Russia’s engagement with the Taliban remains crucial. It has the wherewithal to arm and prop up the Taliban militarily. But Russia’s military aid must be seen as part of its broader efforts to stabilise Afghanistan.

Multiple attacks on health have been reported in the Iranian capital, Tehran, in recent days amid the escalating conflict in the Middle East.
The Pasteur Institute in Iran sustained significant damage and was rendered unable to continue delivering health services.
The Institute was established in 1920 and has been operating for over a century in multiple areas of medical research. It plays an important role in protecting and promoting population health, including in emergencies. Two of its departments have been working with @WHO as collaborating centres.
In addition, the Delaram Sina Psychiatric Hospital sustained significant damage due to a strike on 29 March, and the Tofigh Daru pharmaceutical facility, which produced medicines for treating cancer and multiple sclerosis, was damaged in another attack on 31 March.
No casualties were reported from these incidents.
Since 1 March, WHO has verified over 20 attacks on health care in Iran, resulting in at least nine deaths, including that of an infectious diseases health worker and a member of the Iranian Red Crescent Society.
Attacks on health have also been recorded outside Tehran, including on 21 March, when an explosion nearby Imam Ali Hospital in Andimeshk, Khuzestan province, led to the facility’s evacuation and cessation of services.
The conflict in Iran, and the region, is impacting the delivery of health services and the safety of health workers, patients, and civilians present at health facilities.
Peace is the best medicine.
A British minister on Sunday dismissed Israeli claims that Iran could target London, saying there is “no assessment to substantiate” such a suggestion
