Four people were killed when a Russian missile struck a hotel in Volodymyr Zelensky's home town but some American humanitarian volunteers survived the attack.

Summary

A Russian missile strike hit a hotel in Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine, where U.S., U.K., and Ukrainian humanitarian volunteers were staying. They survived, but four others were killed, and over 30 were injured.

Zelensky condemned the attack and urged continued pressure on Russia. Meanwhile, Trump is pushing for peace talks, pausing U.S. military aid and intelligence sharing after a dispute with Zelensky.

Critics fear Russia now has leverage in negotiations, as Europe struggles to fill the gap left by reduced American support.

He even said, when arguing about the stock market, the market has been unprecedentedly rising for 20+ years. What the fuck are you mad about? You have everything except maybe extreme wealth and never leave the fucking house.

        I’d have to go through my texts, the argument was lengthy, but I think he basically said he’s been lucky none of us were killed by illegal immigrants. Literally, the last thing on a long list of things that has the potential to kill me.
