Russian attacks on Ukraine kill 2 people a day after deadly shopping mall drone strike
14 Sept 09:53Key points summarised by AI
Russian drone and missile strikes killed at least two people overnight in Ukraine, including one in Kyiv's railway infrastructure and another in the Zaporizhzhia region.
These attacks came just a day after a devastating Russian drone strike on a shopping center in Kryvyi Rih, which resulted in 16 deaths and 130 injuries.
Russian forces have intensified ballistic missile attacks on Kyiv, exploiting Ukraine's critical shortage of U.S.-made Patriot air defense interceptors.
Ukraine has concurrently shifted its strategy, conducting long-range drone strikes on Russian oil facilities and logistics centers, causing fuel shortages and unsettling the Russian public.
Macron condemns those who 'sought to bring down the Republic' after rioting mars nationwide protests
Yesterday 12:56Key points summarised by AI
President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
