Russia shocks the battlefield. New Ukraine war strategy changes the fight overnight

Image
  Ukrainian servicemen gather around an infantry fighting vehicle on a road outside Bakhmut in February 2023. The city was seized by Russia three months later. Yevhenii Zavhorodnii/Reuters Introduction. A Battlefield Lost in the Mist The road leading to Pokrovsk looks like a scene from a world that has already ended. From a curtain of thick morning fog, a column of Russian fighters rolls forward. Some travel on battered motorcycles and mopeds, engines rattling across broken fields. Others cling to the open bed of a pickup truck scraping past ruins. One vehicle appears modified with a cage-like metal shield, the kind of improvised armor that reflects a new phase of the war. This strange procession is not a desperate retreat. It is the shape of Russia’s evolving strategy in eastern Ukraine, where speed and stealth are now replacing brute force. The city of Pokrovsk, once busy with life, has now become another shattered symbol of resistance. And if it falls, it may mark Russia’s most ...

Image
  Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi and Chinese leader Xi Jinping shake hands prior to their meeting on the sidelines of the APEC Summit in South Korea last month. The Asahi Shimbun/Getty Images Article Beijing has issued a new travel caution urging Chinese nationals to postpone trips to Japan, escalating a diplomatic dispute triggered by recent comments from Japan’s prime minister regarding Taiwan. The advisory marks one of the strongest responses so far from Beijing following remarks that linked a potential conflict in Taiwan to the security of Japan. According to a statement released by China’s Foreign Ministry, recent comments from Tokyo have, in its view, created an atmosphere of hostility that could expose Chinese citizens in Japan to unnecessary safety risks. The ministry stated that Chinese citizens should avoid visiting Japan for the time being and urged those already there to remain vigilant.

In his post, Trump said he wants Bondi and the Justice Department, along with the FBI, to investigate Epstein’s dealings with several public figures, including Bill Clinton, Larry Summers, Reid Hoffman, and institutions like JPMorgan Chase. Trump said the purpose is to determine the nature of their connections to Epstein. Bondi later confirmed she would move forward with the investigation and assigned Jay Clayton, the top federal prosec...
