War Room S01E05 · June 2024 Recap: Russia-North Korea Pact, IDF Hostage Rescue, & US Weapons Hit Russia

Overview

The month of June in 2024 saw several major geopolitical developments around the world. For the first time since the War in Ukraine began, American-made weapons were used by the Ukrainian Armed Forces to attack targets within Russia-proper - marking the first time in history that US-weapons were used to attack a nuclear-armed power. Russia and North Korea signed a landmark mutual-defense-pact, cementing their alliance further with North Korea vowing to support Russia militarily in Ukraine. Putin offered his peace terms in Ukraine for the first time since the war began. The IDF launched a major raid in central Gaza that successfully rescued 4 hostages and reportedly killed hundreds of Palestinians. The Houthis sank a second cargo ship in the Red Sea with an anti-ship missile, and tensions rose sharply between Israel and Hezbollah.
