Jan 20 (Reuters) - Russians in St Petersburg and Moscow have been laying flowers at improvised memorials to the victims of a Russian missile attack on a nine-storey apartment block in the Ukrainian city of Dnipro. On Friday evening, dozens of bunches of flowers and several cuddly toys were arranged around the base of a monument to Ukrainian national poet Taras Shevchenko in central St Petersburg. A young man said that "one way or another, even in times like these, this shouldn't become normal". Ukraine says the building in Dnipro was hit by a Russian Kh-22 missile. Among those who paid their respects in St Petersburg were a middle-aged couple.
Mo Abbas / NBC NewsKuvtun is among the Ukrainian Christians who turned Christmas into a fresh front in the war with Russia. We choose this civilization,” said Archbishop Yevstratiy Zorya, the spokesperson for the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Kyiv Patriarchate. Hours later, Putin ordered his military to observe a 36-hour cease-fire in Ukraine for Russian Orthodox Christmas and called on Kyiv to do the same. And even as it has sought to distance itself from Russia, the UOC has also stuck with Christmas on Jan. 7. Zorya, the OCU spokesman, said the Russian Orthodox Church, to which the UOC still bears at least a nominal connection, remains hopelessly imperial in its outlook.

KYIV, Oct 24 (Reuters) - Ukraine's national anti-corruption agency declared former central bank governor Kyrylo Shevchenko a wanted man on Monday along with two employees of the Ukrgazbank lender, on suspicion of embezzling more than 200 million hryvnia ($5.42 million). Shevchenko abruptly resigned on Oct. 4 citing health problems, but later saying he had faced political pressure after an old embezzlement case against him was reawakened immediately after his departure. He has denied any wrongdoing. Shevchenko assumed the post in July 2020, during the coronavirus pandemic, promising to maintain the bank's independence and to cooperate with the International Monetary Fund.

On Friday, the IMF said its executive board approved Kyiv's request for $1.3 billion in emergency funding through a Rapid Financing Instrument. This is on top of $1.4 billion the IMF has provided to Ukraine since the start of the war. Former central bank governor Kyrylo Shevchenko said in July that Kyiv hoped for a $15-$20 billion IMF programme before year-end. On Friday, IMF staff said talks with Ghana's government about a potential loan programme had been constructive but more work was needed on a debt-sustainability analysis.

They shattered months of relative calm in Kyiv and other areas far from the front lines. Across the country, at least 11 people were dead and 64 injured, according to the State Emergency Service of Ukraine. A number of blasts were heard in the center of Kyiv early Monday by NBC News. He later said that some of the city’s critical infrastructure was hit and that the the threat of new strikes remained. Kyiv's authorities also warned of possible power and water supply interruptions, and urged people to charge their phones and stock up on water.
KYIV, Ukraine—A few hours after a Russian cruise missile slammed into this city’s Shevchenko Park, locals were strolling with their dogs in the afternoon sunshine. A maintenance worker shooed people looking at the blast crater off the sidewalk, so he could clear leaves off the path. In the wake of the biggest attack on Ukraine’s capital since the first weeks of the war, Kyiv residents are still trying to live as normally as possible. The goal for the attack, residents said, was to frighten them into panic or surrender. By carrying on, they wanted to show that they wouldn’t be cowed.
Russian forces launched a deadly barrage of missiles and suicide drones into Ukraine on Monday. After the attack, Putin claimed his troops targeted Ukrainian military and energy facilities. Photos and videos of a burning crater in a park — next to a playground — paint a different image. They once again demonstrate the utter brutality of Mr. Putin's illegal war on the Ukrainian people," President Joe Biden said in a statement. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Russia had two targets in mind when it launched the attacks — the eastern European country's energy facilities and civilians.
Ukraine's vice prime minister confirmed that Kyiv, Dnipro, and Zaporizhzhia were struck. The attacks came after a blast crippled a bridge in Crimea that serves as a Russian supply line. This fresh volley of attacks from Russia comes after the Kerch Strait Bridge, a key supply route connecting Russia and Crimea, was damaged in a blast on Saturday. For his part, Putin on Sunday labeled the bridge blast a "terrorist act" carried out by the "special services of Ukraine." Ukraine has not officially claimed responsibility for the Kerch Strait Bridge blast but has hinted at its involvement in the incident.
"This is terrorism and I do not understand why a terrorist country is not recognized as such," the 52-year-old history teacher said of the Russian missile strikes that slammed into the Ukrainian capital during Monday's morning rush hour. Russia charged Ukraine with responsibility, while a Ukrainian presidential aide blamed the incident on infighting between Russian security bodies. Two missiles landed in quick succession on the edges of Shevchenko Park in central Kyiv, one striking a busy intersection next to a major university. People began trickling back into Shevchenko Park around lunchtime, curiously examining the huge crater. Denys Mykhailovskyi, 38, was studiously clearing glass from the floor of his basement bar, near the Shevchenko Park playground where a missile landed.
Russia does not fully control any of the four regions, with only around 60% of Donetsk region in Russian hands. With Crimea and the territory in the four other regions, Russia would gain an area about the same size as the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. If Russia goes ahead with the referendums and joins all four regions to Russia then Ukraine - and potentially its Western backers too - would, from a Russian perspective, be fighting against Russia itself. "All this talk about immediate referendums is an absolutely unequivocal ultimatum from Russia to Ukraine and the West." The conflict in eastern Ukraine began in 2014 after a pro-Russian president was toppled in Ukraine's Maidan Revolution and Russia annexed Crimea.
Since the war started, Ukraine needs a lot of help,” Shevchenko, who won the Ballon D’Or in 2004, says, adding that he’s in communication with Zelensky. The UN watchdog has warned that fighting at the occupied complex risks a “nuclear disaster.”“We don’t have to forget what’s going on in Ukraine. “Ukrainian people, for us, we need incredible support from the world. “It was incredible to sit in the crowd of Scottish people and have incredible support for Ukraine. “I felt like we were playing at home because the people united around the terrible war in Ukraine and wanted Ukraine to do well.

După ce a schimbat mai multe posturi, Zinchenko a ajuns să evolueze foarte bine ca mijlocaș ofensiv, cu un potențial enorm. A fost apoi căpitan al naționalei U19 a Ucrainei, iar la Șahtior a evoluat alături de Douglas Costa, Henrikh Mkhitaryan și Fernandinho. În 2014, când a izbucnit războiul în regiunea Donbas, mama lui Oleksandr Zinchenko a decis că e mai bine ca familia să fugă în Rusia. A impresionat imediat și a primit și prima convocare la naționala mare a Ucrainei, chiar cu câteva zile înainte de a împlini 19 ani, în octombrie 2015, într-o înfrângere cu Spania, 0-1.
