According to a new draft in the State Duma, the Central Bank would be able to issue the government virtually interest-free loans to cover the budget deficit - with a negligible rate of 0.15% per annum.
#Palestine / Israeli settler attack on Khirbet al-Marajem near a Palestinian village in the occupied West Bank
On Thursday night, March 14, 2025, dozens of armed Israeli settlers attacked the Palestinian community of Khirbet al-Marajem near #Duma in the occupied West Bank, Nablus Governorate.
According to resident testimonies, approximately 40 settlers, some in uniform and armed, attacked around 11:30 PM. Three homes and one car were burned. Two Palestinian infants were removed from a home during the attack. The Israeli military was present but made no arrests. No casualties were reported, but homes were severely damaged.
The village is located near a new outpost called Gal Yosef, which was established after the war on land previously occupied by the al-Rashash community. That community was entirely displaced at the beginning of the war following settler violence.

Duma's council head, Hussein Dawabsheh, noted this was "the latest in a series of criminal acts, with the support of the Israeli government and army."
The town has a painful history - in 2015, an arson attack by settlers killed three members of the Dawabsheh family, including a toddler (the Duma arson attack). Amiram Ben-Uliel was convicted of three counts of murder, two counts of attempted murder, three counts of arson and conspiring to commit a racially motivated crime as part of a "terrorist act" and sentenced to life imprisonment.
A week before this attack, Rabbi Arik Ascherman was arrested and removed from the area for 15 days after trying to prevent settlers from taking a Palestinian sheep.

A top Russian politician said he wants US to release lists of people & groups in the country that have received USAID funding.
#VyacheslavVolodin, chair of Russia's State #Duma, said..they would then "hand these lists to the #FSB," Russia's main security & intelligence agency, & the successor to the much-feared #KGB.

"Head #russia's duma defence committee, #andrey_kartapolov + nominative determinism = #Mr_Potato_Head!" 
"#Ukraine, which has rejected the idea of a Christmas truce, if she does agree to one, cannot be trusted." - head of #Russia's #Duma defence committee, #Andrey_Kartapolov.
#Kartapolov added that this was also the reason why the #Russian side would continue to conduct the so-called "special military operation"
#Russia that always lies and shifts the blame does more of the same.
Świeży #Głowacki i #Duma z #IBRIS:
"Marcin Duma: Wyborcy koalicji mają za sobą rok jazdy na zaciągniętym hamulcu. Ale radzą sobie z tym
[...]
Druga rzecz wynika z tego, że ta koalicja – a w szczególności Koalicja Obywatelska – dochowała się pewnego nowego typu wyborców. Wskazują na to w swych badaniach na przykład Przemysław Sadura i Sławomir Sierakowski, w naszych badaniach jakościowych widzimy to samo.
Jaki to typ?
To są wyznawcy. Tacy na miarę PiS. Platforma ma w tej chwili grupę wyborców tak mocno tożsamościowych, że bez żadnej przesady można nazywać ich twardym elektoratem."
Sein geliebtes #Russland bekommt empfindliche Kratzer über diese politische und militärische #Niederlage. Das sieht man auch an den #Diskussionen, die jetzt gerade in der #Duma losgehen. Glauben die #Russen wirklich, dass sie ihre #Militärstandorte in Syrien halten können ? Sind die wirklich so #naiv ?
According to reports, #Syrian Army is leaving #Duma, a city located 10 km northeast of #Damascus. Protesters claim that the #Damascus_Homs road has been cut off and is not controlled by government forces.
It is also reported that #Syrian army is leaving #Eastern_Ghouta.

Russlands Duma verabschiedet Haushalt für ein weiteres Kriegsjahr
Es ist ein Rekord: Russland steckt im kommenden Jahr 40 Prozent des Haushaltes in Militär und Sicherheit. Für Soziales gibt es weniger Geld. Die Verabschiedung ist trotzdem nur Formsache. Von Frank Aischmann.
