Reports have been circulating for months which suggest Russian forces may be seeking to expand their influence beyond Ukraine's borders, with some insiders fearing that the nation will mount a full-scale invasion of a NATO allied country within the calendar year.

Bed bugs are parasitic insects that feed on blood typically at night. They get that blood from humans or animals. You might not see any during the day because of their being nocturnal. They can hide well like in a small crack or inside the seam of a mattress. An adult bed bug can range from 3/16 to 1/4 inch long. It's pretty repulsive.
