Is conflict in Ukraine shifting in Russia’s favour? In 2024, Russian forces seized nearly six times more territory than in 2023, according to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), as reported by BBC. The advancing Russian troops are concentrating and gaining territory in eastern Ukraine. The conflict after 1000 days and with republican Donald Trump, the new President-elect in the United States who is supposed to take the administration’s reign on January 20, 2025, is reshaping. Meanwhile, in the last two months of President Joe Biden’s rule, the United States approval of allowing Kyiv to use long-range missiles against deep Russian positions is increasing the threat of more sophisticated weaponry going to be tested or used against each other on the battlefield. Long-Range Missiles Enter the Fight Kyiv received a morale boost this week with US President Biden’s approval and the deployment of US-supplied long-range missiles. Now Ukraine, with the help of long-range missiles, are desperately going to strike deep into Russian territory to attempt to disrupt the Russian supply lines. Analysts suggest this move could help Ukraine hold onto contested areas like Kursk, which may serve as bargaining chips in future negotiations. However, introducing these advanced weapons escalates the tension and increases the risks. In the past, Russia has been warning against Western military support, cautioning of consequences if long-range missiles are used that could provoke further retaliation in all those countries helping and supplying weapons to Ukraine. Russia also has warned to use a strong response and even demonstrated it. On Thursday, Russians responded with a long-range ballistic missile attack on the Ukrainian city of Dnipro and warned of more retaliatory actions. Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that his country has a stockpile of advanced Oreshnik hypersonic missiles “ready to be used,”. In an unscheduled television address, Putin claimed the missiles, capable of travelling at ten times the speed of sound, are virtually impossible to intercept and promised further testing in “combat conditions.” The strike on Dnipro, described by media quoting witnesses as highly unusual and involving powerful ballistic weaponry, marked a new escalation in the conflict. Ukrainian officials called the missile’s impact to that of an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM). Meanwhile, Ukraine for the first time earlier used long-range missile strikes on Russian territory with U.S.-supplied ATACMS and British-supplied Storm Shadow systems. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is further urging Western allies to deliver advanced air defence systems, including the U.S. THAAD and upgrades to Patriot systems, to counter these threats. Both developments reshape the conflict’s undercurrents and warn about its future. Russia’s campaign has so far focused heavily on key logistical hubs in the Donbas region. The ISW estimates that Moscow’s forces have captured around 2,700 square kilometres this year, compared to just 465 square kilometres in 2023. Recent gains include areas near Kupiansk in Kharkiv and Kurakhove in Donetsk, both critical for Ukraine’s supply lines. Kupiansk, once liberated by Ukraine in its 2022 counteroffensive, is now under severe pressure. Russian troops are reported to be just a couple of kilometres from a key bridge into the city. In Kurakhove, Russia is attempting to encircle Ukrainian defenders, inching closer to the strategic hub of Pokrovsk. Some of the media has reported that they have already captured the area and one can see Russian flags hurling on several buildings and bridges. Experts warn that Ukraine’s eastern defences may struggle to hold. Dr Marina Miron of King’s College London told the BBC that the eastern front could face collapse if Russian advances continue unchecked. Russia’s advances have come at a steep cost. According to BBC analysis, over 78,000 Russian soldiers have died since the full-scale invasion began in February 2022. Losses have been especially severe in recent months, reflecting what some analysts call a “meat grinder” strategy—waves of recruits deployed to exhaust Ukrainian defences. Ukrainian losses are also substantial, though official numbers vary widely. The Russian Ministry of Defence has given figures of over 33,990 Ukrainian soldiers who have died in the Kursk region alone. The number of casualties and destruction highlights the brutal nature of the conflict. The