Ukraine strikes back: Russian attacks on Kyiv and new US missiles!

The dramatic developments on 1,031. Day of the Russia Ukraine War!

On Saturday, December 21st, the events in Ukraine and Russia overflow themselves! The location is tense and the fronts continue to harden. Here are the latest shock messages!

In a devastating attack, Ukraine has targeted the city of Rylsk in the Russian Course region! Targeted blows were carried out with US rockets that cost six people. President Joe Biden recently gave the green light so that Ukraine can also use these powerful weapons deep in the Russian hinterland. A clear expression of determination!

Russian retaliation and tragic losses

But the answer from Moscow was not long in coming! Hours earlier, a Russian air raid hit the Ukrainian capital Kiev and demanded at least one fatality. A building that houses the messages of Albania, Argentina, Montenegro, Northern Macedonia, Palestine and Portugal was badly damaged. Russia justified the attack as a retaliation for a Ukrainian blow to Rostow with western rockets. The spiral of violence is constantly turning!

The Ukrainian authorities reported on Friday of another tragic loss: 503 soldiers who have fallen were handed over from the competitive regions of Donetsk, Luhansk and Zaporizhia as well as from Russian corpse show. Most of these heroes come from Donetsk, where the fights romp the most violently. A dark picture of the reality of war!

economic turbulence and international reactions

The economic situation in Russia remains tense. The central bank left the key interest rate at a record high of 21 percent, despite the high inflation, which is heated by massive war efforts and serious shortage of work. Entrepreneurs criticize the effects of the high credit costs on the economy!

On the international stage, the Ukraine International Monetary Fund approved $ 1.1 billion in household support on Friday. Since March 2023, the total amount has been an impressive $ 9.8 billion. A bright spot in dark times!

The reactions from Europe are also not to be overlooked. Ursula von der Leyen, the President of the European Commission, condemned the Russian attack on Kiev sharply and spoke of a "disgusting attack". She emphasized that Putin's disregard for international law has reached new heights. A clear appeal to the international community!

Hungary Prime Minister Viktor Orban called for a strategic realignment of European leaders in relation to Ukraine. In an interview with Hungarian state television, he spoke out for a Christmas ceasefire and the exchange of up to 1,000 prisoners of war. Orban, who has often blocked EU measures to support Ukraine, now shows itself as an intermediary!

and also Germany's chancellor Olaf Scholz announced that it would speak to Vladimir Putin again. After a first contact in the last month, which met with criticism in Ukraine, Scholz wants to make it clear that Putin has to end his aggression and withdraw his troops. A risky undertaking in times of war!

The situation remains tense and the developments overturned. The world looks banned at Ukraine and Russia - the next few days could be crucial!
