#Protests against #water cuts continue in #Dagestan
About 200 residents of Dagestan blocked the Astrakhan-Makhachkala federal highway in the #Kumtorkalinsky district of the republic. The #demonstrators demanded to take action in connection with the long absence of water in their homes. The section on the 470th kilometer of the road turned out to be blocked, the #protesters took to the road around 20:00.
“During the blocking of the road, a conflict arose between people demanding water supply to their homes, and drivers, outraged by the #fact of blocking the road and stopping traffic,” the police said. #Employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs intervened in the conflict, to the so-called. More than 50 police officers were involved in "enforcing order". An hour and a half later, by 21:36, traffic was restored in the blocked area.
A traffic jam formed at the scene of the incident, 30 police officers began to regulate traffic to eliminate it. “In the course of communication with #citizens, the conflict was extinguished. At present, the citizens have dispersed, the situation is under control,” the Ministry of Internal Affairs noted.
In this microdistrict, the supply of water and electricity has been turned off for a week, writes the telegram channel Mash Gor.
In the middle of last week, residents of Makhachkala blocked one of the central streets of the city due to power outages. The population of several cities and regions of the republic was left without electricity due to the heat that is in the region. The Dagestan authorities attributed the interruptions to the established abnormally hot weather (up to 43 degrees Celsius) and promised to suppress the protests.
As usual, the authorities blame everything... the population itself. "The current situation is primarily due to the chaotic high-rise buildings, the uncalculated capacity of energy facilities and illegal connections to the power grid," the prosecutor's office says. Prosecutor General Igor Krasnov instructed to deal with the situation in the republic. The Investigative Committee opened a criminal case under the article on negligence (part 1 of article 293 of the Criminal Code) due to "long" and "systematic" blackouts

#Demonstrators march to #commemorate the #Nakba Day, Day of the #Catastrophe, on May 15, 1960 in #Damascus. This day marks the #displacement of hundreds of thousands of #Palestinians following the establishment of the #Israeli state in 1948. More than 700,000 Palestinians who fled or were expelled from their #homes in the #war that accompanied #Israel's #declaration of #independence took refuge in #Arab #countries, including #Syria.

"The #demonstration, titled “#Red #Line #for #Hate,” was organized by LGBTQ organizations, with #Aguda – Israel’s LGBTQ Task Force leading the charge. #Demonstrators were heard chanting “We are here and everywhere” and “#Homophobia starts in the #government offices.” The demonstrators also blocked an intersection to Tel Aviv’s #Ayalon #highway"

There appears to be a worldwide trend among #demonstrators to use very simple #symbols to express their opinions, most likely because the symbols are easy to remember and make, such as a black fist, the flag flower, and even #blankPapers.
I'd say blank papers are most creative: I raise blank papers to avoid saying something banned, while you know what I want to say in silence, which reaches a balanced consensus.

So a bunch of #demonstrators in #Moscow are calling for a #nuclear strike on #WashingtonDC … they were saying things like “strike the decision making centers!”
Once “Boomer” missile submarines validate/authenticate an order to launch nuclear weapons, they folllow an attack plan until ordered to stand down … destroy the decision makers, that stand down order never comes. They will launch their missiles and destroy you. Never target command and control.

"... the #demonstrators now are openly calling for the overthrow of the #IslamicRegime, which has ruled Iran for the last 40 years. Frequently, now, according to multiple reports, slogans such as 'death to the dictator' and 'death to the system' may be heard."
