Kenyan police break up ring trafficking people to Russia to fight in Ukraine

Kenyan police have broken up a human trafficking ring that lured Kenyans with job offers in Russia but intended to send them to fight in Ukraine. The ring was discovered after a raid on a residential apartment on the outskirts of Nairobi, where 22 Kenyans were found awaiting processing to Russia. One suspect was arrested and is being detained for 10 days while police complete their investigations. The victims had signed contracts with an unnamed overseas employment agency, committing to pay up to $18,000 for visas, travel, accommodation, and other logistics. The Kenyan government is following up on reports of several Kenyan nationals who have been trafficked to Russia and are being held as prisoners of war in Ukraine.

Russia launches major drone and missile attack on Ukraine, killing at least 4

Russia launched a massive drone and missile attack on Ukraine, killing at least 4 people, including a 12-year-old girl, and wounding at least 10 others. The attack came after Russia warned NATO against taking sterner action in response to alleged incursions into airspace covered by the military alliance. Ukrainian officials accused Moscow of waging a 'war against civilians' and vowed to respond. Poland scrambled fighter jets to secure its airspace in response to the Russian strikes. The attack followed the revelation that Ukraine had received a US-made Patriot air defence system from Israel.
