‘We are not scared,’ says top EU diplomat after Russian strike on passenger train - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Europe needs to show it will not be “scared off” in supporting Ukraine, the EU’s chief diplomat said, after a Russian drone hit a passenger train on the country’s border with Poland shortly after a convoy of high-level diplomats and former leaders had passed through. The earlier train, which was carrying the former UK prime minister Boris Johnson and the former CIA chief David Petraeus and running ahead of schedule, may have been the target of the Russian drone strike, Ukrainian Railways has sai
Bayeux tapestrymania has gripped Britain. But what does it say about our own age of war and upheaval? | Charlotte Higgins (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The tapestry is drawing crowds to the British Museum – and each person who sees it will draw a different meaning from this epic, vivid artwork I have seen the Bayeux tapestry four times since childhood, and loved it on each viewing, for the sheer miracle of its survival and the glorious vividness of its detail. But the fourth time, earlier this week, was different – how could it not be? Tapestrymania has taken hold in London. The textile has been proffered as a diplomatic symbol, the occasion fo
When does rage help us, and when does it harm us? Ukraine has taught me the answers | Charlotte Higgins (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Fury at Russia’s death and destruction has fuelled art, action and resistance. But eventually, rage’s fire is all-consuming Twice, I have heard Ukrainians perform Verdi’s Requiem.

He is an artist who, in 2019, jointly won the Turner prize; and one of his works is, for my money, among the most striking on show at this yearâs Venice Biennale.

The ear witness: Turner-winner Lawrence Abu Hamdan and his ‘sound evidence’ exposés of human rights abuses - AOL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Lawrence Abu Hamdan has a double identity. He is an artist who, in 2019, jointly won the Turner prize; and one of his works is, for my money, among the most striking on show at this year’s Venice Biennale. But he is also the director of a young NGO, founded in 2023, called Earshot, which investigates human rights abuses using sound evidence. In less euphemistic language, that means, on occasion, investigating horrific killings. He and his team might analyse the direction and position of bullets
