Zelensky Announces New Draft Law to Restore Anti‑Corruption Agency Independence

Following widespread protests and international criticism over a law curbing the independence of Ukraine’s anti-corruption agencies, President Zelensky has announced a new draft bill designed to restore autonomy to NABU (National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine) and SAPO (Specialized Anti‑Corruption Prosecutor’s Office). What We Found On July 22, 2025, Ukraine’s parliament passed, and Zelensky signed into law, legislation that significantly increased the authority of the prosecutor general—an appointed ally—over NABU and SAPO, undermining their independence. This sparked the largest wartime protests since Russia’s invasion, with demonstrators across Kyiv, Lviv, Dnipro, and Odessa demanding the bill be vetoed. Thousands took to the streets with banners reading “We chose Europe, not autocracy,” warning that the law tilted Ukraine back toward authoritarianism and jeopardized EU aspirations.

UN: 6,000 Lorry Loads of Aid Ready for Gaza, Israel Must Allow Access

The United Nations says it has stacked up 6,000 lorry‑loads of aid supplies—enough to feed Gaza for two months—ready at border crossings and is urging Israel to allow access to distribute it to civilians in need. What We Found According to the UN and WFP, more than 140,000 tonnes of food—equivalent to about 6,000 truckloads—are assembled at crossings for entry into Gaza. This stockpile could feed the enclave’s population for two months if allowed. However, Israel continues to restrict access, causing a bottleneck and widespread shortages. As of 22 May 2025, only around 90 trucks had been allowed in post‑blockade, far short of daily needs. When allowed, aid moves slowly due to Israeli-imposed security checks and limited access routes. UN aid chiefs have warned that delaying approvals means UNRWA and WFP must rely on emergency interim systems, while malnutrition and […]

What We Found UNICEF Representative Osama Makkawi Khogali confirmed Ghana fulfilled the 2025 vaccine co‑financing payment of $24.5 million, restoring the government's strong pre-pandemic track record. The payment ensures no vaccine stock-outs, protects herd immunity among children, and strengthens Ghana’s broader health system—making immunisation more sustainable as Gavi support phases down.

Expert Insight UNICEF described the payment as a strong demonstration of political resolve to prioritise child health and reduce vaccine-preventable diseases. As development aid wanes, Ghana's move aligns with its “Transition Roadmap: Towards Self-financing of […]

What We Found On July 23, 2025, Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron filed a 218‑page, 22‑count defamation lawsuit in Delaware Superior Court against Owens, citing her repeated refusal to retract the false claims and alleging a deliberate “campaign of global humiliation” for attention and profit.
