Benoit Paré is a former French defense ministry analyst who worked as an international monitor in eastern Ukraine from 2015 to 2022.

In his first interview with a US outlet, Paré speaks to The Grayzone's Aaron Maté about the hidden reality of the Ukraine war in the Donbas region, where the US-backed Kyiv government fought Russia-backed rebels following the 2014 Maidan coup. Russia now demands that Ukraine accept its capture of the Donbas as a condition for ending the war.

When it comes to which party is responsible for the failure to implement the Minsk accords, the 2015 peace pact that could have prevented the 2022 Russian invasion, Paré says. "I will very clear. For me the fault lies on Ukraine... by far." Paré also warns that Ukrainian ultra-nationalists, who violently resisted the Minsk accords, remain a major obstacle to peace.

Paré worked as a monitor for the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE), a predominately European group. He recounts his experience as an OSCE monitor in Ukraine in his new book, "What I saw in Ukraine: 2015-2022, Diary of an International Observer."

The Grayzone visits the family of Mohammed Zakaria al-Mutawaq, a severely malnourished toddler living in a Gaza City tent, who has become a symbol of the Israeli-imposed famine sweeping the besieged territory.

After Mohammed appeared on the front page of the New York Times and several other major papers, Israeli propagandists accused the media of misinformation, claiming his pre-existing muscular condition explained away the hunger crisis. We spoke to his mother, Hedaya, to get the full story.

We also spoke to the Al-Foul family, Gaza City residents who are also struggling to feed their young son as Israel blocks the aid they depend on.

Max Blumenthal joins Sabrina Salvati to unpack recent political shifts and media hypocrisy surrounding Gaza. He critiques top Democrats like Obama and Clinton for their newfound concern about the humanitarian crisis—calling it reputation-washing after years of silence. Blumenthal breaks down how bipartisan support for Israel is eroding, particularly among U.S. youth, exposing deep fractures in both parties. He highlights the brutal mistreatment of activist Chris Smalls by Israeli forces and the shocking silence from U.S. politicians and media who once praised him. The conversation explores the influence of Zionism, the failure of mainstream media, and the growing role of independent voices in exposing genocide.
