On 12 October, the EU adopted its largest set of listings to date: 826 companies at the core of Russia's military industry and 743 of their CEOs.

Our collective responsibility is to demonstrate in practice that two states living side by side is the key to lasting peace for Palestine and Israel, and for the region as a whole.

Grain from Ukraine feeds people all over the world.

But Russia is blocking exports through the Black Sea and is deliberately causing global food insecurity.

The EU is calling for attacks to stop and grain to flow again.

Food must never be used as a weapon of war.
