US announces Patriot missiles for Ukraine as part of aid package: Zelenskyy said at least seven Patriot systems are needed to protect Ukrainian cities.

Quick Glance: US Sending New Patriot Missiles to Ukraine

As part of a massive $6 billion additional aid package, the U.S. will provide Ukraine with additional Patriot missiles for its air defense systems, announced Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Friday.

Discussing the need for Patriots, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy participated in the Ukraine Defense Contact Group meeting on Friday morning, where about 50 countries virtually gathered in a Pentagon-led session.

Included in the new funding, the largest tranche of USAI aid sent so far, are the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) as well as Switchblade and Puma drones, counter-drone systems, and artillery.

Months of deadlock among bitterly divided members of Congress over the funding led to House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., having to form a bipartisan coalition to pass the bill.

Quick Glance: Harvey Weinstein’s 2020 Rape Conviction Overturned

New York's highest court overturned Harvey Weinstein's 2020 rape conviction, disappointing those who celebrated historic gains during the #MeToo era.

The ruling was based on legal technicalities and did not exonerate Weinstein's behavior, according to #MeToo advocates.

Weinstein, convicted in Los Angeles for another rape, will face retrial in New York, despite remaining in prison.

The court criticized the admission of uncharged sexual acts as evidence, deeming it an abuse of judicial discretion.

Concerns arise over potential bribery involving Krah and Bystron, despite no legal guilt being proven.

Internal distancing within the AfD and criticism of a lack of transparency regarding the candidates ensue.

The discussion concludes with the possibility of the AfD's list changes for the European elections being invalidated.

Quick Glance: Romanian Orthodox Church Embraces Moldovan Priests

A growing conflict within Moldova's Orthodox community between the churches affiliated with the Russian Orthodox Patriarchate and the Romanian Church reflects the divided opinion among parishioners.

Over 60 priests have switched from the Moscow-linked church to the Romanian Church since last year, aligning with Moldova's pro-European authorities' goal to join the European Union by 2030.

The pressure to choose between the two rival churches highlights Moldova's tumultuous history, having been part of the Russian Empire, Soviet Union, and 'Greater Romania' in the past.

While the Romanian Church continues to welcome Moldovan priests and establish new churches, the Moldova Metropolis has defrocked priests joining the rival church and urges them to return.

Russian media: Russian deputy defense minister detained for bribery stripped of his position, assets

kyivindependent.com/russian-media-russian-deputy-defense-minister-ivanov-accused-of-bribery-stripped-of-his-position-assets/

Quick Glance: Detention of Russia's Deputy Defense Minister on Suspicion of High Treason

Timur Ivanov, Russia's deputy defense minister, is suspected of high treason and bribery, facing a possible 15-year sentence.

Ivanov's arrest sparked speculation about a potential purge within Moscow's elite circle, especially given his close relationships with Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov.

Independent Russian media outlets report corruption allegations against Ivanov and his family, stemming from kickbacks on ministry-related contracts.

Ivanov is also alleged to have profited from construction projects in the Ukrainian city of Mariupol, which fell under Moscow's control after a prolonged siege. His arrest came shortly after a meeting with Shoigu and other defense ministry officials.
