The "killer rabbit" incident involving former President Jimmy Carter occurred in April 1979 while he was fishing in Georgia.

Times Of Israel: Russian-Israeli billionaire among chemical tycoons fueling Ukraine war, exposé finds
Analysis shows that chemical factories linked to wealthy Russians, including Roman Abramovich, are supplying key ingredients for explosives used by Russia in its war against Ukraine. Five companies, heavily sanctioned by the West, provided over 75% of essential chemicals to munitions plants since the war began.
Despite claims of civilian use, experts argue these companies are vital to sustaining Russia's military efforts. The findings suggest that Western sanctions have not effectively curtailed Russian military production, raising questions about the need for a reassessment of current sanction strategies.
