Belarus’ dictatorial president Alexander Lukasheko is getting ever closer to the Kremlin - this week he even brokered a truce between the Wagner group and president Putin to prevent a march on Moscow. But Belarusians don’t want to be a vassal of Russia and - outside of this small country’s borders - a group of exiled pro-democracy protesters are taking up arms and training themselves to fight back.

And though Putin has made a show of Russia's economic strength, his actions have only bought Russia more time, researchers warned. "That resilience is nothing but a Potemkin façade, sustained not through genuine economic productivity but rather through shaking down the entire country for pennies to direct towards war," Sonnenfeld and Tian said. "Putin can continue to sustain his invasion of Ukraine this way, but in doing so, continues to rip...

A study conducted has demonstrated for the first time that the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) can be significantly improved by additionally measuring the thickness of retinal layers in the eye.

This can lead to a decisive increase in the chance of improved patient outcomes. As part of their investigation, the research team collaborated to examine 267 MS patients over a period of five years. Their research builds on study results, which showed that MS relapse-related damage...
