The Western Journal: How Biden's VA Cares for Vets: Orgies, Assault, One Man Slept with 32 Co-Workers
A congressional investigation has uncovered serious misconduct at the Mountain Home VA medical center in Tennessee, including allegations of sexual assault, harassment, and a culture of debauchery among employees. Reports indicate that one employee had sexual relations with 32 co-workers, while at least 12 officials participated in an orgy.
These revelations raise concerns about the impact on veterans' care and reflect poorly on the Biden administration's priorities. Critics argue that the administration has shown a lack of commitment to veterans, especially in light of its handling of the Afghanistan withdrawal.
Times Of Israel: World Central Kitchen fires 62 Gazan workers accused by Israel of terror ties
World Central Kitchen has fired 62 Palestinian employees in Gaza following Israeli claims of their links to terror groups, particularly in light of an employee's alleged involvement in the October 7 Hamas-led massacre. The charity stated it made these changes to protect its operations, but emphasized it does not accept Israel's conclusions without shared intelligence.
The Israeli security review indicated that the terminated employees had "affiliations and direct connections" with terror organizations. This situation mirrors accusations against UNRWA staff, where Israel claims a significant percentage have ties to terror groups, a claim UNRWA disputes.

Le Monde: In Syria, the beginnings of an evacuation of Russian bases
Russia appears to be evacuating its military presence in Syria following the fall of Bashar al-Assad's regime. Increased cargo flights and troop movements indicate a withdrawal, while Russian naval vessels have left Tartous for exercises. Reports suggest Moscow is seeking Turkish assistance for troop evacuation.
Tensions are rising at Russian bases due to threats from the Islamist group HTS. Despite a history of aggressive military action, Russia is now adopting a conciliatory approach, having reached an agreement with HTS for the security of its installations. The shift in power dynamics is reflected in changing narratives within Russian state media.
