Israeli siege in July when Israeli forces found a network of tunnels and seized equipment, drones, and ammunition, she said.

“We are not stopping our attacks on the Strip,” he says, adding that dozens of Hamas members, including the deputy commander of the terror group’s rocket array, were killed in overnight strikes.
[BBC] Dozens of Arab citizens of Israel have been arrested in connection with social media posts about the war in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... Among them is a well-known singer and influencer from Nazareth, Dalal Abu Amneh, who was held in police custody for two days before being released on Wednesday on bail. She's now under house arrest until Monday.
According to her lawyer, Abeer Baker, she was accused of "disruptive behaviour" by coppers, who said her posts could incite violence among her followers.
The post that attracted police attention was an image of the Paleostinian flag with the Arabic motto: "There is no victor but God."
Ms Baker says the singer, who is well known across the Arab world for her songs about Paleostinian heritage, was expressing a religious sentiment. Israeli authorities interpreted the singer's post as a call to arms for Paleostinians.
Since the start of the war between Israel and Hamas ...a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",... , police in Israel have adopted what they call a "zero tolerance policy" towards social media activity deemed to express support for Hamas, an Islamist group which is committed to the destruction of Israel and designated as a terrorist group by Israel, as well as the US, UK, and many other countries.
Ms Abu Amneh is one of dozens of Arab citizens of Israel arrested in connection with social media posts about the war.
Many others have been suspended or sacked from their jobs or face disciplinary action from their universities.
Israeli Arabs - many of whom prefer to be called Paleostinian citizens of Israel - make up a fifth of the country's population.
Since Hamas's attack, police say they have investigated and detained more than 100 people for their social media activity. Sixty-three have been arrested and questioned in Jerusalem alone.
"Anyone inciting against the State of Israel, its government symbols, elected officials, military personnel and police, should be aware that the Israel Police will respond firmly and without leniency," said Israel's Police Commissioner, Yaakov Shabtai, at a meeting with big shots this week.
Adalah, the Legal Centre for Arab Minority Rights in Israel, believes the number of detained is higher as more arrests have been made recently.
By comparison, during the Israel-Gaza conflict in May 2021, only 16 people - 15 of whom were Arab - were charged with inciting violence, according to a report released by Adalah.
Human rights activists worry this spike in detentions is due to the police adopting a wider interpretation of what constitutes incitement to violence.
In the Bedouin city of Rahat, for example, police have detained a former mayoral candidate, Dr Amer al-Huzail, who shared on social media a map of the Gaza Strip with an analysis of possible scenarios for an expected ground operation by Israeli forces.
This has led him to be accused of aiding the enemy in a time of war.
[GEO.TV] An Iranian teenage girl who lapsed into a coma earlier this month following an alleged encounter with authorities regarding her violation of the country's hijab law is reportedly in a "brain-dead" state, as reported by Iranian state media on Sunday.
The situation was initially made public by human rights ...which are usually open to widely divergent definitions... groups such as Kurdish-Iranian Hengaw, who shared images of the 16-year-old girl on social media. These photos showed her unconscious, connected to a respiratory tube, and with a bandage on her head, indicating she was on life support.
Rooters was unable to independently confirm the authenticity of these images.
According to state media, the latest health assessments for Geravand suggest that she is, unfortunately, brain-dead, despite the dedicated efforts of the medical staff.
This situation has raised concerns among human rights advocates, with parallels being drawn to the fate of Mahsa Amini, whose death in the custody of morality police last year triggered nationwide anti-government protests, posing a significant challenge to Iran's holy manal rulers.
Iranian authorities have denied any harm coming to Geravand following an altercation with officers on October 1, relating to the enforcement of the mandatory Islamic dress code within the Tehran metro.
Since the popular revolution in 1979, which removed the secular and Western-backed Shah from power, Iran's theocratic establishment has imposed strict regulations on women's attire. Women are legally required to cover their hair and wear long, loose-fitting clothing.
Violations of these dress code rules can result in public admonishment, fines, or even arrests. In the wake of Amini's tragic death, more women have been publicly defying the stringent Islamic dress code, appearing unveiled in various public spaces such as malls, restaurants, and shops across the country.
