High-ranking Russian general Apti Alaudinov claims Israel is deliberately escalating the conflict in the Middle East to draw in the U.S. and NATO, thereby risking its own existence as a state.

Ukraine has claimed to have wiretapped the headquarters of Chechen Akhmat special forces, a claim which the commander, Apti Alaudinov, dismisses as 'fairy tales' and 'the work of AI'.

Apti Alaudinov, commander of the Chechen Akhmat unit, expressed support for Iran and called for arming allies against the West, sharply attacking US President Donald Trump and labeling him the 'Antichrist'.
