🐣 🇻🇦 🇵🇹 In Portugal, Pope Francis challenges Europe to invest in young people, not weapons
He went on to mention other key issues challenging Europe today. He singled out the fact that “in today’s evolved world, paradoxically, the defense of human life [is] menaced by a creeping utilitarianism has now become a priority.”
“I think of so many unborn children,” he continued, “and older persons who are abandoned, of the great challenge of welcoming, protecting, promoting and integrating those who come from afar and knock on our doors, and the isolation felt by so many families that find it hard to bring children into the world and raise them.”
Faced with this reality, Pope Francis said: “Here too, we might ask: Where are you sailing, Europe and the West, with the discarding of the elderly, walls of barbed wire, massive numbers of deaths at sea and empty cradles? Where are you sailing if, before life’s ills, you offer hasty but mistaken remedies: like easy access to death, a convenient answer that seems ‘sweet’ but is in fact more bitter than the waters of the sea?” Portugal’s government voted last year to decriminalize euthanasia, joining the growing number of European countries that have legalized or are debating legalizing assisted suicide.
Pope Francis, who is exploring ways to end the conflict in Ukraine and in other parts of the world, told his audience: “Looking with deep love for Europe, and in the spirit of dialogue that distinguishes this continent, we must ask her: Where are you sailing if you do not show the world paths of peace, creative ways for bringing an end to the war in Ukraine and the many other conflicts that are causing so much bloodshed?”
Young people "urge us to make their dreams come true, and they are taking to the streets, not to cry out in anger, but to share the hope of the Gospel." He reminded them of the words of one of Portugal’s most famous poets, Fernando Pessoa (1888-1935), who said, “to set sail is necessary, to live is not…. What is important is to create.”

Ukrainian-Russian war. Day 527:
During the last few days there have been reports that the Ukrainian Army retook the last Russian positions west of Zherebets river. The truth is that the front has remained unchanged during the last days as Russian troops managed to stop the new Ukrainian reinforcements. In parallel, Russian Army resumed attacks on various axes of the northeastern front, making small advances.
In social networks the lie of the "Russian offensive of 100,000 troops" continues. Nothing could be further from the truth, as it has been said on numerous occasions Russian army is on the defensive & any Russian offensive of great caliber is not foreseen in the coming months. What we are observing these days is a series of attacks aimed at diverting Ukrainian troops from southern & eastern front where they were making a series of territorial gains in recent weeks. As a consequence Ukrainian army has reduced its offensive actions while waiting for new reserve troops from the center & west of the country.

On the other hand, the possible response of the Ukrainian troops is an increase of activities on the border between Kharkov and Belgorod in order to divert Russian resources towards their border in view of the possibility of further incursions into their territory.

Ukrainian-Russian war. Day 528:
Situation on Luhansk front: Recent video footage by RIA Novosti shows Russian Artillery targeting the remaining Ukrainian soldiers in the village of Novoselivs'ke/Новоселівське (49°31'28.2"N 37°56'58.1"E), which was retaken by Russian Army after securing the northern and southern outskirts as a result of the latest attacks. During the last weeks the town was located in the grey area, with Ukrainian Army trying to establish again a presence in the western hangars, but failing continuously. The capture of the neighbouring positions forced Ukrainian troops to retreat westwards in the last hours to better positions close to the border with Kharkov oblast.

The fire area is three squares. There were no casualties.
What caused the fire is still unknown.
Ukrainian channels, following the nationwide strikes — maybe mistakenly — reported that such a thing actually was due to missile/UAV strikes by Ukrainian Army against the Russian city.

🇺🇸 🗳 📹 — WMUR: Ron DeSantis promises to combat antisemitism if elected president
— "During the “Conversation with the Candidate” segment that aired exclusively online, Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis was asked by voter Laura Landerman-Garber about what his response was to displays of antisemitism.
She said swastika flags were being waved alongside DeSantis 2024 signs, to which the Florida governor said, “Those are not true supporters of mine.”
DeSantis defended his record on policies to protect the Jewish community, saying he sent funding to increase security at Jewish day schools and beefed up Holocaust education efforts.
He also said he feels Florida is the most pro-Israel state in the country.
He added, “We are going to defeat the scourge of antisemitism.”"
