Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy thanked the US after its Senate approved a landmark $40 billion aid package to the country.
"It is a manifestation of strong leadership and a necessary contribution to our common defence of freedom," Zelenskyy said in his nightly address on Thursday published shortly after the Senate vote.
Zelenskyy also repeated accusations of genocide against Russia after reports emerged that 12 civilians were killed in a shelling of the eastern town of Severodonetsk while saying that there was "hell" in Donbas.

US approves $40 billion aid to Ukraine, Zelenskyy heaps praise on Biden

The Senate whisked a USD 40 billion package of military, economic and food aid for Ukraine and US allies to final congressional approval Thursday, putting a bipartisan stamp on America's biggest commitment yet to turning Russia's invasion into a painful quagmire for Moscow.
The legislation, approved 86-11, was backed by every voting Democrat and most Republicans. While many issues under President Joe Biden have collapsed under party-line gridlock, Thursday's lopsided vote signaled that both parties were largely unified about sending Ukraine the materiel it needs to fend off Russian President Vladimir Putin's more numerous forces.
"I applaud the Congress for sending a clear bipartisan message to the world that the people of the United States stand together with the brave people of Ukraine as they defend their democracy and freedom," Biden said in a written statement.

Canada bans Chinese telecom giant Huawei, ZTE from 5G network

The U.S. has long pressed it's northern neighbour to deny Huawei a role in building the country’s 5G infrastructure, saying it would allow Beijing to spy on Canadians more easily.

The rest of the Five Eyes network &ndash; the United States, Britain, Australia and New Zealand &ndash; have already banned Huawei equipment.

A Russian soldier facing the first war crimes trial since the start of the war in Ukraine testified Thursday that he shot a civilian on orders from two officers and pleaded for his victim's widow to forgive him.
Sgt. Vadim Shishimarin told the court that the officer insisted that the Ukrainian man, who was speaking on his cellphone, could pinpoint their location to the Ukrainian forces.
The 21-year-old sergeant could get life in prison if convicted of shooting the Ukrainian man in the head through an open car window in a village in the northeastern Sumy region on February 28, four days into the Russian invasion.
Looking subdued, Shishimarin said he at first disobeyed his immediate commanding officer's order to shoot the unarmed civilian but had no other choice but to follow the order when it was repeated forcefully by another officer.

After the US confirmed a single case of Monkeypox on Wednesday, there are fresh concerns emerging amid the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. Recently, reports of the disease being present in some parts of Europe also increased tension.
What is Monkeypox?
The World Health Organization (WHO) defines Monkeypox as a viral zoonotic disease caused by the monkeypox virus belongng to the same family of viruses which causes smallpox.
What are the origins of the virus and how common is it?
As per Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), monkeypox was first discovered in 1958 when two outbreaks of a pox-like disease occurred in colonies of monkeys kept for research. Hence the name ‘monkeypox.’
In humans, the first case of monkeypox was recorded in 1970 in Congo. Since then, the virus has remained majorly restricted to African nations.
Though, occasional cases have been reported in the US, UK, Singapore and Israel.
What are the symptoms of the disease?
Symptoms of monkeypox are similar but milder than that of smallpox. Monkeypox begins with fever, headache, muscle aches, and exhaustion. Within 1 to 3 days (sometimes longer) after the appearance of fever, the patient develops a rash, often beginning on the face then spreading to other parts of the body. The illness typically lasts for 2−4 weeks.
How is Monkeypox transmitted?
Infection spreads from direct contact with the blood, bodily fluids of the infected animals. Eating inadequately cooked meat and other animal products of infected animals is a possible risk factor.
Human-to-human, transmission is relatively limited. Infection can result from close contact with respiratory secretions, skin lesions of an infected person or recently contaminated objects. Transmission via droplet respiratory particles usually requires prolonged face-to-face contact
Source of infection
In Africa, evidence of monkeypox virus infection has been found in many animals including rope squirrels, tree squirrels, Gambian poached rats, dormice, different species of monkeys. The natural reservoir of monkeypox has not yet been identified, though rodents are the most likely source of infection.
Who are at most risk of the disease?
In Africa, monkeypox has been shown to cause death in as many as 1 in 10 persons who contract the disease. The fatality has been observed to be higher among young children.
Prevention and Treatment
Curently, there is no specific treatment for monkeypox virus however, the smallpox vaccine has been demonstrated to be about 85% effective in preventing the disease.
Avoiding direct contact with infected humans or animals, isolation, good hand hygiene and using personal protective gears are some of the preventive measures.

