Will Hezbollah respond to the Israel's latest assassination of one of its leaders?

"This latest attack, far from insignificant, adds to a series of blows the party has absorbed. Its forced passivity now leaves it in a precarious, if not embarrassing, position."

Giant gaps between the Witkoff-Dmitriev “peace plan” for Ukraine, which was unacceptable to Kyiv, and a new European draft, which the Kremlin won’t discuss, make it clear the war is unlikely to end soon.

Among the 28 points of the initial Washington/Kremlin plan, one was a general amnesty for war crimes.

This video footage shows Russian troops killing five Ukrainian soldiers, prisoners of war.

This adds to the several hundreds such crimes committed by Russia.

“Putin’s propaganda has lost this generation of people.”

How an 18-year-old street musician became a threat to the Kremlin - in a crackdown that had seen even one of Putin’s former advisors labelled a “foreign agent.”

The Witkoff-Dmitriev plan puts Zelensky in a familiar spot. He can accept Moscow’s terms, or Ukraine can keep fighting a war few think it can win.

It’s the same choice Ukrainians faced in February 2022 - so don’t expect the answer from Kyiv to be any different this time.

My analysis
U.S. peace plan for Ukraine bears strong resemblance to Putin’s terms
The 28-point proposal finds Zelensky in a vulnerable political position, hurt by a corruption scandal

So these “linked outbreaks” are not a sign of trouble to come.

That trouble arrived months ago. Now the dissonance between reality and what's been reported is becoming too great to uphold the illusion.

Here I explain why the new US proposals would amount to Ukraine's capitulation, and why this is not something that Kyiv is considering at this moment.

This comes following difficult weeks, with russian strikes, corruption scandals & a dire frontline situation.
