November 2024 Recap: Israeli Ceasefire, North Koreans deployed to Kursk

Approximately 12,000 North Korean troops arrived in Russia’s Kursk province to go into battle with the Ukrainians. After authorization from the US and UK, Ukraine fired their first ATACMS and Storm Shadow missiles into Russia-proper. Russia deployed their first nuclear-capable, but conventionally armed medium-range hypersonic missile, in Ukraine so far. Benjamin Netanyahu fired his defense minister, Yoav Gallant, and replaced him with the former Foreign Minister, Israel Katz. The ICC also formally issued arrest warrants for both Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gollant, making Netanyahu the 3rd acting head-of-state to ever be issued an arrest warrant by the ICC. Israel and Hezbollah also finally agreed to a ceasefire, after more with both sides accusing the other of violating it almost immediately. HTS, a Sunni-Islamist militia with links to al-Qaeda, launched a major surprise offensive against the Bashar al-Assad regime - the largest military offensive in Syria since 2019.
