The Russian Armed Forces' Chief of Staff says Moscow troops have halted Kiev's attempted advance deep into the Kursk region, inflicting heavy losses on the Ukrainian forces. The Ukrainian military intelligence spokesperson who first admitted Kiev's support for militant groups in West Africa is now retracting that statement, saying he did not say anything of the sort, that's after Niger and Mali cut diplomatic ties with the state. Turkiye has officially submitted its request to join the South African genocide case against Israel in the International Court of Justice - which is now set to be approved.
