The Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant has been without electricity for almost three weeks, a situation that raises the risk of a nuclear incident, warn Ukrainian authorities.

Something like this has never happened in the history of nuclear energy,” Sybiha clarified. The Ukrainian official also emphasized…
Russia has confiscated at least 25,000 apartments and houses in the occupied Ukrainian territories, turning this action into a systemic business. Russian dictator Vladimir Putin justifies the large-scale invasion, among other things, by “liberating” Russian-speaking regions. In reality, the territories under Russian occupation are subjected to widespread looting. This is the conclusion of an investigation published by Le Figaro. The confiscation campaign has been underway since 2014. Under the pretext of “ownerless property”, Moscow takes over houses and apartments belonging to Ukrainians who are not listed in the Russian registers. In reality, this equates to a systematic expropriation of other…
The Kremlin has issued new threats against the Republic of Moldova, after Chisinau adopted a military strategy that identifies Russia as the “main threat” to national security.

“We are not at war, but we no longer live in peace either.” The statement by the German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, made last month, was brief, but full of historical echoes. It lacks the drama of Sir Edward Grey’s famous words, spoken on the eve of the First World War — “The lamps are going out all over Europe” — but it warns, just as clearly, that a page of history is turning. In recent months, several suspected drone and Russian aircraft incursions have violated the airspace of some NATO countries. In parallel, hostile maritime and cyber activities have intensified.…
Although Russia has bet on the passage of time, a new Ukrainian strategy is beginning to yield unexpected results. In a forest near the front line, two Russian soldiers emerged from the trees and slowly walked down a dirt road, seemingly unaware that they were being watched from the air. A low-flying Ukrainian drone launched a projectile that exploded between them with an intense orange light. Despite the explosion, the two soldiers got up and limped back into the forest. The attack had failed. The images were monitored from a Ukrainian command post about 15 kilometers from the front line.…

Russian President Vladimir Putin arrived in Tajikistan on Wednesday, October 8, after not having visited the country since 2022. Although Tajikistan is a member of the International Criminal Court (ICC) and should have, according to international obligations, arrested the Kremlin leader, the authorities in Dushanbe gave him a lavish welcome. The Human Rights Watch (HRW) organization had previously asked the Tajikistan government to either ban Putin from entering the country or to detain him upon arrival, reminding them of the warrant issued by the International Criminal Court, reports Radio Liberty. “Putin should be tried in The Hague, not welcomed at…
