And he hit them hard last night,\u201d Trump told reporters on Tuesday afternoon in the Oval Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe kept his word on that. It was \u2014 it\u2019s a lot, you know, one week. We\u2019ll take anything, because it\u2019s really, really cold over there, but it was on Sunday, and he went from Sunday to Sunday.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking at a joint news conference with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte in Kyiv Tuesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyi said: \u201cLast night, Russia broke its promise, that means either Russia now believes a week has fewer than four days instead of seven, or it is genuinely betting only on war and simply waited for the coldest days of this winter.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ukraine\u2019s Ambassador to the U.S. Olha Stefanishyna said the embassy on Tuesday handed over to the U.S. Department of State detailed reports of the attacks that Russia launched on Ukraine after a supposed halt in energy strikes.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reports included detailed information on all the attacks that Russia carried out after it reportedly agreed to pause the strikes. The notes detailed last night\u2019s attack, Stefanishyna told a news conference on the sidelines of the Ukrainian Week in Washington on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The embassy prepared the reports in cooperation with Ukraine\u2019s Armed Forces and Energy Ministry. Stefanishyna added that the information her team had collected will influence the talks as it raises doubts over Russia\u2019s commitment to peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She said she hopes the U.S. will approach Russia with more pressure and less illusions, Ukraine\u2019s public broadcaster Suspilne said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Russian spy spacecraft have intercepted Europe\u2019s key satellites, officials believe, according to FT<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>European security officials believe two Russian space vehicles have intercepted the communications of at least a dozen key satellites over the continent, the Financial Times said on Wednesday. The paragraphs below are quoted from the article.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Officials believe that the likely interceptions, which have not previously been reported, risk not only compromising sensitive information transmitted by the satellites but could also allow Moscow to manipulate their trajectories or even crash them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For several years, military and civilian space authorities in the west have been tracking the activities of Luch-1 and Luch-2 \u2014 two Russian objects that have carried out repeated suspicious manoeuvres in orbit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to orbital data and ground-based telescopic observations, they have lingered nearby for weeks at a time, particularly over the past three years. Since its launch in 2023, Luch-2 has approached 17 European satellites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The European satellites approached by Luch 1 and 2 are primarily used for civilian purposes, such as satellite television, but also carry sensitive government and some military communications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Intelligence gathered by Luch 1 and 2 could also help Russia co-ordinate less overt attacks on western interests. Monitoring other satellites can reveal who is using them and where \u2014 information that could later be exploited for targeted ground-based jamming or hacking operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other news, Govsatcom \u2014 the EU program which pools existing communications capacities from satellites owned by the 27 EU governments \u2014 launched last week, EU Commissioner for Defense and Space Andrius Kubilius told a conference in Brussels on Tuesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><strong>Russian attacks on Zaporizhzhia kill three, injure one other<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Russia carried out a total of 790 airstrikes and attacks with drones, artillery and multiple launch rocket systems on 32 towns and villages in Zaporizhzhia region on Tuesday, head of the regional military administration Ivan Fedorov said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two 18-year-olds were killed in a Russian drone strike on Zaporizhzhia on Tuesday. At least 12 others, including four children were wounded. A 58-year-old man was killed by an artillery strike in the village of Preobrazhenka.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Russia launched 11 airstrikes at the region, used 466 drones of various types, of which most were FPV drones, fired from multiple launch rocket system six times and carried out 307 artillery strikes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The authorities have received 75 reports of damaged homes, cars and critical infrastructure sites.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trump says Putin \u201ckept his word\u201d on not attacking Ukraine for a week.
