21.11.2024 โ‡ข The Day Death and Warrants Met Russian Missiles
โŒจJohn Prescott's death at 86 dominated morning coverage, with Tony Blair leading tributes to his former deputy. The narrative shifted as Ukraine claimed Russia launched an intercontinental ballistic missile at Dnipro - a claim that drew skepticism by mid-morning, until Putin confirmed it was an experimental ballistic missile test.

The International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu, Gallant, and Hamas commander Deif over alleged war crimes, prompting Britain to confirm it would enforce the warrant - a position Starmer endorsed. Netanyahu dismissed the warrant as antisemitic.

The escalation pattern continued from previous days, with Russia threatening to strike US bases in Poland in response to Ukraine's use of Storm Shadow missiles. Putin's announcement about the missile test marked the first official acknowledgment of new strategic weapons deployment in Ukraine.
