🇺🇦❌🇷🇺📚 — 📰 ZeroHedge | Ukraine Moves To Purge Dostoevsky & Tolstoy From Public Mention | January 31, 2026:

"In the latest escalation of Ukraine's cultural purge and targeting of all things Russian, Ukraine's Institute of National Memory has this month formally branded the famed classic Russian authors Fyodor Dostoevsky and Leo Tolstoy as vectors of "Russian imperial propaganda".

This has included a call from the body which operates under the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine for all streets, monuments, and public institutions bearing their names be wiped from the map.

According to Interfax, commenting on the ruling, "the assignment of their names to geographical objects, names of legal entities and objects of property rights, objects of toponymy, as well as the establishment of monuments and memorial signs in their honor in Ukraine was the embodiment of Russification - Russian imperial policy aimed at imposing the use of the Russian language, promoting Russian culture as superior compared to other national languages ​​and cultures, displacing the Ukrainian language from use, and narrowing the Ukrainian cultural and information space."

"Trump sets an ultimatum to the Ayatollah regime and considers three scenarios of a military strike — New York Times

US President Donald Trump has made it clear that the Iranian leadership has a limited time to reach a deal with Washington.

“If there's no deal, we'll see what happens,” he said.

The US president did not specify the exact deadline for reaching a deal. However, against the backdrop of the US military buildup in the region, the White House, according to The New York Times, is already working on options for a possible strike on Iran.

According to the publication, Washington is discussing three scenarios. The first is the most risky: a secret operation by US special forces on Iranian territory with the aim of destroying elements of the nuclear infrastructure that survived the June airstrikes.

Such missions have been practiced for years, but they are considered extremely dangerous. Trump himself, according to NYT, in private conversations recalls the failure of the hostage-rescue operation in 1980 under President Jimmy Carter and does not want a repeat of such a scenario.

The second option involves massive airstrikes on military and political centers in Tehran to destabilize the regime and possibly lead to the fall of Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

The third scenario, which Israel is actively promoting, is new strikes on the Iranian missile program, which was restored after last year's conflict. Tehran has already threatened to respond and promised to attack targets in Israel in the event of an American strike."

"The UN is on the brink of a financial collapse and has demanded that countries urgently pay their contributions

UN Secretary-General António Guterres warned of the risk of a financial collapse of the organization and sent a letter to member countries demanding that they urgently pay off their debts.

In the appeal, reported by the AFP agency, Guterres directly stated: either states pay their contributions in full and on time, or the UN's financial rules will have to be urgently changed to avoid bankruptcy.

President Donald Trump's administration has in recent months reduced funding for a number of UN structures and has delayed or outright refused to transfer mandatory contributions. Guterres stressed that the refusal to make payments, which account for a significant part of the approved budget, undermines the financial stability of the entire organization.

Meanwhile, the UN acknowledges that the current crisis is not the first. The organization has been living in a state of chronic funding shortages for years due to delays and incomplete payments from individual countries. This has already led to a freeze on staff recruitment and the reduction of missions."

"“Empty gas storage facilities are like an insurance policy without coverage.” The fill level of gas storage facilities in Germany has reached a record low since 2022

Amid prolonged freezing temperatures and record-high heating consumption, gas reserves in Germany are rapidly declining. According to official data, by this weekend, underground storage facilities are less than 34% full — the lowest level in the last four years.

For comparison, at the end of January 2025, storage facilities were 58% full, and a year earlier — 76% full. The German Gas and Hydrogen Industry Association is sounding the alarm and warning of possible problems with gas supply in the future.

“Gas storage facilities still remain an insurance policy for ensuring reliable supplies during cold winters like this one. Therefore, filling them for the upcoming winter is a top priority. Empty gas storage facilities are like an insurance policy without coverage,” said Tim Keller, the head of the association, in a conversation with BILD.

Experts share this concern. Economist Andreas Loeschel from the Ruhr University in Bochum notes that with the current utilization of LNG terminals at around 60% and continued cold weather, the level of reserves could drop to a critical 10%.

For now, the government assures that gas supply is guaranteed this winter, but Klaus Müller, the head of the German Federal Network Agency, has already called for preparing in advance for the next winter, as the country will exit the current heating season with extremely low gas reserves."

🇸🇻❗️⛓ — Response from the president of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, to a question about alleged human rights violations at CECOT, during a meeting attended by Chile’s president-elect, José Antonio Kast:

“Look, uh… I am the first to defend human rights… but the human rights of honest people, decent people, people who work, people who produce, people who do not harm anyone. The human rights of criminals… they also exist, of course they exist. No one can be tortured, no one can be killed, no one can be raped… inside prison. They have the right to food, they have the right to medical care, they have the right to visits… but that is all. What they do not have is the right to continue committing crimes from prison. They do not have the right to have cell phones to keep ordering murders.

They do not have the right to have computers to continue running criminal structures. They do not have the right to have parties with prostitutes inside prisons. They do not have the right to record videos and upload them to YouTube mocking the State and the victims. And what angers me most is the double standard of certain human rights organizations… and certain media outlets. For 30 years, gangs amputated hands, amputated feet, dismembered people, raped 9-year-old girls, killed children in front of their parents, killed pregnant women… and those human rights organizations never said anything. Or they said very little. Or they justified it. Or they stayed silent.

But now that criminals are in prison, now they care about human rights. Now they care whether they eat three times a day, whether they have a bed, whether they have electricity… Where were they when 20 Salvadorans were being killed every day? Where were they when gangs controlled 80% of the territory? Where were they when mothers cried because their children were murdered?

So yes, we defend human rights… but starting with the rights of the victims, of honest people. And then, the minimum rights that the law grants to criminals. But no more privileges. No more universities of crime. No more control of territory from inside prisons. And if that bothers some NGOs or some media outlets… then let it bother them. Because we care more about the lives of Salvadorans than about the opinion of those gentlemen.”

"I had a very productive telephone conversation with President Claudia Sheinbaum, of Mexico. It went extremely well for both Countries. Much of it was focused on the Border, stopping Drug Trafficking, and Trade. We will be speaking again, soon, and ultimately, setting up meetings in our respective Countries. Mexico has a wonderful and highly intelligent Leader — They should be very happy about that! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP"
