Gunfire on the streets of Saratoga Springs early Sunday morning left at least three people wounded, including an off-duty sheriff’s deputy from Vermont who was shot multiple times by police.

An off-duty Vermont sheriff's deputy was shot by police in upstate New York on Sunday after he exchanged fire with a group of men.

The shooting, which happened at around 3 a.m. on Sunday, came after Saratoga Springs Police responded to another shooting.

The deputy was shot by police multiple times, after he ignored commands from the officers to drop his firearm, according to police and the mayor.

The gunfire broke out at 3 a.m. in the historic downtown of the small city, known for its thoroughbred horse racing, fine restaurants and cultural attractions.

Video from a street camera appeared to show a group of people fighting on the sidewalk, then scattering as shots were fired.

Two men were shooting at each other as police arrived, including a deputy from the Rutland County Sheriff's Office, according to Saratoga Springs Police Sgt. Paul Veitch.

Body camera video released by the city showed officers running toward the sound of the gunshots with their pistols drawn, one screaming “drop the gun!”

When the sheriff's deputy, who was not in uniform, didn't drop his weapon, Saratoga Springs officers opened fire, according Commissioner of Public Safety James Montagnino.

The deputy, who was not immediately identified, suffered 10 bullet wounds, including one to the chest, but was conscious and was expected to survive, the Times-Union reported.

His girlfriend's arm was grazed by a bullet.

"By my count, there are at least eight separate, clear, unequivocal commands to put the gun down and get on the ground," Saratoga Springs Public Safety Commissioner James Montagnino said at a press conference. "They are all ignored.

The shooting beforehand involving the deputy and the group of men left two people injured. That shooting was sparked by an argument. A woman believed to be the deputy’s girlfriend suffered a graze wound and a man involved in the altercation was also injured.

Three people had allegedly slammed the deputy into a parked vehicle before then pushing him to the ground. The deputy then pulled out a gun and exchanged gunfire with a member of the group who also had a firearm.

The deputy had gotten into a barroom argument with a group of three people from Utica. After the fight spilled onto the street, the deputy showed his weapon and the Utica man drew his, which was when gunfire broke out. Seven to eight shots were fired between the two, and the deputy shot the Utica man.

All three gunshot victims were in stable condition at a hospital. Authorities didn’t identify them. The Saratoga Springs officers who fired weapons have been placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of an investigation “to find out if any policies or protocols were violated,” Saratoga Springs Police Sgt. Paul Veitch said. That investigation is set to be conducted by the Saratoga Springs Police Department, he said.

Saratoga Springs Mayor Ron Kim denounced the shooting saying: “Nobody should be on Caroline Street at 3 o’clock in the morning drinking that has a weapon. End of story.”

No arrests have been made in the case and New York State Police are investigating the shooting.

The United Aircraft Corporation manufactured delivers new batch of Su-30SM2 fighter jets to Russian troops

The United Aircraft Corporation manufactured and delivered a batch of new Su-30SM2 fighter jets and Yak-130 combat trainers to the Defense Ministry, the Russian government said in a statement released on Monday.

"The Irkutsk Aviation Plant of the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC, part of the state corporation Rostec) has manufactured and delivered new Su-30SM2 fighters and Yak-130 combat trainer aircraft to the Defense Ministry of Russia," the statement reads.

The Cabinet noted that the Su-30SM2 is an upgrade of the planes that are in service with the Russian Aerospace Forces and the Russian Navy.

"The new aircraft have received sophisticated onboard radio-electronic equipment. The upgrade carried out on an assignment from the Russian Defense Ministry has boosted the aircraft’s combat capabilities. In particular, the aerial target detection and identification range has been increased," the government explained, adding that the new fighters were capable of delivering strikes against aerial, ground and naval targets with new smart weapons from a distance of several hundred kilometers.

The Yak-130 two-seat combat trainer is used for the basic and advanced training of pilots to learn to operate modern and state-of-the-art combat aircraft, including generation 4++ and fifth-generation fighters.

Earlier in February 2022, the Russian Su-30SM2 fighter was upgraded to control combat drones.

Russia’s Su-30SM2 naval fighters will be re-configured with a system to control attack drones mid-air, Izvestia revealed, citing sources.

This year, the Russian Navy has inducted four multirole SM2s, an upgrade on the Su-30SM that boasts a more powerful engine, radar, and “smart weapons.”

A “communication complex” is being built to allow the two-seat aircraft to communicate with and direct a range of unmanned aerial aircraft, including the S-70 Okhotnik.

Military analyst Vladislav Shurygin told Izvestia that the SM2’s co-pilot could interact with the drone and provide it with target coordinates while the pilot is flying the aircraft. He ruled out the pilot steering the unmanned platform.

Shurygin said that the wingman drones could “reconnoiter ground targets for aircraft strikes and evaluate the results,” adding that drones with powerful radars could work as the “eyes and ears” of the aircraft, helping it control the situation from hundreds of kilometers away.

Additional roles include marine patrol and penetrating well-defended targets without risk to the aircraft.

The number of transferred aircraft is not specified.

"As part of Rostec, we continue to fulfill our obligations under the state defense order. Today, another batch of vehicles is in production, which will be handed over to the customer by the end of the year," UAC CEO Yuri Slyusar is quoted by the government as saying.

