Ukraine Marks Somber Anniversary as Zelenskyy Vows Resolve Amid Fractured Allied Support

Ukrainians pay tribute to victims of the Russian invasion, on the day marking the fourth anniversary of the full-scale Russian invasion. As Ukraine enters another year of full‑scale war, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy used the anniversary to deliver a message of defiance and endurance. Speaking to the nation, he emphasized that Ukraine’s determination to resist Russia has not weakened, even as the conflict grinds on with no clear end in sight. Zelenskyy highlighted the sacrifices made by civilians and soldiers alike, framing Ukraine’s struggle as a fight for national survival and democratic values.

Escalation in Gaza: Israeli Strikes Kill 40, Tanks Advance in the North

 

The conflict in Gaza has intensified as Israeli military strikes have killed at least 40 Palestinians across the Gaza Strip. The Israeli forces have tightened their grip around Jabalia in the north, engaging in fierce battles with Hamas-led fighters.

The escalation comes amid a broader offensive that has seen Israeli tanks advancing into northern Gaza, including the towns of Beit Lahiya and Beit Hanoun. The Israeli military’s stated aim is to eliminate Hamas fighters regrouping in these areas.

Palestinian health officials reported multiple casualties from Israeli airstrikes, including 11 people near Al-Falouja in Jabalia and 10 others in Bani Suhaila in eastern Khan Younis. Additional strikes destroyed homes in Gaza City and the Nuseirat camp, resulting in further loss of life.

The United Nations has expressed concern over the humanitarian impact, noting that the Israeli military appears to be cutting off northern Gaza from the rest of the enclave. This has raised fears of a potential forced displacement of residents, a claim Israel denies.

As the conflict continues, the international community watches closely, urging both sides to prioritize the safety and well-being of civilians caught in the crossfire.
