Russia launches large-scale attack on Ukraine, three dead, dozens injured

The enemy’s target was our infrastructure, residential areas, and civilian enterprises, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated. He added that a missile armed with cluster munitions struck a multi-storey building in the city of Dnipro.

“Each such strike is not a military necessity but a deliberate strategy by Russia to intimidate civilians and destroy our infrastructure,” Zelenskyy wrote on his official Telegram account.

The Ukrainian President also informed that he expects to meet United States (US) President Donald Trump on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) next week. He added that the first ladies of Ukraine and the US would likely hold separate talks focused on humanitarian issues concerning children.

His comments, made on Friday, were embargoed until Saturday morning.

At least 30 people were wounded in the attack in Ukraine’s central Dnipropetrovsk region, Governor Serhii Lysak said. Several high-rise buildings and homes were damaged in the eastern city of Dnipro, according to the Associated Press (AP).

In the Kyiv region, authorities reported strikes in Bucha, Boryspil, and Obukhiv, which damaged homes and cars. In western Lviv, Governor Maxim Kozytsky said two cruise missiles were shot down.

Russia launched 619 drones and missiles, Ukraine’s Air Force reported. This included 579 drones, eight ballistic missiles, and 32 cruise missiles. Ukrainian forces shot down 552 drones, two ballistic missiles, and 29 cruise missiles.

“Western weapons once again prove their effectiveness on the battlefield,” the Air Force said.

**Russia Denies Violating Estonia’s Airspace**

Russia’s Defence Ministry denied its aircraft violated Estonia’s airspace after Tallinn reported that three Russian fighter jets crossed into its territory on Friday without permission for 12 minutes. The incident was described by Estonia’s top diplomat as an unprecedentedly brazen incursion.

This occurred just over a week after NATO planes downed Russian drones over Poland, raising fears that the conflict could spill over into NATO territory.

Moscow stated that the MiG-31 fighter jets remained over neutral Baltic Sea waters, more than three kilometres from Estonia’s Vaindloo Island in the Gulf of Finland.

On September 19, the three MiG-31 fighter jets completed a scheduled flight from Karelia to an airfield in the Kaliningrad region. The Russian Defence Ministry emphasized that the flight was conducted in strict compliance with international airspace regulations and did not violate the borders of other states, as confirmed through objective monitoring.

Estonian officials said Tallinn summoned a Russian diplomat to protest the incident and initiated consultations among NATO allies under Article 4, which allows members to confer whenever territorial integrity, political independence, or security is threatened.

**Polish and Allied Aircraft Scrambled**

Poland’s Operational Command reported that Polish and allied aircraft were deployed overnight in response to Russian long-range airstrikes in neighbouring Ukraine. The operation was described as preventive and aimed at securing airspace near the threatened zones.

Polish jets have frequently patrolled the country’s airspace in connection with Russian attacks on Ukraine. Last week, Romania deployed two F-16 jets to intercept a drone that briefly entered its airspace.

**Zelenskyy Seeks to Finalise Security Guarantees in New York Meetings**

President Zelenskyy said Ukraine and its partners have laid the groundwork for long-term security guarantees. He hopes to gauge progress during next week’s meetings in New York.

He added that European nations are ready to move forward with a framework if the United States remains closely engaged, with ongoing discussions among military leadership and general staffs in Europe and the US.

“I would like to receive signals for myself on how close we are to understanding that the security guarantees from all partners will be the kind we need,” Zelenskyy said.

He stressed that sanctions against Russia must remain in place if peace efforts stall and stated he would press the issue with President Trump.

“If the war continues and there is no movement toward peace, we expect sanctions,” he said, adding that Trump is seeking strong steps from Europe.

NASCAR legend Kurt Busch shares explanation about 23XI Racing’s new tire plan

Kurt Busch Shares Insights on 23XI Racing’s Tire Strategy for New Hampshire Race

Kurt Busch recently provided details about 23XI Racing’s tire strategy ahead of this week’s NASCAR race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway. The 2004 NASCAR Cup Series champion explained that the team conducted a 40-lap practice session to analyze the new Goodyear Racing Eagle tires—a process known within the sport as a “decode.”

Although Busch no longer competes as a driver for 23XI Racing, he now serves as a mentor and consultant for the Toyota-backed team co-owned by six-time NBA champion Michael Jordan. Currently, the organization fields three full-time entries: Bubba Wallace in the #23, Riley Herbst in the #35, and Tyler Reddick in the #45.

This weekend, NASCAR will utilize the same Goodyear tire package recently run at tracks including Bowman Gray Stadium, Martinsville Speedway, North Wilkesboro Speedway, and Richmond Raceway. The soft compound tires are designed to provide extra grip but come with quicker performance fall-off. This dynamic sets up intriguing tire strategies throughout the 301-lap race.

