This is how the headquarters of Ukraine’s government now looks after this morning's Russian attack. Our whole team works in this building daily. Fortunately, no one was injured. Russian barbarism will not halt the work of Ukraine’s government.
The walls will be repaired, they are only bricks, but the lives of our people can’t be restored. In this night’s Russian attack 4 people killed and 44 injured.
What is clear is that Russia does not want peace.
I urge the world to turn outrage over Russian crimes into concrete support for Ukraine. Not for the walls of this building, but to protect our people and communities across the country.
We need stronger air defense – more systems and more ammunition – to shield our cities and our energy system as winter approaches. We need tougher sanctions that will deprive the aggressor of oil and gas revenues, the very resources funding its terror.
Only by standing strong and united can we bring an end to Russian aggression and secure peace.
I am at the site of a truly horrendous Russian missile attack.
Overnight, one of the largest American investments in Ukraine – Flex – an active member of the American Chamber of Commerce was hit by Russian missiles.
This was not only an attack on Ukraine. It was an attack on American business. Two missiles struck the factory, where 600 employees were working the night shift. Thanks to strict safety protocols, every life was saved.
Russia is not only devastating Ukraine — it is destroying and humiliating American business.
The region neighbors the EU and has been considered the safest region in Ukraine. Now definitely not so.
We call on President Trump to stand with American business and to confront Vladimir Putin’s campaign of destruction.

14 people killed, including 6 children: Russia launched a ballistic strike on a residential area of Kryvyi Rih near a children's playground.
Those who talk about peace are showing their true intentions to the world. Russia wants nothing but war.
Russia's rare earth metal reserves total approximately 16.8 million tons*
*10.4% of the world's REM reserves.
But for some reason, Ukraine should pay for Russian aggression,
not Russia. Why?
Let us understand: the United States has given us $106 billion in support against Russian aggression. And now we have to sign a deal where we give back $500 billion to continue receiving aid and deter Russian aggression?
Ukraine have already paid with everything we had, money, territory, resources, and most importantly, people. When will Russia pay for their aggression?
Russians hit the sarcophagus of the Chornobyl nuclear power plant.
This is a peace signal. Putin simply wants peace. Look, russia is for peace. Peace, isn't it clear?
"Присутні" — це більше, ніж просто проєкт.
Це ініціатива, яка об'єднує небайдужих людей з усього світу для підтримки українських героїв.
Повернення військових до нормального життя без болю і травм — це відповідальність кожного з нас.
Dnipro, an ordinary city in Ukraine, became the center of another alarming event overnight. Russia reportedly launched an intercontinental ballistic missile, likely the RS-26 "Rubezh," weighing 40-50 tons. This missile is primarily designed to carry nuclear warheads.
The attack appears to be part of a broader strategy of "power demonstration" and psychological pressure against Ukraine and its people. The use of such a weapon, even without its nuclear payload, escalates fears and highlights the ongoing risks faced by civilian populations amid the war.
The new Russian UAV ‘Gerbera’, which imitates the Shahed-136/Geran-2 to overload Ukrainian air defence, turned out to be a modified prototype of the Chinese aircraft model manufacturer Skywalker Technology Co., Ltd.
This was reported by the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine on their website "War & Sanctions". Russia is only assembling the drone at its Alabuga factory, using kits originally imported from China. Moreover, it contained electronics from 18 Western companies.
List of companies whose components were detected in the drone:
6 companies from China: Skywalker Technology Co, Ltd, Mile Hao Xiang Technology, Topotek, Xingkay Tech, UIY Inc and XLSEMI.
They also use elements from 18 international companies: Texas Instruments, National Semiconductor, ATMEL Corporation, U-blox, STMicroelectronics, NXP Semiconductors, Altera Corporation, Infineon Technologies, Ampleon, Xilinx Inc, Realtek, Pulse Electronics Corporation, Micron Technology, Analog Devices, Integrated Silicon Solution, Monolithic Power Systems, Linear Technology Corporation.

Another day, another act of terrorism by Russia. In Odesa, moments ago, a residential building was targeted, resulting in casualties and injuries. Civilian infrastructure, including homes, has been severely damaged.
I want to sincerely thank our Baltic neighbors, partners, and friends – Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia – for standing with us, and not just since the first days of the full-scale invasion, but long before that.
Your unwavering support, your care, and your commitment to Ukraine’s freedom and sovereignty are deeply felt and profoundly appreciated. You help us in ways beyond what anyone could expect, and we see it. You care for us, and we feel it. Every day you show solidarity with Ukraine, and we are immensely grateful for all you have done and continue to do for Ukrainians and our nation.
Together, we stand stronger. Thank you.
Despite heavy criticism from both russians and Ukrainians, the Tallinn Film Festival will proceed with screening the russian movie "Deaf Lovers".
Festival organizers also argue that it is not a "russian film", despite it being directed by russian filmmaker Boris Guts and featuring both russian actors in lead roles.
By ignoring the documented atrocities committed by russian soldiers against Ukrainian civilians and women in particular, the director presents a love story between a Ukrainian woman and a Russian man in Istanbul. This portrayal is seen by many as unrealistic and misleading, as it fails to reflect the true sentiments of Ukrainians towards russians in the current context.
We, Ukrainians, want to make it clear that this movie is a direct insult to Ukraine’s reality, creating a false narrative that disrespects the countless victims of the Russian invasion who were raped, tortured, and killed. This is not a time for romanticized stories; it’s a time to confront a brutal truth, because the war in Ukraine is still ongoing.
We urge all Estonians and people who care to help us highlight the inappropriateness of showing this film. Please stand with us in respecting our pain, especially as we work tirelessly to counter Russian propaganda that distorts our reality for the whole world.
