Thank you to the American authorities for finally setting Assange free. I understand some of you wanted to punish him for much longer & in potentially more draconian ways; it is to your credit that you have relented.

Thank you to the Australian authorities for working with the American authorities in this matter & thank you to British authorities for keeping Assange alive & for any contributions you have made towards his emancipation.

John Swinney: Nigel Farage is a 'traitor' to the people of the UK

The First Minister said Farage’s comments were “some of the most appalling remarks I’ve heard, literally in my life”.

Swinney said Farage’s comments were of “an extraordinary degree of absurdity and danger”.

He continued: “Vladimir Putin has voluntarily invaded a sovereign country, and nobody provoked him to, nobody was a threat to Vladimir Putin.

Russian soldiers who executed Ukrainian POWs near Robotyne identified

A video taken in the second half of May captured Russian troops executing four surrendering Ukrainian soldiers near #Robotyne, a front-line village in the southern Zaporizhzhia Oblast.

The Ukrainian soldiers were made to lie down on their faces, after which they were shot in the back, the video shows. Ukraine's military intelligence stressed that this act constitutes a war crime.

This comes as yet another evidence of Russian war crimes committed against Ukrainian prisoners, both military and civilian, throughout the full-scale war.

Russia posts abducted Ukrainian children on government-linked adoption sites

Four children who were abducted and deported to Russia at the beginning of the full-scale invasion were possibly put up for adoption on a government-linked adoption site, according to an investigation released by the Financial Times (FT) on June 12.

One of the children had a new Russian name and a different age than the one listed on their Ukrainian document, and another had a Russianized version of their name. None of the information about the children indicated that they came from Ukraine.

The FT's investigation, which used facial recognition tools, public records, and interviews with family members of the abducted children, identified four Ukrainian children aged eight to 15 on the Russian government-linked adoption website usynovite.ru. The children were reportedly abducted from state-care homes.

A recent #UN #investigation has concluded that Israel is committing war crimes in Gaza, which include #extermination, #collectivePunishment, and the use of #starvation as a method of #warfare.

Not to forget using aid truck as the mean of military operations which is clearly made as a crime in Geneva convention.

Question is, will it have any impact on the favorable relationship between US, UK and EU with Israel? Or it's going to be one another crimes comitted by Israel that goes unpunished.

Ombudsman asks UN, Red Cross to investigate videos of alleged abuses of Ukrainian #POWs

The videos which are spreading on social media show actions that violate the Geneva Conventions and should be used as further proof of Russian violations of international humanitarian law, Lubinets said in his Telegram post on June 2.

The Geneva Conventions require the humane treatment of prisoners of war.

"Unfortunately, such treatment of Ukrainian prisoners of war is not an exception to the rules, but a common tactic for the occupiers,"

Ukraine can use our F-16s to strike Russian territory, Danish foreign minister says

"We are talking about an opportunity to weaken the aggressor by taking _military installations out onto Russian territory_."

"It is completely within the rules of war that a country that is attacked must be able to answer for itself," Rasmussen said.

"There is also no Ukrainian interest in taking over the kind of warfare you have from the Russian side, where you go after residential properties," referring to Russia's indiscriminate attacks on civilians.

#NATO Parliamentary Assembly supports Ukraine's right to hit targets inside Russia using Western arms

NATO member states should "support Ukraine in its international right to defend itself by lifting some restrictions on the use of weapons provided by NATO allies to strike legitimate targets in Russia," the declaration said.

"Ukraine must be provided with all that it needs, as quickly as possible and for as long as it takes for it to win."

The declaration was approved by a majority of the 281 lawmakers in the NATO Parliamentary Assembly and received support from NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg, who said that "the right to #self-defense includes hitting legitimate targets outside Ukraine."

War crimes warning: According to Israeli media and news groups, Israeli occupation forces are preparing to launch an attack on Kamal Adwan #Hospital in northern Gaza.

The hospital has been under siege for the past week, and Israel has targeted it with multiple shells, terrorizing most of the patients and displaced Palestinians inside, causing them to flee. Many patients and doctors remain in the hospital, unable to evacuate due to their injuries.

Around 100 civilians remain in Vovchansk, Russians have threatened to shoot them

Around 100 Ukrainian civilians remain in the embattled town of Vovchansk, but Russian forces refuse to allow them to leave and have threatened to shoot them, Kharkiv Oblast Governor Oleh Syniehubov said on state television on May 21.

Syniehubov said on May 20 that more than 10,500 civilians had been evacuated from Kharkiv Oblast amid the renewed Russian onslaught.

The governor said on May 21 that those who remained in Vovchansk would be evacuated at the soonest possible opportunity but that 100 civilians had been effectively "taken #hostage" by Russian troops and could not leave.

Israel calls on ‘civilised nations’ to boycott #ICC arrest warrants against its leaders

Government urges ‘free world’ to oppose warrants against Netanyahu and defence minister for war crimes in Gaza

Israel has urged what it called “nations of the civilised world” to refuse to implement any international criminal court arrest warrants issued against its leaders.

Karim Khan, the chief prosecutor of the world’s top court, announced on Monday that his office had applied to a pre-trial panel for arrest warrants for three senior #Hamas officials, as well as the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin #Netanyahu, and his defence minister, Yoav #Gallant, for war crimes and crimes against humanity during the Hamas attack of 7 October and the ensuing seven-month-old war in Gaza.

Not from the Onion: US House Speaker Mike Johnson called on the Biden administration to "immediately demand the dissolution of the ICC."

Otherwise, according to him, the ICC “will become the owner of unprecedented power” and will then begin issuing arrest warrants for “American politicians, diplomats and military personnel.”

At the same time, last year both Congress and the White House welcomed the issuance of an arrest warrant by the ICC for Russian President Vladimir Putin. Biden said at the time that the warrant was “justified.” And at the end of 2022, Congress passed a law allowing ICC officials to conduct “investigative activities” in the United States, but only “related” to Ukraine, although Russia, like Israel and the United States, are not state parties to this court and do not recognize its jurisdiction .
