37 people have been killed after a huge explosion at an arms depot in Ukraine which was struck by a Russian drone. The ams storage facility was based near a residential areas on the outskirts of the capital, Kyiv. Hundreds of people have been evacuated from the area and a rescue operation is continuing, with fears that the death toll will rise.
Shells, mines and drones stored at the facility exploded in a massive blast that destroyed nearby homes nearby, including a care home for the elderly and disabled.
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky strongly criticised the location of the depot near people’s homes, saying an investigation had been launched into “terrible negligence on the part of those who stored explosive right next to people”.
Russia’s Ministry of Defence said that its forces had targeted “an ammunition depot”.

Hawk Fire wildfire in Nevada expected to rage for another two days, say officials | BBC News
US fire crews have reported progress in their efforts to tackle a large wildfire menacing the city of Reno, Nevada – saying the blaze is about a quarter contained.
The Hawk Fire, which began on Saturday, had spread over 15,000 acres by Monday, firefighters said.
Evacuation orders remain in place for 23,000 people, though other residents have now been allowed to return to their homes. Tens of thousands of other residents have been told to be ready to leave at any moment.
Officials are concerned that gusts of wind could drive the flames towards more homes. Unfavourable weather conditions are forecast for the next two days, meaning the fire could continue to burn during that timeframe.

Today, we discuss China’s £14.7bn investment into AI and robotics in the hopes of overtaking the US as the world leader in innovation.
China has two million robots already working in factories, and is investing heavily in the hopes that one day they could bridge gaps in an already sluggish economy. What can these robots do? And what does the future look like for workers? Our China correspondent Laura Bicker has been to some of these factories, and is on the line to debrief.
Plus, the government has announced more details about their housing plans, including where 70,000 social and affordable homes will be built in England over the next 10 years. 60% of the new homes would be for social rent, despite Andy Burnham telling The Social Housing Podcast in May he “would actually devote all of it to social housing.”.
Is Andy Burnham delivery what he promised? Adam is joined by Alex and housing correspondent Tarah Welsh.

China has vowed to protect its interests after the US announced plans to widen economic sanctions against Iran and its trading partners, which include Beijing.
Foreign ministry spokesman Lin Jian said China was firmly opposed to what it called “illegal unilateral sanctions” and would take “all necessary measures” to safeguard its rights.
US President Donald Trump has said that the US Navy has removed or detonated all mines in the Strait of Hormuz.
Pakistan say talks with Iranian leaders on the path to peace are making progress.

This is encouraging, but it's not the be-all and end-all of poverty. It will raise the standards, yet will set new challenges with it. I think it does express an important lesson though: that as long as we're doing the right thing in the right direction, we will get by over time and reach the next destination – just try not to derail our progress too much along the way.
I think this works for now, but there is a strong part of me that believes that the more human consciousnesses that we tap, the faster will be our ascent. Now the question is: ascent to what? And why?
Those questions have lost their relevance for me ever since taking the BLUE pill. 🤔

And now this war destroyed the whole nice idea of no poverty no hunger 11 Billion humans on earth and the nice idea that the world will globalise more. Although that one was already getting destroyed by Covid and now it will go fully down the drain…

According to his own numbers world poverty has not 'decreased' in absolute numbers. In 1800 total population was about 1 billion of which 850,000,000 were in extreme poverty. In 2015 total population was 7.4 billion of which 12%, or 880,000,000, were in extreme poverty.

Over 1.5 TRILLION is sucked in by the so called Climate industry per year. The majority of the $$$ is embezzled & misappropriated into endless frauds, financial frauds, corruption, back door & under the table payments, lavish travel expenses& Crime facilitation like Human traffic.. Bono's One Foundation only gave 1% funds for charity .. Politicians , Celebrities , globalists , leftists are the worst offenders according to the NGO Watchdogs