“Any time a new tire’s brought to a track, it’s called a ‘decode,’” Busch explained. “Our cars did a 40-lap run because they want a good read on the tires and brakes.”

Busch is no stranger to the 1.058-mile oval in Loudon, New Hampshire, where he has earned three NASCAR Cup Series victories. He scored back-to-back wins with Roush Racing in 2004 and added another triumph with Penske Racing (now Team Penske) in 2008.

In addition to supporting the team, the 47-year-old Busch has been named grand marshal for the Mobil 1 301, scheduled for September 21 at 2:00 p.m. ET. The race will kick off the Round of 12 in the playoffs, where two 23XI Racing drivers remain contenders: Bubba Wallace and Tyler Reddick.

Wallace currently sits eighth in the playoff standings with just a one-point buffer, while Reddick is 12th, narrowly three points below the cutoff line. A strong finish at Loudon could quickly catapult Reddick near the top of the leaderboard.

Kurt Busch Updates on His Roles at New Hampshire

Kurt Busch posted on X (formerly Twitter) that he is at New Hampshire Motor Speedway both to fulfill his grand marshal duties and to support 23XI Racing. He also shared a humorous story about the “Loudon the Lobster” trophy.

In 2008, Busch earned the very first Loudon the Lobster trophy, unique to this race. He attempted to donate the original trophy to the Boston Aquarium, but the track is now gifting him a replica instead.

Busch wrote on social media:
“Headed to (New Hampshire Motor Speedway) this weekend to cover grand marshal duties and to support (23XI Racing). In ’08, I was able to capture the 1st ever Loudon the Lobster trophy. The track is gifting me a replica because I tried to donate mine to the Boston Aquarium.”

Before taking on his mentorship role with 23XI Racing, Busch drove the #45 Toyota during the 2022 season. Unfortunately, a crash at Pocono Raceway sidelined him, leading to his official retirement announcement the following year.

As older brother to two-time NASCAR Cup Series champion Kyle Busch (#8 Richard Childress Racing driver), Kurt continues to make a significant impact in the sport through his experience and guidance.

Stay tuned for race weekend updates as 23XI Racing battles for playoff position at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

Leaving Hamas in power would be a cowardly betrayal of the Israeli people – opinion

**Leaving Hamas in Power Would Be a Cowardly Betrayal of the Israeli People**

As the Israel-Hamas war drags on, those who have sacrificed in the conflict are growing increasingly frustrated with both Israeli and US officials. Many believe that allowing Hamas to remain in power is not only unacceptable but also a betrayal of the Israeli people who have endured tremendous hardship.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) continue their operations in the Gaza Strip, aiming to dismantle Hamas’s capabilities and protect Israeli civilians. For example, on September 19, 2025, the IDF intensified their efforts as part of this ongoing campaign. *(Photo credit: IDF Spokesperson’s Unit)*

This prolonged conflict highlights the urgent need for decisive action. Leaving Hamas unchecked could empower a group responsible for consistent attacks against Israel, undermining the safety and future of its citizens.

Australian singer quits Russia’s Eurovision alternative

Intervision, the Russian alternative to the Eurovision Song Contest, has kicked off in Moscow with a message from President Vladimir Putin. He emphasized that the event promotes the preservation of cultural identity. “Respect for traditional values and the diversity of cultures is the fundamental idea of the competition and inspires participants to achieve artistic heights,” Putin stated.

The musical competition features 23 countries and is being held at the Live Arena concert hall in Moscow, with an audience of approximately 11,000 spectators, according to the organizers.

Shortly before the performance of Australian-born singer Vasiliki Karagiorgos, known as Vassy, who was set to represent the United States, the hosts announced her withdrawal from the contest. The organizers, confirming that Vassy holds US citizenship, attributed her removal to alleged “unprecedented political pressure from the Australian government.”

Vassy was originally a replacement candidate after the initially announced US entrant, musician B Howard (Brandon Howard), withdrew on Wednesday due to “unforeseen family reasons.”

Russia’s state-run Channel One is broadcasting the three-and-a-half-hour show. The winner will be decided by an international jury composed of representatives from the participating countries. These include former Soviet republics such as Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan, as well as Russia’s allies within the BRICS group—China, India, Brazil, and South Africa.

Unlike Eurovision, Intervision does not allow public voting. Russia has been barred from participating in Eurovision since 2022, following its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

Intervision is widely seen as President Putin’s conservative counter-project to Eurovision. Reflecting this stance, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov remarked, “There will be no perversions or mockery of human nature.”

