Afghanistan’s Taliban Government has called for calm in Ukraine as Russia continues their aggression in the nation, after Putin declared war last week

Afghanistan’s Taliban has called on Russia and Ukraine to ‘resolve the crisis through peaceful means’ amid escalating aggression in the region.

The Taliban’s message comes months after massacring innocent people as the group, which had been for years fought by the American military, took over Afghanistan following the US withdrawal from the region.

In a statement posted to the Taliban’s official Twitter account, which now goes by the name of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, the militant group said it was concerned ‘about real possibility of civilian casualties.’

The Taliban called for dialogue to be held between Russia and Ukraine

Under the seal of the Emirate’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs – that closely resembles the seals used by US government departments – the Taliban called for dialogue to be held between Russia and Ukraine and to safeguard Afghans in Ukraine.

The Taliban, as the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, has yet to be recognised by any country as Afghanistan’s new government since its brutal takeover in August.

ABC Facebook page hacked, porn star images briefly posted before being removed and security measures launched

In Short:
– ABC News Facebook page was briefly hacked, displaying an explicit photo of Bonnie Blue for 20 minutes.
– An investigation was launched after unauthorised access to a staff account led to the incident.

The ABC News Facebook page experienced a brief hack on Tuesday, featuring an explicit cover photo of adult model and OnlyFans star Bonnie Blue. The photo, showing Blue kneeling with her name written across her forehead, was displayed for approximately 20 minutes before being removed.

An ABC spokesperson confirmed the incident was due to unauthorised access to a staff account. Following the incident, the Facebook page was left without a cover photo. Other content posted included a glossy headshot of fellow adult entertainer Lily Phillips and a humorous image of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.

The ABC promptly secured their Facebook page following the unauthorised access. An investigation into the breach has been launched to improve security measures.

Security Response

Many reactions followed the posts during their brief availability. Comments included jokes about new hosts for the cancelled series Q&A. Blue gained notoriety in 2025 for claiming to set a world record by engaging with 1,057 men in a single day.

Her plans for a controversial Schoolies event in 2024 led to her being banned from Australia after a public petition garnered significant support.

The cover photo used was sourced from the artwork for ‘Bonnie Blu,’ a single by American rapper Lil Mabu.
