The situation in Ukraine continues to escalate as President Zelensky reports the largest aerial attack in the country's history, with 728 drones and 13 cruise or ballistic missiles striking various cities.
This comes amidst growing criticism of Russian President Vladimir Putin from US President Donald Trump, who accused him of continuously rejecting peace efforts. The US initially suspended military aid to Ukraine, but following the latest developments, Trump is considering reversing the decision and potentially sending 10 more Patriot missiles to bolster Ukraine's defenses against Russian aerial threats. Additionally, Trump is reviewing a sanctions bill that could impose 500% tariffs on countries trading with Russia, which could have significant economic implications. Despite the ongoing conflict and the failure of previous ceasefire agreements, the Kremlin remains defiant, with spokesman Dmitry Peskov downplaying Trump's comments and highlighting the continued offensive actions in eastern Ukraine. The conflict, which began with a full-scale Russian invasion in February 2022, shows no immediate signs of resolution.
