У вогні та руїнах: наслідки підступних російських ударів по Києву, Дніпру, Одесі й не тільки
Українські міста знову опинилися під прицілом нещадних ворожих обстрілів. Жорстоких атак зазнали містечка в прикордонних і прифронтових регіонах: Конотоп і Балаклія постраждали від масованої атаки дронів, Прилуки — від балістичного удару. Російська авіація тероризувала Краматорськ і Дружківку, Херсонщина жила під цілодобовим дроновим терором. Важким був тиждень для жителів Дніпровщини й Одещини через регулярні ворожі обстріли вдень і вночі. Ніч проти 24 травня у Києві та області росіяни перетворили на справжнє випробування — комбінована атака ракетами й БпЛА принесла багато руйнувань, вогню й забрала життя мирних людей.

Kyiv in mourning, new attacks on Odesa and Kharkiv: weekly summary after a three‑day lull
After the partial three‑day lull ended, Russia launched over 3,170 attack drones, more than 1,300 guided aerial bombs, and 74 missiles of various types against Ukraine during the week. The strikes killed 52 people and injured 346, including 22 children.

Russian fakes and narratives about Chornobyl: from the disaster to the present
Four decades ago, the criminal negligence of the Soviet leadership led to the largest technological disaster in human history. Both during the USSR and today, the Kremlin exploits the tragedy at the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant as a tool of manipulation. Its mouthpieces attempt to absolve the system of responsibility for the accident: they blame the plant’s personnel, pose as “hostages of the regime and the KGB” alongside other affected countries, and openly lie about well‑known facts, labeling them as “Chornobyl myths.”

Four years since the terrorist attack at the Kramatorsk railway station
In memory of the victims — and in the name of justice — we recall how Ukrainian and international documentarians, along with human rights organizations, disproved Russian disinformation about the missile strike on the Kramatorsk railway station on April 8, 2022. On that day, a Russian missile armed with cluster munitions turned a crowded train station into a battlefield, cutting short the lives of people who were trying to flee the war.

Daytime mass attacks, deadly strikes, and new safety measures on the railway: what the beginning of April will be remembered for in Ukraine
Russia is increasingly choosing daytime hours for its massive strikes, expanding the zone of destruction across Ukraine. The beginning of April will be remembered for devastating attacks on Lutsk, Poltava, and Zhytomyr region; Kharkiv endured several consecutive days under fire, and there were strikes on Odesa, Sumy, and Chernihiv. Over the weekend, the Russian army carried out a deadly attack on a market in Nikopol, and the day before, drones and missiles targeted Kyiv region. Every day, Donetsk and Sumy regions face bombings and drone raids. Drones and artillery continue to hit Kherson, while the enemy scatters antipersonnel mines throughout the city. Among the targets of Russian attacks this week were: a veterinary clinic with animals inside, food warehouses, a Nova Poshta terminal, and the only maternity hospital in Donetsk region. Due to constant aerial threats, railway routes experienced delays and passenger evacuations from trains.
