Video footage has emerged from the city of Mariupol in Ukraine showing the bodies of more than 20 civilians lying along a main road.
The graphic videos, posted on social media in recent days, come as the United Nations has confirmed that it is investigating hundreds of allegations of killing of civilians during the invasion of Ukraine.
The southern port city of Mariupol has been the scene of weeks of intense fighting between Russian and Ukrainian forces.
Canada’s COVID-19 immunity landscape has completely transformed since the emergence of Omicron — with new estimates suggesting that almost half of the population has been infected.
Researchers in B.C. analyzed thousands of blood samples in the Lower Mainland throughout the pandemic to track antibody levels in the general population, and found a massive shift in the level of infection in the past few months.
The B.C. data, provided in advance to CBC News, found close to 40 per cent of the population had antibodies from a previous infection in March, up from around 10 per cent in October. That number is even higher in children under 10, with nearly two-thirds now showing evidence of prior infection.
Majority of Canadians back inquiries into national, provincial pandemic responses: poll
A majority of Canadians favour a thorough review into how all levels of government handled the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a new poll.
The survey from B.C.-based pollster Research Co. found 66 per cent of respondents backed a public inquiry into how the federal government managed the pandemic, with 23 per cent opposed.
Italy will become the first European nation to implement a social credit system – where citizens will be rewarded for their “good behavior”.
Isn’t it interesting how the elites attempt to divert attention to race whenever the public starts to get angry about the failed economic policies of the establishment?
KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russian forces attacked a steel plant in the shattered Ukrainian port city of Mariupol on Saturday, Ukrainian officials said, apparently seeking to eliminate the last pocket of Ukrainian resistance in the strategic city the Kremlin claims its military has otherwise seized.
The assault was reported by an advisor to Ukraine’s presidential office as an estimated 1,000 civilians sheltered in the Azovstal plant alongside the remaining Ukrainian fighters, while Russian forces pressed their offensive elsewhere in the eastern Donbas region amid fierce Ukrainian counterattacks.

The news of Ontario Liberal Party leader Steven Del Duca declaring that he wants to ban the legal purchasing of handguns if he becomes premier caught the attention of conservative media in Canada, which rightfully ripped Del Duca for his anti-firearms positions.
A crazed gunman allegedly shot three adults and a girl in a leafy section of Washington, DC, on Friday afternoon before taking his own life hours later as police closed in on the apartment where he was suspected of carrying out the attack, authorities said.
The suspect allegedly erected a “sniper-type setup” inside his fifth floor apartment and fired indiscriminately at passers-by at about 3:20 p.m. on Van Ness Street near Connecticut Avenue in the Northwest section of the city, police said.
The latest findings from Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation into the Russian collusion narrative reveal the CIA knew Hillary Clinton’s lawyer was giving them fake information all the way back in 2017.
If the Liberals truly believed they were governing effectively, why would they seek to expand state power over the internet and attempt to narrow the bounds of debate?
Conservative Party leadership candidate and Independent Ontario MPP Roman Baber has slammed Prime Minister Justin Trudeau for demonizing Freedom Convoy protesters on Parliament Hill last February.
Baber made the comments during an appearance on CBC News’s Power & Politics earlier this week. In the segment, Baber also said that Trudeau’s invocation of the Emergencies Act was groundless.
Colonel Douglas Macgregor appeared on Tucker Carlson to give a brutally honest assessment of the conflict in Ukraine. Regarding the transfer of heavy weapons and artillery, Macgregor notes something many have discussed.
The logistics of sending in those weapons from western Ukraine (Poland border) to the eastern Ukraine battle encompasses a thousand-mile trek. Russia can easily hit those convoys en route, negating the supply line. Additionally, the U.S. has sent $4.7 billion in military equipment and financial aid so far, and we have no idea who is in control of those weapons.
India slams Rep. Ilhan Omar over ‘condemnable’ visit to Pakistan
India’s Ministry of External Affairs blasted far-left Rep. Ilhan Omar’s visit to Pakistan this week, calling her trip to the disputed region of Kashmir “condemnable.”
“We have noted that she has visited a part of Indian Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir that is currently illegally occupied by Pakistan,” ministry spokesman Arindam Bagchi said of the Minnesota Democrat during a Wednesday press conference. “Let me just say that if such a politician wishes to practice her narrow-minded politics at home … that may be her business.”
Barack and Michelle Obama Are Abandoning Spotify
After signing an exclusive podcast deal with Spotify in 2019, the Obamas will reportedly be leaving the platform after their deal ends in October.
The Fate of Julian Assange Is Now in the Hands of Britain’s Interior Minister
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is one step closer to extradition as a UK judge ruled that the fate of Assange — who published thousands of classified U.S. documents from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars — will rest in the hands of the British Interior Minister Priti Patel.
Chris Wallace’s Future Uncertain After Leaving FOX to Join Now Tanked CNN+

Germany plans workaround for arms deliveries to Ukraine
Berlin is working on a three-way swap via Slovenia that would see heavy equipment sent to Ukraine. However, criticism of the government’s lack of clarity continues — including from within its own ranks.
US bride and caterer arrested for allegedly drugging guests with cannabis
Police in Florida have arrested a bride and her caterer after finding they allegedly added cannabis to food that was later served to wedding guests.
The arrests came some two months after officials were called to the wedding to assist guests who said they felt as though they had been drugged.
Since the disastrous U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan last August and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, it has felt like the world is on fire. But in the midst of these attention-grabbing crises, there is an even more pernicious threat facing the United States and the signs are all around us. Behind most major foreign policy issues lies China.
Take the Iran nuclear deal. Media reports indicate that Iran’s fleet of tankers has ferried at least $22 billion worth of illicit oil to the People’s Republic of China since 2021. This has provided the Iranian regime with a major source of revenue and raised questions about the Biden administration’s lax enforcement of sanctions.
It is as good an example of China’s duplicity as can be found today. But it is not an isolated incident.
