Quick Glance: San Francisco's Real Estate Market in Turmoil

The city of San Francisco, once seen as the shining star of the West Coast, is now on the verge of collapse, with seemingly no one raising the alarm.

In particular, the city's housing market has been severely impacted over the past year, with prices plummeting and homeowners fleeing en masse.

Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, did not hold back in his comparison of San Francisco's issues to those of New York City, stating that the Bay Area is 'in far worse shape.'

San Francisco is failing in all aspects, leading to a quiet collapse of its housing market, where once luxurious properties are now being offered at significant discounts.

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.

At least 18 people were killed and over 60 wounded in Chernihiv due to Russian missile strikes. Ukrainian officials emphasized that the attack could have been prevented with adequate air defense systems.

Russia launched three Iskander cruise missiles at the city, located near the Russian border and previously encircled by Russian troops.

Ukraine currently has three Patriot air defense systems but requires 26 for full coverage. Following appeals for more systems, Germany pledged to send an additional one.

A $60 billion aid package for Ukraine is stalled in the US Congress, allowing Russia to exploit ammunition and air defense shortages and gain ground in the east.

A television tower in Kharkiv was ripped in two by a Russian missile strike on Monday, described by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a deliberate attempt by Moscow to make the second largest city in Ukraine uninhabitable.

Impressive footage showed the main mast of the tower breaking off and collapsing in the city, which has been under missile and drone attacks for weeks.

Zelenskyy briefed US President Joe Biden about the airstrike that occurred shortly before their conversation.
