    Fraud Gangs Switch to Myanmar's Communication Networks

    Fraudulent gangs operating in Myanmar have adapted their tactics after Thailand cut off power and internet supply at the border. They are now increasingly using local Myanmar communication networks (MPT, Ooredoo, Mytel, ATOM) to connect to the internet, making it harder to stop scams. An investigation found that nearly half of the fraud compounds are no longer dependent on Starlink. Simply cutting off a single technology without targeting criminal networks and military protection systems will only force fraud gangs to transform at a low cost.

    PP Spokesperson Criticizes Sánchez's Management Ahead of Elections

    Ester Muñoz, spokesperson for the People's Party (PP), has criticized the management of President Pedro Sánchez ahead of the upcoming general elections. She accused Sánchez of governing only for himself and not for Spaniards, stating that the lives of citizens have worsened under his administration. Muñoz also rejected the idea that the PP wants to cut everything, asserting that the party aims to raise the minimum interprofessional salary and guarantee it by law, exempt from IRPF. Regarding migration policy, she said that only those who come with a work contract will be allowed into Spain, while those who do not will be sent back to their country. In contrast, Minister of Territorial Policy Ángel Víctor Torres has predicted that the PSOE will govern again due to the 'nothingness and emptiness' facing the progressive government's proposals.

    US Lawmakers Oppose Trump's Russia Energy Deals, Push for Ukraine Support

    US Congress attempts to block Trump's energy deals with Russia, proposing a bill to revoke import permits, ban future exemptions from sanctions, and require intelligence support for Ukraine. Republican lawmakers, including Brian Fitzpatrick, Don Bacon, and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, co-sponsor the bill. Similar sentiments are echoed by Republican senators like Mitch McConnell and Susan Collins. The move aims to maintain military and political pressure on Moscow and prevent Trump's administration from easing sanctions. Meanwhile, the war in Ukraine divides Republicans, with some supporting US involvement and others wanting to stay out of the conflict.
