Ukraine's surprise incursion into Russia's Kursk region is faltering as Russian troops have pushed Kyiv's offensive backwards.

Trump has promised to deport a vast number of immigrants in the U.S. illegally, saying he would use military troops as well as state and local law enforcement.

The losses are compounded by the “meat grinder” approach said to be favoured by Russian commanders - describing the waves of recruits thrown towards Ukrainian positions in a bid to exhaust troops.

Some of that territory has been regained by Russia but Ukraine still has troops in the Kursk region.

Israeli troops have continued clearing northern Gaza of inhabitants, calling for mass evacuations that many rights groups contend are a prelude to Israel’s occupation of parts of the enclave.
