Summary

A Russian missile strike hit a hotel in Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine, where U.S., U.K., and Ukrainian humanitarian volunteers were staying. They survived, but four others were killed, and over 30 were injured.

Zelensky condemned the attack and urged continued pressure on Russia. Meanwhile, Trump is pushing for peace talks, pausing U.S. military aid and intelligence sharing after a dispute with Zelensky.

Critics fear Russia now has leverage in negotiations, as Europe struggles to fill the gap left by reduced American support.

    I’m sure this is somehow Biden’s fault. If not his fault, then it’s Zelensky’s. Or immigrants. Or DEI. Or Wokeness. Or trans athletes. Or Hillary’s. Or…

    I don’t even know what to say. I asked my dad what the fuck was so bad about his life? He hasn’t worked for 30 years. He’s collected every government benefit they offer. He even said, when arguing about the stock market, the market has been unprecedentedly rising for 20+ years. What the fuck are you mad about? You have everything except maybe extreme wealth and never leave the fucking house.

        I’d have to go through my texts, the argument was lengthy, but I think he basically said he’s been lucky none of us were killed by illegal immigrants. Literally, the last thing on a long list of things that has the potential to kill me.

          i have an in-law with texan heritage (no longer located there) who is strongly concerned about the change in texan culture over the last, oh, 60 years. I’m still working to inform them that this is due to corporatism and not the mexicans that were there before their family

    I was on a Viber call with my cousin when this missile was flying towards my hometown, where she lives now. We were both crying as she was getting the notifications saying how many seconds are left until it hits.

      NewsWeek has always been a fascist rag.

      Edit: the only reason it is well known is that propagandists paid to have it placed in every hotel room in the USA. Same as the Gideon Bible.

      It’s accurate, it’s just not informative enough.

      Trump is pushing for peace, as in: Do everything Putin wants and you can have peace! Simple!

        Including, apparently, overthrowing Zelenskyy and installing a puppet.

        EU needs to just suck it up and add Ukraine however necessary. Russia can’t fight them all.

      Hospitals, schools, residential areas, journalists, aid workers… Russia has been doing this since the beginning of the war.

      Den Haag had already sent agents to Ukraine to determine if war crimes happened within the first year. The international court has a warrant for the arrest of Putin.

    I hope some of those US citizens includes the people Trump sent to Ukraine to chat with Zelensky’s opposition.

    There used to be a time when Republicans would lose their shit when US citizens were murdered by Russia.

    Now they’ll applaud it

      russia also switched tactics in the 80s to primarly use propaganda"to destroy from within", they also saw trump in the 80s as a useful tool to further thier agenda.
