Reuters journalist Raneen Sawafta and security advisor Grant Bowden were injured in an Israeli settler attack while covering an olive harvest in the Israeli-occupied West Bank over the weekend. Such incidents are rarely investigated by Israeli authorities & perpetrators rarely…

#OpEd "The flame of independent journalism Derk lit 30 years ago has not been extinguished. And we will bring it back to Russia," writes Moscow Times publisher Alexander Gubsky. themoscowtimes.com/2025/08/01/inf…
This is a breathtaking, devastating loss. Derk was a pioneer of independent media in Russia and was its mainstay and supporter even after the Russian invasion of Ukraine and institution of military censorship in Russia.
Our father, Derk Sauer, has passed away. It’s an immeasurable loss, and no words can truly capture what a remarkable father and husband he was. He dedicated his life to defending independent Russian media. In his final days, he asked that people continue to support the free press

A quick update: delighted to be moving to Kazakhstan in October as @Reuters Central Asia correspondent. Sad to be leaving wonderful Georgia, but excited to get to grips with a new adventure. If you're involved with the region at all, I'd love to chat!

I feel like most of the debates about the resolution of the war in Ukraine miss the point. It's not about the occupied territories, NATO or security guarantees. It's about the future of the Ukrainian army. A 🧵. 1/
As the incoming Trump administration considers options on Ukraine, the big question will be this: can Putin be enticed or coerced into a peace deal, and at what price. Let's consider some of the ingredients. (A thread of five points).
Very useful on Georgian elections:
In rural areas the ruling party has many data points deviating significantly from the trend line. In hundreds of small and large locations, 100 voters show up, and all 100 vote for the ruling party—a scenario that is almost unreal in fair elections
The initial results by 10:00 suggests that we have the highest turnout since 2012. Reminder: 2012 was the last time the ruling party was voted out. 🇬🇪🗳️
