Topic

International news — a classification, not a measurement. An on-box language model (Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-UD-Q6_K_XL, prompt version 1) read this channel’s own recent posts on 20 August 2026 and assigned it the closest of 31 fixed categories, at 97% confidence. This is a model’s judgement about what the channel is likely to be about, not a fact this register measured the way a subscriber count or a view count is measured — it can be revised on a later pass, and it carries no weight anywhere else on this page. How this classification works, and why it has no browse page of its own yet.

36 measurements spanning 51 days, net +164. Dots are measurements; the straight line between them is drawn to join them, not to claim we know the path taken in between — snapshots are recorded only when a count changes, so gaps mean “no change observed”, never “interpolated”. The vertical axis spans 77,113–77,545 and does not start at zero.

ERR is average views per post over the last 30 days divided by subscribers, the definition TGStat uses, so this figure is comparable with the one you will see elsewhere. It falls structurally as a channel grows: a high ERR on a small channel and a low one on a large channel describe reach mathematics, not quality. We publish the figure and the sample it came from and pass no verdict on it.

ER is defined industry-wide as (forwards + reactions + comments) ÷ views — note the denominator is views, not subscribers. Telegram’s public web preview carries views and reactions but not forward or comment counts, so the reaction rate above is the reactions term only and is therefore a floor: the true ER for this channel is higher by an amount we have not measured and will not estimate.

Forwards / commentsnot exposed by the public surface — not measured, not estimated
Readings taken2 Oct 2026, 14:01 UTC

Views are a single reading per post, taken at the time above. A post published in the last day or two is still accumulating views, which pulls the 30-day average down slightly. That is a property of the standard definition rather than a fault in it, so we keep the definition rather than “correcting” the number into something nobody can reproduce.

Precision. Telegram publishes view counts on its public widget in short form — 8.12K, 3.7M — so any reading at or above 1,000 reaches us rounded to three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. Averages and rates derived from them are shown to the same precision rather than to the unit: a figure like 3,701,250 would assert digits nobody measured.

Reaction counts are published per emoji and rounded the same way, so a total below 1,000 is exact and a larger one is a sum that may carry a rounded component from each emoji above 1,000. Because it is a sum, it does not look rounded — read a large reaction total as three significant figures per contributing emoji rather than as the figure it prints.

Lifetime counters from Telegram’s own channel header, read 2 October 2026 — not the date at the top of this page, which is when the subscriber count was last read. A count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints these counters in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈142,000 means somewhere between 141,500 and 142,499.

Measured directly from 84 videos with a duration reading, out of the posts we hold for this channel — not this channel’s whole posting history, only the sample this register has actually read. An exact reading to the second, taken from the post itself rather than from Telegram’s own rounded chrome, so it carries no ≈ mark.

США готовятся к новой фазе войны с Ираном. В интервью журналу Time Дональд Трамп заявил, что США готовы возобновить масштабные удары по Ирану после промежуточных выборов в ноябре, если Вашингтону не удастся достичь с Тегераном соглашения, которое устроит Штаты. По мнению главы Белого дома, “уничтожение Исламской Республики обеспечит мир во всем мире”. Трамп готов идти на эскалацию, несмотря на серьезные последствия …

Власти Сирии заявили о нейтрализации связанной с “Хезболлой” ячейки.

В сирийской провинции Хомс неизвестные расстреляли микроавтобус с сотрудниками торгово-промышленной компании “Аль-Матин”. Преступники под видом полицейских остановили машину, выяснили, кто находится внутри и открыли огонь. При обстреле погибли восемь человек, четверо получили ранения. Жертвами нападения оказались алавиты. Ответственность за нападение никто не взял. Алавитская община считает, что атаку совершили джих…

Перекрыли газ. В Сирии произошел взрыв на газопроводе в провинции Дамаск. В результате прекращения подачи газа без топлива остались три крупные электростанции: “Тишрин”, “Дейр-Али” и “Насирия”. Экстренные службы быстро справились с пожаром и приступили к восстановлению газопровода. Причина взрыва пока не установлена: власти не исключают диверсию. При этом 28 сентября на газопроводе в провинции Дейр-Эз-Зор произошел…

В Южной Корее осудили студента за поддержку Исламского государства. Суд в городе Чхонджу приговорил 18-летнего парня к одному году лишения свободы за попытку присоединиться к ИГ. По данным следствия, интерес к группировке у него появился еще в подростковом возрасте. Он посещал ресурсы джихадистов, просматривал и сохранял пропагандистские материалы. Ему удалось установить контакты с другими сторонниками ИГ, которые п…

30 сентября. На борту самолета Flydubai, летевшего из Дубая в Тель-Авив, вооруженный ножом второй пилот напал на командира воздушного судна (КВС). После этого злоумышленник попытался разбить борт. Самолет потерял более 4300 метров высоты за 30 секунд. Раненый КВС попытался помешать ему. Шум в кабине услышали пассажиры, они взломали дверь, скрутили нападавшего и оказали помощь раненому пилоту.

Спецслужбы Грузии заявили о нейтрализации ячейки Исламского государства. Операция прошла в муниципалитетах Гардабани и Карели. Силовики задержали двух сторонников ИГ. По данным следствия, джихадисты дали присягу на верность главарю МТО Абу Хафсу Аль-Хашими Аль-Курейши. При обысках в домах исламистов силовики обнаружили боеприпасы, гранату и различные цифровые носители с пропагандистскими материалами ИГ.

Showing the 12 most recent of 157 posts we hold for @directorate4. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.

Posts edited after publishing

@directorate4 edited 2 posts after it first published — the same permalink now carries different wording than the one this register originally read, caught because our own crawl held a copy of the earlier text.

An edit is not deception. Typo fixes, price updates and corrections look exactly like this too — this register can tell you the wording changed and when, not why. How this is measured.

Forward network

Built only from forwarded posts we have actually read, on both sides. Coverage is early and deliberately incomplete: a missing link means we have not read the post that would prove it, never that the relationship does not exist. Counts are distinct forwarded posts observed, so they only ever go up as we read more.

Mentions

Named by 29 registered channels — every channel on the register whose own posts have named this one, by its current username or any other username it currently holds, merged from two separately captured readings of the same fact so a namer caught by only one of them is not missed and a namer both caught is not counted twice. A username this channel has since dropped is not matched — that handle may belong to someone else now, and crediting today’s namer to yesterday’s owner would misattribute it. The 24 listed below are the most frequent namers; the rest are counted above but not each listed.

A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.

Channels Telegram recommends alongside this one

Telegram’s own answer, not this register’s. When this register asks Telegram’s API what is similar to this channel, this is the list it returns, in the exact order Telegram returns it — never re-sorted by subscribers or by anything else this register measures. The relationship, and the order, are Telegram’s; we record them and date them, and make no claim of our own about which of these channels actually resemble this one.

Read from Telegram’s recommendation API, most recently 19 August 2026. Telegram holds a list like this for a small and growing share of the register — how this is measured, and why most channel pages show nothing here.

Appears in Telegram’s recommendations for other channels

The reverse of the list above, and a different kind of signal. This does not require this channel to have ever been asked about directly — each row below is a channel we DID ask Telegram about, whose Telegram-generated list happened to include this one. A channel can appear here with an empty list above it, because being named by someone else’s query is independent of having been queried itself.
