Initial reports suggested that today’s explosions were far less severe than a similar attack in October. But in the wake of last month’s failed mutiny by the Wagner mercenary group, the latest assault was cited by prominent Russian bloggers as more evidence of the failures of Russia’s military command.

It would be their first meeting since Netanyahu reassumed the role in December. The invitation came on the eve of a visit to Washington by Israel’s president, which had long been seen as a slight to Netanyahu. It also reversed Biden’s decision in March to avoid meeting the prime minister “in the near term” after criticizing Netanyahu for pushing to overhaul his country’s judiciary.
