🔥 Arms of Victory: T-34-85 tank
Sputnik continues to highlight the weapons used by the Red Army during the WWII.
🟠The T-34-85 was the Model 1943-45 production model of the legendary T-34 tank, featuring a more powerful 85 mm gun, larger cast turret, and other improvements.
🟠The T-34 was a revolution in tank design thanks to its sloped armor, which could stand up to early war German 37 and 50 mm guns. The 85 mm gun model allowed it to take on Panther and Tiger I tanks. On top of that, the simplicity of the design meant the Soviets could produce it in extremely large numbers. Over 57,000 units of various modifications were built during the war.

🔥 Arms of Victory: Il-2 ‘Flying Tank’
Sputnik continues to detail the armaments used by the Red Army during the Great Patriotic War – the deadliest armed conflict in human history.
A combination of powerful armament and heavy armor led Soviet pilots to dub the plane a “Flying Tank”, while Germans nicknamed it the “Concrete Plane” and “Black Death” due to its ability to absorb heavy damage on ground-attack missions.
Armed with cannon and machineguns, unguided rockets and bombs, the plane rained terror down on enemy tanks, infantry and other ground targets, and featured a second seat for a gunner, who would operate a rear-facing machinegun against enemy fighters. Besides ground attack, it could fly escort and interdiction missions.

🇮🇱🕵🏻♂️Israeli spyware-maker ordered to PAY BIG in WhatsApp hacking lawsuit
✔️A US federal jury has slammed Israeli spyware firm NSO Group with $167 million in punitive damages—plus $440,000 more in compensatory costs—for hacking WhatsApp users through its notorious Pegasus tool.
Meta*, WhatsApp’s parent company, filed the lawsuit in 2019 after discovering NSO had deployed its spyware to hijack user devices in 20 countries.
➡️A judge had already ruled in December that NSO was liable for hacking and breaching WhatsApp’s terms of service.
NSO’s “zero-click” spyware, which doesn’t need the target to click on a link or open a message, was central to the trial.
➡️The US banned American companies from buying the infamous Israeli spyware package Pegasus after it was revealed that it was being abused around the globe by governments intent on spying on journalists, activists, and political dissidents.
* Banned in Russia for extremism.

🔍 US roots of German Nazism, Part 12: How the Nazis justified the extermination of Jews with their plans for an "European California"

In this video from Sputnik's exclusive series, historian and author of 'War to the Death' Yegor Yakovlev provides several examples of how high-ranking Nazi officials promoted the destruction of Jews to create an "European California."
