Ukrainian drones struck a major gas processing plant in southern Russia on Sunday, sparking a fire. It follows an explosive White House meeting on Friday between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and President Trump that reportedly descended into a shouting match where Trump pressured Zelensky to accept Russia’s terms for ending the war. Trump also refused Ukraine’s request for long-range Tomahawk missiles. Trump reportedly told Zelensky, “if [Putin] wants it, he will destroy you.” Speaking to reporters, Trump referred to Ukraine’s Donbas region as “cut up,” urging Ukraine to “leave it the way it is right now,” which would essentially mean ceding territory to Russia. It comes as Trump and Putin are set to meet in Budapest in the coming weeks.
