The sentence to remember is that of a UN humanitarian official who spoke to the Security Council on Tuesday. “While much of the international attention East concentrated rightly on the serious events in the Middle East, it is important not to lose sight of other crises, especially one as brutal and far-reaching as that caused by the war in Ukraine”said Ramesh Rajasingham.
Today’s figure: 1 million shells
Today’s figure is 1 million artillery shells allegedly delivered to North Korea by Russia. This is information from South Korean intelligence services. In total, there have been 10 arms deliveries from Pyongyang since August.
