EUROPOL HEADQUARTERS, THE HAGUE — “Please knock. Do not enter,” said the sign on the door of Europe’s heavily-secured law enforcement headquarters in the Netherlands. Inside, detectives were staring at their computers, examining a video of a newborn girl being molested. A group of international detectives was trying to identify details — a toy, a clothing label, a sound — that would allow them to rescue the girl and arrest those who sexually abused her, recorded it and then shared it on the internet.Even a tiny hint could help track down the country where the baby girl was assaulted, allowing the case to be transferred to the right police authority for further investigation. Such details matter when police are trying to tackle crimes carried out behind closed doors but disseminated online across the world.Finding and stopping child sex offenders is gruesome and frustrating most of the time — yet hugely rewarding sometimes — police officers part of the international task force a...Time for Ukraine to work with the Russian opposition

Maxim Mironov is professor of finance at the IE Business School in Madrid.Ever since the war began, Ukraine has relied on the West as its main ally in the fight against Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion. However, after almost two years of conflict, it is becoming clearer that Ukraine and the West have different goals.Ukraine aspires to recover all its territories currently occupied by Russia. Meanwhile, the West prefers to maintain the current situation, gradually weakening Russia and avoiding major direct confrontation. Ultimately, it is a question of how long Ukraine’s resources will last and enable it to continue fighting.When the war broke out, Ukraine’s leaders immediately adopted the mindset that it was at war not with Putin, but with all of Russia and its people. This approach was initially justified, as it mobilized both Ukrainian society and Western public opinion. However, at this stage in the war, it might be reasonable to start viewing part of...Program in Lynn helping Afghan immigrants and refugees receives national attention with recognition by Prince Harry, Meghan Markle’s foundation

The Afghan Women’s Workshop is based in Lynn. With its recognition came thousands of dollars in grant money. “It just fits exactly, smoothly in what we were doing,” said Natasha Soolkin of the New American Association of Massachusetts.The Afghan Women’s Workshop was created by the Office of Refugees and Immigrants and the New American Association of Massachusetts. Both organizations helped families resettle after the Taliban took over Afghanistan in 2021. Through their work, the New American Association helped men find jobs. But they found that the women often felt left behind. “Spouses and children were kind of left behind and they were stuck in these small apartments without any friends, without anybody they know,” Soolkin said. “We started bringing them to the center for this pur...Holiday Helping: Jadiann Thompson Baked Brie Bites
