The aim of this article is to draw attention to the importance of the power of the novel and its embodiment and transmission to the whole world in the available ways. The United Nations has adopted the twenty-seventh of January as the International Day of Holocaust Remembrance, so that we do not forget! This year, the United Nations adopted the fifteenth of May to commemorate the Nakba for the first time.

Countries, even the most moderate and supportive of the Palestinian people, celebrate the memory of the Holocaust and say, "We will not forget and we will not allow the massacre and Holocaust of the Jews to be repeated." The date of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Peckenbao torture camps has become an International Day of Remembrance for the Victims of the Holocaust; The world has different ways of remembering the victims. In addition to official speeches, reports, and press releases issued by officials on Remembrance Day, you will find statues, museums, parks, and memorials commemorating the Jewish victims in Budapest, Paris, Berlin, New Orleans, Vienna, Miami, Minsk, and more. In Jerusalem, the Israelis make sure that every official visitor visits the Yad Vashem Museum, which reflects the lives of the Holocaust victims. There is a room designed in a cylindrical shape, 10 meters high, and its walls cover 600 pictures of men, women and children of the victims of the Holocaust.

Imagine with me the area of the room that the Palestine National Museum needs to cover the pictures of the martyred children, women and men who were executed in Palestine since the Nakba. Since its inception in 2023 alone, 150 martyrs have fallen. Imagine with me the showroom of the massacres carried out by the occupation through a systematic chronology. Imagine with me the pavilion of culture, traditional dress, Palestinian dresses, popular dishes, plants, herbs, olives, birds, symbols, music, dance, Dabkeh, writers, poets and writers, a huge pavilion that simulates all identity-building factors. Palestinian. Imagine with me the Nakba pavilion, which contains forms and stories of displacement and confiscation of lands, properties and keys. There we hear the voices of those who have become refugees in the records of nations so that we can comprehend the scene of displacement and asylum and the depth of the right to return. The phrase we will not forget and we will not allow the occupation to repeat the images of massacres, displacement, persecution, injustice and racism that befell the Palestinians.

Diplomatically, we must take advantage of the opportunity for the United Nations to adopt a day to commemorate the Nakba and turn it into a point of strength by inviting the countries attending the Nakba commemoration to announce their support for the Palestinian people, rejecting recurrence of displacement and injustice, ending the occupation, and devoting the people's right to self-determination.

The narrative that nations can promote and engrave in the minds of the world is what remains for history, for history depends on the historian. That is why I wonder today, what is the narrative that we as the Palestinian people want to remain for history and what are the methods we adopt to consolidate this message, how do we tell the world our story and how do we make From our narrative is a well-established truth in the eyes and minds of nations?

Netanyahu's statements and policies to change the facts on the ground will not serve peace or the security of the occupying state in the long run, with regard to Jerusalem. The famous Holocaust Museum in Washington testifies that it is Palestinian, as you find the name Palestine next to the city of Jerusalem on the map hanging on the wall of the museum with a clear reference to the Palestinianness of Jerusalem.

Palestine will participate in the commemoration of the Nakba by the General Assembly for the first time. On this occasion, the time has come to adopt and implement the idea of the Nakba Museum or the National Museum, which presents the full Palestinian narrative exactly as we want to convey it to the world. Al-Kubra, which is usually the first place visited by any expatriate to witness and learn visually, audio-visually and tactilely the novel, history, civilization, identity and culture of the country in its best form as it wants to leave an impact on the hearts and minds of everyone who visits it. It is time to work on the Palestine National Museum, to be the first address for every visitor to Palestine. After adopting this national project, it is necessary to involve all specialists, artists and creators in order to produce a deep, well-studied, artistic, scientific, national, elaborate and sustainable work in a way that befits the Palestinian narrative. It deals with the historical sequence of Palestine, in which a section is devoted to the narration of the Nakba.

Palestinian participation in the United Nations is an important opportunity, in which we hope that the Palestinian diplomatic work will focus on many of the legal points that we touched upon in a previous article at the beginning of the month, in addition to adopting the Palestinian National Museum project in a way that befits and embodies the narrative of struggle and steadfastness since the Nakba.

