FM Lavrov: Ukraine 'expendable country in this hybrid war against Russian Federation'

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Ukraine is not a side in a military conflict but rather an 'expendable' country in the hybrid war led by the Western countries against Russia.

"Ukraine... No one wants Ukraine. They are an expendable country in this hybrid war against Russian Federation. No one has doubts anymore", the Russian diplomat stated.

He went on by saying that "the West is ready to battle until the last Ukrainian dies" as "Ukraine is just a tool to fight Russia for the West", in his opinion.

Pentagon Absolves Itself of Blame for 2019 Syrian Civilian Airstrike

A declassified summary of an internal probe into the 2019 airstrike that killed civilians has blamed faulty Kurdish intel, not American malpractice, for the killings.

A reported 80 people were killed, of whom only 16 were initially confirmed IS fighters by US Central Command. The new document claims that figure was in fact 52.

US Army Forces Command chief Gen Michael Garrett conceded his probe did find numerous failings in reporting the incident that helped "foster the false perception that the Department is not upholding our commitment to these responsibilities."

US to Monitor Russia’s Ties to African Nations after Lukewarm Response to Ukraine Op

After more than half of the African countries chose to be neutral on UN resolutions on the Russian military action in Ukraine, US legislators are seeking to track Russian military and financial activities on the continent.

The ‘Countering Malign Russian Activities in Africa Act,’ already passed in the House, and aims to "hold to account African governments and their officials who are complicit in aiding (Russia's) malign influence and activities."

Should it be signed into law, the bill would require the State Department to “develop a strategy for countering Russian efforts to undermine democratic institutions in Africa” and annually update Congress on its implementation.

TV crew recounts surviving shelling in DPR

A camera crew, including Ruptly stringer Viktor Miroshnikov and RT journalists Valentin Gorshenin and Vladimir Batalin, were hit by a shelling at a petrol station near Dokuchaevsk, in Donetsk People's Republic on Friday.

"Once I landed, I realised that it was not a blast wave (as the blast wave doesn't come pointed), so I realised that a shell had hit me", Miroshnikov said. The reporter Valentin Gorshenin 'reacted immediately' and provided the first aid to the injured crew members.

Another man who was at the petrol station died immediately. "Shrapnel hit in the jaw and came out the other side. Literally few seconds passed and he died", the reporter said.

Former US President George W. Bush inadvertently criticized the “decision of one man to launch a wholly unjustified and brutal invasion” of Iraq... before correcting himself to refer to Ukraine.

The Grey Zone

'When I ran back, I saw... I can’t tell you. My son’s body was... in pieces, his torso was... disembowelled, and his face smashed. His wife was still alive, barely moving. Her arm severed from the body - ‘Papa, look after our kids.' Alexander tells how his son and daughter-in-law died in his arms under Ukrainian military shelling.

Alexander lives in the village of Aleksandrovka. In Donbass, this area shelled is called ‘the grey zone’. By profession, he is an electrician. After his family died, Alexander decided to devote himself to people. He is over 80, but he selflessly helps those who have trouble - fixing wires damaged after Ukrainian shelling. He does everything for free.

Alexander writes down all his calls to repair power lines damaged by shelling in a special notebook. Over the past seven years, it has already become a chronicle of the war. To learn more about Alexander’s heroic life, watch an excerpt from the film The Grey Zone.

Another area of tension is the growing influence of Greece, who might soon lay claim to most of the Aegean Sea, Ozulker said.

The former official pointed out that despite Athens’ infamous money problems, it keeps spending on US arms. “Who’s financing them? And if they are to be considered a country in debt, how is this financing assured?”
