International Crew Successfully Launches to Space Station

Two Russian cosmonauts and an American astronaut successfully docked with the International Space Station (ISS) after launching from Kazakhstan. The crew will join the existing team on the ISS, which includes Russians, Americans, a Japanese astronaut, and a representative from the European Space Agency. The mission comes amidst strained relations between Russia and the United States due to the conflict in Ukraine. The ISS serves as a rare venue for cooperation between the two countries.
