TERRORIST ATTACK OUTSIDE SERBIAN PARLIAMENT

A 70-year-old former state security agent, Vladan Angelković, opened fire outside Serbia’s National Assembly in Belgrade on Wednesday, injuring a 57-year-old pedestrian, Milan Bogdanovic, in the thigh before setting fire to a tent occupied by supporters of President Aleksandar Vučić.

The suspect was apprehended by police after a brief exchange of gunfire, with authorities confirming the victim was hospitalized in stable condition, and charging him with attempted murder and weapons offenses. Additional ammunition was also found on the suspect, and he threw some cartridges into the flames after the shooting.

President Vučić labeled the incident a terrorist act and released CCTV footage of the arrest, in which the suspect stated he was annoyed by the "occupation of the city center" and wanted to die, claiming he set the tent on fire with gasoline to provoke a lethal police response.

"This vile and cowardly act was carried out by a citizen who worked in the state security service for 16 years (dismissed back in the 90s)," Vučić said. "The use of fi****ms and the political motive make this a clear case of terrorism....

CYBERCRIME BUST

An international law enforcement operation, codenamed SIMCARTEL, led by Europol and Latvian authorities, dismantled a major cybercrime-as-a-service (CaaS) platform on October 10, 2025, resulting in the seizure of 1,200 SIM box devices, 40,000 active SIM cards, and five servers used to facilitate global fraud.

The operation, which involved coordinated raids across multiple countries, led to the arrest of seven suspects, including five Latvian nationals, and disrupted a network responsible for enabling over 49 million fake online accounts and more than 3,200 cyber fraud cases across Europe.

The dismantled network, operating under the guise of a legitimate service, provided criminals with temporary phone numbers from over 80 countries to mask their identities, enabling a wide range of crimes including phishing, smishing, investment fraud, extortion, migrant smuggling, and the distribution of child sexual abuse material (CSAM).

This was also the 132nd Falcon 9 liftoff of the year, equaling the mark set by the rocket last year, with nearly 2.5 months still to go in 2025.

The Falcon 9 second stage deployed the 28 satellites into a 295 km orbit at a 53° inclination, about 1 hour after liftoff. Those 28 included the 10,000th Starlink spacecraft ever to reach orbit, which a SpaceX employee noted on the company's launch webcast: "From Tintin to 10,000! Go Starlink, go Falcon, go SpaceX!"

TRUMP CALLS FOR UKRAINE-RUSSIA DEAL

Following a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Friday, President Donald Trump called for both Ukraine and Russia to stop the war at the current battle lines, urging both sides to "go home, go to their families, stop the killing" and claim victory.

Trump reiterated this stance in a Truth Social post, stating, "They should stop where they are. Let both claim Victory, let History decide!" Zelenskyy described the meeting as "productive" and "long," emphasizing that both leaders agreed not to make statements about long-range strikes into Russia to avoid escalation, as the United States does not want further tension.

Trump had declined to commit to supplying Ukraine with long-range Tomahawk missiles, citing the need to maintain U.S. stockpiles and a desire to end the war. He stated, "We’d much rather have the war be over to be honest," and expressed hesitation about tapping into U.S. supplies.
