BBC News

Ukraine's president has urged the European Union to back a plan to release billions of euros in frozen Russian cash to help fund the country's defence. As EU leaders met in Brussels, Volodymyr Zelensky said he hoped they would make a positive decision about using €140bn (£122bn) in Russian assets currently held in a Belgian clearing house. The controversial move would would be on top of sanctions the block has imposed on Russia - the latest on Thursday targeting the Kremlin's oil revenues. They followed US measures against Russia's oil industry earlier - the first time President Donald Trump has sanctioned Moscow as he grows frustrated over President Vladimir Putin's refusal to end the war. On Wednesday evening, the US president confirmed that a planned meeting with Putin in Budapest had been shelved indefinitely.


GREG GUTFELD: 'Cheap fakes' is just another hoax by the media

FOX News

'Gutfeld!' panelists react to the media claiming President Biden videos are deepfakes. Welcome to the hoax hoax. Where in the run-up to the election our media circles the wagons around a dithering Joe Biden to convince us that what we see with our own eyes isn't real. This year's hoax hoax even comes with a whole new buzz term – "cheap fake." A word that allows the left to confuse people with deep fake without actually lying.


Using frozen Russian assets to help Ukraine to top G7 agenda

The Japan Times

Boosting support for Kyiv, redirecting key supply chains away from China and setting guardrails for artificial intelligence applications will be just some of the topics discussed by the Group of Seven nations when their leaders meet Thursday to Saturday for a key summit in Italy. Under the chairmanship of Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, G7 leaders will have their hands full at the three-day gathering in the resort village of Borgo Egnazia, with the Israel-Gaza conflict, the intensifying U.S.-China rivalry and growing tensions in the Indo-Pacific also expected to be high on the agenda. Just like last year's summit in Hiroshima, the leaders will be joined by their counterparts from emerging and developing countries, as the G7 looks to step up cooperation to forge a united front on critical matters.

Russia blasts US on frozen assets, missiles as Ukraine bombardment persists

Al Jazeera

Russia has warned that it will react robustly to Western moves to seize its assets or deploy missiles. Moscow could sever diplomatic relations with the United States should it confiscate Russian assets frozen under sanctions, Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov said on Friday. Officials also said the Kremlin would respond to the deployment of missiles in Europe or Asia, even as Ukraine reported that Russia had unleashed another barrage of attack drones overnight. Ryabkov threatened that Moscow could cut diplomatic ties with Washington should it hand frozen Russian assets to Kyiv, which is desperate for funds, according to the Russian state news agency Interfax. Western countries are discussing the confiscation of more than $1bn in Russian assets frozen due to sanctions over the war in Ukraine.


Ukraine holds the line against Russian attacks, makes small gains

Al Jazeera

Russian and Ukrainian forces remained largely static on the battlefield in the 84th week of the war after a month of vigorous Ukrainian advances that saw Kyiv break through the first of three Russian lines of defence on the southern front. Still, Ukraine proved it could hold onto its gains against Russian counterattacks and even made a few advances. Russian forces appeared to have lost a kilometre-long (0.6-mile-long) trench west of Verbove, a village on the front line of the main Ukrainian thrust through Russian defences in the Zaporizhia region in southeastern Ukraine. Vladimir Rogov, an occupation official, said at least four companies of Ukrainian troops had launched an attack on the trench on September 26 supported by armoured fighting vehicles. Geolocated footage that Russian sources released the following day confirmed that Ukraine held the position it had stormed.
