Iran marked the 47th anniversary of its 1979 Islamic Revolution on February 11 with nationwide rallies that state media called historic, drawing what officials claimed were tens of millions. Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei praised the turnout as a show of defiance against foreign enemies, while rallies featured burned effigies symbolizing Israel and past conflicts. The events unfolded against ongoing tensions from protests sparked by economic collapse in late December 2025, which rights groups say led to over 30,000 deaths in a brutal security response, though opposition claims many attendees were coerced.

Key Takeaway

Crowds filled Tehran's streets chanting regime slogans, but recent deadly crackdowns lingered in the background, drawing stark contrasts from observers on the ground.

The U.S. has set June as the target for Ukraine and Russia to agree on peace, Zelenskyy announced after UAE-hosted talks in Abu Dhabi that delivered a swap of 314 prisoners—the first in five months—and restarted U.S.-Russia military dialogues. Zelenskyy highlighted Ukrainian intelligence on Russia's 'Dmitriev package,' a proposed $12 trillion economic deal with the U.S. that draws widespread skepticism for exceeding Russia's entire GDP many times over. While no breakthroughs occurred on core issues like Donbas status or the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, upcoming Miami talks signal continued U.S. pressure, as Zelenskyy calls for strong security guarantees amid ongoing Russian strikes.

Key Takeaway

In a closed briefing, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy shared a surprising U.S. push: a June deadline to end the war, amid fresh prisoner swaps but unresolved disputes over land and security.

On Thursday, Jackson Hinkle's X post labeling Taiwan a 'fake country' under China drew sharp rebuttals and support, spotlighting Taiwan's limited diplomatic recognition by only 12 UN members and the Holy See amid the unresolved Chinese Civil War.

Key Takeaway

Influencer Jackson Hinkle declared Taiwan a 'fake country' that belongs to China, igniting a heated online clash viewed over 65,000 times. The post amplified longstanding tensions between China's unification claims and Taiwan's 76 years of independent self-governance.

The satirical image, first posted on Threads in early January, resurfaced widely after philosopher Bernardo Kastrup shared it, mixing laughs with boasts about U.S. military might and reminders of real Viking history in Canada.

The 19-year-old Mrázková and 22-year-old Mrázek, training in Italy and ranked 18th worldwide, earned 72.09 points in the rhythm dance at the Milano Ice Skating Arena, placing them provisionally 10th. Their routine mixes 'One Two by AI (of 90s style Bon Jovi)' with Thunderstruck, a choice allowed by International Skating Union rules since last year to ease copyright issues and boost creativity. While some demand disqualification over clashing with ice dance's artistic soul, others see it as a fair way to access music without legal hassles—the pair debuted the program this season amid similar past debates.

Key Takeaway

Kateřina Mrázková and Daniel Mrázek glided onto the ice blending AI-generated rock with AC/DC's Thunderstruck, drawing cheers from the crowd but sharp online criticism for using artificial tunes in a human art form.
