Before meeting privately with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Donald Trump praised him as “a great man” leading a strong fight against Russia. Zelensky later described their discussion as very substantive, the best so far. On Truth Social, Trump argued that Ukraine, with European Union and NATO backing, has the chance to reclaim all its original territory, portraying Russia as economically weakened and militarily ineffective after years of war. He characterized Russia’s campaign as “aimless” and damaging to its image, calling it a “paper tiger,” and urged Ukraine to seize the moment. While wishing both nations well, Trump emphasized that the U.S. will keep supplying weapons to NATO, leaving its use to the alliance. #hm #hmintelligence

In The Hague, Dutch police deployed water cannon and tear gas to disperse around 1,500 anti-immigration protesters who blocked a motorway and clashed violently with officers, some protesters threw rocks and bottles, and a police car was set on fire. Thirty people were arrested and two officers injured. Flags associated with far-right groups were visible. The protest was in response to calls for tougher migration policies, including curbs on asylum applications, family reunification, and reception centre construction. Prime Minister Dick Schoof and right-wing leader Geert Wilders both condemned the violence, while opposition parties such as D66 decried the attempts to intimidate political institutions. #hm #hmintelligence

This video posted by "shop_boxphonefarm" on tiktok shows a massive bot farm operation. While it is unclear what this particular farm is being used for, the possibilities are endless.

Fresh footage from Venezuela shows Nicolás Maduro staging what resembles a parody of military training, with women, including elderly participants, struggling through awkward drills. While the scenes look more like a clumsy gym class than combat preparation, experts warn the troubling reality is that Maduro is exploiting civilians, even seniors, as symbolic soldiers to mask a weakening military, effectively using them as human shields while the U.S. increases pressure and doubles the bounty on his head. #hm #hmintelligence
