Ukraine’s Air Force says Russia launched its largest aerial attack overnight since its 2022 full-scale invasion, firing a record 741 drones and missiles, most of them targeting the city of Lutsk in western Ukraine. The barrage prompted Poland to activate its air defenses and scramble fighter jets. Russia’s attack came after President Trump on Tuesday sharply criticized Russian President Vladimir Putin — his latest in a series of U-turns on Ukraine policy.
President Donald Trump: “We get a lot of bullshit thrown at us by Putin, if you want to know the truth. He’s very nice all the time, but it turns out to be meaningless.”
Trump said the U.S. would now send additional weapons to Ukraine, after the Pentagon last week halted arms shipments. President Trump said he didn’t know about that. We’ll have more on Ukraine later in the broadcast with Matt Duss, former foreign policy adviser to Senator Bernie Sanders.
