Day 1,660.

Today, after Russia strikes a train near the Ukrainian border
with Poland, narrowly missing top European officials including
Boris Johnson, we consider whether the attack was deliberate. The
officials were attending a major gathering in Kyiv seeking to
forge a new way forward – we’ll bring you the highlights. Then we
try to get to the bottom of what some are calling ‘Ukraine’s
biggest victory this year’ – the reported counterattack around
Lyman liberating almost 200 square kilometers of territory. If
confirmed, it seemingly exposed lying Russian commanders,
Ukrainian formidable operational security, and expectations in
the ground war over the coming months.
