Ukraine’s General Staff confirmed strikes on the Tamanneftegaz oil terminal in Volna, Krasnodar Krai, with a fire recorded at the site.

Ukraine’s General Staff confirmed strikes on the Tamanneftegaz oil terminal in Volna, Krasnodar Krai, with a fire recorded at the site. The terminal handles oil, fuel oil, diesel and liquefied hydrocarbon gases and supports Russian occupation forces. Ukrainian forces also hit command posts near Staromlynivka, Soledar and Komyshuvakha, a UAV control point in Myrne and troop concentrations across se...

❗️Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces hit the Tamanneftegaz terminal and Astrakhan Gas Processing Plant overnight, commander Robert “Magyar” Brovdi said. Astrakhan hits included gas condensate distillate tanks, sulfur warehouses, oil products storage, loading racks and at least one processing unit. At Taman, tank farm sections, two terminals, a pier and vacuum gasoil and oil product tanks were hit.

Quantum physicists have measured a phenomenon described as “negative time,” in which photons appear to exit a material before fully entering it.In a groundbreaking experiment conducted at the University of Toronto, researchers directed photons through a dense cloud of ultracold rubidium atoms. While light typically experiences a delay when passing through matter, the team observed rare cases where the photons behaved as if they had spent less than zero time inside the atomic medium.Using a combination of standard transmission measurements and a “weak measurement” technique that minimally disturbs the quantum system, the scientists tracked both the photons’ arrival times and the duration of atomic excitations in the rubidium cloud. Their results showed that, on average, transmitted photons exited the cloud earlier than expected — effectively registering a negative dwell time. This matched the duration of atomic excitation, confirming that the negative value reflects a real physical effect rather than a mere mathematical artifact.This discovery does not imply backward time travel or violations of causality. Instead, it highlights the counterintuitive nature of quantum mechanics, where group delay — the time shift of a wave packet — can take negative values near atomic resonance without breaking fundamental physical laws. The findings deepen our understanding of how cause and effect can appear blurred at the quantum scale, offering new insights into the non-classical behavior of light-matter interactions.[Angulo D, Thompson K, Nixon V-M, Jiao A, Wiseman HM, Steinberg AM.

Ukrainian troops routed Swedish forces during NATO drills simulating a Russian attack on Gotland, AP reported.

Ukrainian troops routed Swedish forces during NATO drills simulating a Russian attack on Gotland, AP reported. The exercise focused on defending the strategic Baltic island and brought in Ukrainian troops to sharpen NATO’s drone warfare skills. One Ukrainian operator said Sweden paused the drill 3 times to adjust, but in real combat, those troops would have died. Sweden’s commander said NATO must ...

Ukraine’s HUR said Russia has begun a prolonged combined air attack on critical targets, first using large numbers of strike drones to overload air defenses and hit civilian sites. Moscow then plans to launch air- and sea-based cruise missiles plus ballistic missiles.
