From “Legitimate Military Objectives under the current jus in bello” by Yoram Dienstein:

#Ukraine solitude is devastating too. It’s the other front of the world war against terrorism & tyranny. Led by brave President #Zelensky , Ukrainians, like #Israel , fight #Iran . We should be at their side. Congress should deliver, now, necessary aid. Not to do so is a huge fault.

🛡️ This year #Estonia 🇪🇪 has significantly improved its defence capability with the Blue Spear anti-ship missile systems. The range of this coastal #defence solution is 2⃣9⃣0⃣ km, covering almost the entire Baltic Sea.

Russia is leading a #brutal and unprovoked war. Ukraine needs help. If you look away, it will eventually become costlier.
