Russia’s shadow fleet pass through UK waters after Starmer’s boarding threat

More than two dozen vessels belonging to Russia's so-called 'shadow fleet' have continued to traverse UK waters, despite Prime Minister Keir Starmer's recent authorisation for the military to detain ships exporting Russian oil.
Analysis of ship tracking data by Reuters reveals that sanctioned oil tankers are still passing along England's southern coast in the same volumes as before the government's announcement last week.
British officials had stated just under a week ago that the military was preparing to board vessels for sanctions breaches, with the hope that this public warning would compel the ships to adopt longer routes away from British territory.
Moscow condemned the move as “deeply hostile” and indicated potential retaliation.
However, since that declaration, the British military has not reported any boarding operations, while at least 25 sanctioned ships have entered British waters via the Channel, according to the Reuters findings.

‘A beautiful, kind innocent soul’: Teacher and six children among Canada shooting victims in close-knit community

Eight people, including six children, were killed on Tuesday in a deadly mass shooting that rocked Tumbler Ridge, a small, close-knit community located in British Columbia.
The suspected shooter, 18-year-old Jesse Van Rootselaar, who police say killed her 39-year-old mother and 11-year-old stepbrother at a nearby home before opening fire at Tumbler Ridge Secondary School, was also found dead with a “self-inflicted injury.”
Police said the teenager was born biologically male but had been transitioning to female over the past six years. She was not a student at the school, and it was not immediately clear if she had previously studied at Tumbler Ridge Secondary.
Two victims with “significant injuries” were airlifted to the hospital.
Paige Hoekstra, who was taken to Vancouver for treatment, is now on the road to recovery, according to her family.
