Ukraine soldiers fearful of future under incoherent Biden: ‘Needs to be removed urgently’
"Ukrainian soldiers are weighing in on President Joe Biden‘s bid for a second term,
following his recent gaffe during NATO’s closing press conference on Thursday, during which he mistakenly referred to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky as “Putin.”
While Zelensky brushed the gaffe off, Ukrainian soldiers told the Kyiv Independent they’re concerned about Biden’s mental fitness, and think the best thing he could do for both America and Ukraine is drop out of his race for reelection.
“I believe that [Biden] needs to be removed urgently,” offered Pavlo, a junior lieutenant at Ukraine’s 63rd Mechanized Brigade, deployed in the Donbas.
Many of the soldiers said they worried Ukraine’s top Western ally and primary source of weapons in the ongoing push back against Russia’s full-scale invasion would be unable to make governing decisions." NYP

Ukrainian Men Desperate to Escape War Are Drowning as They Flee
"It was seven weeks after Pvt. Ivan Pidmalivskiy had been due back on the front line with
Russia when rescuers pulled his lifeless body from a river on Ukraine’s western edge.
His death added to a toll of more than two dozen other men who have drowned in the River Tysa since Russia invaded, many of them fugitives from a military draft aimed at sustaining Ukraine’s war effort. Pidmalivskiy was different: He had fought for two years after returning to Ukraine from abroad to defend his country. His family had seen the war take a growing toll on the burly 32-year-old, but he never revealed the depths of his exhaustion to them. “What was happening inside his soul, I don’t know,” said his mother, Liubov Pidmalivska. Many of the men who initially mobilized to repel Russia’s invasion are dead, missing or wounded—and the rest are worn out from more than two years of brutal combat." WSJ

Israel targets top Hamas commander, mastermind in Oct. 7 attacks during air strike in Gaza
"A major Israeli airstrike in Gaza Saturday targeted the Hamas commander considered the
mastermind of the horrific Oct. 7 attacks that left 1,200 Israelis dead and triggered the war. Israel Defense Forces shot rockets at a fenced-off compound where Muhammad Deif, the commander of Hamas’s military wing, and Rafa’a Salameh, the commander of Hamas’s Khan Younis Brigade, were holed up, according to multiple reports.
The military was still waiting for intelligence to confirm whether Dief, leader of the group’s notorious Qassam Brigades, and Salameh were killed in the strike. The Saudi news channel al-Hadath reported that Dief was seriously injured and Salameh was killed, according to the Times of Israel, but their fates were not yet officially determined." NYP

Colombian special forces join Ukrainian fight with advanced weaponry
"Ukraine eagerly utilizes experienced foreigners who fight in the International Legion. Below,
you can see a unit of former special forces soldiers who came to Ukraine from Colombia, sending their greetings. They belong to the 49th Independent Assault Battalion "Carpathian Sich" and are fighting somewhere in the region of Kreminna in the Luhansk Oblast. It is also evident that they possess significant anti-tank strength capable of eliminating a large armored assault by the Russians, as there are likely boxes of additional anti-tank launchers out of frame."
