Canada will send tanks to aid Ukraine’s fight against the invasion, following Russia’s wave of missiles at Ukraine

Eleven people died and 11 others were injured after 35 buildings were struck across several regions of the nation.

The worst damage to residential buildings was in the Kyiv region, but officials also reported strikes on two energy facilities in the Odesa region.

The explosion in Kyiv happened during a live broadcast.

Russia is responding to Ukraine’s new offer of military support from the U.K., U.S. and now Canada.

Saying the U.K.’s pledge to send Challenger 2 battle tanks, this shows “direct” Western involvement in the conflict.

The offensive was a continuation of Russia’s months-long tactic of targeting Ukraine’s infrastructure.

The freezing winter has seen power stations destroyed and millions plunged into darkness.

Ukraine is counting on a German delivery of the most effective battle tanks available.

Canada has jumped on board and will soon transfer four Leopard 2 tanks and send Canadian troops to Europe to help train the Ukrainian military.

“These heavily-armoured vehicles provide soldiers with a tactical advantage on the battlefield,” Canadian Minister of National Defence Anita Anand said.

Israel and Hamas agree to release hostages in U.S.-brokered deal, marking a potential turning point in Gaza conflict.

In a major diplomatic breakthrough, Israel and Hamas have agreed to release all remaining Israeli hostages under a U.S.-brokered framework. The deal pairs prisoner exchanges with an Israeli troop pullback and expanded aid access, marking a potential turning point in the two-year Gaza conflict.

The agreement, set for approval by Israel’s cabinet, could pave the way for lasting peace if both sides uphold the terms. It follows weeks of negotiations led by U.S. envoys and regional mediators in Egypt, Qatar, and Türkiye.

As international agencies prepare to facilitate aid and logistics, the world watches to see whether this fragile deal can hold and bring relief to millions affected by the war.