Multiple news reports quoting unnamed intelligence sources suggest that a ground assessment by the security establishment has pointed out that the Chinese army is building a second bridge on the Pangong Lake in eastern Ladakh.
The People’s Liberation Army had constructed the first one in January this year.
An unnamed security official attached to the Union home ministry told The Telegraph that the latest ground assessment has revealed increased infrastructure activity by China along the Line of Actual Control, including the construction of a second bridge on the Pangong Lake.
Sources told the newspaper that China was also ramping up its infrastructure within India-claimed lines on the strategic Depsang Plains and elsewhere, building roads and settlements for its troops.
Corroboration of the claims about a second bridge came from Damien Symon, a geospatial intelligence researcher at the Intel Lab, and Ladakh councillor Konchok Stanzin who on on Wednesday tweeted satellite images of what he said was the under-development second bridge.
In January, satellite images had suggested that the Chinese army was building an eight-metre-wide bridge within India-claimed lines over the Pangong Lake, which security experts had said would give China “a strategic edge”.

Calling out the West, India has said that food grains should not go the way of the Covid-19 vaccines as it voiced concern over hoarding, discrimination and the “unjustified increase” in food prices that pose a threat to the food security of many vulnerable countries amidst the war in Ukraine.
India also stressed that its decision to restrict wheat exports will ensure it can truly respond to those most in need.
“A number of low-income societies are today confronted with the twin challenges of rising costs and difficulty in access to food grains. Even those like India, which have adequate stocks, have seen an unjustified increase in food prices. It is clear that hoarding and speculation are at work. We cannot allow this to pass unchallenged,” Minister of State for External Affairs V Muraleedharan said here on Wednesday.
Muraleedharan was speaking at the ministerial meeting on ‘Global Food Security Call to Action’ chaired by US Secretary of State Antony Blinken under the US Presidency of the UN Security Council for the month of May.
The meeting came days after India’s decision last Friday to ban wheat exports in a bid to check high prices amid a shortage of wheat due to a scorching heatwave.
The decision is aimed at controlling the retail prices of wheat and wheat flour -- which have risen by an average of 14-20 per cent in the last year -- and meeting the foodgrain requirement of neighbouring and vulnerable countries.
At the meeting, India called out the West and cautioned that the issue of food grains should not go the way of Covid-19 vaccines, which were purchased by the rich nations in quantities excess of what they needed, leaving the poor and less developed nations scrambling to administer even the initial doses to their people.
“It is necessary for all of us to adequately appreciate the importance of equity, affordability and accessibility when it comes to food grains.
“We have already seen to our great cost how these principles were disregarded in the case of Covid-19 vaccines. Open markets must not become an argument to perpetuate inequity and promote discrimination,” Muraleedharan said, making a strong statement.
Although India is the world's second-biggest wheat producer, it has not previously been a major exporter as most of its crop is sold on domestic markets.
But Ukraine's wheat exports plunged after the Russian invasion. And with droughts and floods threatening crops in other major producers, commodity traders were expecting supplies from India to make up for part of the shortfall.
Before the ban, India had aimed to ship a record 10 million tonnes of wheat this year.
The Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) had in the last week's notification said that wheat exports will be allowed on the basis of permission granted by the central government.
At the high-level meeting, India spoke about the issue of the wheat export ban for the first time in the UN since its May 13 announcement.
Muraleedharan said the Indian government has recognised the sudden spike in global prices of wheat which put “our food security and those of our neighbours and other vulnerable countries at risk.” “We are committed to ensuring that such adverse impact on food security is effectively mitigated and the vulnerable cushioned against sudden changes in the global market.
"In order to manage our own overall food security and support the needs of neighbouring and other vulnerable developing countries, we have announced some measures regarding wheat exports on May 13, 2022,” he said.
“Let me make it clear that these measures allow for export on the basis of approvals to those countries which are required to meet their food security demands. This will be done at the request of the concerned governments. Such a policy will ensure that we will truly respond to those who are most in need,” he said.
The minister emphasised that India will play its due role in advancing global food security and it will do so in a manner in which it upholds equity, displays compassion, and promotes social justice.
Ahead of Washington’s signature events on food security, US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield said, “We have seen the report of India’s decision. We’re encouraging countries not to restrict exports because we think any restrictions on exports will exacerbate the food shortages." "But you’ve – again, India will be one of the countries participating in our meeting at the Security Council, and we hope that they can, as they hear the concerns being raised by other countries, they would reconsider that position,” said the US ambassador to the UN.
Muraleedharan highlighted India’s “track record” of helping its partners in distress, saying that even in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic and ongoing conflicts, India has never been found wanting.
“We have provided food aid in the form of thousands of metric tonnes of wheat, rice, pulses, and lentils to several countries, including our neighbourhood and Africa, to strengthen their food security,” he said, adding that in view of the deteriorating humanitarian situation in Afghanistan, India is donating 50,000 metric tonnes of wheat to the people of the war-torn country.
India has continued its humanitarian support for Myanmar, including a grant of 10,000 tons of rice and wheat, he said.
“We are also assisting Sri Lanka, including with food assistance, during these difficult times,” he said.
“In keeping with our ethos of ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’, (the world is one family) and our ‘Neighbourhood First’ policy, we will continue to assist our neighbours, in their hour of need, and stand by them, always,” he said.
India underlined that the global impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and ongoing conflicts, including in Ukraine, has impacted the lives of ordinary people adversely, particularly in the developing countries, with spiralling energy and commodity prices and disruptions in global logistical supply chains.

