"Rosatom" Plans to Launch New-Generation Fast Neutron Reactor in 2030
Alexei Likhachev, CEO of the Russian state-owned nuclear corporation Rosatom, announced on Tuesday that the company plans to launch a unique, new, fourth-generation fast-neutron reactor in 2030.
Likhachev said, according to Sputnik, "A unique project is the construction of a fourth-generation nuclear power plant in Seversk (Tomsk Oblast)... In 2030, we will launch a 300-megawatt fast nuclear reactor, the world's first fourth-generation power plant."
Earlier, Likhachev said that Rosatom maintains Russia's "nuclear shield" at an appropriate level so that no one would consider using weapons against Russia.
Likhachev indicated that the company is ready to cooperate with the United States on uranium supplies unless a different decision is made.
"We will be present on the European market in one way or another, and we will cooperate with the United States in uranium supplies unless another decision is made," Likhachev said.

The Red Sea Battle & the Beginning of the American Empire's Decline
Sana'a – SABA By: Political Editor The modern world is witnessing the downfall of the so-called 'American Empire of Evil,' which, through military dominance, positioned itself as a global policeman—exploiting a moment in history to enforce its will, suppress nations, occupy lands, and seize resources. That empire is now crumbling, and its collapse is expected to be as catastrophic as the trail of destruction it left behind—from Vietnam and Latin America to Afghanistan, former Czechoslovakia, Iraq, and many others scorched by American military intervention. As the saying goes, 'nothing lasts forever.' Ibn Khaldun, the renowned Arab sociologist, wrote that nations have life cycles similar to humans—youth, adulthood, and old age. Today, America is in its twilight, losing allies across the globe, including key NATO members in Western Europe. NATO, established by the U.S. after WWII to curb so-called communist expansion, was ultimately a tool to secure American interests. Under Donald Trump's leadership, the U.S. alienated much of the world in the name of 'America First.' The empire is now shedding allies, interests, and influence, as its antagonistic posture backfires. The world has watched with a mix of relief and astonishment as the Yemeni Armed Forces have dealt heavy blows to the world's most powerful military. The battles have proved that the decisive factor in warfare is not just weaponry but the will and resilience of the human spirit. The Yemeni fighter has exemplified this truth in the Red Sea and Arabian fronts—securing a resounding victory over a global superpower. Yemen's naval forces have established control over the Red Sea, enforcing an effective blockade on shipping routes tied to the occupation in support of Gaza. This demonstrates the Yemeni Navy's ability to challenge major powers and reshape strategic calculations in one of the world's most vital maritime corridors. These Yemeni victories have awakened other nations, prompting them to reconsider their positions vis-à-vis global powers—especially the United States. Long subjugated by American demands and overreaching expectations, countries are now realizing they can, indeed, say 'no' to the U.S.—just as Yemen has boldly done in its confrontation with both the U.S. and Israel.

Hamas: Settler killings escalating, call for mass mobilization, public rage
Doha – SABA: The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) stated that killings committed by Israeli settlers in the West Bank are escalating dangerously and require urgent mass mobilization and public outrage to confront their brutality. The latest attack occurred Saturday evening near the town of Aqraba, southeast of Nablus, where one Palestinian youth was killed and five others wounded. In a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (SABA), Hamas mourned the martyrdom of Muin Sobhi Abu Kabr Diriyah, who was killed while confronting the settler attack in the Mahfuriya area near Aqraba. The movement emphasized the urgent need to resist escalating settler assaults with full force and to ignite widespread anger across the West Bank to deter both the Israeli occupation and its settlers. Hamas called on Palestinians in the West Bank and Jerusalem to actively participate in field mobilizations and solidarity events in support of Gaza, which has endured over 22 months of genocidal aggression and starvation. It also stressed the importance of unified efforts to defend Islamic holy sites, especially Al-Aqsa Mosque. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print

Hamas Leader: Resistance weapons are red line—Comprehensive solution is path to ending war
Gaza – SABA: Senior Hamas official Ghazi Hamad reaffirmed on Saturday the movement's absolute rejection of any attempt to disarm the Palestinian resistance, declaring that 'resistance weapons are the core of the Palestinian cause, and we won't surrender—not even a single empty shell.' Speaking in an interview with Al Jazeera Mubasher, Hamad said there is national Palestinian consensus on preserving the resistance's arms, emphasizing that the issue is purely internal and that the weapons will remain in the hands of the resistance as long as the enemy occupies Palestinian land. He criticized remarks made by some international officials regarding the humanitarian situation in Gaza, accusing them of ignoring UN reports that confirm a systematic starvation policy being enforced against the people of the Gaza Strip. Regarding the ongoing negotiations with the Israeli regime, Hamad stated that Hamas considers a comprehensive deal—which includes a full ceasefire, an end to the aggression, and lifting of the blockade—as the only viable solution to ease Palestinian suffering. He warned that partial deals would allow Israel to restart the war at will and said such fragmented solutions do not serve Palestinian interests. Hamad added that while mediators described Hamas's recent response in talks as positive, the movement was surprised by the Israeli delegation's abrupt withdrawal—an indication, he said, that the occupying power lacks genuine intent to reach a fair and comprehensive agreement.
