Drone boats blow up Russian oil tankers & missile blitz leaves 600,000 without power
Ukraine: The Latest
Weekend mass Russian air strikes
Dominic reports on heavy Russian missile and drone strikes and major power outages in Kyiv region.
Day 1,376.
Today, after a fresh round of talks between the Ukrainian and American delegations in Miami, we examine a new investigation exposing the Trump administration’s profit motives behind the emerging proposals. We then assess the resignation of Andriy Yermak, formerly Zelensky’s right-hand man, and the unexpected intervention of former Commander-in-Chief Valerii Zaluzhnyi – viewed as preparing for a presidential run after the war. Afterwards, we analyse Kyiv’s decision to strike the Russian shadow fleet off the coast of Senegal, and how Europe – and France in particular – is positioning itself for this next, volatile phase.
