Summary
Kyiv endured one of its deadliest Russian attacks yet, with at least 30 killed, as Ukraine intensifies strikes on Russian oil refineries—disrupting a third of Russia’s refining capacity. Despite this, Putin dismisses the damage as “not critical,” blaming Ukraine’s attacks for distracting from battlefield setbacks. Fuel shortages are crippling ordinary Russians, forcing rationing and long lines, directly contradicting his claim that daily life remains unaffected. Russia is now producing lower-grade fuel and eyeing imports to cope. Putin rejects ceasefire talks, insisting peace requires Ukraine to abandon NATO and surrender territory, while dismissing Ukraine’s proposal to halt strikes into each other’s territory. Meanwhile, Zelenskyy pleads with allies for more missile defense, accusing Russia of resorting to terror by targeting civilian infrastructure—highlighting how the war’s brutal toll continues to escalate on both sides.
