Ukraine announces the dismantling of a subversive group that wanted to take Parliament

The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) announced today the dismantling of a subversive group that had called a public event in the capital with the aim of overthrowing the Ukrainian civil and military authorities and taking the Supreme Rada building (Parliament).

An indeterminate number of people have been arrested for their participation in the conspiracy, according to the SBU.

“According to the investigation, in May and June 2024 a group of people distributed messages on social networks discrediting the current leadership of the State, calling for changes in the constitutional order and the seizure of power in Ukraine2, reads a statement from the Ukrainian Prosecutor’s Office, which has also reported the dismantling of the group.

According to the Prosecutor’s Office, the leaders of the group had called various public events for June 30, when Ukraine celebrates Constitution Day. The organizers did not reveal their coup intentions in the calls.

In addition to taking Parliament, the idea of these supposed subversives was to elect a new “interim government” in these public acts.

The main organizer of the event is, according to the Prosecutor’s Office, the leader of an organization that “has experience in participating in provocative acts that have not yielded results.” The Prosecutor’s Office does not provide more details about the identity of this person or about the organization he leads.

“He had rented a room with capacity for two thousand people and had also sought military personnel and armed guards from private structures to carry out the seizure of power,” says the Prosecutor’s Office about how he prepared the alleged attempt.

According to this source, the organizer had accomplices in the regions of Dnipropetrovsk (center) and Kiev and had tried unsuccessfully to attract an oenegé from the Ivano-Frankivsk region (west) to the preparations.

Four people are being investigated in Ivano-Frankivsk for distributing material with calls for the violent overthrow of constitutional order in Ukraine. Two of them are deprived of liberty on a preventive basis, according to the Prosecutor’s Office.

On the other hand, Russia expressed its concern about the concentration of Ukrainian troops next to the Belarusian border, denounced by the Belarusian military command.

“This causes concern not only in Minsk, but also in Moscow. Well, we are really partners and allies,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskov said at his daily telephone press conference.

The president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, for his part, asked in his speech to the nation last night for more “bold decisions” from his Western allies to reduce Russian airstrikes such as the one that on Sunday killed one person and injured ten others in the city of Kharkov.

Ukraine has repeatedly asked in recent weeks for more freedom of action to use Western weapons against targets within the Russian Federation to neutralize at the origin of Russian attacks from the other side of the border. One of Kiev’s claims is that it is allowed to use long-range missiles to destroy planes on Russian airfields.

Last month, the United States and other Kiev partners allowed Ukraine to attack military infrastructures located in Russian territory near the border that Russia uses to attack regions such as Kharkov, in northeastern Ukraine.

Ukraine asks its allies for long-range missiles to attack air bases within Russia, and more Patriot systems and other types of longer-range missile systems to keep enemy planes that launch these bombs away from their targets.

On the other hand, Russian anti-aircraft defense systems shot down a total of 18 Ukrainian fixed-winged drones last night over the Kursk and Belgorod regions, both bordering Ukraine, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported on Monday on its Telegram channel.

In addition, the Russian Army took two Ukrainian localities in the Kharkov and Donetsk regions, in the east of the country, as reported by the Russian Ministry of Defense in its daily war report.

Seven bodies found with signs of torture in Sinaloa

Mexican authorities discovered seven lifeless bodies on Wednesday, showing clear signs of torture, in the rural area of Culiacán, Sinaloa, just one day after the same number of bodies was found in several municipalities in the western state of Mexico.

Six of these seven victims were found along the side of the highway that connects Culiacán to Mazatlán, near Laguna de Canachi, according to local media reports, which also noted that messages addressed to a criminal group were found near the bodies.

This brings the total number of violent deaths in the region to seven within just 24 hours. On Tuesday, authorities reported more victims found in the municipalities of Culiacán, Elota, and Mazatlán.

Among the victims identified was a local cattle rancher named Ramón Velázquez Ontiveros, as well as a police officer from Mazatlán, who was killed by a motorcyclist outside his home in San Marcos.

Málaga paralyzed by new storm as torrential rains hit Spain

Thousands of people were evacuated and trains were suspended as torrential rains once again struck Spain on Wednesday, following the devastating floods that killed at least 223 people two weeks ago, most of them in the Valencia region.

The national meteorological agency (Aemet) issued a maximum, red-level alert for the Andalusian province of Málaga in the south, and for Tarragona in the northeast, due to the new DANA (isolated depression at high levels), also known as a cold drop.

The city of Málaga appeared to be the hardest hit by the rains, with more than 3,000 people evacuated from 1,000 homes near rivers, flooded streets, and the suspension of urban transport and train services to Madrid.

“Today Málaga is paralyzed,” said Andalusia’s regional president, Juan Manuel Moreno, to reporters. “I know it is a problem for citizens not being able to take their children to school or go to work, but after what we saw in Valencia, we need to ‘prevent’ and minimize the impact in terms of loss of life,” he added.

The storm also led to the postponement of a match between Spain and Poland in the Billie Jean King Cup women’s tennis competition, which was scheduled for Wednesday afternoon in Málaga.

Hezbollah launches explosive drone strike on Israel’s defense headquarters

The Lebanese Islamist movement Hezbollah claimed on Wednesday that it launched an attack with explosive drones against the Israeli army’s headquarters in Tel Aviv.

The Iran-backed organization reported in a statement that it had carried out “an aerial attack with a squadron of explosive drones” targeting the site that houses Israel’s main defense institutions.

Hezbollah later stated that it also fired a barrage of rockets at the Glilot military intelligence base in the suburbs of Tel Aviv.

The Israeli military indicated that “sirens sounded in several areas of northern and central Israel following the launch of projectiles from Lebanon.”

It later clarified that “five projectiles were identified over the territory, and some were intercepted.”
