Ukraine war updates: Western leaders slam Putin’s election win as ‘illegitimate’

Russian election farce

Russian President Vladimir Putin swept through the country’s election over the weekend to secure a fifth term in power, claiming 87.97% of the vote in a contest with no real opposition.

Western leaders condemned the poll as “illegitimate” and neither free nor fair, while Putin hailed the result and turnout as proof of his country’s democracy. Anti-Putin protesters staged demonstrations in cities around the country to express their rejection of the longtime Russian leader, who now has another six years in power.

Ukraine’s Air Force said it downed 17 out of 22 Iranian-made Shahed attack drones sent from Russia over a number of Ukrainian cities overnight. It reported that six people were injured and warned of further danger from ballistic missiles in the northeastern region of Kharkiv.

‘Catastrophic levels of hunger’ in Gaza mean famine is imminent, says aid coalition

Ctrastrophic hunger in Gazaa

Famine is imminent in northern Gaza with people suffering “catastrophic levels of hunger”, a coalition of aid groups has warned.

The situation was called “man-made starvation”, as the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC), a group that includes the World Food Programme and the World Health Organization, said that 1.1 million people, half of Gaza’s population, faced famine.

The IPC report came as Philippe Lazzarini, the head of Unrwa – the UN’s agency for Palestinian refugees – said he had been denied entry to Gaza where he was due to work on improving the humanitarian response. Lazzarini said the Israeli authorities prevented him from entering Gaza on Monday. Unrwa, the largest aid organisation working in Gaza, is coordinating aid trucks entering via the Rafah and Kerem Shalom crossings.

“This man-made starvation under our watch is a stain on our collective humanity,” Lazzarini wrote on X. “Too much time was wasted, all land crossings must open now. Famine can be averted with political will.”

Russia says Ukraine launched far-ranging drone attacks on final day of Russia’s presidential vote

Ukraine attacks inside RussiaUkraine launched a new wave of attacks inside Russian territory Sunday, killing at least two people, including a teenager, according to local officials, as Russians cast ballots on the final day of a presidential vote set to extend President Vladimir Putin’s rule for another six years.

Authorities also said that a drone fell on a refinery in the Krasnodar region, sparking a blaze that was extinguished a few hours later. A worker at the refinery died of a heart attack, officials said.

Refineries and oil terminals have been targets of Ukrainian drone attacks in recent days, according to Russian officials, part of stepped up assaults on Russian territory, including long-range drone attacks and alleged incursions by Ukraine-based Russian proxies, as Putin heads for near-certain reelection in Russia.

Putin basks in election win that was never in doubt even as Russians quietly protest

Putin wins election that was never in doubt

Russian President Vladimir Putin basked in a victory early Monday that was never in doubt, as partial election results showed him easily securing a fifth term after facing only token challengers and harshly suppressing opposition voices.

With little margin for protest, Russians crowded outside polling stations at noon Sunday, on the last day of the election, apparently heeding an opposition call to express their displeasure with Putin. Still, the impending land slide underlined that Russian leader would accept nothing less than full control of the country's political system as he extends his nearly quarter-century rule for six more years.

Putin hailed the early results as an indication of "trust" and "hope" in him — while critics saw them as another reflection of the preordained nature of the election./

These Are The Best Countries For Work-Life Balance

Work-life balanceIn this post-pandemic era, many employees work remotely. Logging on from home can help people manage their professional and personal responsibilities, allowing someone to pick up their children from school, for example, or squeeze in a workout during a lunch break.

But remote work has also blurred the line that marks where the workplace ends and home begins, with many workers hopping back online throughout the evening and into the night to complete their assigned tasks before a deadline. The struggle to achieve that elusive work-life balance remains.

“We want to raise money in support of congressmen who support Ukraine,” Sunden told The Hill. The PAC aims to raise “money for their campaigns.”