Report Alleges George Soros Doled Out $80 Million To Leftist Groups Glorifying Terrorism

**Billionaire George Soros Allegedly Funneled Over $80 Million to Groups Praising Terrorism or Urging Protest Violence, Report Claims**

A new report by the Capital Research Center alleges that billionaire megadonor George Soros has channeled more than $80 million to organizations that praised terrorists or encouraged protest violence in the United States. According to the report, Soros, through his Open Society Foundations, has distributed tens of millions of dollars to groups engaging in or endorsing actions that meet the FBI’s definition of domestic terrorism.

The revelations come amid ongoing investigations into left-wing organizations potentially linked to the September 10 murder of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University.

### Funding Controversial Groups

Since 2020, the Open Society Foundations have reportedly provided $400,000 to the Center for Third World Organizing, a group noted by the Capital Research Center for its involvement in street protests during the George Floyd riots. The Center has consolidated various radical groups, including the Ruckus Society, whose founders and training materials reportedly endorse tactics that may be illegal.

The network also includes the BlackOUT Collective, co-author of a pro-Hamas guide that glorifies the October 7 attacks and references a Ruckus Society manual promoting tactics such as property destruction and blockades.

Other significant contributions include $1,850,000 to Dream Defenders and $18 million to Movement for Black Lives. The latter collaborated with the BlackOUT Collective to produce the pro-Hamas guide.

Additionally, Soros’s foundations have given $200,000 to Dissenters, another co-author of the guide. Dissenters is listed as an endorser of the Shut It Down for Palestine coalition, which reportedly praises shutting down highways and bridges and targets Israeli arms producers.

### Affiliations with Tax Resistance and Radical Coalitions

Shut It Down for Palestine partners with the National War Tax Resistance Coordinating Committee, a group that promotes illegal tax avoidance linked to U.S. defense activities. A spokesperson for the National War Tax Resistance Coordinating Committee confirmed to the Daily Caller News Foundation that the group advises activists on avoiding paying some taxes to the IRS to avoid funding national security activities but refrained from further comment on the report.

The Sunrise Movement, another recipient of at least $2 million from the Open Society Foundations, promoted the Stop Cop City/Defend the Atlanta Forest coalition. This coalition has been connected to Antifa-associated anarchist terrorism, with dozens of members facing domestic terrorism and racketeering charges for arson, property destruction, and assaults on law enforcement.

Sunrise also encouraged donations to the Atlanta Solidarity Fund, which prosecutors allege provided bail, legal defense, and materials such as ammunition, drones, and surveillance equipment.

### Responses and Statements

Requests for comment from the Center for Third World Organizing, Ruckus Society, BlackOUT Collective, Dream Defenders, Movement for Black Lives, Dissenters, Sunrise Movement, and the Stop Cop City/Defend the Atlanta Forest coalition went unanswered. The Shut It Down for Palestine coalition also could not be reached for comment.

A spokesperson for the Open Society Foundations told the Daily Caller News Foundation, “The Open Society Foundations does not fund terrorism. Our activities are peaceful and lawful, and our grantees are expected to abide by human rights principles and be in compliance with the law. Our work is solely dedicated to strengthening American democracy and upholding the fundamental freedoms enshrined in the U.S. Constitution.”

### Political Reactions

Former President Donald Trump has publicly called for federal racketeering charges against George Soros and his son, Alex. In an August post on Truth Social, Trump wrote, “George Soros, and his wonderful Radical Left son, should be charged with RICO because of their support of Violent Protests, and much more, all throughout the United States of America. Soros, and his group of psychopaths, have caused great damage to our Country!”

Following the assassination of Charlie Kirk—which investigators are probing as a politically motivated attack—dozens of House Republicans have demanded the formation of a select committee to investigate “the money, influence, and power behind the radical Left’s assault on America and the rule of law.”

President Biden also announced the designation of Antifa as a major terrorist organization, labeling the far-left group a “sick, dangerous, radical Left disaster” and urging investigations into its financial backers.

UF Rescinds Emeritus Status for Professor Over Kirk Facebook Post

The University of Florida rescinded a retired professor’s emeritus status on Friday over a controversial Facebook post made on the evening of Charlie Kirk’s death. The post had sparked significant backlash on social media.

The university announced on social media that a retired faculty member, who issued a post causing concern, had lost their emeritus status. However, in a follow-up, the university did not confirm to the Florida Phoenix the identity of the professor involved.

The Gainesville Sun later reported that the professor in question is Jeffrey Harrison, a retired UF law professor. On his public Facebook profile, Harrison posted on the night of Kirk’s death:

> “There is a lot of commentary about Charlie Kirk. It’s not that complicated. He was an evil person spouting all kinds of hateful messages. I did not want him to die. I reserve that wish for Trump. But let’s face it, even members of the Gestapo and guards at the concentration camps had children. That does not make them heroes, nor does it make Charlie Kirk someone to be admired.”

