Multiple explosions took place in the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv on Sunday morning when four missiles hit the city’s Shevchenkivskyi district.
The strikes on Kyiv by Russian missiles were the first in roughly three weeks . Russia’s military, which launched its brutal invasion in late February, had since focused its efforts on the southern and eastern regions of the country. The latest attacks could signal a new attempt by Moscow to retake the western cities it had previously failed to capture.
News of the blasts first emerged through images and videos posted to social media showing smoke rising up from several buildings. Within minutes, local media began reporting that a total of four missiles had hit the historic district, which is home to numerous universities, restaurants, art galleries, and other attractions.
Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko confirmed that authorities were responding to the strikes in a post on the Telegram messaging app, writing: “Ambulance crews and rescuers dispatched to the scene. More detailed information – later. Residents are being rescued and evacuated from two buildings.”
Russia began invading Ukraine in late February and has turned millions of women and children into refugees fleeing the violence. The bloodshed has also killed tens of thousands of Ukrainians and an unknown number of Russians. President Joe Biden and other major Western leaders condemned Russian President Vladimir Putin as a war criminal as devastation mounted across the European country. Reacting to the missile strikes on Sunday, Biden, who was in Germany for a G-7 summit, called it “more of their barbarism,” according to a press pool report.
Multiple efforts at peace talks have failed, though they have revealed the level of depravity of the Russian forces. Pictures of mass graves in the town of Bucha, a Kyiv suburb briefly captured by Russian forces, revealed that civilians were buried […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