The battle that turned Mariupol into a worldwide symbol of defiance and suffering drew toward a close as Russia said nearly 1,000 last-ditch Ukrainian fighters who held out inside a pulverized steel plant had surrendered.
Meanwhile, the first captured Russian soldier to be put on trial by Ukraine on war-crimes charges pleaded guilty Wednesday to killing a civilian and could get life in prison.
Finland and Sweden applied to join NATO, abandoning generations of neutrality for fear that Russian President Vladimir Putin will not stop with Ukraine.
The Ukrainian fighters who emerged from the ruined Azovstal steelworks after being ordered by their military to abandon the last stronghold of resistance in the now-flattened port city face an uncertain fate.
Some were taken by the Russians to a former penal colony in territory controlled by Moscow-backed separatists.
While Ukraine said it hopes to get the soldiers back in a prisoner swap, Russia threatened to put some of them on trial for war crimes.
Amnesty International said the Red Cross should be given immediate access to the fighters.

President Joe Biden on Wednesday invoked the Defense Production Act to speed production of infant formula and authorized flights to import supply from overseas, as he faces mounting political pressure over a domestic shortage caused by the safety-related closure of the country's largest formula manufacturing plant.
The Defense Production Act order requires suppliers of formula manufacturers to fulfill orders from those companies before other customers, in an effort to eliminate production bottlenecks. Biden is also authorizing the Defense Department to use commercial aircraft to fly formula supplies that meet federal standards from overseas to the U.S., in what the White House is calling “Operation Fly Formula.”
"This is really an attempt by the Biden administration to show that it is pulling out all the stops to address the shortage," said Zeke Miller of the Associated Press.
Supplies of baby formula across the country have been severely curtailed in recent weeks after a February recall by Abbott Nutrition exacerbated ongoing supply chain disruptions among formula makers, leaving fewer options on store shelves and increasingly anxious parents struggling to find nutrition for their children.
The announcement comes two days after the Food and Drug Administration said it was streamlining its review process to make it easier for foreign manufacturers to begin shipping more formula into the U.S.
In a letter Wednesday to the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Agriculture, Biden directed the agencies to work with the Pentagon to identify overseas supply of formula that meets U.S. standards over the next week, so that chartered Defense Department flights can swiftly fly it to the U.S.
“Imports of baby formula will serve as a bridge to this ramped-up production,” Biden wrote.
Regulators said Monday that they’d reached a deal to allow Abbott Nutrition to restart its Sturgis, Michigan, plant, the nation's largest formula plant, which has been closed since February due to contamination issues. The company must overhaul its safety protocols and procedures before resuming production.

