"UNSC to Vote on Israel-Hamas Truce as US Vetoes Persist"

The draft text, which has been watered down to appease the United States, now calls for an "urgent suspension of hostilities" instead of a "lasting cessation".

Ukraine condemns Russia for beheading Ukrainian soldiers, compares them to ISIS.

Ukrainian officials have condemned Russian forces after a video circulating on social media appeared to show the beheading of a Ukrainian prisoner with a knife. Ukraine’s Foreign Minister described the video as “horrific” and labelled Russia “worse than ISIS”. The European Union also pledged to hold war criminals to account. The footage comes days after a separate video emerged on pro-Russian social media channels that appeared to show the bodies of two decapitated Ukrainian soldiers lying next to a destroyed military vehicle.
