Russia comes under attack as Ukraine targets Russian positions in Crimea

In recent developments, pro-Palestinian activists are making a fresh attempt to break the Gaza sea blockade, using a large fleet of small boats. This is not the first such attempt, as previous endeavours have been unsuccessful.

The organization behind this movement is the Free Gaza Movement, an international pro-Palestinian group registered in Nicosia. Since 2007, they have organised several missions to breach the Israeli blockade. However, the specific details of their current plan are not yet known.

Meanwhile, in a separate incident, Hamas' longtime spokesman, Abu Obeida, is reported to have been "neutralized." The exact circumstances or timing of this event are not specified in the report. It is also unclear whether this "neutralization" is related to the ongoing conflict in the region.

Abu Obeida, considered one of the most well-known representatives of Hamas, is known for always appearing veiled in public appearances and video messages. The report does not provide any details about his condition or whereabouts after the "neutralization."

In a statement, the defense minister commented on the "neutralization" of the Hamas spokesperson, but the identity of the minister is not mentioned in the report. The report also does not specify whether the "neutralization" was a result of military action or another means.

Elsewhere, the Ukrainian government is awaiting a direct meeting between the presidents of Ukraine and Russia. As of the report, no such meeting has taken place, and the Kremlin is currently engaged in excuses and evasions regarding the matter.
