IPSEs IN THE LAST 24h

Nazar Voloshyn “This is the dominant height in the region, and control over it will allow the Russian invaders, if they achieve it, to significantly simplify the advance in the direction of Kostiantynivka and the direction of Sloviansk and Kramatorsk. These cities are the last stronghold of Donetsk Oblast, which is under the control of Ukraine.” 8 minutes ago
Volodymyr Zelenskiy “There were 11 missiles flying. We destroyed the first seven, and [the remaining] four destroyed Trypillia [village in which the Trypilska thermal power plant is situated]. Why? Because there were zero missiles. We ran out of missiles to defend Trypillia.” 5 hours ago
Peter Ricketts “Netanyahu must have calculated when he hit the Iranian Consulate in Damascus that the Iranians would retaliate, and that this would swing the Americans and their Western allies behind Israel. And that's worked, remarkably well. It's all gain for Netanyahu if he has the wisdom to take the win, or at least to retaliate in a limited way.” 8 hours ago
Daniel Levy “There's been this united public response defending Israel on Iran, with strong private messaging to Israel, 'Don't you dare'. While on Gaza, there's a lot of public hand-wringing but a lack of will to be tough in private. Gaza doesn't directly pull the United States into a war. So, they still believe they can tiptoe through the raindrops.” 8 hours ago
Vali R. Nasr “If every time Israel decides to punish Iran, it creates a massive tumult in Washington and London, these countries are going to pressure Israel. There's going to be a major international effort to build cordons around Israel's behavior toward Iran.” 8 hours ago
Annalena Baerbock “Iran is playing with the fate of all people in the Middle East and has led an entire region to the brink of the abyss. The aim now is to stop Iran without further escalation. Iran's plan to sow further violence must not work. Israel has our full solidarity and can rely on us. We also do not forget the many dozens of Israeli hostages who are still being held captive in Hamas tunnels. They must finally be released.” 9 hours ago

“Pyongyang's claim of testing a solid-fuel motor for longer range ballistic missiles supports its more aggressive, recently declared doctrine of using nuclear weapons if the Kim leadership or strategic assets come under threat. Once deployed, the technology would make North Korea's nuclear forces more versatile, survivable, and dangerous.”

“The headquarters of international companies in the UAE will be targets of attacks in the coming period. We hit specific and important targets in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi with a number of ballistic missiles, as well as sensitive targets in the Emirate of Dubai with a number of Samad-3 drones. The Yemeni armed forces confirm that the UAE enemy state will remain unsafe as long as the tools of the Israeli enemy remain in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, launching aggression against our dear country.”

“While significant attention has been focused on Iran's large ballistic missile program, Saudi Arabia's development and now production of ballistic missiles has not received the same level of scrutiny. The domestic production of ballistic missiles by Saudi Arabia suggests that any diplomatic effort to control missile proliferation would need to involve other regional actors, like Saudi Arabia and Israel, that produce their own ballistic missiles.”

“One of the biggest initial advantages potentially with this launch system is that it will provide South Korea the ability to put satellites into space that provide capability to have a system of surveillance over North Korea - and this will give south Korea the ability to monitor potential North Korea launches of ballistic and cruise missiles. In the next few years, South Korea plans to develop and start operating a series of space launch vehicles from the NARO Space Centre, and these launch vehicles will be putting small vehicles into lower orbit, further increasing South Korea's space defence capabilities. That's the plan and this is the first stage.”

“So far this year, North Korea has begun carrying out its nuclear program as planned by restarting its nuclear facilities in Yongbyon and by test-firing ballistic missiles. With North Korea escalating its nuclear threat, an end-of-war declaration will only cause North Korea to misbelieve that it may see the withdrawal of the U.S. Forces Korea from the Korean Peninsula.”

“The North fired cruise and ballistic missiles from a train less than 10 days ago. This act reveals that the Korean Peninsula's situation has not changed, despite the three inter-Korean summits and two Pyongyang-Washington summits under the Moon government.”

“It's extraordinary timing that you have not one but two Koreas testing ballistic missiles on the same day. It does speak to the fact that there's an arms race in this region that everyone needs to pay attention to.”

“The development of ballistic missiles with heavier warheads was already underway and has been accelerated especially after a South Korea-U.S. summit in May, in which President Moon Jae-in and U.S. President Joe Biden agreed to terminate U.S. missile guidelines on South Korea that have long restricted Seoul's development of missiles. Ballistic missiles with heavier warheads would be able to destroy underground facilities, but deploying them is still not the same as deploying far more powerful strategic nuclear weapons. South Korea has been boosting its military budget and developing weapons including ballistic missiles, but it has not being effective in terms of costs, when nuclear weapons are much more powerful than others.”

“The president has been very clear that he wants diplomats in the lead and we are supportive of that here at the Defense Department. But North Korea's continued development of ballistic missiles and weapons of mass destruction represents a threat to U.S. interest and security of our allies and partners. In the near time, we are going to work in close coordination with our allies and partners to seek to deter negative behavior from North Korea. That also means that working closely with our South Korean ally on making sure that our two militaries have the capability and readiness to defend our interests on the peninsula.”
