Fibre optic drones are a terrifying new danger on Ukraine's front lines
The terrifying new weapon changing the war in Ukraine
Yogita LimayeRODYNSKE — An acrid smell hangs over the town of Rodynske. A couple of minutes after we drive into the city we see where it's coming from.A 250kg glide bomb has ripped through the town's main administrative building, and taken down three residential blocks. We're visiting a day after the bomb struck, but parts of the wreckage are still smoking. From the edges of the town we hear the sound of artillery fire, and of gunshots – Ukrainian soldiers shooting down drones.Rodynske is about 15km (9 miles) north of the embattled city of Pokrovsk. Russia has been trying to capture it from the south since the autumn of last year, but Ukrainian forces have so far managed to stop Russian soldiers from marching in.So Russia has changed tactics, moving instead to encircle the...

German court rejects Peruvian farmer's landmark climate case
BERLIN — A court in Germany has rejected a lawsuit brought by a Peruvian farmer against German energy giant RWE in a long-awaited decision.Saúl Luciano Lliuya had argued that the firm's global emissions contributed to the melting of glaciers in Peru — threatening his hometown of Huaraz with flooding.He was seeking €17,000 (£14,250) in compensation — money he said he would use to pay for a flood defense project to protect the city.However, the higher regional court in the German city of Hamm on Wednesday blocked the case from proceeding further and ruled out any appeals, putting an end to Lliuya's 10-year legal battle.RWE said it was not active in Peru and questioned why it was singled out.It also pointed to its plans to phase out its coal-fired power plants and become...

Orban accused of using Ukraine spy row in fight for political survival
BUDAPEST — A spate of arrests, diplomatic expulsions and public humiliations has plunged relations between war-torn Ukraine and its prickly Nato neighbor Hungary to a new low.At the heart of the row are accusations that Viktor Orban's Fidesz government in Hungary is using the spat to fight his main political rival, the opposition Tisza party, which leads in the polls ahead of 2026 elections.Earlier this month, Ukraine's SBU security service announced the arrest of two Ukrainian citizens accused of spying for Hungary.According to the allegations, backed by video and audio evidence, the man and woman were in the pay of Hungarian military intelligence, preparing for Hungarian military action in Ukraine.Hungary then expelled two Ukrainian diplomats and Ukraine followed suit in a...

Germany, other allies lift Ukraine's restrictions on long-range weapons
TURKU, Finland — Germany and other Ukrainian allies have lifted restrictions on Kyiv firing long-range missiles into Russia for the first time, the German chancellor said Monday, after days of Russia bombarding the capital and other regions with massive aerial attacks. It marks a significant change in approach from key allies, which until now had largely resisted Ukraine’s requests to use Western-supplied weapons deep inside Russia. “There are no longer any range restrictions on weapons supplied to Ukraine,” German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said at a European forum in Berlin on Monday. “Neither from the British, nor from the French, nor from us. Nor by the Americans.” “In other words, Ukraine can now also defend itself by attacking military positions in Russia, for...