In a letter Wednesday to the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of Agriculture, Biden directed the agencies to work with the Pentagon to identify overseas supply of formula that meets U.S. standards over the next week, so that chartered Defense Department flights can swiftly fly it to the U.S.
&ldquo;Imports of baby formula will serve as a bridge to this ramped-up production,&rdquo; Biden wrote.
Regulators said Monday that they&rsquo;d reached a deal to allow Abbott Nutrition to restart its Sturgis, Michigan, plant, the nation's largest formula plant, which has been closed since February due to contamination issues. The company must overhaul its safety protocols and procedures before resuming production.

In a horrible crime in Pakistan, a son allegedly killed and beheaded his father. The alleged murderer chopped his father's body into various pieces, and dumped them in different parts of Karachi.
The crime came to light when police discovered a bag with human body parts, but no head and legs. Pakistan police worked hard to identify the victim, and found out that it was a man named Saleem Khilji.
The victim's relatives were then questioned, and during interrogation, the son confessed to his crime, police said. The alleged killer claimed that his father used to beat him up and abuse him.
The crime took place on April 21. The victim was killed with hammer blows to the head, before being beheaded and dismembered.

US President Donald Trump has arrived in Vietnam, ahead of his two day summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in the capital Hanoi. Earlier, Kim arrived in the late morning at the Dong Dang train station at Vietnam’s border with China after a 65-hour, 2,500-mile train journey from Pyongyang. Both leaders were given a red carpet receptions before the summit. The Trump-Kim summit is scheduled to begin with a private dinner on Wednesday evening.

Pup on the loose on Bangkok's streets. The internet had a field day as a cute pooch's mugshot was plastered all over everyone's feed. 
Now named Natasha Romanov after the Marvel spy character, the little pooch ran away from her owner when he set her down in a backpack to go buy food. 
A good samaritan found the pup roaming the streets of Bangkok and called the police to help the dog reunite with her owner.
Social media posts were flooded with mugshots of the retriever. The board accompanying the shot made it clear that the dog was being charged with 'getting lost'.
While many people offered to adopt the dog, the Bangkok police said that if no one claimed her, they would train her as the station canine. 
Sadly for the police, her owner showed up at the station with proof of his ownership, leaving no choice for them but to give her back.
The Chinese man who owns her, Gu Qin Yuan, said he'd be heading back to China once the country reopens borders.

