An international investigation has revealed that the body of Ukrainian journalist Viktoria Roshchyna, who died in Russian captivity, was returned to Ukraine missing several internal organs, potentially to conceal the cause of death.

According to a joint investigation by Forbidden Stories and 13 international media outlets, Roshchyna’s body was transferred to Ukraine on February 14, 2025, as part of a repatriation operation involving the return of 757 fallen Ukrainians. Russian documents marked the body, listed as number 757, as an “unidentified male” with a reference note: “СПАС.”

Someone asked about the news, out of Punchbowl, that Amazon would soon add a line item at checkout that detailed the “import costs” of purchased goods. If Amazon did this it would join other retailers like Temu that are letting customers know why the cost of buying products from it has more than doubled in the past few weeks.

This short saga shows how the Trump administration plans to deal with the chaos that it has created: By attempting to bully companies into denying the reality that his tariffs are making it more expensive (or potentially impossible) to buy millions of different products. The strategy here—to the extent there is one at all—is to pressure companies into eating tariff costs, pretend that none of this is happening, or to add opacity into the process by having prices shoot up without retailers breaking out what portion of them is from Trump’s tariffs.

Tariffs? What tariffs? Nothing to see here. Move along.

KEY POINTS

• Amazon said Tuesday it considered displaying import charges on items sold via its site for ultra-discount items, but that the plan “was never approved and not going to happen.”
• The White House lashed out at Amazon after a report said the company would “soon” begin displaying import charges alongside some items.
• The move would have affected items sold on Haul, Amazon’s answer to Chinese discount retailer Temu, which offers apparel, home goods and other items priced at $20 or less.

"On 1 April, all 25 bakeries supported by the World Food Programme (WFP) across the Gaza Strip shut down due to the lack of wheat flour and fuel.

Today, families are using the last remaining bags of wheat flour they received from the WFP before the aid suspension to bake their bread in primitive, handmade ovens using firewood."
