Ukraine admits Russia has entered key region of Dnipropetrovsk
KYIV — Ukrainian forces have acknowledged that Russia's military has crossed into the eastern industrial region of Dnipropetrovsk and is trying to establish a foothold."This is the first attack of such a large scale in Dnipropetrovsk region," Viktor Trehubov, of the Dnipro Operational-Strategic Group of Troops told the BBC, although he made clear their advance had been stopped.Russia has claimed throughout the summer that it has entered the area, as its forces try to push deeper into Ukrainian territory from the Donetsk region.In early June, Russian officials said an offensive had begun in Dnipropetrovsk, although the latest Ukrainian reports suggest they have barely breached the regional border.Any Russian advance into Dnipropetrovsk would be a blow to Ukrainian morale, as...

Ukraine knocks out 17% of Russia's oil refining capacity
KYIV — Ukraine has significantly intensified its attacks against Russia's energy sector over the past few weeks, inflicting significant losses on the primary source of financing of Moscow’s war machine.Kyiv’s recent strikes on 10 Russian oil refineries have reportedly disrupted at least 17% of all of Russia’s refining capacity, an equivalent of 1.1 million barrels per day.Ukraine’s targeted campaign is focused on refineries, oil depots and military-industrial sites.

Reform UK chief Nigel Farage says party will mass deport migrants if it wins election
LONDON — Nigel Farage, the leader of Britain's hard-right Reform UK party, said on Tuesday that if he wins the next general election, the country will leave the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) and immediately detain and deport anyone who arrives in the country illegally.Farage laid out his plans to tackle illegal immigration following a significant rise in the number of migrants who arrive by boat across the English Channel, and weeks of protests over the government's use of hotels to house asylum-seekers.Despite holding just four of the 650 seats in the House of Commons, Farage's party has gained momentum by seizing on public frustration over successive governments' inability to bring down the number of migrants coming by boat.National polls have suggested...

Polish president vetoes bill to extend support for Ukraine's Starlink
WARSAW — Poland's President Karol Nawrocki vetoed a bill on Monday to extend the existing support package for Ukraine, saying Warsaw will not be able to continue paying for Kyiv's access to the Starlink network.That means Polish funding to keep Ukraine connected to the internet via Starlink will stop on 1 October, potentially cutting off frontline troops from access to real-time information.Poland has supported Ukraine's internet access via Starlink since the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion in early 2022, and the loss of this lifeline service is expected to be a massive blow to Ukrainian troops."Presidential vetoes are cutting blindly. Karol Nawrocki turns off the Internet in Ukraine with his decision, because de facto it means his decision on the law on...

French PM fights for survival as rivals refuse to support confidence vote
PARIS — French opposition parties have said they will not back Prime Minister François Bayrou after he called a vote of confidence on 8 September on plans for deep budget cuts. Bayrou, who has led a minority government since last December, called the vote on Monday, warning France was facing a "worrying and therefore decisive moment". "Yes, it's risky, but it's even riskier not to do anything", he said, in the face of France's mounting budget deficit. From the National Rally on the right to the Socialists, Greens and France Unbowed on the left, opposition parties lined up to say they would vote against him. Bayrou called the vote two days before protests have been called across France to "block everything". The Bloquons tout...

Hungary and Slovakia in spat with Ukraine over bombed Druzhba oil pipeline
BUDAPEST — Ukrainian attacks on the Druzhba oil pipeline have blocked oil imports into Hungary and Slovakia for days and provoked an ongoing war of words between Kyiv, Budapest, and Bratislava. Ukraine attacked oil facilities on Russian territory with drones and rockets. The pipeline delivers Russian oil through Ukraine and Belarus to Central Europe, where Hungary and Slovakia still import large amounts. On Sunday, Ukraine's president suggested that the attacks on the pipeline might be connected to Hungary's veto on Ukraine's EU accession. "We always supported the friendship between Ukraine and Hungary. And now the existence of the friendship depends on what Hungary's position is," Zelenskyy said when asked whether the attacks on the Druzhba...
