It also accuses some European governments of having 'unrealistic expectations for the war' in Ukraine and subverting democratic processes.

Israeli authorities have identified the body of Sudthisak Rinthalak, a Thai national who was killed during the October 7, 2023, attacks in Israel. Rinthalak's remains were returned to Israel on Wednesday, leaving Israeli police officer Ran Gvili as the last hostage still held in Gaza. Rinthalak was working in Israel to support his family when he was killed, and his body was taken into Gaza by Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ).
