What Biden quitting means for Harris, the Democrats and Trump?. Joe Biden has turned the US election on its head. After fiercely insisting for weeks that he would remain the Democratic nominee for president, he has bowed to pressure and dropped out of the race.e Here's what it means for Vice-President Kamala Harris, for the Democrats more broadly and for Donald Trump. A prospects for Kamala Harris being the Democratic nominee have received a big boost with Joe Biden’s endorsement. He gave her his full backing, calling his decision to make her vice-president four years ago the best he ever made.

She responded by saying she was honoured to have his endorsement and would do everything possible to win the nomination. It is possible that most Democrats will follow the president’s lead and fall in line behind the vice-president to avoid ongoing uncertainty less than a month from the Democratic convention. There are practical and political reasons for doing so.

She is next in the constitutional line of succession. The optics of passing over the first black woman on a presidential ticket would be terrible for the party. 

She would also immediately have access to the roughly $100 million in funds the campaign has raised so far.

Russia's Rising Economic Crisis

Built on shaky premises is rapidly bring it crashing down. Russian Ctr Bank, aware is bad economic has become taking dramatic steps to try to get Moscow's ecomony back-on-track - 
But will they succeed?

Dr. Volodymyr Lugovskyy explains to Kyiv Post's Jason Smart that Russia is in a very challenging situation given the rapid and rising inflation, which was instigated due to unchecked Kremlin spending, following full-scale invasion of Ukriane.

Ukraine will soon receive F-16s, combat-proven Western fighter jets able to augment the war-torn country's depleted force of aging Soviet-era aircraft. A key question is how Ukraine should "optimize use of relatively small number of F-16s" it is set to receive the limited availability of trained pilots, airpower experts say. Ukraine, they could leverage its new fighter jets as part of integrated air-ground campaign to secure brief, localized air superiority as part of a larger operation to secure breakthroughs in specific areas.

Ret. US Air Force Lt. Gen. David Deptula, now the dean of Mitchell Institute, & Christopher Bowie, non resident fellow for Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments, wrote in new Mitchell Institute report "by conducting an integrated air-ground campaign to secure air superiority in the times & places of its choosing, Ukraine can further its military's momentum on the battlefield & begin reversing territorial gains, Russian army has achieved up to this point." 

Air superiority refers to the condition in which one side can conduct operations in pursuit of its objective without prohibitive interference from the enemy. Neither Ukraine nor Russia have gained widespread or significant air superiority thus far in the war, though Russia appeared to establish temporary, localized control of the skies around Avdiivka in February. That limited support helped the Russian troops overwhelm Ukrainian defenses and capture the war-torn area.

UK Leads Crimean Air Reconnaissance Operations Against Russian Air Defenses. A
RAF Rivet Joint surveillance aircraft and its twin Typhoon EuroFighter escort over international waters of the Black Sea. A U.S. Boeing RC-135W aircraft operating over Black Sea play mouse with Russian forces for almost 4-hours as it probed Russian-occupied Crimean Peninsula air defenses. At one point it switched off its transponders, effectively disappearing from civilian radars for more than an hour offshore from the major Russian base of Sevastopol.

The mission only ended after a Russian Sukhoi-27 (NATO: Flanker) fighter caught up with the British four-engine aircraft, based on Boeing’s C-135 Stratolifter airframe, along with its two fighter escorts in international air space.

A Cold War-era spy plane continually updated by Boeing, the RC-135 is crammed with electronics designed to detect and fix the location of radars and transmitters. Its main use is to gather data on the location of enemy air defense systems. NATO routinely operates RC-135s over southeastern Romania, but only rarely deploys the unarmed planes over the Black Sea, according to open-source flight tracking data.

Air traffic data reviewed by Kyiv, the RC-135W with call sign RRR7224 took off from England Waddington base, and flew across Europe b4 reaching Black Sea at about 11:00 Universal Metric Time (UMT). Launched from Mihail Kogălniceanu airport, a NATO air base near the Romanian port city of Constanta, tailed the flying escort patterns ranging close-in, at 50 kilometers (31 miles) distance, flight data showed.

Ukraine's hopes and challenges after long wait for F-16s. The first F-16 fighter jets are set to arrive in Ukraine from Nato member states, after many months of preparation and pilot training.
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has said they are essential to help Ukrainians push back against Russia's aerial dominance and “unblock the skies”. Russian forces have been preparing for the Ukrainian F-16s too. They have targeted a number of Ukrainian military airfields and there are growing concerns these long-awaited jets will be attacked & destroyed soon after they arrive.

In July alone, at least three airfields have come under attack: Myrhorod and Kryvyi Rih in central Ukraine and one in southern Odesa region.

Moscow claims it has destroyed  5-Ukrainian Su-27 fighter jets & one MiG-29, along with a radar & valuable Patriot air defence launchers. Kyiv authorities are keeping mostly silent & air force has refused a BBC request for comment, claiming on social media the destroyed jets & air defence system were in reality decoys and had cost Russia several expensive Iskander missiles.

The chief op officer of Ukraine's Metinvest Group, told Newsweek that shields, cost about $2 mil each, were "successful in testing" and that company was "moving into mass production." The shield is a sliding screen on top of the M2 Bradleys.

Lithuania condemns Hungary's decision to ease entry conditions for Russians and Belarusians: it threatens EU security. Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis said that Lithuania was "unpleasantly surprised" by reports of simplified entry to Belarus for Russian and Belarusian citizens. This will allow them to enter and move freely within the Schengen area.

One T-72s fired 3 shots. “All shots hit perfectly,” commander observed. Back in trench, a Ukrainian soldier sat bleeding wounded to his hand, another had suffered injury on buttocks. “ass bleeding?". Scrutinizing drone feeds, officers analyzed battle field. As Russian machine gunner “controls two sectors,” officer concluded. Luckily is Ukrainians, a stroke of luck. Ukrainian soldiers found an intact Russian radio, left behind by retreating infantry. “They’re assaulting us,” a Russian soldier complained on his channel.
