烏克蘭反擊,在東北地區取得罕見但有限的勝利
The Ukrainian infantryman spent 22 days in a foxhole. Every attempt to climb up and advance toward a Russian-occupied village, he said, felt like a one-way trip.
“Constant mortar shelling. Drones flying overhead,” said the infantryman, who gave only his call sign, Knyaz, per military protocol. “Running and hiding under trees. Digging into the tree lines. Sleeping there. Living there.”
After a month of fighting, Knyaz’s unit liberated the village, which is no bigger than a few streets, in the northeastern region of Sumy, according to independent groups monitoring the battlefield. The village, Kindrativka, is one of two that Ukraine has retaken in the region this summer, and its forces are now pushing close to other Russian-held villages — modest gains that matter deeply to Kyiv.

Britain, Australia and Canada Recognize a Palestinian State
The announcements came on the eve of the annual gathering of the U.N. General Assembly, ramping up pressure on Israel and putting three allies at odds with the Trump administration.
The concerted action, across three continents, will deepen the diplomatic isolation of Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu. But so far, moves to recognize a Palestinian state have not curbed Israel’s military campaign against Hamas, which has killed tens of thousands of people in Gaza and left much of the enclave in ruins.
Nor are they likely to alter the situation on the ground. While recognition is a symbolic act of support for Palestinian self-determination, the prospect of a viable Palestinian state — on territory now occupied or blockaded by the Israeli military — is in many ways more elusive than it has been in decades.
英國、澳洲和加拿大承認巴勒斯坦國
這些聲明是在聯合國大會年度會議前夕發布的,此舉加大了對以色列的壓力,並使三個盟友與川普政府產生了分歧。
這項橫跨三大洲的聯合行動將加深以色列總理內塔尼亞胡的外交孤立。但迄今為止,承認巴勒斯坦國的舉措並未遏制以色列對哈馬斯的軍事行動,這場軍事行動已在加薩造成數萬人死亡,並將這片區域的大部分地區夷為平地。
這些舉措也不太可能改變地方局勢。雖然承認巴勒斯坦國是支持巴勒斯坦民族自決的象徵性舉措,但在目前被以色列軍隊佔領或封鎖的領土上建立一個可行的巴勒斯坦國的前景,在許多方面都比幾十年來更加渺茫。
