Fars News Agency reported Bulgaria said a Ukrainian drone this morning attacked the Trans‑Balkan gas pipeline, which carries Russian gas to Europe via Turkey.

A Washington Post-obtained Pentagon memo shows the Pentagon has ordered U.S. defense firms to rapidly raise weapons production and deliveries, citing acute ammunition shortages tied to the war with Iran. The previously unreported memo says Deputy Defense Secretary Steve Fanberg told industry leaders to submit plans within 21 days to “significantly accelerate, adopt more aggressive delivery schedules and/or increase output of critical capabilities.” He added that multi-year R&D timelines “are unacceptable. We must substantially speed program timelines and immediately expand capacity.” The directive comes as weapon shortfalls have become a point of tension between Trump and the Defense Department.

Turkey is restricting commercial vessels from entering the Black Sea, sources said, citing a rise in attacks on ships by Russian and Ukrainian forces. The Turkish Coast Guard has told multiple vessels bound for Russia’s Novorossiysk, a major oil and grain export hub, that it will not issue transit permits for such voyages and that Dardanelles transit applications will face extended review. Sources said some ships were told the restriction also applies to voyages to Ukraine. Turkish authorities did not comment. The move could add new complexity to global trade and oil flows already disrupted by the Iran war and reduced traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.