The Palestinian people agree that what befell them in terms of occupation and displacement in May 1948 was a major calamity that laid the foundation for the great injustice that followed. The Palestinian people abbreviated what happened to them and their land in this history with the term "Nakba". Some of the published literature on the term states that an Egyptian poet named Ahmed Muharram published his poem "The Catastrophe of Palestine" in the newspaper "Al-Balagh" in 1933, describing the horror of what is happening in Palestine with a beginning that says: "In the fever of truth and around the sanctuary - a nation is being hurt and a people is being co-opted." And he goes on with his poem to say: "Oh Palestine, make it a calamity - a turbulent era has raged for the people." As for the sheikh of Arab historians, Constantine Zureik, he published his book “The Meaning of the Nakba” in 1948, in which he commented on the Arab countries’ acceptance of the first armistice after the victory of the Zionist “gangs” and the establishment of the State of Israel on the land of Palestine, saying that the defeat of the Arabs was not just a failure in a battle, but Nakba in its full dimensions. Zureik believed that the "Nakba" was not for the Palestinians alone, but for all the Arab peoples who were unable to protect an Arab land. In the same context, the Palestinian historian Aref Al-Aref published in the year 1956 the result of his documentary work on the Palestinian tragedy in five volumes entitled “The Palestinian Nakba and Lost Paradise”, in which he described what happened to Palestine and its people with the term “Nakba” indicating that it began from the first day of the issuance of the partition decision with British complicity. And a Westerner on the one hand, and silence from the system of international legitimacy, praising the valor of the Arab soldier in the confrontation in return for the betrayal of his leaders.

Since the advent of the "Nakba" and over the past seventy-five years, "international legitimacy" has adopted dozens of resolutions in favor of the cause of the Palestinian people. However, these decisions remained a dead letter. In the same context, the United Nations General Assembly adopted, in November of last year, five pivotal resolutions, four of which relate to the Palestinian situation, and the fifth on the occupied Syrian Golan. The General Assembly included in its resolutions on Palestine a "paragraph" referring to its adoption of the commemoration of the 75th anniversary of the Palestinian Nakba. In this item, she called on the “Palestinian Rights Division in the General Secretariat” to prepare and work to commemorate the seventy-fifth anniversary of the Nakba by organizing a high-level event in the “General Assembly Hall in New York on the anniversary of the Nakba corresponding to May 15 of this year. This call, although late, carries symbolism Great, especially since the Palestinian President will address the whole world from the international platform on behalf of more than 12 million Palestinians, to remind them of the story of a people who have been subjected to injustice, and still are, before the eyes of those who rant about justice and freedom.

The Palestinian President lived through the "Nakba" and his comrades, most of whom passed away, participated in defending the national identity against the plots to liquidate it. Today, as the President and we (the Palestinian people) remember 75 years since our catastrophe, we are at the same time living a depressing scene with details summed up by the Israeli occupation machine of injustice singling out all the components of the Palestinian people in full view of everyone, accompanied by the widening of our differences and our exposure to conspiracies to liquidate our national identity. As for our hope, it remains with the people holding onto the embers. Whoever listens to a martyr's mother as she bids farewell to the pleasure of her liver with unparalleled ferocity, or a captive mother as she sends her daughter a message of "pride" over the air, realizes the value of this people.

I conclude with a whisper to the President: “Now, in the midst of the depressing scene, you are the only one left who can rectify what is happening and spread hope again.”

European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell on Saturday protested against a possible ban on financial aid to the Palestinian Authority because of content deemed hateful and anti-Semitic in Palestinian textbooks.

"The Palestinian Authority is in a critical situation and is at risk of bankruptcy if EU funding is banned. As the supreme representative (of the bloc), I will not allow that to happen," Borrell told AFP in Stockholm, where he has been participating since Friday in a meeting of European Union foreign ministers.

The EU aid amounts to 300 million euros a year.

Thus, Borrell directly opposes his Hungarian colleague, Commissioner for Neighborhood and Enlargement in the European Union, Oliver Varhelyi, who announced Friday that the Commission will fund a "second study of Palestinian textbooks" to verify its content at the request of members of the European Parliament.

The European Parliament approved the European budget for 2021 on Wednesday, but again requested that "the union's financial support to the Palestinian Authority in the field of education be subject to the condition that the contents of textbooks comply with UNESCO standards, and that all anti-Semitic references and examples that incite hatred and violence be removed."

"We have a common interest in providing the next generation with an education that supports peace and coexistence," Oliver Varhelyi wrote on Twitter.

However, Borrell replied, "The European Commission and the External Procedures Department have dealt with this issue with the Palestinian Authority. We do not need a new study or anything that would delay the disbursement of the financial assistance that the Palestinian Authority needs."

