Russia says it will target French troops if they are sent to Ukraine

Russia issued a stark warning to France, stating that if President Macron were to send troops to Ukraine, they would be considered legitimate targets by the Russian military. This comes after Macron's remarks in February, where he didn't rule out the deployment of ground troops in Ukraine. Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova emphasized that any French presence in the conflict zone would make them targets. Russia's announcement of practicing the deployment of tactical nuclear weapons follows perceived threats from France, Britain, and the United States.

Russia warns of 'enormous danger' if NATO sends troops to Ukraine

The situation in Ukraine remains tense, with Russia warning against the potential deployment of NATO troops. The Kremlin views such intervention as extremely dangerous and provocative. A Ukrainian petition calling for NATO troops' assistance has garnered attention, although it's unclear if it will meet the required number of votes for a response from President Zelenskiy. NATO has supported Ukraine with weapons but has not deployed troops, a move warned against by both Biden and Putin.

Joe Biden puts arms shipment to Israel on hold amid dispute over Rafah attack

President Joe Biden paused a shipment of 1,800 2,000-pound bombs and 1,700 500-pound bombs to Israel, fearing their use in a threatened assault on Rafah. This decision, the first since the Hamas-led attack in October, reflects a growing rift between the U.S. and Israel over the war's conduct. Biden's administration is reviewing future transfers, including guidance kits for precision-guided munitions. The move comes amid U.S. frustration that Israeli warnings against a major operation in Rafah are being disregarded, risking civilian casualties.
