“Russian forces are not capable of big breakthroughs on the battlefield in Ukraine, whereas Kyiv is inflicting significant damage on Russia with strikes deep into its territory. And we don't have any other indications or reasons to believe that Russia has the capabilities, the strength to make big breakthroughs. Russia had launched another offensive in Ukraine during the spring and summer, but so far [with] only marginal gains. Russia is likely to continue to push along the front lines and launch airstrikes in Ukraine. But what we have seen is that the Ukrainians have been able to hold the line. They have been able to continue to inflict heavy losses on the Russian invaders, both along the front line, but also by deep strikes.”

“As Israeli military strikes continued last night in the Middle Area, Al-Aqsa hospital is barely coping with the influx of patients and dead people. It's a scene of devastation. This hospital is a sinking ship. The scene inside the emergency room of Al-Aqsa hospital is even worse than yesterday. They had no chance to re-organise after yesterday's mass influx of casualties, and now they have been struck with another. And yet, the medical staff is saying 'we are not giving up on our patients', and I can definitely see that. I am just not sure for how long it will be sustainable.”
