The Russian Defence Ministry has provided a briefing on the Ukraine op:

▪ The Kremlin has created a humanitarian corridor for the exit of foreign ships from the maritime regions of Ukraine, which will start operating daily from March 25, as foreign vessels cannot leave Ukrainian ports because of the threat of shelling;

▪ Since March 2, Moscow has offered 4,933 tons of humanitarian cargo (food, clothing, hygiene products and medicines) to civilians in the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, Kiev, Chernigov, Sumy, Kharkov, Zaporozhye, Kherson and Nikolayev regions;

▪ The Russian Armed Forces have strictly observed a ceasefire on all routes, including those declared by Ukraine;

▪ Kiev's approach to Moscow’s humanitarian corridors reveals an indifference to the current government and to its people

⚽️ Arizona GOP votes to restrict transgender sports, surgeries

The Arizona Legislature passed bills Thursday to prohibit gender reassignment surgery for minors and ban transgender athletes from playing on women’s sports teams, joining a growing list of Republican-controlled states attempting to restrict transgender rights which have gained visibility in culture and society.

Two GOP governors this week bucked conservatives in their own party and vetoed bills in Indiana and Utah requiring trans women to play on men’s sports teams.

Arizona is one of 20 states that have considered legislation to restrict gender-affirming health care. The bill originally would have banned all such care for minors, but was scaled back to restrict only irreversible procedures, such as surgeries related to gender reassignment.
