Incredible what the Israeli passenger Yaniv Hayun reports about the details of the storming of the cockpit of the Flydubai plane. (translated)

The Israeli statement that the co-pilot acted as a terrorist sounds credible. Let's see what the Saudis say. In the Germanwings death flight years ago, the mental disorder of the German pilot was decisive. A jihadist once flew a plane from New York to death. (translated)

The fascist onslaught in D continues, but does not break through. That would be my interpretation. Two leftist regional governments (Berlin, MVP) will be the result of today. (translated)

Good argumentation on why the conviction against Kosovo's former president Hashem Thaci for crimes during his time as UCK leader is in a different dimension than the genocide verdict for the Bosnian Serb leader Ratko Mladic. (translated)

Remarkable: Marine Le Pen's shift against Russia, in favor of solidarity with Europeans and Ukraine. She wants to become president. When will Kickl abandon his pro-Russian stance? (translated)

Bad. Israel definitely urgently needs US megabombs :(. A country that struggles to deal with war crimes confirmed by brave Israeli filmmakers and journalists. (translated)

With the advance of the pro-Iranian Houthis and the blocked Strait of Hormuz, the Saudis can no longer ship oil. The Iranians rejoice, the world economy groans, and the USA does not know what to do. (translated)

That a far-right government cuts off its own state protection from partners has been experienced by Austria under Interior Minister Kickl. (translated)

Multikulturelles Nachtleben in Sarajevo. Dass heute Ratko Mladic, der die Stadt jahrelang terrorisiert hat, in Den Haag gestorben ist, wissen alle. Bewegt begrenzt. Bücher über ihn? No, heisst es in der Buchhandlung. Dafür vieles zum Überleben des Genozids von Srebrenica https://t.co/DTxZv0ZKvT #Sarajevo #Genozid #Multikulturalismus

At the memorial for the victims of the genocide against the Muslim Bosniaks in Srebrenica, which I coincidentally visit on the day of Mladic's death, the consequences of his fury are omnipresent. The impressive museum in Bosnia is far too unknown to us. (translated)

Spain allows underage refugees from Ceuta into the country. Their parents could not be found. A normal human reaction to a dire situation. (translated)

This cannot be the case: a question, no matter how happily it is formulated, should be considered a crime at an international press conference with Zelensky? Purely a Kremlin staging to intimidate journalists. (translated)

It is actually outrageous that Trump is making dozens of employees and journalists take an apparently life-threatening flight that he himself is avoiding. More will come to light. (translated)

Obsession with immigration distorts the political coordinates. Danish Social Democrat in a front with Italy's post-fascist. (translated)

There are terrible options in the Russian-Ukrainian war. What happens if Ukraine mistakenly hits a school in Russia, like the USA did in Iran, asks author Lieven? Everything seems to be getting worse. (translated)

Despite their enormous military superiority, the USA and Israel are heading towards defeat against Iran, argues NYT correspondent Korri Erlanger. (translated)

Daniel Ortega was a freedom fighter. Now he is also formally making Nicaragua a dictatorship. (translated)

The first time a US ambassador meets FPÖ leader Kickl? Unclear. But certainly for the first time the US embassy publicly announces a meeting with the top Austrian far-right politician. (translated)

I find that this is a concerning statement from the new ORF chief. Fact-based journalism is crucial. Should right-wing fake news be treated differently because some in the "democratic center" believe in it? (translated)

Every few hours a different command from the supreme commander in a war certainly inspires confidence :) (translated)
