Since the beginning of February, the Russian Ministry of the Interior has been promoting a bill that is officially intended to “protect the interests of car owners whose vehicles have been pursued…

“Matryoshka”, the well-known pro-Kremlin bot network, has launched a disinformation campaign targeting the parliamentary elections next month in Budapest, different from those in other countries, such as the Republic of Moldova, where Moscow has tried to influence the vote.

Another fake video clip, marked with the logo of the Ukrainian platform United24, claims that a high-ranking Ukrainian…

This is a first in American justice. A jury in Los Angeles decided on Wednesday that Meta and Google deliberately built social media platforms that create addiction – and that this directly affected the mental health of a young woman, reports BBC. The case concerns Kaley, a 20-year-old who sued the two companies for the social media addiction she developed in her childhood. The verdict, communicated to Judge Carolyn Kuhl, vindicates her. After a trial of about five weeks, the jury established responsibilities: Meta – the company that owns Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp – bears 70% of the blame for…

Houthi leader, Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, has already conveyed that the group is prepared to enter into conflict, stating that…

The West has failed in its mission in the Red Sea — defending the Strait of Hormuz will be even more difficult. Western allies attempting to negotiate a deal to protect the Strait of Hormuz are facing a harsh reality: a similar mission in the Red Sea, launched years earlier, ultimately failed, writes Reuters. The costly experience from the Red Sea — four sunken ships and over a billion dollars spent on armament — looms over an even more difficult situation in the Strait of Hormuz, a maritime transport artery through which approximately a fifth of the world’s reserves of…