He added, "The disbursement of European aid was delayed for two years, and this led to depriving people of the necessary assistance," warning that "it is out of the question to search for excuses to ban this financial aid. I am firm in this regard."

With loud cries and tears, Umm Hadi Al-Za'anin complains about her situation after the Israeli air strikes bombed her multi-storey house in the town of Beit Hanoun, in the far north of the Gaza Strip.

The current field tension began after Israel targeted 3 leaders of the al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement, inside their homes and apartments in the Strip at dawn (Tuesday), which led to their death and a number of their family members in an operation that the Israeli army called the "protective arrow."

After about 35 hours of silence, the joint operations room of the armed Palestinian factions, to which the Islamic Jihad and Islamic Resistance Movements (Hamas) are affiliated, responded by launching a barrage of rockets at Israel in an operation called "Revenge of the Free".

Later, the Israeli army responded by targeting new leaders, Islamic Jihad military sites, houses, apartments, and agricultural lands in various areas of the Strip, while the armed factions continued to fire rockets at southern and central Israel.

As a result, 33 Palestinians have been killed so far, including 5 children, 4 women, two elderly people, and 6 leaders of the al-Quds Brigades, in exchange for the killing of an Israeli after a four-storey building in Rehovot, south of Tel Aviv, was hit by a missile.

Umm Hadi al-Za'anin, who went out to the alley of her small neighborhood minutes before her house was bombed this morning, told Xinhua, "They bombed the house... It has 100 people (persons). Where can we go, there is no shelter."

And Umm Hadi adds, while 4 elderly women from her neighbors are holding her to calm her down and ease her after her affliction, "The house is the sacrifice of my children, Jerusalem and Palestine... All money is compensated."

The scene seemed difficult among the family members, as two sisters of the grieving Hajjah contented themselves with embracing their father and wept intensely after the destruction of their homes, in which they lived their childhood and their beautiful memories, and it became a pile of rubble.

Sometimes the Israeli intelligence informs the residents of the house a short time ago to quickly evacuate it within minutes because it will be bombed by Israeli warplanes, and at other times it is targeted without prior warning in the event that wanted persons are present in it, which leads to deaths and injuries.

Umm Muhammad Bashir, while sitting on the ruins of her destroyed house in Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip, told Xinhua that her relatives and neighbors received a call to evacuate the area within a short time, in preparation for the bombing of her house.

Umm Muhammad Bashir added, with tears falling from her eyes over the demolition of the house that housed her children and grandchildren, that "reconnaissance planes fired warning missiles at her house, and then the warplanes raided it again after a short time and flattened it to the ground."

Umm Muhammad Bashir, who previously lost her home in 2014, also in an Israeli raid, continues, "The family members quickly left with the clothes they were wearing without taking out any belongings from the two-storey house, which includes 4 housing units."

Umm Muhammad, while wiping her tears with a piece of her clothes, recalls the trees she planted and grew up, but which were destroyed by the raid, saying, "This house means many beautiful memories to us, and it is the home of my children and grandchildren. I have no other shelter."

Palestinian activists circulated on social networking sites (Facebook) dozens of video clips that show the moment the Israeli planes targeted a number of apartments and residential houses in separate areas of the Strip.

A wide wave of sadness prevailed over a video clip of the elderly Abdel-Qader Taha, with a white beard and wearing a turban on his head, from the town of Beit Lahiya in the northern Gaza Strip, after he entered into a bout of crying intensely over the loss of his home in an Israeli raid.

The old man said while walking on the rubble of the house and banging his fist on his head, "Where do we go after the house (the house) was bombed?" Then one of his sons interrupted him, "In the street, where do we want to sit... It's all for the sacrifice of Palestine."

There was no official Israeli comment on the bombing of apartments and residential homes, except for what was issued by the Israeli army spokesman, Avicadi Adraee, in separate statements that warplanes and drones raided military sites and command headquarters of the Islamic Jihad Movement.

According to the head of the government media office affiliated with the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), Salama Maarouf, Israel's continuous air attacks for the fifth day in a row led to the destruction of 15 residential buildings.

Maarouf said during a press conference at Al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza today that the continuous air raids on the Strip led to the destruction of 15 residential buildings, including a total of 51 housing units, total demolition.

Maarouf added that 940 housing units were damaged, of which 49 units became unfit for habitation, while the rest of the units were partially or severely damaged, pointing out that the estimated value of initial losses as a result of the military operation is approximately $5 million.
Maarouf explained that the Ministry of Social Development in Gaza provided emergency relief and cash assistance to about 100 families who lost their homes and worked to provide rent allowance and temporary housing for these families.

