“What is happening now is the foreseeable result of international inaction,” said Beatrice Eriksson, RTC Sweden. “The continued existence of these camps is not an unfortunate by-product of conflict, it is a political decision.”

United Nations in Iraq condemns attack in IDP camp in Duhok

Baghdad, 1 July 2025 – The United Nations in Iraq strongly condemns an explosion which targeted a camp for the Internally Displaced Persons in Duhok Governorate early today.

The United Nations in Iraq calls for the protection of, and refraining from targeting, displacement camps - including the Darkar camp for Yazidi IDPs. It calls on the relevant authorities in Iraq to investigate the incident and to take the necessary and urgent measures to prevent the recurrence of such attacks, repair the damage, and to hold accountable those responsible for the attack, which is in clear violation of international law and human rights.

Almost all night long, air raid alerts sounded across Ukraine — 477 drones were in our skies, most of them Russian-Iranian Shaheds, along with 60 missiles of various types. The Russians were targeting everything that sustains life. A residential building in Smila was also hit, and a child was injured. Emergency services are responding wherever they’re needed.

Tragically, while repelling the attack, our F-16 pilot, Maksym Ustymenko, died. Today, he destroyed 7 aerial targets. My condolences to his family and brothers-in-arms. I have instructed that all the circumstances of his death be investigated. Ukrainian aviation is heroically protecting our skies. I am grateful to everyone who is defending Ukraine.

Moscow will not stop as long as it has the capability to launch massive strikes. Just this week alone, there have been more than 114 missiles, over 1,270 drones, and nearly 1,100 glide bombs. Putin long ago decided he would keep waging war, despite the world's calls for peace. This war must be brought to an end — pressure on the aggressor is needed, and so is protection. Protection from ballistic and other missiles, from drones, and from terror. Ukraine needs to strengthen its air defense — the thing that best protects lives. These are American systems, which we are ready to buy. We count on leadership, political will, and the support of the United States, Europe, and all our partners. I thank everyone who is helping.

NBC News: Iraqi law enforcement has taken a man with alleged ties to ISIS’ External Operations Office into custody at the request of the U.S. for “inciting” the New Orleans terror attack on New Year’s Day, the Iraq Supreme Judicial Court says.

The person will face trial in Iraq

Part of the damage trauma does to our nervous system is, it makes it difficult to feel something as simple as relief when an immediate stressor abates-- because our brain is convinced that letting ourselves relax or feel even momentary relief makes us vulnerable.

Will it be the same as the age for criminal responsibility?

I can't sleep. Every night this past month, Russian drones are over Kyiv, often just outside my window that I wake up to their buzzing. In a new, twisted upgrade, they’re now armed with thermobarics—fire clouds that burn up all the air, and people, in any space they hit 1/

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

All evening and night, terrorists attacked our cities and communities with missiles, drones, and guided aerial bombs, targeting the Odesa, Kharkiv, and Kyiv regions. In Kharkiv, as of now, more than 20 people have been reported injured, including an infant. Residential buildings and infrastructure were damaged.

In Odesa, strikes damaged ordinary homes. One person was killed. My condolences to the family and loved ones. Nine people were injured.

Emergency rescue operations continue in Zaporizhzhia following yesterday’s attack, which has so far claimed eight lives and injured more than 40 people, including four children.

Last night, our forces shot down four missiles and approximately 60 strike drones launched by Russia against Ukraine. I am grateful to our defenders of the sky who are doing everything possible to protect our people from this terror, and to everyone involved in rescue and assistance efforts.

Each time Russia attempts to destroy our lives, it is crucial to respond collectively and decisively at the international level to reduce and block the potential for terror. Ukraine needs strength to achieve this. This is the only way to achieve a just peace and to ending the killing of our people. Air defense, long-range capabilities, weapons packages, and sanctions against the aggressor—these are the actions required, not just words.

[MFA of Ukraine 🇺🇦 @MFA_Ukraine]

Last night, Russian forces attacked Ukrainian people in Kharkiv, Odesa, Sumy, Zaporizhzhia, and Kyiv regions, targeting deadly drones, missiles, and guided air bombs at civilian infrastructure. Namely, at ordinary residential buildings.

There are casualties and injuried.

Highlights: @OSINTua from Ukrainian Marines reports that an expected new Russian assault on Kursk began, so we're expecting geolocations soon of territory changes and new losses. No idea if the North Koreans joined it as of yet, but keep your eye open - now would be the time

Russian forces sighted in Illinka, showing a small Russian advance there. Smaller adjustments in both directions were marked near Shakhtarske, Katerynivka, Kurakhove, Toretsk, Chasiv Yar, Terny and Kupiansk

Absolute crap from Sewell re NSN not using doxxing. Last year NSN ran a nasty doxxing campaign incl releasing antifascists' names & addresses, sending unwanted items to homes, photographing homes with NSN standing outside. Dunno if sewell ordered it but his organisation did it

Desperate gunfire at an unidentified drone that attacked Kaspiysk earlier today. According to Ukrainian sources, two of the occupiers' missile ships may have been damaged in the raid.