Voyager 1, the exploratory spacecraft launched by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) 45 years ago is at the threshold of the solar system. It is 23.3 billion kilometres away from Earth and contiues to function as good as one can expect a 45-year-old craft to in interstellar space.
However, the scientists and engineers at NASA have seemingly encountered communication issues with Voyager. Unusual, and random signals are being sent back to Earth from the spacecraft.
Readouts from the system that control's the spacecraft's orientation in space are not corroborating with Voyager's actual actions. The attitude articulation and control system, or AACS makes sure that the probe's antenna faces Earth so that data and communication can carry on smoothly.
The issues have not triggered any onboard fault protection systems that are designed to put the spacecraft into a 'safe-mode, when only essential operations are carried out. The 'safe-mode' gives engineers ample time to work through the problems onboard.
However, the connection with Voyager has not weakened so the scientists are of the opinion that the AACS antenna is still pointed towards Earth.
So, where are the unusual communications coming from? That is what the team is trying to determine at NASA. It is still unsure if the data is coming directly from the AACS or there is something else that is causing these signals to come through.
"A mystery like this is sort of par for the course at this stage of the Voyager mission," said Suzanne Dodd, project manager for Voyager 1 and 2 at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, in a statement.
"The spacecraft is almost 45 years old, which is far beyond what the mission planners anticipated. We're also in interstellar space -- a high-radiation environment that no spacecraft have flown in before. So there are some big challenges for the engineering team. But I think if there's a way to solve this issue with the AACS, our team will find it."
Dodd went onto add that if the team does not determine the source of the issue, they might just adapt to it. If they do get to the root of the problem, they might try to rectify it through software changes or relying on a redundant hardware system.
This, however, is not the first time NASA's engineers have encountered a problem with Voyager. Back in 2017, Voyager 1's primary thrusters started to degrade. The engineers then decided to switch to another set of thrusters that were originally used during the spacecraft's planetary encounters.
Voyager 2, a twin spacecraft, continues to operate well in interstellar space 12.1 billion miles (19.5 billion kilometers) from Earth. Now, they have become the only two spacecraft to gather data from interstellar space and provide insights about the heliosphere, or the bubble created by the sun that extends beyond the planets in our solar system.
 

What is Voyager 1 trying to tell NASA? Engineers perplexed by mysterious signals

North Korea, the country that attempts to control every move of its citizens has come up with another recommendation for them to follow. Reeling under a deadly Covid outbreak, the unvaccinated country has come up with an ordinary home remedies to combat coronavirus.
The state media has recommended various traditional treatments which include hot drinks, painkillers and antiobiotics.
Gargling with salt water is one of the home remedies proposed by the country to fight the contagious infection. Among other suggestions, citizens have also been told to drink willow leaf or honeysuckle tea to ease the symptoms. Willow leaf is a herbal remedy traditionally used to relieve fever symptoms.
A woman was quoted telling the state broadcasters that traditional treatments are the best, having administered the same to her children. Another elderly lady advocated for ginger tea to fight Covid. The lady went onto say that at first 'she was scared by Covid' but in reality it was 'not a big deal' as she continuously followed doctors' advice.
The country has been hit by a disastrous wave of Covid-19. Limited testing capabilities, flawed health care system and an unvaccinated population are adding to the pressures of the nation as it fights the virus.
North Korea and Eritrea are the only two countries to have rejected global vaccine-sharing initiatives.
The state media outlet Korean Central News Agency reported 1.7 million cases of 'fever' and 62 deaths as a result of it till Tuesday. BBC opined that the hermit nation is yet to declare this supposed 'fever' outbreak a Covid-19 wave. Adding that limited testing capabilities are causing a hindrance to the nation's ability to diagnose cases.
Experts have issued warnings that the country's actual Covid-19 case numbers could be considerably higher than that what is being reported.
Kim Jong-Un, the country's leader has termed the 'fever' outbreak as its most 'significant turmoil' since its founding in 1948.

The world record holder in towing multi-ton equipment, Sergey Agadzhanyan, nicknamed the "Russian Hulk", set a new world record on May 19, by towing three helicopters at the same time without the use of special devices such as ladders.
During towing of helicopters, the Russian Hulk inflated a medical heating pad (hot water bottle) to burst.
The total weight of the helicopters in combination, consisting of two Ansat helicopters and one Mi-8 helicopter, was 15.6 tons, which Agadzhanyan moved by 4.3 metres in 24.63 seconds.
The helicopters were lined up parallel to each other facing the athlete - the legendary Mi-8 helicopter weighing nine tons in the middle, with two Ansat helicopters on sides loaded up to 3.3 tons each.
The athlete had to make three attempts, struggling to pull the helicopters along the slippery road because of rain.
The record was registered by the president of the Federation of Power Extreme of Russia, Vasily Grishchenko.
The event took place at the flight test complex of the Kazan Helicopter Plant, part of the Russian helicopters holding company of the state corporation Rostec.
