Ukraine Accused of Drone Attack on Russian Oil Depot

As the conflict escalates, US aid to Ukraine remains deadlocked and the EU plans to increase ammunition production.

  • Ukraine has been accused by Russia of orchestrating a drone attack on a Russian oil depot in Klintsy, causing a massive fire. This is the second such attack in as many days and is part of Ukraine's retaliation for Moscow's strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure.
  • US aid to Ukraine remains stalled in Congress, with hard-right House Republicans tying the aid to negotiations for US immigration changes.
  • Russian lawmakers have prepared a bill allowing for the confiscation of money and property from people who spread “deliberately false information” about the country’s armed forces.
  • The European Union plans to drastically increase ammunition production this year in response to Ukraine’s pleas for support in its war against Russia.
  • Landmines have been placed once again around the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Ukraine, which is currently under Russian control.