U.S. decision to supply Ukraine with antipersonnel landmines has further drawn criticism for risking civilian casualties and marks another shift in American policy on the controversial weapon. Officials argue the mines are essential to slowing Russian advances, but anti-landmine campaigners say that 164 countries have already banned the use of landmines and it should not be encouraged in any circumstances. In addition, Ukraine’s surprise incursion into Russia’s Kursk region in August marked a bold strategy. At that time, Kyiv briefly gained control of several border areas, aiming to draw Russian forces away from the eastern front. However, the operation has stalled. Russia has since deployed 50,000 troops to the region, regaining much of the lost territory. Dr. Miron has called the operation a “tactical success but a strategic failure,” noting that it diverted some of Ukraine’s best units from the more critical eastern front. Instead of slowing Russia’s advance in the Donbas, the operation has tied down resources at a crucial time. The support Russians are getting from North Korea is also helping Russian troops in advancing. North Korea has sent thousands of soldiers to support Russia, and Ukrainian forces say they have faced these troops in battles in Russia’s Kursk region, where Ukraine controls some areas. U.S. President Joe Biden confirmed he approved Ukraine’s use of longer-range ATACMS missiles to strike targets inside Russia in response to Russia using North Korean troops in the war. The Bigger Picture Russia’s recent gains have strengthened its negotiating position. The ISW estimates that Moscow now controls over 110,000 square kilometres of Ukrainian territory. By contrast, Ukraine’s territorial gains in its Kursk incursion are shrinking, with Russia retaking nearly half of what Kyiv initially seized. The conflict’s human toll also continues to grow. The Russian government has allocated $58.7 million to support residents in the Kursk and Belgorod regions affected by Ukrainian shelling. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov at G 20 meeting in Brazil while speaking to the media last week accused France of direct participation in the war, citing its training of Ukrainian troops and supply of advanced missiles. Russia has revised its nuclear doctrine , expanding the conditions under which it might deploy its arsenal. The approval of the Russian Doctrine shift coincides with Washington’s decision to allow Ukraine to fire long-range US missiles into Russian areas. The updated policy now considers an attack by a non-nuclear state, if supported by a nuclear-armed ally, as grounds for a nuclear response. Additionally, large-scale conventional attacks on Russia, Belarus, or threats to critical sovereignty could meet the threshold. As per the state-run TASS news agency, the changes and shift in strategy broaden the scope of potential nuclear targets and escalate the stakes of any coalition-led aggression. Political observers see Russia’s assertive nuclear posture as an action in response to Western provocations. Chances are that Russia, as a deterrence act, may wheel in tactical nuclear weapons closer to NATO’s borders. This could be further dangerous that might further escalate the conflict. This doctrine shift introduces a new phase. Dmitry Peskov, Kremlin spokesperson in a veiled warning urged the nations to analyse it carefully. Meanwhile, Moscow has warned that US involvement via advanced weaponry could be interpreted as direct participation in hostilities. What Comes Next? The war’s trajectory remains uncertain. While Russia has momentum, its progress is slow and costly. Ukraine, for its part, continues to resist, employing strategic withdrawals to preserve its forces for a prolonged fight. The hope from the elected United States President, Donald Trump adds further unpredictability. The US president-elect has promised to end the war within 24 hours of taking office, though he has not explained how he is so confident on the issue. The world keeps its hope on Donald Trump now. The question remains, will the US cut military aid to Ukraine, shifting the balance of power on the battlefield? However, it is certain that as the conflict continues as it has already surpassed 1,000 days, both sides are likely positioning themselves for eventual negotiations holding some strength to bargain. For now, the war’s outcome will depend on who can sustain their efforts longer, a question with no easy answer. Author is National Editor, Greater Kashmir.

