Latest Developments: U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres calls on Black Sea Grain Initiative parties to “accelerate operations” after slowdown in ship inspections. British defense ministry says Russia has expended “significant effort” in recent weeks to build defensive lines, particularly on the approaches to Russian-occupied Crimea. Russia’s defense ministry said Wednesday its air defenses shot down three drones in the Moscow area. Russia said the drones were part of a Ukrainian attack, and that two of the drones were intercepted as they approached military warehouses. Ukraine rarely comments on attacks within Russia.

Most were from Egypt, Syria, and Pakistan. Timeline The fishing trawler set sail from Libya with up to …
Off the top of his head, Piotr Stasinski doesn’t know how many lawsuits his newspaper, Gazeta Wyborcza, has faced over the years. After some thought, the longtime editor at the Polish daily told VOA the number is around 100 since the conservative Law and Justice Party came to power in 2015. About one-third of those cases are still active, he estimates, adding that he believes they are designed to silence the newspaper and its critical coverage. But Gazeta Wyborcza is not alone. “There is an avalanche of lawsuits against independent media,” Stasinski told VOA, as he spoke about the …

Albanian police on Tuesday raided a camp home to members of an Iranian opposition movement, with local media reporting that the group is suspected of orchestrating cyberattacks against foreign institutions. The Ashraf-3 camp northwest of Tirana has been home for a decade to thousands of members of the People’s Mujahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI), exiled opponents of the government in Tehran. Police said in a statement they had acted on the orders of the Albanian judiciary due to the “violation of agreements and commitments” made by the group “when they settled in Albania solely for humanitarian purposes.” Local media reported …

The synod, as it is known, is a key priority of Pope Francis, reflecting his vision of a church that is more about the faithful rank-and-file than …
