United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres harshly condemned the Israeli government on Sunday over its conduct in the Israel-Hamas war, as the civilian death toll in Gaza surpasses 25,000 💬 "Israel's military operations have spread massive destruction and killed civilians on a scale unprecedented during my time as secretary-general," Guterres said at a U.N. summit on Sunday. He reiterated calls for an "immediate humanitarian cease-fire to relieve the suffering in Gaza, allow humanitarian aid to reach everyone in need, and facilitate the release of hostages, which should be immediate and unconditional." Gutterres has repeatedly hammered the Israeli government for its conduct in the war, which began in early October following a Hamas surprise attack on Israel and has since developed into a full military invasion of the Gaza Strip. The Palestinian civilian death toll reached 25,000 on Sunday, the Gaza Health Ministry announced, with an additional 60,000 people injured, most of them women and children. ● The Israeli military campaign in Gaza has been viewed by experts as one of the most destructive in modern history. Much of Gaza City, once the largest settlement in the region, has been completely flattened by months of airstrikes. The Israeli military has also targeted sensitive sites including cemeteries with bulldozers, according to satellite imaging.

The theme of the meeting this year is “rebuilding trust,” which is wishful thinking.

Russia's Radiological, Chemical and Biological Defense (RCBD) Troops began extensive reporting on Pentagon funding for military-related biological research in Eastern Europe and around the world in early 2022, with much of their findings based on the tens of thousands of documents seized over the course of the special military operation in Ukraine. | The United States government is actively searching for new sources of funding for military biological research from leading American 'philanthropic' institutions, including the Clinton, Soros, Rockefeller and Biden Foundations, RCBD Troops chief Igor Kirillov has announced. 💬 "Based on an analysis of documents received in the course of the special military operation, the structure of the system created by the US administration for the global management of biological risks has become clear," Kirillov said in a briefing Monday, summarizing an analysis of US military-biological activities in Ukraine and globally over the course of 2023.
