Russia advances in Ukraine at fastest monthly pace since start of war, analysts say

MOSCOW (Reuters) -Russian forces are advancing in Ukraine at the fastest rate since the early days of the 2022 invasion, taking an area half the size of Greater London over the past month, analysts and war bloggers say. The war is entering what some Russian and Western officials say could be its most dangerous phase after Moscow's forces made some of their biggest territorial gains and the United States allowed Kyiv to strike back with U.S. missiles. "Russia has set new weekly and monthly records for the size of the occupied territory in Ukraine," independent Russian news group Agentstvo said in a report.

In Singapore, a rustic island haven faces an uncertain future

STORY: A 10-minute ferry ride from eastern Singapore takes you to the small, quiet island of Pulau Ubin.This little haven offers a rare glimpse of rural life in a country better known for its modern malls and skyscrapers. Pulau Ubin is a rural spot full of biodiversity.About 4,000 people once lived there, but after the main quarry closed in 1970, most moved to the city as it quickly modernized.Chu Yok Choon is currently one of just 30 people still living on the 4-square-mile island.While he enjoys the quiet life, the 79-year-old feels the community has little future."I think there will be fewer and fewer people on this island. To be honest, the old people have died off one by one and the young ones are not suited for this kind of environment. It is up to the government to preserve it. The people here are ageing and dying off and the young people will not come back, they won’t be back.”Besides mail delays and the hassle of making trips to the city for groceries and gadgets, ferry rides can also be inconvenient for island residents.One 69-year-old, Lim Csye See, runs a bicycle shop on Pulau Ubin, but moved to the mainland 30 years ago due to quarry closures and his child’s school commute.“Very few people would stay on the island because transportation is too inconvenient. If you have a son who needs to go to school in the mornings, he might not be able to get a ferry. Then you have to pay for the whole boat.”For many, Pulau Ubin serves as a relaxing getaway. Offering hikes through lush greenery and lakes in old quarries, bike rides on car-free roads, and seafood dining by the water’s edge.Every June for the last nine years, Singapore officials have held 'Ubin Day' to celebrate the island’s heritage and nature. In 2001, the government said it was safe from changes until required for development.But no one is now allowed to move there from the mainland, leaving the population to dwindle. With the island's youngest residents in their 50s, some wonder what future there is now for Pulau Ubin.
