Russians are forcing the migrants to enter the border area & then close the gates behind them, not letting them go back to Russia. Finns are then forced to take the migrants in to save them from freezing. Russian border guards are not answering the calls from Finnish authorities

A devastating and tragic day in NW #Syria, as families mourn a horrific massacre by Russian forces on the Ahl Sarqeb camp in the western countryside of #Idlib killing 5 civilians, including 3 women and 2 children, and injuring 5 others, including an infant and two children.

The large-scale mass slaughtering of civilians in Syria by Assad aided by Russia and Iran has never mobilized the global left or "the Arab street".
No mass demonstrations. Neither by "caring" arabians. Nor by "caring" Harvard students.

If Europeans, the US, Arab countries don't want Israel to go into Gaza to destroy the Hamas military infrastructure, they have to come up with other plans to diminish the threat to Israel from Gaza. Just telling Israel what not to do without offering an alternative won't work.

Honoured to have received the International Lord Byron Prize in Athens today. Said in my speech that with a large-scale war behind our borders, Europe is living through difficult times โ€“ times that require extra cooperation among Allies, partners and friends across the world. 1/

Remarkable footage from Iran. Iranian regime supporters tried to show their support for terrorist Hamas by enrolling a Palestinian flag during a soccer game, when the audience across the stadium started shouting that they can โ€œshove their Palestinian flag into their rearsโ€. The people of Iran is yearning for freedom from this Islamist Theocracy. Source of video: @khansarinia #Israel #Iran

#Hamas has just done the unthinkable โ€” & in all likelihood triggered massive war with #Israel. Ground (tactical & amassed) & airborne infiltration; 1,000s of rockets; drone-dropped armor penetrating munitions; mass kidnappings & more. 22+ Israelis killed, many other hostages.

Russians just fired ballistic missiles into the most heavily populated area in the center of Kharkiv. Zero military objective. Just genocide. Putin clearly sees diminishing western support as the greenlight.

In 5 days: - #ISIS appears to have killed ~100 soldiers in #Niger in multiple, massive attacks. - Tuareg fighters have killed 100+ soldiers in #Mali, taking a town & army base. - #ISIS has besieged #Menaka, #Mali, while #AlQaeda is besieging #Timbuktu. Exponential collapse.

Photos appeared that reportedly show the damage on the Russian Rostov-on-Don submarine caused by the Ukrainian attack on Sevastopol. It seems that repairs (which Russian ministry of defense claimed to be possible) won't help much. Glory to Ukrainian Heroes! ๐Ÿ“ท Conflict Intelligence Team (CIT)

Too many are sensationalizing this non-story about one vehicle in #Ukraine. The Ukrainian tank crew was the only irreplaceable thing here. A good tank crew is worth infinitely more than the aggregation of metal, rubber, electronics, etc that is a modern main battle tank.
Breaking: ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง Challenger 2 in #Ukraine hit a mine - which immobilised it. Mine explosion caused a fire in rear fuel tank - at which point crew evacuated. Immobilised empty #Challenger2 was then targeted by #Russia Lancet drone - all according to western Def source
