Deadly Grenade Attack at Ukraine's Zakarpattya Village Council Meeting Leaves One Dead and Dozens Injured

EU leaders reached a breakthrough to open membership talks with Ukraine and Moldova, but Hungary blocked a crucial 50-billion-euro aid package for Ukraine. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban warned he could still halt the process and stall the aid package to win budget concessions from Brussels. Despite Hungary's opposition, the EU approved negotiations with Ukraine and imposed sanctions on Russia. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy hailed it as a victory, while Kyiv appealed for the 50 billion euros. The EU also granted EU candidate status to Georgia and expressed support for Bosnia-Herzegovina's bid. The Kremlin criticized the EU's decision, and Orban abstained from the vote but maintained his opposition.
