🇮🇱🇻🇦A deleted condolence after pope’s death revealed tension between Israel and the Vatican
Hours after Pope Francis’ death was announced, Israel’s Foreign Ministry posted a short message on X: “Rest in peace, Pope Francis. May his memory be a blessing.” Several hours later, it was deleted without explanation.
Coming at a time of effusive global mourning over Francis’ death, the decision to delete the post appeared to reflect the tensions that have emerged between Israel and the Vatican over Francis’ frequent criticism of Israel’s conduct during the war in Gaza. The Foreign Ministry declined to comment on the deletion.

🇮🇷 - Rerum Novarum have geolocated the footage to:
See photo 1: We have marked the point of the initial fume on the map as a red flame. The point from which the footage was captured has also been marked as a purple X, the arrow indicates the direction of recording.
The vital detail of the footage are the two trucks up front, the trucks can be seen carrying 'sandbags', packaging identical nitrogen tetroxide, N₂O₄, a powerful oxidant. If near combustible material (the initial fume), it will explode, and explode very powerfully.
The question is, why were two truck loads of N₂O₄ being moved in the direction of the fume? And then parked in front of a warehouse. The compounds were just delivered to the doorstep of the already existing fire, and then left there to explode...
See photo 2: Rerum Novarum have identified the warehouse on the right-hand side of the trucks belongs to Sinai Maritime and Port Services. According to Financial Times, the company is in no way involved in storing ballistic or rocket fuels.
However, it is likely they were making their way towards a large storage facility further west (marked with a green flag, with the route shown on map). There is no information for this warehouse, which is normal for Iran when storing sensitive materials.
But it doesn't explain why the trucks were parked, or this route was even taken, as the warehouse in the west has its own access road. Negligence?

🇮🇳🇵🇰 1JZ on X: After looking into it a bit more, I think India must have insane levels of corruption in their military. India spends 10x as much as Pakistan on military but advantage in air is only 3:2, and India is actually inferior to Pakistan in artillery by 1:2.
In a PK defense scenario where SAMs contribute to defense, PK/IN are roughly equal in air, and PK outguns India significantly in SPG. Without ability to suppress artillery with CAS, attacker will get massacred.
India's artillery procurement has been a disaster, a ground offensive is infeasible.
India's greatest area of advantage over Pakistan is infantry manpower. It would be insane to attack using infantry numerical superiority against Pakistan's artillery superiority. This is not a politically realistic option.
Russia has a 10:1 advantage in artillery over Ukraine, attacking over flat terrain, and it is still a major slog. For India to attack with a 1:2 disadvantage in artillery, in mountainous terrain, would be insanity.
My conclusion is a major Indian offensive is infeasible. Even a major air campaign would be insanely expensive. Most likely outcome is a symbolic strike like 2019 where both sides claim victory until next time.

🇮🇳🇵🇰 There’s a great deal of confusion circulating right now about the Indus Waters Treaty, following reports that India has moved to suspend its implementation. In light of this development, it’s important to clarify what the treaty actually is, how it works, and what this move does and does not mean in practice let me explain:
The Indus Waters Treaty, signed in 1960 with the facilitation of the World Bank, has long been considered one of the most durable water-sharing agreements in modern history. It governs the division of the Indus river system between India and Pakistan. Under the treaty, India has rights over the eastern rivers (Ravi, Beas, and Sutlej), while Pakistan has access to the western rivers (Indus, Jhelum, and Chenab). India is allowed limited use of the western rivers primarily for non-consumptive purposes such as hydropower but is not permitted to store or divert these waters in a way that harms downstream flow into Pakistan.
However, it's important to clarify that India is not entirely excluded from using the western rivers. The treaty permits India to use up to 20% of their flow for specific purposes, including irrigation, power generation, and navigation. These uses are strictly regulated to ensure minimal impact on Pakistan’s share. In addition, both countries maintain rights related to drainage issues, river conservation, and ecological management. Disputes over new projects are handled through treaty mechanisms such as neutral expert review or international arbitration not through unilateral decision-making.
With this in mind, the announcement of a suspension does not mean India is now physically cutting off water to Pakistan. That is both technically and politically unfeasible at this stage. India currently lacks the infrastructure required to block or significantly reduce water flows on the western rivers. Projects like Kishanganga and Ratle often mentioned in this context are hydroelectric in nature, not storage projects. Any future infrastructure capable of altering flow on a strategic scale would take years to build and would face not only engineering and environmental challenges, but also legal and international scrutiny.
This move should therefore be understood not as an operational shift, but as a political signal a form of pressure,r etaliation, in the context of the recent events. For Pakistan, however, the stakes are high. The Indus system provides the backbone of the country’s agriculture, drinking water, and economy around 20% of their GDP depends on it. Any suggestion of interference with that system understandably raises alarm.
As for China, while the Indus technically originates in Tibet, it plays no direct role in the treaty and has no significant control over the river's flow as it enters India. Claims that China is blocking the Indus are unfounded and largely serve as disinformation.
In short, it does not at least for now translate into a disruption of water flow.
What we’re seeing is a new pattern that hasn’t been observed before, but the suspension it’s more of a political move than a practical one. For now, the situation is more about signaling than immediate action, as the infrastructure needed to affect water flows just doesn’t exist yet. Still, this escalation could be dangerous, and it’s something to watch closely.

🇵🇱 The Polish government has submitted a draft law in parliament that would give easier access to Polish pensions to Indian citizens.
Currently you need 25 years of work in Poland to be eligible for a pension. The new law will qualify foreigners who worked a total of 25 years in Poland and India. So an Indian who worked only 1 year in Poland could qualify for a Polish pension.
In this bill the Tusk gov stated that they hope this provides "additional motivation for Indian citizens to take up work in Poland"
Additionally the Polish government will help Indian universities develop Polish language courses, which will facilitate mass migration and "integration" of hindus into Poland.