President-elect Donald Trump has nominated controversial radio commentator Sebastian Gorka to a spot in his second administration, around six years after Gorka was forced out of Trump’s first administration over his far-right views. Gorka will serve as deputy assistant to the president and senior director for counterterrorism, Trump said in a Friday statement . Trump touted him as “a legal immigrant to the United States, with more than 30 years of National Security experience.” Gorka was born in London to Hungarian parents, and spent years in Hungary working at the country’s defense ministry before moving to the United States, where he has instructed U.S. Marines on counterterrorism topics. He gained notoriety in the first Trump administration for comments describing Islam as not a religion but a violent ideology , and for dismissing the threat of white nationalism in the United States, arguing instead that Islamist extremists were the country’s biggest threat. Gorka’s alleged ties to the Nazi-aligned Hungarian political group Vitézi Rend, whose insignia he wore at Trump’s first inaugural ball , also raised alarm bells in the first Trump White House. The original Vitézi Rend collaborated with Nazis during World War II, and reformed after the fall of Hungary’s communist government in 1989. The Forward, a Jewish publication, reported in March 2017 that Gorka was a sworn member of the hate group. Gorka has said that the medals he wore belonged to his father, who was supposedly given them as “a declaration for his resistance to [Communist] dictatorship,” as Gorka told Breitbart.

Jerry Nadler wrote to Trump asking him to determine whether Gorka was indeed a member of Vitézi Rend, and whether he had omitted any such link in his paperwork to become a naturalized American citizen. Gorka left the White House five months later. Then-White House Chief of Staff John Kelly — who has since warned that Trump would rule like a dictator if given a second term — reportedly revoked Gorka’s security clearance , making it impossible for Gorka to do his job. Gorka’s wife, Katharine Gorka, continued on in her post in the first Trump White House past her husband’s tenure, reportedly helping to end funding for a group that fights white supremacy in the lead-up to the deadly 2017 Charlottesville rally. Former Trump-era national security adviser John Bolton slammed Gorka as a “con man” during an appearance on CNN Friday night. Related From Our PartnerNoneGoogle has revealed its plans to launch its “Google Wallet” service in Egypt starting from January 2025. Google Wallet is a secure and reliable digital solution that allows you to easily save and manage payment methods, cards, ID cards, tickets, and keys, whereas Google Pay that enables you to make purchases easily online, in applications, or using the contactless payment feature in stores that support the service. Google Wallet will be the second digital payment tool to be launched in Egypt, days after Apple made its “Apple Pay” service available. Using Google Pay To start using Google Pay, you must install the Google Pay or Google Wallet application. For Android users, Google Wallet is preferable due to its additional features, such as storing ID cards, loyalty cards, event tickets, permits, public transportation cards, and more. Unlike the Apple Wallet on iOS devices, Google Wallet offers a practical solution for storing a variety of items you would normally carry in your traditional wallet, allowing you to easily access them through your mobile device. Google Pay is primarily focused on enabling mobile payments, however, the Google Pay app was discontinued on June 4 in the US, making the switch to Google Wallet the best option to take advantage of its more comprehensive features. However, Google Wallet is currently not available to iOS users, which means that if you own an iPhone, you will need to continue using the Google Pay app instead for the time being. At the Google Pay mobile app, tap “add account” to add payment methods. After installing the Google Pay or Google Wallet app, you’ll need to sign in to your Google Account and then add a payment method, such as a credit or debit card, to use the service. After you’ve added at least one card to your Google Pay account, you can start making mobile payments in stores. At checkout, look for signs that say Google Pay or contactless payment cards are accepted. All you have to do is unlock your phone, hold it near the payment symbol, and wait for the transaction to be confirmed, without having to open the app. If you have set up more than one payment method in Google Wallet, you can choose which one you want to use when paying. To do this, open the app when you get to the checkout area and swipe through the cards until you reach the card you want to use. Then, hold your phone in front of the payment terminal to complete the transaction as usual. Are Google Pay & Wallet free? The good news is that Google Pay is completely free to use. The Google Pay and Google Wallet apps are free to download, and there are no subscription fees or additional charges for making mobile payments. Of course, that doesn’t mean that