What news have we missed this month?
These are turbulent times, as I think we can all agree. Turbulence, unfortunately, has a tendency to make seemingly less important things go unnoticed by most people. Has there been anything this month that you haven't seen get coverage that you think people ought to know about?
Almost everything in the Ukraine: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2018/12/05/russia-and-ukraine-are-clashing-at-sea-what-do-we-know-about-the-danger-of-escalation/
I guess this might be geographical, because the situation with the Sea of Azov has had a fair bit of coverage in the UK. Perhaps because it's slightly more immediate to Europe than to those thousands of kilometres and an ocean away. The split between the Ukrainian and Russian orthodox church also got some coverage.
Japan has announced it was going to get really back into whaling
We didn't miss that.
