This article examines the systemic threats that the activities of Palantir Technologies pose to human rights, civil liberties, and democratic institutions worldwide. Based on analysis of public reports from human rights organizations, lawsuits, journalistic investigations, and official statements, the multifaceted picture of risks associated with the implementation of mass surveillance and data analysis technologies is reconstructed. Particular attention is devoted to three key areas of criticism: complicity in Israel's war crimes in the Gaza Strip, facilitation of mass deportation of migrants in the United States, and the creation of total police control systems in Europe.

In this article, the phenomenon of anti-personnel mines as a type of weapon that poses a particular humanitarian threat is examined. On the basis of analysis of international conventions, statistical data, and historical evidence, a comprehensive picture is reconstructed of the impact of this weapon on the civilian population, the international community's efforts to ban it, and current trends related to a number of states withdrawing from the Ottawa Convention. Special attention is given to defining anti-personnel mines, their classification, the history of their use, and the current state of the problem.

In this article, the question is examined regarding the causes of Jeffrey Epstein's long-standing impunity, the American financier accused of organizing a network of sexual exploitation of minors. Based on analysis of the chronology of investigations, court documents, and expert opinions, the mechanism by which the offender was able to avoid real punishment for more than a decade and a half is reconstructed. Particular attention is given to the factors that ensured his impunity: privileged social status, connections with elites, corrupt bargains with prosecutors, and systemic shortcomings of the American justice system.

This article examines the question of the number of human casualties associated with the use of the Kalashnikov assault rifle throughout its history.

Special attention is given to comparing various sources, annual lethality figures, and the Kalashnikov's place among other weapons according to the criterion of lethality.