purchases made with Google Pay are completely free. Google Pay lets you make payments using credit cards, debit cards, and bank accounts. So if you normally pay interest or fees when you use your card, you’ll still pay those fees when you use it with Google Pay. But the beauty of Google Pay is that there are no additional fees to use it. How secure is it? Google Pay is surprisingly safer than using a credit card for several reasons. First, Google Pay’s payments are encrypted, meaning the service sends payment information using a unique code for each purchase. If the data is intercepted, it won’t be useful to a hacker or thief, since your actual credit card information isn’t available. Perhaps most important is the physical security Google Pay provides. If your physical credit card is lost or stolen, it can be used to make purchases, at least until you notify your credit card company and cancel the card. But when you use Google Pay on your phone, your credit card information is still protected by a passcode or biometric technologies like facial recognition. Pros and Cons of Google Pay One of the advantages of Google Pay is its integration with many other popular Google products. For example, Google offers a price guarantee service through Google Flights, where Google will pay you the difference if the price of your flight drops after you book it. All you need to do is have a Google Pay account to take advantage of this service. Not only is it a secure and reliable payment system, it is also widely compatible with many retailers. All you need to do is look for the Google Pay symbol or the contactless payment symbol when making a payment. With the Google Wallet app, Google Pay offers additional benefits, as users store transit cards, boarding passes, loyalty cards and more, all in one place. However, there are drawbacks to Google Pay. Although it is popular among retailers, especially in major cities, it is still not available everywhere. You may have difficulty using Google Pay to make purchases, especially in smaller areas or independent stores. Edited translation from Al-Masry Al-Youm

I Used AI to Do All of My Holiday ShoppingThe U.S. DOD is in the business of managing risks, notably making tradeoffs between force size, readiness, and technological advancement as well as the traditional acquisition trifecta of cost, schedule, and budget. The U.S. Air Force has been at the forefront of managing these risks, as it seeks to maintain a qualitative edge over the U.S.'s pacing threat, leverage contributions from allies and partners, create a more resilient industrial base, and adapt to the growing importance of uncrewed systems and mass demonstrated in the war in Ukraine. The Air Force intends to buy over a thousand of the uncrewed Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) and has brought in non-traditional vendors and invested in open architectures to help achieve that goal. The CSIS Defense-Industrial Initiatives Group (DIIG) welcomes the Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition, Technology, and Logistics the Honorable Andrew P. Hunter for a discussion on the CCA, the industrial base, and the way the Air Force manages risks to meet current and future needs.

With the cryptocurrency space evolving, the security of digital assets such as cryptocurrency has become a priority, now more than ever. Especially, now as individuals as well as organisations are submerging in blockchain. However, multi-signature (multisig) wallets have been introduced as one of the most trusted ways to negate this risk of unauthorized access, as multiple persons are required to approve transactions before these transactions are executed Multisig wallets with enhanced security / user trust will dominate by 2025 and this article outlines some of the top choices. Understanding Multi-Signature Wallets A transaction from a multi signature wallet must be started with multiple private keys . It provides checks and balances of funds making it beneficial for organisations and individuals seeking heightened security. Based on how they are implemented, the more common setup is the “M-of-N” model, where M of N keys have to be used to authorize a transaction. For instance, a 2 of 3 multi-sig wallet can be set to any two of the three mentioned keys to allow the authorization of a specific transaction. Best Multi-signature Wallets of 2025 BitGo is a popular digital asset trust company which offers services such as multi-sig wallets. Founded in 2013, BitGo wallets have three keys: one held by BitGo and two by the owners. This arrangement enables hot and cold storage solutions to meet a range of security requirements. BitGo also acts as the custodian of Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC) allowing for the usage of Bitcoin on the Ethereum network. Electrum is a lightweight Bitcoin wallet renowned for its speed and security. It supports multi-sig capabilities, meaning the users are allowed to create wallets that need a number of signatures to approve a transaction. Owing to its hardware wallet integration adds an extra layer of security, and makes Electrum stand out as a number-one choice for