According to Reuters, citizens in Lviv, Ukraine, are marking Christmas in traditional attire, asserting their cultural identity despite the war. Meanwhile, in Gaza, the majority of the 2.4 million residents are living in makeshift tents in Khan Younis. The onset of winter has triggered grave humanitarian concerns as families struggle to survive in the cold.
Political Seismic Shifts in Bangladesh and Myanmar
In a historic turn of events, Tarique Rahman, the acting chairman of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party, returned to Dhaka after 17 years in exile. More than one million supporters gathered at the airport to welcome him. Conversely, in Myanmar, a month-long general election has begun, though critics describe it as a move to legitimize military rule.
