Football legend Pele appeals to Putin to stop the war

Brazilian football legend Pele on Wednesday made a public appeal to Russian President Vladimir Putin to stop the war. He made this appeal minutes before Ukraine's football team played in a World Cup qualifying match.

Pele said in an Instagram post – I want to use today's match for an appeal. No argument can justify violence. War is not right, it will bring nothing but pain, fear, terror, and suffering.

Action on 2 Russian leaders who appealed to stop the war

Two Russian lawmakers have been fired from the Communist Party for appealing to President Vladimir Putin to end the war in Ukraine. The names of these MPs are Leonid Vasukevich and Gennady Shulga. Both the MPs have been termed as anti-nationals. Vasukevich appealed to Putin to stop the war and withdraw the troops.

At the same time, Shulga had said that if Russia does not stop the military operation, then the number of orphans in the country will increase. The two leaders said this during a meeting of the Legislative Assembly of the Primorsky Region in eastern Russia last Friday. Following his appeal, several lawmakers and the region's governor, Oleg Kozhemyako, tried to silence him.

Kozhemyako accused Vasukevich of tarnishing the reputation of the Russian Army.

The US will give a dangerous Himars missile system to Ukraine: target up to 80 km

The US has announced the supply of state-of-the-art High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) to Ukraine against Russia.

4 soldiers are required to operate HIMARS. Also, it can fire a missile in less than 2 minutes, whereas the MLRS currently with Ukraine takes 5 minutes.
