Violent clashes in Georgia over ‘foreign influence’ bill opposed by West
Violent clashes broke out between protesters and police in the Georgian capital of Tbilisi on Tuesday evening, after lawmakers moved forward a controversial foreign influence bill that rights groups say will restrict media freedom and civil society.
The bill cleared an initial vote in Georgia, whose government has increasingly clashed with Western officials over its rights record amid fears it is drifting toward the Kremlin. The draft law would require nongovernmental organizations and media outlets that receive more than 20 percent of their annual revenue from abroad to register as “agents of foreign influence,” which would subject them to additional scrutiny, with significant penalties possible for violations.

Intelligence officials suspect Ukraine partisans behind Nord Stream bombings, rattling Kyiv’s allies
Intelligence and diplomatic officials in the U.S. and Europe suspect that pro-Ukraine saboteurs may be responsible for explosions in September that severely damaged the Nord Stream natural gas pipelines, an attack that could erode support for Ukraine among the Western nations that have come to its defense against Russia.
Questions about Ukrainian culpability first surfaced last year when investigators found no evidence to directly tie the attacks to the Russian government. Within days of the three undersea explosions, officials in Washington and European capitals had publicly pointed the finger at the Kremlin.
But more information shared with officials in Washington and Europe suggests that a pro-Ukraine group, perhaps operating without Kyiv’s direct knowledge, may have carried out the attack, according to officials familiar with the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

Zelensky invites McCarthy to visit Ukraine amid GOP divide over stopping Russia
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has invited House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) to visit Ukraine, amid a growing divide among GOP lawmakers over whether the United States should continue to support the country’s efforts to fight off Russian invasion.
Zelensky noted that other lawmakers have visited Ukraine to witness what war has done to the country and to see firsthand “the supply routes, every shell, every bullet, every dollar [of aid],” Zelensky told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, according to a preview clip of the interview aired Wednesday morning.
“I think that Speaker McCarthy — he never visited Kyiv or Ukraine. I think it would help him with his position. When they come to us … they see the supply routes, every shell, every bullet, every dollar.”

Video of alleged POW killing angers and inspires Ukrainians
A weary man in combat fatigues, a Ukrainian flag on his arm, smokes a cigarette. He stands over a ditch in the woods, looking toward the camera.
“Well, start taking the video now,” an off-screen voice says in Russian.
“Glory to Ukraine!” the smoker responds, in Ukrainian.
A split-second later: gunshots. The smoker drops to the ground, dead. Two off-camera voices curse him in Russian.
This pixelated clip, just 12 seconds long, appears to show the execution of a Ukrainian prisoner of war. As it spread on social media, going viral on Monday, it ignited fierce anger in Ukraine, where officials and other public figures have said it shows the cruelty of invading Russian forces and reinforces the need for a war crimes investigation for flagrant violations of the Geneva Conventions.

Russia eyes pressure tactics to lure fleeing tech workers home
RIGA, Latvia — The bank worker logs into work each day around noon — 8 a.m. in Moscow — from his rental in Southeast Asia, where he enjoys tropical greenery, warm, humid air and, most important, more than 2,000 of miles of physical distance from the nearest Russian military enlistment office.
His employer, Sberbank, thinks he is home in the Russian capital, thanks to a reprogrammed router blinking in the corner, which always assigns his laptop a Russian IP address to trick the corporate systems.
The bank worker, who is in his late-20s, is one of thousands of highly skilled workers who sought safer havens in response to the war in Ukraine, and whom Russia is trying to coax home with a mix of incentives and threats. More and more the emphasis is on the threats, including potential dismissal for unauthorized remote work abroad.

Russia fires barrage of hypersonic missiles, piercing Ukrainian air defenses
KYIV, Ukraine — Russian forces launched dozens of missiles and drones across Ukraine early Thursday — including hypersonic missiles that Ukrainian air defense cannot intercept — killing at least six people and damaging critical infrastructure or residential buildings in 10 regions, including the capital.
At least five of the dead were killed at home in a village in the western Lviv region, far from the front line combat zones in the east. Two people were wounded in Kyiv, the capital.
Ukrainian officials also said the strikes cut off the last remaining external power line to the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, which is located in territory occupied by Russia, forcing the plant, Europe’s largest, to rely on generator power.

What you need to know about Russia’s hypersonic missiles
Russia launched six hypersonic missiles in the barrage of missiles and drones it unleashed across Ukraine early Thursday, the Ukrainian military said and Russia’s defense ministry confirmed.
Moscow first fired the Kinzhal hypersonic missiles on Ukraine last March and have used them several times since. Ukrainian officials say their air defenses are unable to stop them. In January, Ukrainian officials blamed one of the missiles for the deadly strike on a residential building in Dnipro that killed at least 46 people.
Arms specialists and the U.S. and U.K. governments have downplayed Russia’s hypersonic abilities — and the degree to which their use on the battlefield matters.

Traumatic stress, an invisible wound, hobbles Ukrainian soldiers
DONETSK REGION, Ukraine — After more than a year of war, Ukrainian soldiers are experiencing intense symptoms of psychological stress, including nightmares, poor sleep, guilt, anxiety and panic attacks, according to interviews with troops across Ukraine and psychologists treating them. Some soldiers have turned their weapons on themselves, dying by suicide. Others are suffering quietly in hospitals and on military bases, during visits home and on the front lines, where they face a constant threat of Russian attacks even as their symptoms are triggered or worsened by concussions from artillery shelling.
The problem is debilitating, widespread and excruciatingly difficult to treat in a country that is under constant threat of attack. Although often invisible, widespread fatigue and mental trauma among soldiers is yet another difficult challenge Ukraine’s military must confront.

Russia’s hypersonic missile attack on Ukraine highlights Western vulnerability
Russia fired a half-dozen of its rare Kinzhal hypersonic missiles at Ukraine on Thursday, part of a broader barrage that killed six people and which the Russian Defense Ministry described as revenge for an incursion into western Russia last week by a far-right Russian nationalist group fighting for Ukraine.
The use of the Kinzhals raised questions about the potential waste of some of Russia’s most expensive weaponry in an attack that appeared to make no difference in the trajectory of the war.
“The electricity was lost for several hours in a number of Ukrainian cities and trains were late,” Grey Zone, a Telegram channel associated with Russia’s Wagner mercenary group, noted sardonically.
Russia’s use of the hypersonic missiles renewed alarm over the Kremlin’s arsenal, and it highlighted that Putin has difficult-to-intercept, nuclear-capable weapons that the United States and its allies do not possess.

In Kharkiv, power has been returned to critical infrastructure and 65 percent of consumers have electricity, the regional governor said Friday. But in the northwestern city of Zhytomyr, things are “still not easy,” Zelensky noted in his nightly address.
Zelensky and thousands of Ukrainians on Friday mourned Jr. Lt. Dmytro “Da Vinci” Kotsiubailo, who was killed by Russians near Bakhmut this week. The 27-year-old was the youngest battalion commander in the Ukrainian army and had fought Moscow-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine since 2014.
Kyiv ordered the Ukrainian Orthodox Church to leave a monastery where its headquarters is located. Ukraine’s culture minister said on Telegram that the church — which only recently declared independence from the pro-war Moscow Patriarch — “violated the terms of the agreement regarding the use of state property.”
