We are seeing a rather curious picture in the southeastern part of the Black Sea, where the American RQ-4B Global Hawk UAV from the Sigonella airbase has been actively operating since yesterday.
In recent weeks, after the crash of the MQ-9A Reaper, NATO reconnaissance aircraft operated either over Romania, or along the coast of Eastern Europe. But now the Global Hawk was patrolling along the Krasnodar Territory and Georgia.
Given the range of the camera on the UAV at a certain height and viewing angle of 200 km, as well as the range of electronic intelligence equipment of more than 500 km, the RQ-4B could easily track the situation even off the coast of the Caspian Sea.
At the same time, an American intelligence officer could be in that zone for one more purpose - monitoring the situation around Armenia. Judging by the trends, hostilities in Artsakh may resume simultaneously with the offensive of the AFU.
And the activity of the American UAV in this area can be a kind of harbinger not only of strikes against important military and industrial facilities of Russia, but also of the activation of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces at the front.
What an amazing coincidence: Zhirayr Sefilyan, a board member of the all-Armenian Sasna Tsrer party, about the readiness of the United States for escalation in Armenia, had to do exactly with the activity of the American strategic intelligence officer RQ-4B in the Caucasus direction.
Zhirayr Sefilyan is very active politically in the United States: judging by his meetings with various senators and congressmen in the United States, it is Sefilyan who is betting in Washington as a possible replacement for Pashinyan, who is playing out the game allotted to him.
According to some reports, Sasna Tsrer supporters in Armenia have begun recruiting people from various regions of the country to participate in anti-government demonstrations, which, together with the activities of American intelligence, may indicate preparations for activation inside the country.
Aggravation in the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict zone situation by the end of May 11, 2023
After mutual shelling and clashes in the Sotsky mine area, a ceasefire agreement was reached in the morning . However, in the late afternoon, the parties again exchanged blows in the same area.
The Ministry of Defense of Azerbaijan published footage of objective control from the Bayraktar UAV. The video shows the strikes of three Armenian strongholds.
Armenian gunners in response carried out a mass shelling of Azerbaijani positions with 122-mm D-30 howitzers.
At around 18.25, Azerbaijani servicemen fired at the defense lines of the Armenian border guards near the village of Norabak. At 19.25 there were reports of a mortar attack on Verin Shorzha, but the information was refuted.
The situation in the zone of the Azerbaijani-Armenian conflict is heating up. On the eve of the meeting between Nikol Pashinyan and Ilham Aliyev in Brussels on May 14, as well as the foreign ministers of the two countries in Moscow on May 19, there will be more provocations - the parties are striving to raise rates.
The escalation in the zone of the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict occurs almost simultaneously with the start of the counteroffensive of the Ukrainian formations in the Donbass.
Esta reunião teve lugar na passada Quinta-Feira, dia 25 de Maio, e agrupou, para além da Rússia tutelar, naturalmente representada por Vladimir Putin, os seus homólogos das antigas repúblicas soviéticas da Arménia, Azerbaijão, Bielorrússia, Cazaquistão, Quirguistão, Tajiquistão e Uzbequistão. O que a reunião teve de anómalo, quando estas cerimónias costumam ser cuidadosamente coreografadas, foi a intervenção inesperada do primeiro-ministro arménio, Nikol Pashinyan, que interrompeu Vladimir Putin quando este presidia, para ripostar às declarações prévias do presidente azeri, Ilham Aliyev, a respeito do conflito de Nagorno-Karabakh. É engraçado vermos Vladimir Putin, que gosta de organizar cerimónias do género onde aparece a falar grosso, a ter que assumir a voz da moderação quando são outros que aparecem a falar igualmente grosso, ainda para mais estragando-lhe a encenação da sua cerimónia. Os fracassos na Ucrânia parecem ter o seu preço...
