Trump’s deadline is here, but Putin is trying so hard to take Ukraine that he’s shelling his own people

The city of Kherson, a key strategic location in southern Ukraine, is once again under a brutal and ongoing attack by Russian forces. The latest escalation is focused on the Korabel district, an island suburb of the city, where Ukraine is evacuating hundreds of civilians after a major Russian strike destroyed the only bridge connecting it to the mainland. This comes at the end of Trump’s supposed hard deadline.

This attack has raised concerns that Russia may be preparing a new attempt to retake the city, which it lost in a humiliating defeat in 2022. The attack on the bridge has cut off the Korabel district, leaving the remaining residents without basic necessities like gas, electricity, stores, or public transportation.
