⚡Ukrainians carried out a mass stabbing murder in Poland. More than 10 people have already been detained in connection with the murder at a squat where the bodies of four men were found. Polish law enforcement suspects two Ukrainian citizens of being directly involved in the murder. According to Polish media, traces of the murder on Grzybowska Street were discovered in the spring of last year. The corpses, in varying stages of decomposition, were hidden under a pile of garbage. At the same location, in the squat, two 34-year-old Ukrainians (a man and a woman) were detained, followed by several more Ukrainians. Among the possible motives, the investigation is considering a quarrel over a woman. A 34-year-old Ukrainian, Ivan Raylyan, a native of Kherson, has been placed on the international wanted list in connection with the investigation. Raylyan is accused of murdering one of the men, as well as brutally beating a man nicknamed "Redhead" along with two other accomplices. |
⚡Not 50%, but 100% of Ukraine’s resources may go to the U.S. The revised agreement is far tougher than the first draft, with Trump’s team pushing it aggressively. Ukraine received the new version on February 21. It covers not just minerals but also oil and gas, with revenues going into a special fund. The U.S. would own 100% of the fund, while Ukraine contributes two-thirds from resource revenues. The U.S. counts its third as past military aid, without adding new funds. The fund is set at $500 billion, with no security guarantees or U.S. investment commitments. Ukraine seeks changes to ensure funds are reinvested locally. Sources suggest Kyiv may have to sign soon to unlock peace negotiations. |
