Russia attacks Ukraine’s energy supplies as US cuts its access to satellite images

Russia attacked Ukrainian energy facilities with dozens of missiles and drones during the night, officials said, hobbling the country's ability to deliver heat and light to its citizens and to power weapons factories vital to its defences. The overnight barrage — which also pounded residences and wounded at least 10 people — came days after the US suspended military aid and intelligence to Ukraine to pressure it into accepting a peace deal being pushed by the Trump administration. Without US intelligence, Ukraine's ability to strike inside Russia and defend itself from bombardment is significantly diminished. The US government said it halted Ukrainian access to unclassified satellite images that had been used to help it fight back against Russia. Firefighters put out t...

European leaders pledge to stand by Ukraine after confrontational Oval Office meeting with Trump

European leaders pledged to stand by Ukraine in the wake of the contentious Oval Office meeting between US President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, with their statements in support of their neighbor on the continent ensuring a deepening transatlantic rift. European leaders already were shaken by Vance's speech to the Munich Security Conference two weeks ago in which he lectured them about the state of their democracy. As prime ministers and presidents across the continent scrambled to respond, they have held a series of emergency summits to discuss security. Another major summit is scheduled for Sunday in London, hosted by UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer. More than a dozen European and EU leaders, including Zelenskyy, will gath...

Zelenskyy bristled at his berating by Trump and Vance. After three years of war, what did they expect?

On a horizon where drones and airstrikes have killed 47 civilians in Ukraine in the past 10 days, superlatives rained: the most consequential moment in the war since Russia's invasion; the ugliest personality clash — between a 48-year-old comedian turned wartime leader and a septuagenarian billionaire turned US president; the most significant turning point in European history since 1989 or even 1945. After Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskyy found himself berated for lack of gratitude on live television by US President Donald Trump and his Vice President JD Vance , Ukraine seemed immediately unsure whether to be furious at his treatment – after their collective survival of three years of Russian bombardment and savagery – at the hands of wealthy American elites, or to seek remedy i...

Inside the 139 minutes that upended the US-Ukraine alliance

White House chefs were at work in the West Wing on Friday (local time) laying out plates of rosemary chicken, celery root puree and collard greens when the sound of raised voices began floating over from the Oval Office. Inside, a remarkable scene was unfolding. President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance had begun berating their guest, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, in a hitherto unseen public implosion of a key global relationship. For supporters of Ukraine, the moment was disastrous: Everything that could have gone wrong in a meeting between two headstrong leaders did, in the span of 10 minutes. Inside the 139 minutes that upended the US-Ukraine alliance. (CNN) Yet for all the shock, it was not an unforeseen outcome. Indeed, in the lead up ...

Inside the 48 hours that Trump turned on Zelenskyy

As the long-fraught relationship between US President Donald Trump and his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelenskyy ripped apart on Wednesday, a question that lingered among allies of both men was whether the fight would dash hopes for a US-brokered peace — or, potentially, help it along. Firing off an angry message on his social media platform, Trump labelled Zelenskyy a "dictator without elections", blaming him for strong-arming the US into spending hundreds of billions of dollars "to go into a War that couldn't be won". It turned into a daylong series of taunts, which Trump amplified during a speech on Wednesday night (Thursday AEDT) in Miami.

Mitch McConnell won’t seek reelection in 2026, ending long tenure as Republican power broker

Republican Senator Mitch McConnell is announcing he won't seek reelection next year, ending a decades-long tenure as a power broker who championed conservative causes but ultimately ceded ground to the fierce GOP populism of US President Donald Trump. McConnell, the longest-serving Senate party leader in US history, chose his 83rd birthday to share his decision not to run for another term in Kentucky and to retire when his current term ends. He informed The Associated Press of his decision before he was set to address colleagues in a speech on the Senate floor on Thursday (Friday AEDT). His announcement begins the epilogue of a storied career as a master strategist, one in which he helped forge a conservative Supreme Court and steered the Senate through tax cuts, presidential i...
