Ukraine now targets Russian Azov freighters after months of attacking their refineries

If in recent months Ukraine has directed its swarms of drones against refineries, oil export ports, and other energy infrastructures inside Russia, now the attacks are focusing on the Sea of Azov.

Real Madrid has a lenient schedule that will touch Mourinho's heart

Real Madrid has a lenient schedule that will touch Mourinho’s heart

Real Madrid could describe the draw for their 57th participation in the Champions League as favorable. The Whites have avoided several favorites, and only the match against Arsenal and perhaps against Inter Milan seems like those that, a priori, Jose Mourinho’s team will find more difficult or even start at a disadvantage. They should not have the same problems as last season to get into the top 8 and advance directly to the round of 16. Interestingly, Mourinho’s Benfica sent Álvaro Arbeloa’s team to the round of 32. And both teams ended up facing each other.

El Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera, the unexpected micro-border

El Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera, the unexpected micro-border

Spain has a certain tendency towards atypical borders. The municipality of Llívia or the border by turns — six months French, six Spanish — of the Island of the Pheasants, between Irún and Hendaye are two good examples. In this line, Spanish geography has the curious honor of hosting the shortest border in the world. It is barely 85 meters of sand that separate Spain and Morocco on African land due to the Spanish possession of the Peñón de Vélez de la Gomera.
