Putin announces partial military mobilization

As the Russia-Ukraine war continues, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced in his address to the nation that “partial mobilization” was declared across the country. “Only citizens who are currently in the reserve and, above all, have served in the army, have certain military specialties and experience, will be subject to the call for partial mobilization,” Putin said in his speech.

“We will support his decision on the future of the majority of residents in the Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics, Zaporizhia and Kherson regions,” Putin said, adding that he signed the decree on partial mobilization and that the implementation will begin from today.

US Flag Raised Again at Embassy in Damascus After 12 Year

0

 

The US flag has been hoisted once more at the US Embassy in Damascus, Syria, for the first time since its closure in 2012.

US Special Representative for Syria Thomas Barrack made his first official visit to Damascus and personally raised the flag during a ceremony attended by Syrian Foreign Minister Assad Hassan Shaybani. The embassy had suspended operations amid the outbreak of civil conflict following anti-government protests.

No official statement has been issued regarding the resumption of embassy operations.

The move follows a surprise meeting earlier this month between US President Donald Trump and Syrian President Ahmed al-Shara in Riyadh, where a decision was made to lift sanctions imposed during the Assad era, signaling a potential shift in Washington-Damascus relations.
