Ukraine strikes refinery 1500km inside Russia after ceasefire violations

Day 1,533.


Today, as Russia refused to follow Kyiv’s proposed ceasefire,
killing at least 26 civilians, Kyiv responded by hitting targets
1500 km into Russia’s territory. Meanwhile, the corruption
scandal uncovered in Ukraine last summer continues to send
shockwaves across the country, possibly touching Zelensky
himself. Ukraine’s Chief negotiator, Rustem Umerov, himself under
investigation in the probe, arrives in Miami for the first talks
since the beginning of the war against Iran. Finally, we dive
into Russia’s latest online disinformation campaign.
