In a significant development, Russia announced that its troops have liberated the village of Starytsya near Vovchansk in the Kharkiv region as part of a new offensive launched last week. The Russian Defense Ministry stated that their units have advanced deep into Ukrainian defenses. This comes as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky highlights the urgent need for advanced air defense systems, revealing that Kyiv currently has only a quarter of the required defenses.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has sharply criticised Western countries for imposing restrictions on the use of donated arms, accusing them of being "afraid" of both a Russian and Ukrainian defeat. In a candid interview with AFP on Friday, Zelensky expressed his frustration over the conditions placed on the use of long-range weapons supplied to Kiev. “They can fire any weapons from their territory at ours. This is the biggest advantage that Russia has. We can’t do anything to their systems, which are located on the territory of Russia, with Western weapons,” Zelensky stated in the interview aired on Saturday. This restriction significantly hampers Ukraine's ability to retaliate against Russian forces effectively.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has ratified a new law allowing certain prisoners to be paroled if they agree to enlist in the country's military. This legislation, aimed at bolstering Ukraine's military ranks, comes in response to the significant challenges the nation faces in its conflict with Russia. The details of the new law were published on the official website of the Ukrainian parliament, the Verkhovna Rada.
Initially submitted to the legislature in March, the bill is part of a broader effort by Ukraine to replenish its military forces. The legislation enables Ukrainian inmates to voluntarily enlist on a contractual basis and serve as long as martial law is in effect. The law specifically applies to convicts with three years or less remaining on their original prison sentences.

'The Guardian' reports that over
4,000 species from around the world
are the targets of wildlife traffickers. .
According to a United Nations report,
this causes "untold harm upon nature.".
The report found that 40% of all
the animals targeted are on the red list
of threatened or nearly threatened species.
The UN Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) report
found that the trade, driven by demand for medicine,
pets and trophies, is active in over 80% of countries.
Despite gaps in knowledge
about the full extent of wildlife
trafficking and associated crime,
there is sufficient evidence to
conclude that this remains
a significant global problem
far from being resolved, UNODC report, via 'The Guardian'.

Wildlife trade was found to be the driving

Wildlife crime inflicts untold harm
upon nature, and it also jeopardizes
livelihoods, public health, good
governance and our planet’s
ability to fight climate change, Ghada Waly, Executive director of UNODC, via 'The Guardian'.
Researchers warn that wildlife crime is often
linked to organized crime, with corruption playing a critical role in impeding efforts to stop trafficking. .
'The Guardian' reports that this corruption can
take the form of bribes paid to inspectors and
government officials in exchange for fake permits.
