While Moscow has accused Ukraine of being responsible for the incident, Kyiv has not officially claimed responsibility.

Russian authorities have alleged that Ukraine deployed "unmanned surface vessels" (USVs), or water-based drones, to attack the Kerch bridge. However, visual evidence to substantiate these claims has not been presented by the BBC or other sources. A source within Ukraine's security service has informed BBC Russian that ...

In an effort to address the issue of migrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, Texas Governor Greg Abbott has taken measures to install a floating barrier in the Rio Grande. However, critics argue that this move is a "dangerous stunt" that puts migrants at risk. A group of Texas congressional Democrats, led by U.S. Rep.

They claimed that the barrier, situated in Eagle Pass, Texas, could potentially violate international law. The lawmakers highlighted Governor Abbott's decision as a disregard for collaboration with federal agencies such as the International Boundary and Water Commission, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and the Department of Homeland Security. They accused Abbott of misusing state resources and interfering with federal immigration and security responsibilities. According to the letter, the first segment of the barrier, wh...