As a result, the Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement, threatened to renew the Palestinian armed factions' missile strikes from the Strip towards Israeli cities, while continuing to bomb homes in Gaza.

A statement issued by the Brigades said that in light of the continued "bombing of apartments and safe houses, the Palestinian resistance will renew its missile bombardment of the occupied cities as an affirmation of the continuation of the confrontation," noting that "the resistance factions have prepared themselves for months of confrontation and we have a long breath."

On Saturday, a worker from the Gaza Strip was killed by a missile that fell in the town of Netivot, near which he was working.

And the Hebrew Channel 12 reported that the worker was seriously injured this afternoon by the fall of the missile that was fired from the Gaza Strip near Netivot, while another was injured with similar injuries.

Sources told Al-Quds.com that the worker is Abdullah Abu Jubbah (35 years old).

On Saturday, a young man was shot dead by the Israeli occupation forces for allegedly attempting to carry out a stabbing attack near the 300 checkpoint, southwest of Jenin.

According to the Hebrew website Ynet, the young man approached the place on a bicycle carrying a knife, and tried to stab one of the soldiers, but he was shot and killed. According to the claim of an Israeli military spokesman.

Later, the Red Crescent received the body of the martyr, Ahmed Muhammad Tabsir Atatreh, from the town of Ya`bad.

The head of the village council of Toura, Tariq Qabaa, told Al-Quds.com, quoting eyewitnesses, that the martyr was shot while crossing the checkpoint on a bicycle on his way back to his town, Ya`bad, and that the shooting was rapid and sudden without justification.

He mentioned that the martyr used to pass through the area to reach the land owned by his family behind the apartheid wall, where he works permanently.

Today, Saturday, large crowds in Nablus governorate mourned the bodies of the two martyrs, Saed Misheh (32 years old) and Wassim Al-Araj (19 years old), to their final resting place in Balata refugee camp, east of the city.

The funeral procession started in front of the Rafidia Governmental Hospital, and then to the Abd al-Rahman Mosque in the camp, where the mourners performed the funeral prayer for them, and from there to their families' homes in the camp to take a last farewell look before their burial in the martyrs' cemetery.

The mourners chanted slogans condemning the occupation's crimes against our people.

Mesha and Al-Araj were killed this morning after the Israeli occupation forces shot them during their raid into Balata camp and besieged a house. During the raid, three civilians were wounded by live bullets, and dozens suffocated with tear gas.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has warned his supporters that they could pay a "heavy price" if his secular rival comes to power in elections scheduled for this weekend.

Erdogan is trying to rally his supporters ahead of Sunday's elections that put to the test his two-decade rule.

Opinion polls show that his secular rival, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, has a slight lead over him and is close to passing the 50 percent threshold needed to avoid a second round on May 28.

What contributed to strengthening the positions of the opposition was the withdrawal of candidate Muharrem Ince, who represents a third party, on Thursday, as it could have weakened Kilicdaroglu's chances of inflicting the first electoral defeat on the Turkish president.

Unusually, Erdogan avoided predicting the outcome of the most competitive elections in Turkey in modern times, when he answered a question from a journalist on television whether he would win the elections by saying, "The ballot boxes will decide Sunday."

Erdogan, 69, also acknowledged that he was having difficulty winning over the young voter base who did not remember the corruption and economic chaos that prevailed under Turkey's secular governments in the 1990s.

"There is a generation in our country that has not experienced any of the problems we have experienced," he declared in another media appearance this week.

"Don't forget... you may pay a heavy price if we lose," he said Friday at a rally in Istanbul to his supporters waving flags.

And he considered that Western governments use the opposition to impose their vision on Turkish society, adding, "O West, my nation is the one who decides."

His message appeared to resonate with religious voters such as Sanour Hanak. "Erdogan is our leader, and we are his soldiers," said the veiled 48-year-old.

But Erdogan's candid comments indicate a growing realization that he may not be able to play his trump cards.

The Turkish president gradually lost the support of key segments of the people who gathered around him during the more prosperous decade that followed his rise to power in 2003.

Some opinion polls show that the segment of young people who have never known a president other than Erdogan in their lives supports his main rival.
And the Kurds, who had previously trusted his efforts to end their cultural oppression, now support Kilicdaroglu's campaign.

And the economic crisis - the worst in Turkey in a quarter of a century, which is mostly attributed to Erdogan's unorthodox economic views - has prompted other groups to lose confidence in his government.

