Russia accused British Council of conducting reconnaissance for UK intelligence services
Russian security services uncovered the activities of the UK governmental organisation British Council, which was conducting reconnaissance in Kherson Oblast for Ukraine’s interests.
Officially, the British Council co-operates with Kyiv in the field of education, culture and art, but its activities are believed to be just a disguise for the work of the British security services.
The British Council is allegedly using Ukrainian refugees living in the UK, persuading them to obtain intelligence information through relatives and close friends living in Kherson Oblast. The people involved in the scheme collect coordinates and help guide missiles.

The savage bloodshed, murder, revenge, power struggles and moral dilemmas told in the famous tragedy by the English playwright were written over 400 years ago — but on stage in Yemen today, the play holds power.
Yemen, the poorest country on the Arabian peninsula, has been at war since 2014 when Iran-backed Houthi rebels seized the capital Sanaa, prompting a Saudi-led coalition to intervene the following year.

La meilleure manière d’apprendre l’anglais
"En tant que bébés, notre première exposition au langage se fait par l'écoute, mais en tant qu'apprenants adultes, les idées préconçues et les angoisses peuvent parfois entraver la compréhension. Certains apprenants sont pris de panique lorsqu'ils sont exposés à un discours naturel, et cela est souvent déclenché par l'idée erronée que nous devons saisir chaque mot, alors qu'en fait nous devrions nous concentrer sur ce que nous comprenons. Si nous voulons améliorer notre écoute, il est essentiel de vaincre cette peur des mots et des sons inconnus.
Alors, comment se fixer des objectifs réalisables en écoutant l'anglais à une vitesse normale, même à des niveaux inférieurs ?
Si vous êtes un parfait débutant, vous pouvez commencer par regarder une série en anglais sous-titrée dans votre propre langue, ou par écouter la radio en arrière-plan pendant que vous préparez le dîner. Peu importe que vous suiviez les sous-titres plus que l'audio, ou que vous dansiez simplement sur les chansons à la radio - l'exposition aux sons en anglais à vitesse naturelle, et des fonctions telles que le discours continu est un bon point de départ. Votre objectif réalisable dans ce cas consiste simplement à vous habituer aux sons que vous entendez, vous trouver dans la pièce avec eux et ne pas avoir des sueurs froides d'un traumatisme passé en classe d'anglais !"

L'application Anki permet de créer des flashcards afin d'apprendre du vocabulaire et des phrases complètes (que vous choisissez) - C'est la répétition qui fait la mémorisation. Il vaut mieux faire un peu plusieurs fois plutôt que beaucoup et s'arrêter. A utiliser quotidiennement, pour entraîner la mémoire: https://apps.ankiweb.net/
Utilisez Deepl ou Larousse pour traduire les éléments essentiels que vous ne comprenez pas, puis placez ces mots / phrases dans une flashcard Anki pour les mémoriser.

Quand vous apprenez, soyez précis et mémorisez les mots et phrases exactes.
Quand vous parlez, n'ayez pas peur de faire des erreurs, c'est tout à fait normal. Le tout est de parvenir à comprendre et à se faire comprendre. Pas de pression, un étranger parle en faisant des erreurs et cela fait évoluer les langues.