"In the light of the current tasks, the industry is acting in solidarity with the Ministry of Defense. The Coordinating Council under the government controls the provision of the needs of the Armed Forces for equipment and compliance with the delivery deadlines," Minister of Industry and Trade Denis Manturov said.

No agreement reached at Belgrade-Pristina talks in Brussels, says Vucic

Belgrade and Pristina failed to reach an agreement at top-level talks in Brussels in the presence of EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell and EU Special Representative for the Belgrade-Pristina Dialogue Miroslav Lajcak, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic told reporters on Monday.

"For reasons I do not understand, we failed to reach an agreement," Vucic said.

"The Serbian side was absolutely constructive, we accepted tens of updates [to the treaty], but the Albanian side refused to accept anything even for a second, they always wanted to add something that is impossible," Vucic stated.

The president stressed that during the negotiations it was clear which side really wanted to reach an agreement, and the only thing that Belgrade insisted on was "that all the agreements signed earlier should be respected," he added. The Serbian leader said that he would analyze all documents, "put together all impressions" and address the nation later on Monday or Tuesday evening.

On November 14, EU’s Borrell said at a press conference following an EU Council meeting that Belgrade and Pristina representatives would begin EU-mediated talks on the dialogue between Serbia and unrecognized Kosovo in Brussels on Monday. According to him, November 29 is the deadline by which an agreement must be hammered out in order to avoid a serious crisis.

Earlier, Kosovo authorities decided to fine those who did not change their Serbian license plates, issuing warnings starting November 1. Fines will amount to 150 euros, and citizens will be instructed to replace Serbian plates with the registration plates of the unrecognized Kosovo. After April 21, 2023, when the transition period is over, the Kosovo police will be authorized to seize cars with Serbian plates.

In response, Kosovo and Metohija Serbs quitted all government institutions of unrecognized Kosovo on November 5.

In accordance with the Brussels agreements on the normalization of relations between Belgrade and Pristina of April 19, 2013, the Community of Serb Municipalities, a self-governing body of Serbs living in the unrecognized republic, is to be established in Kosovo. Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic has repeatedly stated that his country has fulfilled its part of the Brussels agreements, while the Kosovars only started to work out the charter for the Community of Serb Municipalities and then suspended the process.

Titik 0 Kilometer Sesar Cimandiri yang Picu Gempa Cianjur Terletak di Ciburuy Bandung Barat

Badan Badan Meteorologi Klimatologi dan Geofisika (BMKG) menduga gempa berkekuatan 5,6 magnitudo yang mengguncang pada hari Senin, 21/11/2022, berasal dari aktivitas Sesar Cimandiri.

Pusat gempa ini terletak di koordinat 6,86 Lintang Selatan dan 107,01 Bujur Timur, tepatnya di darat wilayah Sukalarang, Sukabumi, Jawa Barat pada kedalaman 11 km.

Koordinator bidang Data dan Informasi Stasiun Geofisika Bandung, Virga Librian memaparkan hasil analisis lokasi episenter atau pusat gempa serta kedalamnya, gempa bumi kali ini merupakan jenis gempa dangkal yang diduga akibat aktivitas sesar Cimandiri.

"Hasil analisis mekanisme sumber menunjukkan bahwa gempabumi memiliki mekanisme pergerakan geser (strike-slip)," kata Virga saat dihubungi.

Area Sesar Cimandiri memanjang dari mulai muara Sungai Cimandiri di Pelabuhan ratu, Kabupaten Sukabumi, lalu mengarah ke timur laut melewati Kabupaten Cianjur, Kabupaten Bandung Barat, dan Kabupaten Subang.

Kepala Pelaksana BPBD KBB Duddy Prabowo mengatakan berdasarkan informasi yang diterimanya gempa berkekuatan 5,6 magnitudo yang mengguncang siang ini diduga akibat aktivitas sesar Cimandiri.

"Berdasarkan rilis dari BMKG diduga akibat aktivitas sesar Cimandiri," kata Duddy.

Khusus di Bandung Barat, sesar aktif itu melewati dua kecamatan dan empat desa yaitu Kecamatan Padalarang dimulai dari Desa Ciburuy, sedangkan Kecamatan Cipatat terdiri dari Desa Gunung Masigit, Desa Cipatat dan desa Rajamandala.

"Titik nol-nya itu di RW 19 Desa Ciburuy. Termasuk Situ Ciburuy itu titik terdekat," ujar Duddy.

Dikatakan Duddy, potensi dari Sesar Cimandiri juga tetap harus diwaspadai. Pihaknya, kata dia, beberapa waktu lalu sudah melakukan edukasi dan sosialisasi terkait potensi gempa dari sesar Cimandiri.

"Imbauannya kepada masyatakat untuk senantiasa waspada dan berhati-hati. Kekhawatiran kami bisa saja sewaktu waktu terjadi gempa susulan," imbuh Duddy.

Selain itu, kata dia, pihaknya juga sudah melakukan pemetaan dan akan memasang rambu-rambu di jalur-jalur yang terlintasi sesar tersebut.

"Langkah selanjutnya kita juga sudah melakukan pemetaan dan akan kita pasang rambu-rambu di jalur itu," ujar Duddy.
