Zelensky: Over 20 Killed in “Savage” Russian Strike
President Zelensky reported a brutal Russian airstrike in Yarova, Donetsk, resulting in over 20 civilian deaths at a location where pensions were being distributed, prompting a global response. In response, President Trump is considering additional sanctions against Russia and its trading partners due to Moscow’s intensified war efforts. However, Russia dismisses sanctions as ineffective and maintains its commitment to its goals, with President Putin stating a peace deal is “practically impossible.” The central challenges to peace negotiations are the division of territory and the future of Ukrainian security, both of which face significant legal and political obstacles.