many users and organizations, alike. Armory is a Bitcoin wallet focused on high security, such as allowing multi-sig support. It enables the creation of the multi-sig addressed with a varying number of authorisers starting from 3-of-3 up to 7-of-7 meeting user’s security needs. Armory’s open-source nature and abilities of cold storage make it a good choice for anyone wanting to safely secure a substantial amount of Bitcoin holdings. Copay is an open-source version of an HD wallet supporting multiple signatures on the same address, enabling shared funds management. It provides up to 2-of-3 authorizers to sign a Bitcoin transaction, making it easy to use for individuals as well as corporations. OKX Wallet is known for offering one of the best security levels, including multisig options. This one uses 2FA (Two-factor authorisation) and also demands several confirmations before completing transactions, in turn improving security and making it difficult for unauthorized people to perform operations. This robust framework of OKX Wallet makes it an exemplary choice for maintaining the integrity of digital assets. Adoption and Market Growth It has been and still is a trend that multi-sig wallets have been implemented. The multi-sig wallet started at a percentage of 15 in 2022 moving up to a percentage of 20 in 2024 and the price estimate expects about 75 per cent of businesses to employ the technology by 2025. Up to date, it demonstrates the increased acknowledgement of the importance of multi-sig wallets for proper protection of digital assets, speaking of staking and corporate wallets. Also, the cryptocurrency wallet market segment is growing at a very fast pace. At the current rate, the global wagons market was estimated to be at around USD 1.1 billion in 2023 which will further grow to USD 3.8 billion by 2032, registering a CAGR of in the vicinity of 15% between 2023 and 2032. It is therefore suggestive of the growing need for safer, more efficient ways of managing digital assets. Pros of Multi-Signature Wallets Enhanced Security: Th e checks and balances in the approval process reduce the kind of exposure that would allow unauthorized people to approve those transactions improperly. Shared Control: Being fit for organisations because it prevents any individual from having full control of the cash. Risk Mitigation: S till, the privacy of the assets is intact because more than one key is needed to access the other parties’ approval. Flexibility: The threat protection options can be adjusted arbitrarily (2 out of 3, 3 out of 5, etc.) to fully meet the user’s requirements. Considerations Before Choosing Multi-Signature Wallet User Experience: The design of the wallet should include also a clear interface to facilitate easy-to-use requirements. Compatibility : Make sure that the wallet can accommodate the exact cryptocurrency that meets one’s requirements. Platform Availability : Consider whether the wallet is available on multiple devices, ensuring smooth transactions on desktop, mobile, or hardware. Reputation : Research the reliability of the wallet provider, the best course is to look at the provider’s past record and users’ reviews. Support and Documentation: Access support and clear documentation are helpful for the setup and troubleshooting. Conclusion In the year 2025, the need to protect assets that are in the digital platform has been deemed more important than ever. Multi-signature wallets are also quite secure because they relieve a user of the burden of authorizing a transaction alone since many signatures are required for the initiation of a transaction. The multi-sig options are aimed at different needs for users and unique characteristics of users’ wallets like multi-sig, including such options as the advanced multi-sig features of wallets like BitGo, Electrum, Armory, Copay, and Okx Wallet. Multisig wallets will be even more important as more individuals enter the cryptocurrency space to protect their assets and secure transactions.

Iowa cornerback Jermari Harris has opted out of the remainder of the 2024 season in order to prepare for the NFL draft, according to a report by 247Sports.com . The 6-foot-1 sixth-year senior from Chicago has recorded 27 tackles, three interceptions and a team-high seven pass breakups in 10 games for the Hawkeyes this season. That includes a pick-6 in a 38-21 win over Troy earlier this season. Iowa (6-4, 4-3 Big Ten) plays at Maryland on Saturday before closing out its regular season at home against Nebraska on Nov. 29. The Hawkeyes are already bowl eligible, so Harris is likely opting out of three games in total. After missing the entire 2022 season due to an ankle injury, Harris was suspended for two games of the following season for his involvement in the gambling investigation into Iowa athletics. He later emerged as the Hawkeyes' top cornerback, earning the team's comeback player of the year award after compiling 42 tackles, one interception and eight pass breakups. Harris will finish his college career with 105 tackles and eight interceptions. --Field Level MediaAndy Murray enters new chapter with Novak Djokovic as coach of long-time rivalNone
