The bodies of 449 people who died during the occupation of Izium in 2022 have been identified and reburied, the Izium Administration reported.

Russia occupied the town for only a few months, yet managed to extinguish countless lives.

🇪🇺 The EU is insisting on accelerating the creation of a Special Tribunal to prosecute Russian crimes.

🔹There must be full accountability for Russia's crimes in Ukraine.

🔹Next week will be a very important milestone: the EU plans to join the creation of a "tribunal for Putin."

‼️ Trotz allem sind die Soldaten, mit denen wir gesprochen haben, überzeugend: Die Lage in Pokrovsk ist nicht so hoffnungslos, wie es von außen scheinen mag. Doch gerade jetzt, im kritischsten Moment, muss die Ukraine zeigen, dass sie bereit ist, bis zum Ende zu kämpfen. — Bericht der BBC

Путін каже "взяли", а українці піднімають прапор у Покровську - репортаж ВВС - BBC News Україна
Для Росії Покровськ — ще один крок до контролю над Донбасом. Для України ж це символ того, що боротися ще можливо.

'In Ukraine, the state itself is investigating the government, the cabinet, the president’s closest advisers. By contrast, it is impossible to imagine Kash Patel’s FBI investigating anyone in Trump’s White House. Any Russian who investigates Putin goes to jail"

🇫🇷🇪🇺 According to the Financial Times, France has declined to include roughly €18 billion in frozen Russian assets kept in her commercial banks in the EU’s “reparations loan” for Ukraine. These frozen funds represent the second‑largest bloc of Russian sovereign reserves in Europe outside Euroclear.

The Prime Minister of #Qatar: The negotiations to end the war are at a critical stage. There will be no total ceasefire without the withdrawal of Israeli troops from #Gaza.

Let’s remind Qatar that there will be no talks about withdrawal until #Hamas is disarmed and gone!

Where did the drones that crossed into Zelensky’s flight path come from?

Small UAVs can be smuggled anywhere, but can’t fly that high.

These UAVs were big, and if launched from far away, likely would’ve been spotted.

That means a state got them close before launch. But from a ship or land?

Wenn Russland in der #Ukraine nicht gestoppt wird, wird der Preis später sehr viel höher sein – finanziell, politisch, vielleicht auch militärisch. Deshalb braucht es mehr Mut, mehr Entschlossenheit und ein Bewusstsein für die Dringlichkeit. Wenn wir jetzt nicht handeln, sehe ich schwarz.

Mal von der Aufregung über die neuen Nationale Sicherheitsstrategie der USA abgesehen - was, außer "Trump anrufen" ist eigentlich unsere deutsche und europäische Sicherheitsstrategie? Was wollen wir für die Europäische Sicherheit erreichen bis wann und mit welchen Mitteln?

Again, since certain people can't wrap their heads around this pretty simple concept:

If you voted for Kamala, you helped Kamala.

If you voted for Trump, you helped Trump.

If you voted 3rd Party, you helped Trump.

If you stayed home, you helped Trump.

The case for optimism: Witkoff and Kushner think they can sell out Europe because they got away with it in Gaza.

But the Palestinians essentially have no allies. Ukraine does. It's the alienation and strong-arming of allies that pose the last challenge to Trump/Vance's surrender to Putin.
I don't know who, if anyone, is raising the alarm for the sell-out Witkoff and Kushner have planned by Christmas, but you'd have to think US Senators would get that the best and maybe only chance to stop this is before "the deal" is made.
Pretty much the only thing that can prevent this is a healthy chunk of the Republican Party standing up in the next few days to tell Trump that we won't be a Putin-client nation.

And the question is whether a healthy chunk of that party exists.

The hate vs Gavin Newsom is directly the business of MAGA, and knuckleheads like Halle Berry demonstrate clearly that *all Americans are guilty* for the fate of Ukraine, for instance.
There is no excuse for starting a civil war in the opposition. Zero.
This Gavin hate is comical given what these other Dem governors aren't doing.
