Russian President Vladimir Putin said his forces launched an attack that destroyed the largest power-generating plant in the Kyiv region in retaliation for assaults against his own country’s energy sector. Putin insisted that Russia was "obliged" to launch strikes on Ukrainian energy sites. The repeated attacks on civilian power stations have sparked outrage from Ukraine's allies. Speaking to Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko, President Putin argued that the attacks were only in response to Kyiv's attacks on Russian targets.

A lawsuit filed by the mother of the late Russian opposition figure, Alexei Navalny, alleging inadequate medical care during his time in the Arctic penal colony where he passed away, has been dismissed. The court in the town of Labytnangi, near the penal colony, rejected the suit, citing Navalny's absence as the plaintiff. Ivan Zhdanov, a former aide to Navalny, expressed dismay over the decision, highlighting Navalny's history of filing lawsuits regarding medical care in prisons. The dismissal, Zhdanov noted, comes with a tone of mockery, given Navalny's tragic demise.

in San Francisco on Feb. 21, CNN reports. .

others. And we always have to be
worried about a nuclear conflict. But the
existential threat to humanity is climate, President Joe Biden, via comment to reporters.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov commented on Biden's remarks.
I can say that such rude statements
from the head of the U.S. state are unlikely
to offend in any way the head of another
country, especially President Putin but this
is a huge disgrace for the country, I mean
for the United States of America, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, via statement.
So, if the president of such
a country uses such language,
it should be shameful. , Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, via statement.
Clearly, Mr. Biden is demonstrating
behavior in the style of a
Hollywood cowboy to cater
to domestic political interests, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, via statement.

He said that the GOP is "worse" than
Strom Thurmond, a 1940s segregationist.

I’ve been a senator since ‘72.
I’ve served with real racists.
I’ve served with Strom Thurmond. , Joe Biden, via statement.
I’ve served with all these guys that
have set terrible records on race.
But guess what? These guys are
worse. These guys do not believe
in basic democratic principles. , Joe Biden, via statement.
Time and again Republicans show they
are the party of chaos and division, Joe Biden, via statement.

In a chilling turn of events, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky narrowly escaped a Russian missile strike targeted at him on Wednesday. The incident unfolded in the bustling Black Sea port city of Odessa, where Zelensky was holding discussions with Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis. Miraculously, neither Zelensky nor any members of the Greek delegation sustained injuries, despite the missile landing perilously close, approximately 500 feet away, as reported by Greek officials to the Protothema news outlet. However, the Ukrainian presidential office remained silent in response to inquiries.
