  • Louise Wateridge
    Louise Wateridge “Everywhere you look now in west Rafah this morning, families are packing up. Streets are significantly emptier. UNRWA estimates 150,000 people have now fled Rafah. New areas have been issued evacuation orders towards central Rafah in south Gaza and Jabalia in North Gaza.” 1 hour ago
  • Donald Tusk
    Donald Tusk “The Polish-Belarusian border is a unique place due to the pressure of illegal immigration. In fact, we are dealing with a progressing hybrid war. I want there to be no doubts here - a country with increasingly aggressive intentions towards Poland, such as Belarus, is co-organising this practice on the Polish border. It is not only Poland's internal border, but also the EU border. Therefore, I have no doubt that all of Europe will have to ... invest in its security by investing in Poland's eastern border and in the security of our border.” 1 hour ago
  • Jakub Palowski
    Jakub Palowski “A direct attack on Kharkiv is quite unlikely because it is a big city. Ukraine currently has a mobilised army and, in the absence of a surprise, the defence of such a city would be quite effective. It is hard to tell what Russia wants to achieve in the Kharkiv region. It might be the opening of a new full-scale front, similar to the Donbas region; actions that would aim at capturing a limited area and accumulating Ukrainian troops in one place, so that they cannot be used elsewhere; or creating conditions for further offensives.” 1 hour ago
  • Yevgen Shapoval
    Yevgen Shapoval “Some people are panicking, but not like the occupiers would like them to. Yes, explosions are heard close up and the situation is not easy. It is difficult especially psychologically. We must be consistent and believe in Ukraine's defence forces. So even if they try to do something, to attack, they will get the response they deserve. Yes - some local tactical movements and even some larger-scale offensive operations are possible. But as for Kharkiv, I don't believe it can be captured.” 1 hour ago
  • Georgios Petropoulos
    Georgios Petropoulos “We simply have no tents, we have no blankets, no bedding, none of the items that you would expect a population on the move to be able to get from the humanitarian system.” 1 hour ago
  • Tal Beeri
    Tal Beeri “So far, the IDF has not struck Hezbollah's significant systems. Even if the government pursues a diplomatic agreement, it will only postpone the war that will break out whenever Hezbollah chooses and on its terms-by my estimation, no later than the end of 2026. No political or diplomatic agreement will prevent Hezbollah from continuing to operate. Any such agreement only means buying time, with Israel being the only side likely to adhere to it, while Hezbollah waits for an opportune moment to initiate a full-scale confrontation.” 17 hours ago

“Many Russians have arrived in Georgia in recent days. Do you think we are tourists, or it's just that we got the calendar wrong and decided that it's July-September? Or that we all suddenly and desperately wanted Saperavi and khachapuri? We are not tourists, dear citizens of Georgia. We are refugees. Personally, I was wanted by the police in Russia for distributing anti-war petitions … [We] ran not from bullets, bombs and missiles, but from prison. If I wrote what I write now while in Russia, I would inevitably go to prison for 15-20 years. We feel pain, shame, horror, disgust, anger and powerlessness. We cannot influence what [Russian President Vladimir] Putin is doing under the name of the Russian Federation, destroying both Ukraine and Russia. We can only resist it by being abroad … Personally, in recent years, I have lost the opportunity to work in the Russian Federation as a journalist, as a teacher, as an organiser of public lectures and discussions, and as a researcher in social sciences. It is impossible to fight this from within Russia now.”