This left the president with little choice but to try to mobilize his hardline nationalist and religious supporters to turn out and vote in large numbers.

He appealed to his supporters to "crush the ballot boxes", accusing the West of funding his rivals in an effort to undermine Turkey's sovereignty.

"We find it difficult to explain our values to this new generation. Our young people are making comparisons not with the old Turkey, but with countries that have much better conditions than here," Erdogan said.

"The inflammatory rhetoric is designed to mobilize Erdogan's base to get out and vote, but also to cast doubt on the official results if things don't go the president's way," said Hamish Kenner, an analyst at consulting firm Verisk Maple Croft.
It seems that Kilicdaroglu, 74, is sensing signs of discontent prevailing in Turkish society

This former civil servant has tried to wage a comprehensive campaign that ignores Erdogan's personal attacks and focuses on a pledge to re-strengthen the economic system and civil liberties.

He has also surrounded himself with economists trusted by Western investors and some of Erdogan's former allies who could help attract nationalist votes.

The election brings together two leaders with contradictory visions and heightened security concerns.

Kilicdaroglu's party told AFP that the opposition leader wore a bulletproof vest at two rallies on Friday because there was a real threat to his life.

The candidate delivered an uncharacteristically terse speech during his evening stop in Ankara, where thousands waited for him in the pouring rain.

"Are you ready to bring democracy to this country? To bring peace to this country? I promise you, I am ready too," he said.

Kilicdaroglu asserts that his immediate goal after the elections will be to launch a process aimed at stripping the office of president of many of the powers that Erdogan concentrated in his hands after the failed coup in 2016.

The bloody coup attempt was a watershed moment in Turkey's history, to which Erdogan responded with a campaign that led to thousands of military personnel being imprisoned for life and tens of thousands of Turks stripped of their government jobs.

Kilicdaroglu wants to return power to parliament after Erdogan seized it through a controversial constitutional referendum.
This will require that the opposition win the legislative elections that are held to coincide with the presidential elections on Sunday.

However, opinion polls showed that Erdogan's right-wing alliance is ahead of the opposition bloc in the legislative elections.
But the opposition may win a majority if it gets the support of a new left-wing coalition that represents the Kurdish vote.

On Saturday, the Palestinian resistance continued firing rockets from the Gaza Strip towards the Israeli settlements and cities.

The resistance targeted the cities of Ashkelon, Ashdod and Netivot, and the towns and settlements of Sderot, Eshkol and the western Negev.

Al-Hilal Saudi club president Fahd bin Nafel refused to comment on the possibility of bringing in Argentine world champion Lionel Messi to strengthen his ranks next season, considering that the group has "more important than one player".

A source familiar with the negotiations revealed to AFP on Tuesday that the best player in the world seven times will play with Al-Hilal under an "extraordinary and huge" deal: "Messi's deal has been completed. He will play in Saudi Arabia next season," without indicating the club he will play for.

He added, "The contract is exceptional. It is huge. We are in the process of finalizing some small details." While the player's father and agent, Jorge, insisted that his 35-year-old son had not decided his destination yet, "there is no agreement with any club for the next year."

Despite several reports linking Messi and Al-Hilal club, sources with the record-holder in the number of times the Saudi league won told AFP that the capital team was not in direct contact with his French team, Paris Saint-Germain, whose contract with the "mosquito" expires at the end of June. June.

And after Al-Hilal was crowned the Saudi King’s Cup title on Friday, at the expense of Al-Wahda, by a penalty shootout 7-6 (1-1), Bin Nafel answered questions from journalists about the possibility of bringing Messi in, saying, “Do not ask me about Messi.

I will not tell you. If anything comes out of the media center, you'll get it."

In the analytical studio after the match, Ben Nafel said from the field, to the sound of the fans' shouts, "Messi, Messi": "The group is more important to me than a player. Any star who comes to our club should know that we are a big club. We aim to add and improve. If you focus on someone, you lose." the group".

Al-Hilal partially compensated for its decline in the domestic league, which it achieved in the past three seasons, by winning the King's Cup title, noting that it reached the final of the Club World Cup, where it lost to Real Madrid of Spain, and the final of the AFC Champions League finally when it lost its title to Urawa Red Diamonds of Japan.

When asked about the possibility of completing the league with reserve players, Bin Nafel replied, "This is a matter for the coach alone."

