Summary
Day 1,260.
Today, as Donald Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff meets Vladimir Putin for so-called ceasefire negotiations, President Zelensky releases a video marking a year since Ukrainian troops invaded Russia’s Kursk oblast and Ukraine's Prosecutor General's Office opens another investigation into alleged Russian war crimes after a video emerges of a civilian being gunned down in the Donbas. Plus, we explore issues around the use of tourniquets in combat and how their misuse might be causing unnecessary deaths.
