Former Bolivian President Evo Morales survived an assassination attempt when his vehicle was fired upon en route to an interview. Morales’s driver was injured in the attack, which left 14 bullet holes in the vehicle. Morales blamed the incident on Bolivian security forces, describing it as a “joint operation” by police and military elites and accusing the government of targeting him. He urged President Luis Arce to remove key officials if they were responsible. President Arce condemned the attack and announced an investigation. Morales served as Bolivia’s president from 2006 to 2019, resigning amid protests over election fraud allegations.

“Putin is afraid to openly tell President Trump that he wants to continue this war and kill Ukrainians. That’s why those in Moscow come up with conditions that will lead to a deadlock and make the war last as long as possible. Putin often does this. He doesn’t say ‘no’ directly, but he prolongs the process and makes normal solutions impossible. We believe that all of this is new manipulation by Russia,” said the Ukrainian leader, also noting that Putin must be put under pressure with sanctions to end the war.
