Surveillance footage shows how JFK stowaway Svetlana Dali slipped past TSA
The unhinged Russian stowaway who snuck onto a Paris-bound flight at JFK Airport last year gained access to the plane by blending in with a group of passengers and sneaking past two distracted gate agents, new video captured. Svetlana Dali, 57, was spotted on surveillance footage as she navigated past several security checkpoints before boarding the Delta jet at the Queens airport on Nov. 26, 2024. Dali was waved through a security screening checkpoint before a female TSA agent conducted a quick body pat-down and allowed the woman through to the terminal, according to video from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and obtained by the Associated Press.

Moscow temporarily closes airports as Ukraine targets Russia with drones
June 8 (UPI) -- Ukraine targeted Russia with another drone strike on Sunday, causing two airports serving Moscow and a third nearby to temporarily close. Russia's Federal Agency for Air Transport said in a statement that restrictions had been put in place and later lifted at Moscow's Vnukovo and Domodedovo airports, as well as at the Kaluga airport about a hundred miles southwest of the capital. "The restrictions were introduced to ensure the safety of civil aircraft flights," the agency said. Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin said on Telegram that Russia had shot down multiple drones that had flown towards the city overnight. "Emergency services specialists are working at the site of the falling debris," Sobyanin said. The Russian Defense Ministry said on Telegram that it intercepted and destroyed 61 Ukrainian drones over the Moscow region and the regions of Bryansk, Belgorod, Kaluga, Tula, Orel, Kursk, and Crimea. It later said another three were destroyed over the Belgorod, Bryansk and Tula regions. The strikes came after Tula regional governor Dmitry Milyaev said on Telegram on Saturday that a drone crashed into the Azot chemical plant in Novomoskovsk and caused a fire, which was later put out. He said two people had been injured. Andriy Kovalenko, the head of the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council's Counter-Disinformation Center, said on Telegram that the Azot plant "is one of the key links in the Russian military-industrial complex." "It is here that explosives are manufactured, including TNT, which is used in artillery shells, aircraft bombs and missiles," Kovalenko alleged. "After the start of the full-scale invasion of Russia, the enterprise was put on wartime mode. Azot works closely with companies that manufacture shells, UAV hulls, and remote mining equipment." Meanwhile, Russia praised the efforts of its own drone strikes Sunday, saying on Telegram that it had used drones to strike a MaxxPro armored vehicle operated by "Ukrainian militants" in the South Donetsk direction as well as to destroy an ammunition depot and in the Zaporizhia region. On Saturday, Russia conducted a large-scale attack on the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv, killing multiple people as the death toll continued to grow, according to Kharkiv Mayor Igor Terekhov. The latest escalations in the war come amid a stalled prisoner exchange deal. Both sides have blamed each other for delays in reaching a deal.

"One of the best": Ukrainian drone operator Kateryna "Meow" Troian killed in action
Kateryna "Meow" Troian, a first-person view drone operator with the 82nd Separate Air Assault Brigade, has been killed in action on the Pokrovsk front in Donetsk Oblast. Source: Olena Kondratiuk, Deputy Speaker of the Ukrainian Parliament Details: Kateryna joined the Ukrainian Armed Forces less than two years ago and carried out missions in the operational zone in Russia's Kursk Oblast and in Ukraine's Donetsk Oblast. During her service, Meow completed over a thousand successful drone sorties. Kondratiuk said that she and Ambassador Valerii Zaluzhnyi had shared Kateryna's story with members of the UK Parliament just a week earlier, during the opening of the photo exhibition Women Defending Ukraine. Kateryna was killed on the Pokrovsk front at the age of 32. Her brother-in-arms, Sashko Shershun, expressed his condolences and shared memories of her. Quote from Saskho: "There are fewer and fewer truly great people... We never saw you give up. You were never afraid to ask questions and you were always ready to learn, teach and help. You endured guided bomb attacks, artillery and mortar barrages and enemy FPV drone strikes with us. You were one of the best in your element." More details: Another comrade, Valentyn Dembitskyi, called Kateryna "both a brave person and a skilled warrior" with whom he had withstood numerous Russian attacks and completed many complex missions. "Meow came to war to become a true expert," he said. "We will remember her as a teammate who genuinely cared – the most important quality. "She came to war as an equal," he added. "We knew her as a person with an open heart and no arrogance. She was always ready to help and never hesitated to ask for help herself." Kateryna's friends have launched a fundraiser to support her family. Background: Earlier, paramedic Mariia-Khrystyna "Alpaca" Dvoinyk was also killed in action defending Ukraine. She was fatally injured while on her way to evacuate a wounded soldier. Support Ukrainska Pravda on Patreon!