At the time the Florida Phoenix began writing their story, the post was still publicly visible. However, before publication and after a reporter reached out to Harrison for an interview, his Facebook profile disappeared.

Conservative activist Scott Presler, who has 2.3 million followers on X (formerly Twitter), called on Thursday for the university to sever all ties with the professor and remove any current duties he might have at UF.

Also on Thursday, Harrison posted a statement in response to the backlash:

> “I am getting a lot of hateful commentary about a recent post in which I did not want Charlie Kirk to die but it would be fine with me if Trump did. The latter sentiment I have seen on Facebook scores of times. This avalanche of hate came after someone reposted my original post on X. This leads me to ask if X has gone over, even more than Facebook, to Trumpers?”

This subsequent post is also no longer publicly accessible.

According to University of Florida regulations, emeritus status is conferred in recognition of meritorious service and includes continued campus courtesies such as parking privileges, use of library and recreational facilities, admission to athletic and cultural events, receipt of faculty publications, participation in contracts and grants, and attendance at academic convocations. Following the incident, Harrison’s name was removed from the Levin College of Law’s list of emeritus faculty.

Harrison previously wrote a guest column in The Gainesville Sun in 2022 criticizing UF administrators for what he described as their deference to Governor Ron DeSantis.

This rescinding of emeritus status comes amid warnings from Florida Education Commissioner Anastasios Kamoutsas and State University System Chancellor Ray Rodrigues, who have promised accountability for educators celebrating or excusing campus violence.

The University of Miami, Florida Atlantic University, and now the University of Florida have all been under scrutiny for professors’ social media posts following Kirk’s death. Several K-12 teachers have also faced investigations, as previously reported by the Florida Phoenix.

On Friday, Miami-Dade public schools confirmed to the Florida Phoenix that they have received five allegations against employees regarding inappropriate conduct on social media or in the classroom related to Charlie Kirk’s death. These allegations are currently under investigation, according to the district.

Madhya Pradesh Transco: Capacitor Banks At 412 Substations Ensuring Quality Power

**MP Transco Enhances Power Quality Across Madhya Pradesh with Capacitor Bank Installations**

*Indore (Madhya Pradesh)*: To ensure quality power supply to electricity consumers, the Madhya Pradesh Power Transmission Company (MP Transco) has installed capacitor banks at the majority of its extra high tension (EHT) substations. Out of the company’s 417 substations, capacitor banks of various capacities are currently operational at 412 locations.

In addition, at older substations, new capacitor banks are being installed wherever necessary, along with enhancements to existing capacities. Energy Minister Pradyuman Singh Tomar stated that these efforts will help provide electricity consumers in the state with stable, standard voltage power supply.

### Robust Installed Capacity of 9,278.5 MVAR

Presently, MP Transco operates:

– 32 capacitor banks at the 145 kV level in 220 kV substations
– 719 capacitor banks at the 36 kV level in 132 kV substations

In total, MP Transco manages 751 capacitor banks with a combined installed capacity of **9,278.5 MVAR**, significantly contributing to the delivery of high-quality power at standard voltage levels across Madhya Pradesh.

### Upgrading Aging Capacitor Banks

Amar Kirti Saxena, Chief Engineer at MP Transco, mentioned that the company has identified 52 old capacitor banks which have surpassed their service life and no longer meet the required capacitive load. These substations require capacitor banks with higher MVAR capacity.

To address this, MP Transco has launched a campaign to replace these outdated units with enhanced-capacity capacitor banks, ensuring all substations consistently supply power of reliable quality and standard voltage.

### Benefits of Capacitor Banks in Power Transmission

Power transformers at Extra High Tension substations commonly experience inductive loads from devices such as irrigation pumps and household appliances. This inductive load causes voltage drops and adversely affects power quality.

Capacitor banks counteract this issue by providing capacitive load, which balances the inductive effects. This results in an improved power factor and ensures consumers receive reliable electricity at the desired standard voltage.

### Capacitor Banks in Indore’s EHV Substations

MP Transco transmits electricity in Indore through Extra High Voltage (EHV) substations operating at 400 kV, 220 kV, and 132 kV levels. These include:

– One 400 kV substation
– Four 220 kV substations: South Zone, Indore East Bicholi, Manglia, and Jaitpura
– Seven 132 kV substations: Rau, Satyasai, Electronics Complex, Niranjanpur, Mahalaxmi Nagar GIS, Indore West (Navadapanth), Chambal, and Pologround

To maintain quality power supply at standard voltage across these substations, capacitor banks have been installed as per requirements, with a total installed capacity of **319.5 MVAR** in Indore’s EHV substations.

—

These ongoing upgrades underscore MP Transco’s commitment to delivering dependable and quality electricity to consumers throughout Madhya Pradesh.
