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.

There used to be a time when Republicans would lose their shit when US citizens were murdered by Russia.
Now they’ll applaud it
As long as Annoying Orange says it’s okay, they’ll keep applauding
russia also switched tactics in the 80s to primarly use propaganda"to destroy from within", they also saw trump in the 80s as a useful tool to further thier agenda.
Trump will say it’s Zelensky’s fault because he wouldn’t agree to his terms
Trump is probably happy these particular people were killed. They were probably the same sort of journalists he’s banning from press conferences.
he will also just ‘fake it’, as he does many other things, so long as he can advance
hisputin’s agenda.
“Check out was at 10AM. They shouldn’t have been there, stupid humanitarians.” - Trump, maybe
Or say that Zelensky attacked the hotel in a false flag in order to pressure for support
While I can see that being used, I don’t think this was intentional or big enough.
Zelenskyy doesn’t need to stage any false flags.
No I agree, I thought it was Russia that would say Zelensky did a false flag
putin likes to use other people to do it for them, so he doesnt get the blame entirely. these are GANG/mafia methods MO.
Yes, and I’m very scared how many people mistake his attempts at appeasement as “peace”. What can be done? People are actually buying that Zelensky doesn’t “want peace”.
One is a leader defending their country against an invasion. The other is a leader threatening several other countries with tariffs and the slight threat of invasion. It’s clear who wants peace, those people are just in a cult whose capacity for logical leaps will never stop until the whole cult is history.
You’re right. I just wish there was a way to change that narrative. I’m worried that too many people buy into it. I’m worried that too many people are buying into the whole “I just want bloodshed to stop” sayings.
— Trump, probably
-Trump, definitely*
I mean he didn’t say die but in his speech he already said about the economy/tariff situation that, and I quote, “there’ll be a little disturbance, but we’re ok with that”. immediately made me think of this quote.
A bit of artistic licensing
“Some of you may die, and that’s exactly how I want it.”
Russia is trying Israel’s moves. Hospitals and journalist families next!
Hospitals, schools, residential areas, journalists, aid workers… Russia has been doing this since the beginning of the war.
Den Haag had already sent agents to Ukraine to determine if war crimes happened within the first year. The international court has a warrant for the arrest of Putin.
Judging by history this only increases US support
well you actually stupid as a hell. US tourists in the hotel. Tourists… Really? If they want live just stay in their US.
From the article:
volunteers from a humanitarian organization
Not exactly tourists I would say
I don’t even know what to say. I asked my dad what the fuck was so bad about his life? He hasn’t worked for 30 years. He’s collected every government benefit they offer. 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.
Lead poisoning
Well, what did he answer?
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.
i have an in-law with texan heritage (no longer located there) who is strongly concerned about the change in texan culture over the last, oh, 60 years. I’m still working to inform them that this is due to corporatism and not the mexicans that were there before their family
What we need is a Pearl harbour. Something so outrageous that trump will be forced to act against Russia.
Trump’s Pearl Harbor would be if someone bombed a Trump Tower affecting only the Trump sign.
Our right wing populist Nigel farage had a milkshake chucked at him once. Photos of him all over the newspapers covered in pink gunk. Just sayin.
I don’t know, if in my country the government started to fire public employees just because a billionaire is on a ketamine overdose, there will be rioting in the street and the parliament will be set on fire. Instead all I’m seeing is “leopards ate my face” news pieces where they interview some fired federal employee that voted for Trump
Trump will blame someone else rather than his best friend Putin
he also binges on alcohol and cocaine, someone mentioned he would be anesthetized way before oding on ketamine.
I don’t think you can really OD on ketamine. Not so you would stop breathing etc. He does have the bloated, unhealthy face of an addict but he’s a billionaire, he’ll probably have a long life.
Boy would Iove to see Elon in a k-hole
No what we need is Americans to finally get a spine and topple their dictator. The world and US’ future can’t wait for year long courts that will likely result in nothing actionable anyway.
Which year long courts?
His name is Trump. Russia completed sidelined America’s military.
Lol how do you think the aftermath of Pearl Harbour would have gone if someone like Trump was in power instead of FDR? He is the commander in chief. Nothing will happen.
It could potentially stop Americans from sleepwalking into the decline of their country, perhaps. Maybe even generate the political will to get rid of Trump. But none of that is even close to happening. The easy road off this path hasn’t been available since last November. The path out of this mess now necessary leads through suffering.
trump is obssessed with hitler, so he would probably join hitler in his war effort, also because alot of nazi elements came from USA segregationist/racist policies too.
If pearl harbour 2.0 happened, eg North Korea attacked the US and the american people knew that Putin was behind it… I think they would rise up against trump if he didn’t take action. Thing is, trumps nothing if not an opportunist, he’d know that. So he’d do at least the minimum to placate the people. He’d have no choice.
The problem is Trump doesn’t care about soldiers, Americans, or people other than himself. Maybe Congress could be pressured to act, though.
He cares about looking bad, or weak
Then why does he keep doing both?
Because in his mind, that’s not what’s happening. He uses different assessment criteria, and it’s pretty much what would be the court of public opinion in one of those trashy poverty porn shows like Jeremy Kyle. Maybe the US equivalent is judge Judy.
“SUckers and losers, whats in it for them”, " i dont like people that are capture or killed"- TRUMP said this.

trump is a gutless traitor, a demented rapist, and more incompetent than a bag of shit.
Will no one rid me of this demented rapist traitor?
Dont forget convicted felon.
From an outsider its extremely baffling that one president resigned from office after they found out he was fucking his secretary but this guys laundry list of actual real harm done is so long it would be like santas list from a cartoon christmas movie, and yet…
Voted him in when everyone was fully aware of everything.I just cannot comprehend the USA
It’s all about media consumption. That’s the key.
Propaganda works, that’s why evil billionaires buy it. That’s why every democracy is under attack. It’s easy to do now.
Media literacy - understanding how words and symbols create our world - is so far off from being as understood as, say, American football.
Putin testing his lapdog Trump if he will bite back to his owner.
I’m sure this is somehow Biden’s fault. If not his fault, then it’s Zelensky’s. Or immigrants. Or DEI. Or Wokeness. Or trans athletes. Or Hillary’s. Or…
Trump helping to get Americans killed. He just doesn’t care. Must have caught that from his wife.
I don’t think Krasnov has ever cared about anyone but himself…
Trump is pushing for peace talks
What the fuck is this reporting?!
It’s accurate, it’s just not informative enough.
Trump is pushing for peace, as in: Do everything Putin wants and you can have peace! Simple!
Including, apparently, overthrowing Zelenskyy and installing a puppet.
EU needs to just suck it up and add Ukraine however necessary. Russia can’t fight them all.
NewsWeek has always been a fascist rag.
Edit: the only reason it is well known is that propagandists paid to have it placed in every hotel room in the USA. Same as the Gideon Bible.
I was on a Viber call with my cousin when this missile was flying towards my hometown, where she lives now. We were both crying as she was getting the notifications saying how many seconds are left until it hits.
Comparing our reaction to this to the sinking of the Lusitania will be interesting.
One of three possibilities.
- Orange Krasnov & Tulsi
- Pissed off Ukrainian
- The fucking Muscovites got lucky.
You forgot:
- Meteorite mistaken for missile
I hope some of those US citizens includes the people Trump sent to Ukraine to chat with Zelensky’s opposition.
