ICE-Gestapo shot a man in NYC with his 5 year old son in the back seat, then they rammed through protesters who were trying to block their vehicle from leaving the scene. I’ll say it again and again, ICE aren’t agents or law enforcement, they are terrorists, murderers and white supremacists.

Russia launched a cynical attack against Ukraine on October 7, firing around 70 missiles - many of them ballistic - along with Shahed drones. The attacks hit Kyiv and 12 regions, killing at least 19 people and injuring dozens.
In Pryluky, Chernihiv region, a Russian strike destroyed a five-storey residential building, killing 13 people, including three children. At least 43 people were injured, including children.
Nine apartment buildings were damaged in Dnipro and Kremenchuk. Two people were killed and 27 more injured. Two more people were killed in Kyiv and two in Oleksandriia.
Russian ballistic missiles remain one of the biggest threats. Ukraine urgently needs more air defence, including Patriot missiles, to protect lives.
