Trump rolls into the G7 summit complaining about how mean they are to Putin, trashes America on foreign soil, confused the EU with the UK, dropped papers on the ground, trashed Tucker Carlson, accomplished nothing, then bailed early to escalate a war. MAGA!

30 telecoms masts AND ~15 various electrical grid units have been sabotaged last months in south-east Sweden.

The sabotages are concentrated along highway E22, ie one of the main routes needed to reinforce Gotland in case of conflict. Ports are along this route, with the main one in the middle.
