#News #Ukraine #Russia During an informal European Union (EU) Thursday meeting in Toledo, Spain, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba demanded that critics of Kyiv's tactics in its counter-offensive against Russia's invasion “shut up,” saying that they were spitting in the faces of Ukrainian soldiers. "Criticizing the slow pace of (the) counter-offensive equals spitting into the face of (the) Ukrainian soldier who sacrifices his life every day, moving forward and liberating one kilometre of Ukrainian soil after another," Kuleba said. "I would recommend all critics to shut up, come to Ukraine and try to liberate one square centimetre by themselves," Kuleba said, standing alongside Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares. Addressing ministers separately, Kuleba pointed out that his country doesn’t only need more weapons in its ongoing war, but also armoured ambulances to evacuate wounded soldiers. #GlobalNews #Ukraine #Russia

#News #Pakistan #Protests Hundreds of women took to the streets in Pakistan’s biggest city, Karachi, on Thursday to protest against soaring electricity prices. About 1000 women, holding banners and placards with some even burning electricity bills, gathered on one of the main streets of the city in a protest organized by major Islamic party Jamaat-e-Islami. There have been sporadic protests across the country after consumers received July power bills following a recent increase in electricity prices and taxes, which was a key demand of the International Monetary Fund for revival of a long-stalled financial assistance package.

#News #Canada #TruckerConvoy Canada's Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc outlined some of the progress done in response to recommendations following the Emergencies Act inquiry in a letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau Thursday. But the letter makes clear that much of the government's response remains a work in progress. The report by Commissioner Paul Rouleau was a result of weeks of testimony and analysis of documents, ending with him concluding that the Liberal government had met the threshold to invoke the Emergencies Act in the winter of 2022 to respond to the “Freedom Convoy” demonstrations. Rouleau made 56 recommendations in his Feb. 17, 2023, report summarizing the inquiry, including many targeting a lack of action and coordination among policing, intelligence and security agencies.