Meloni said at the time, during a joint press conference with Zelensky, "I wanted (to come to Kiev) to reaffirm Italy's full support for Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression, and to reaffirm that Italy has no intention of weakening" this support.

Today, Saturday, the government media office in the Gaza Strip confirmed that the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza is in its fifth consecutive day, during which 33 people were killed, 30% of whom were women and children, and 147 civilians, 60% of whom were women and children, were wounded, and 147 citizens, 60% of whom were women and children, were injured. .

Six members of the US Congress submitted a draft resolution that would force the US administration to implement the Palestinian Genocide Prevention Act.

The draft resolution, which was adopted by Representatives: Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, Betty McCollum, Jamal Bowman, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Cory Bush, calls on the US administration to recognize the Nakba, to describe the establishment of the State of Israel.

The legislation includes advancing a clause requiring the US administration to implement the “Elie Wiesel” law to prevent genocide and atrocities of 2018, to provide support and protection for civil society, and to “work to monitor, document, prevent and respond to atrocities.”

The Elie Wiesel Act requires the State Department to provide specialized training for foreign service personnel “who will be assigned to a country that has experienced or is at risk of committing mass atrocities,” including war crimes, crimes against humanity, and genocide, as well as submit an annual report to Congress on efforts to prevent atrocities in such countries.

The resolution also accuses Israeli officials of the "growing threat of a second Nakba" and affirms the right of return for Palestinian refugees.

The draft resolution called for restrictions on the use of military aid to Israel, an end to US diplomatic support for the destruction of Palestinian homes, or the forcible resettlement of Palestinians, and for the US to "refrain from building any diplomatic facility on land confiscated by Israel."

Oscar-winning American actor Jamie Foxx has been discharged from hospital and is in the process of recovering from “medical complications,” his daughter and his agent announced Friday.

And the 55-year-old star was transferred last month to a hospital in the state of Georgia in the southern United States, where he was filming a movie for Netflix.

Since then, no details have been revealed about the actor's medical condition, which has led some to speculate that his condition is deteriorating.

But his daughter, Corinne Fox, made sure to dispel the rumors in an Instagram post on Friday.

She expressed her dissatisfaction with the media speculation, saying, "My father was discharged from the hospital for weeks and he is recovering. He was even playing pickleball yesterday," which is a popular sport in the United States that combines elements of badminton, table tennis and tennis.

Jamie Foxx's agent confirmed the information to AFP, without providing further details.

During his career, Jamie Foxx won, in particular, an Oscar in 2004 for his remarkable performance of the character of singer Ray Charles, the legend of soul music, in the biopic "Ray".

Also, he was nominated for an Oscar for his role in the movie “Collector” in the same year, and he also imprinted minds in the recent period through his performance as a slave who yearns for freedom in the Western movie “Django Unchained” by Quentin Tarantino.

On April 12, Corinne Fox wrote on Instagram that her father had "suffered medical complications," but "fortunately, with immediate intervention and good care, he is making a full recovery."

The United States is making efforts to support attempts to document the damages suffered by Ukraine as a result of the Russian invasion, hoping to use it after the war ends to seek compensation, according to a letter seen by AFP on Friday.

The United Nations General Assembly, in a non-binding vote in November, endorsed the idea of creating an "international record" documenting the damage across Ukraine from the war waged by Russia since February 2022.

Earlier this year, Maria Bejinovic Burić, Secretary General of the Council of Europe, suggested that the Strasbourg-based council take over the registry.

The 46-nation council, established in 1949, seeks to support democracy, human rights and the rule of law. Its members plan to hold a summit meeting Tuesday in Reykjavik to discuss the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

In a message addressed to the meeting, US Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas Greenfield expressed Washington's readiness to provide funding for the emerging registry, and to be an "associate member" of it.

"As President Biden has stated, the United States is committed to holding Russia accountable for its war of aggression against Ukraine," Thomas Greenfield wrote in a letter to Boric, seen by AFP.

"Creating a registry documenting the damage caused by Russia's brutal war is a critical step in this effort," she added.
The World Bank estimated in March that Ukraine needed $411 billion for reconstruction.

And the United States promised in March to support another international effort to create a special court to try the crime of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Before traveling to Reykjavik to represent her country at a meeting of the Council of Europe, Thomas Greenfield discussed by phone with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba efforts to extend the work of an agreement to export Ukrainian grain brokered by Turkey and the United Nations, according to a spokesman for her.

Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar confirmed in a statement on Friday that the completion of the understanding to extend the grain export agreement, which expires next Thursday, is imminent.
