Let us tell you a story about this young girl in Harry Potter shoes–an Argentine who was set to start 6th grade last summer when she was whisked onto a CIA jet with her mom
Sophie didn’t know her family was Russian–or their place in a global shadow war
Honored that our @WSJ reporting has been recognized with two Emmy nominations: for coverage of Sudan’s overlooked war and the lethal innovation of Ukraine’s drone pilots. Grateful to the teams and the people who trusted us with their stories.

Don't miss this extraordinary short film by @bcsolomon from the front lines of Ukraine—where fast-evolving tactics have transformed a 20-year-old into "Darwin," one of Ukraine's deadliest drone pilots.

The @WSJ piece on Ukraine drone warfare is incredibly well-produced — seriously one of the most immersive and well-crafted things l've seen. It does a great job at putting you right into the perspective of what the front lines is like for these drone pilots. The new age of warfare is absolutely terrifying. I can't even begin to imagine what it's like to be in the middle of a war. My heart goes out to all of those affected and their families. 🙏🏼❤️
Huge respect goes out to @bcsolomon for being brave enough to capture these important stories on the frontline.

Correspondent @bcsolomon interviewed “Darwin” one of the Ukraine’s deadliest drone pilots who fight against Russia. Darwin is just 20 years old.

Ukrainian artillery teams have been working around the clock to try to slow Moscow’s advances.
Troops say that they are outgunned —for each artillery round fired, Russia fires ten.

Goodbye @Delta. After many loyal years watching prices climb, customer service decline, unusable points/promo systems and an overall inability to communicate, the last straw seems to be this insane, unobtainable points system. Given all of your failings, why would I stay?
Our interview with @SpeakerPelosi
NEW @VICENews intv w @SpeakerPelosi on the stakes of US support for Ukraine:
“Is there a limit to our defense of democracy…to stopping your immoral, illegal indecent invasion of another country? I dont think there’s any limit to our opposition to that.” youtu.be/aUGktXHRKLk?si=xlt3…
