Bloomberg: Russian diesel exports continue to drop amid Ukrainian drone strikes on oil refineries

Quick Glance: Russia Strikes Chernihiv: 18 Dead, Ukraine Appeals for Air Defense

At least 18 people were killed and over 60 wounded in Chernihiv due to Russian missile strikes. Ukrainian officials emphasized that the attack could have been prevented with adequate air defense systems.

Russia launched three Iskander cruise missiles at the city, located near the Russian border and previously encircled by Russian troops.

Ukraine currently has three Patriot air defense systems but requires 26 for full coverage. Following appeals for more systems, Germany pledged to send an additional one.

A $60 billion aid package for Ukraine is stalled in the US Congress, allowing Russia to exploit ammunition and air defense shortages and gain ground in the east.

Quick Glance: Polish Authorities Detain Man Allegedly Involved in Russian Espionage for Zelenskyy Assassination Plan

A Polish citizen was detained by Polish authorities on suspicion of spying for Russia's military intelligence to potentially assassinate Ukraine's President, Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

He intended to share critical details about the Rzeszow-Jasionka airport in southeastern Poland, crucial for international military and humanitarian aid to Ukraine.

In case of a conviction, he could potentially face a sentence of up to eight years in prison.

Prosecutors emphasized the arrest resulted from a close collaboration with Ukrainian counterparts who provided vital information leading to the detainment.
