The war in Ukraine entered its 891st day with continuing violence and political developments. In the eastern Donetsk region, Russian shelling killed one person and injured two, while Ukrainian forces reported hitting military targets inside Russia. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy praised his forces for their actions. In other regions, like Vinnytsia and Kherson, attacks damaged infrastructure and residential homes.
Diplomatically, Senegal summoned the Ukrainian ambassador over a video supporting attacks against Russian allies and urged for neutrality. Kremlin critic Vladimir Kara-Murza, recently released from prison, spoke out against Putin’s war in Ukraine. Ukraine’s human rights commissioner called for investigations into a disturbing image of a Ukrainian POW killed by Russian forces, comparing the actions to those of the Nazis.
Economically, the US ratings agency S&P downgraded Ukraine’s credit rating to “selective default” due to a missed bond payment. Despite the turmoil, Ukraine celebrated its first gold medal at the Paris Olympics in women’s sabre team fencing, with Zelenskyy declaring the victory as a symbol of Ukrainian resilience and strength. As the conflict continues, the people of Ukraine remain resilient in the face of ongoing violence and economic challenges.
