Kinmen is 10km from Xiamen on the Chinese mainland and 187km from Taiwan.

Casualties fell as a result of friendly fire on October 7, but the IDF believes that beyond the operational investigations of the events, it would not be morally sound to investigate these incidents due to the immense and complex quantity of them that took place in the kibbutzim and southern Israeli communities due to the challenging situations the soldiers were in at the time.
Naturally, our closest ally did what it does best and told us children (Canada and India) to stop fighting because they had more important interests in Asia.
More important than the literal fucking assassination of Canadian citizens on Canadian soil by a foreign power, apparently. More important than supporting it's single largest trading partner in the world. More important than supporting the country that forms the other half of NORAD.

Maybe, just maybe, Brazil shouldn't keep chopping down rainforest to extract iron/oil and grow soybean/chicken/cow? Brazil needs to rapidly industrialized their economy because resource exploitation is clearly unsustainable.
Recently, Chinese companies have started to rapidly expand their Brazilian manufacturing footprint, but it's not enough.
The US embargo of Cuba has been widely condemned by every country except Israel and Ukraine. The UN General Assembly has tried time and time again to get the US to end the embargo, but to no avail.
Every single Chinese EV manufacturer wants to go make sales abroad because the price war in China makes profits barely attainable, but government policy and subsidies keep sales within the country.
