"Russian Missile Strikes in Ukraine: Devastating Losses and Failed Security Measures"

A Russian missile strike on a village in northeastern Ukraine during a memorial service for a fallen soldier has killed 51 people, according to Ukrainian officials. President Zelenskiy denounced the attack as "Russian terror" and stated that it was a deliberate strike on civilians. The incident marks one of the deadliest attacks in the Kharkiv region since Russia's invasion 19 months ago. Rescue workers are searching through the rubble for survivors and victims, while Zelenskiy seeks more air defenses at a summit in Spain. Moscow has not yet commented on the events.

Zelenskiy calls on EU to lift "unacceptable" farm goods restrictions in Ukraine

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has urged the European Union (EU) to lift the "unacceptable and clearly non-European" ban on Ukrainian grain imports to five central European countries by September 15. The EU had allowed Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Romania, and Slovakia to ban domestic sales of Ukrainian agricultural products, citing harm to their farming sectors. Zelenskiy emphasized that any extension of the restrictions beyond the deadline would be unacceptable and called on the EU to fulfill its obligations. Poland has already stated that it will not lift the ban on September 15, even if the EU does not agree on its extension.

"South Korean President Yoon visits Ukraine for talks with Zelenskiy"

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol visited Ukraine to meet with President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, following his attendance at a NATO summit and visits to Lithuania and Poland. Yoon expressed solidarity with Ukraine and explored ways to support its fight against Russia's invasion. While South Korea has faced pressure to provide weapons, Yoon's administration has focused on humanitarian and financial aid. Yoon's visit suggests a stamp of approval from Kyiv for the aid that Seoul has sent so far, and South Korea may be doing more to support Ukraine behind the scenes. Additionally, South Korea plans to support Ukraine's reconstruction in areas such as transportation, energy, and industry.

US accused of inciting religious tensions in Ukraine by Russia

Russia's Foreign Ministry has accused the US of being behind the pressure that Ukrainian authorities have been exerting on the Russian-aligned wing of the Orthodox Church in Kyiv. The Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC) defied an eviction order last week from the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra monastery in the capital. On Saturday, a top Ukrainian cleric from the church was sentenced to house arrest. The ministry said that the capture of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra by Kyiv's current authorities is an illegitimate act from a legal point of view and immoral from a spiritual point of view.
