On February 21, 2026, The Times reported that Ukraine is not losing its war against Vladimir Putin. President Volodymyr Zelensky is quoted as saying this month: “We are not losing.” Ukraine may not be losing, but neither is it winning. Nor, therefore, is Russia. The war has settled into a grinding stalemate. Both sides …
In order to undermine what appears to be current, quite successful negotiations between Zelensky and Trump in Miami on ending the Ukrainian war, Vladimir Putin is lying about a Ukrainian 91-drone attack on one of his palatial residences. Conveniently, there was no damage to the mansion because all 91 drones were shot down! Highly …

It’s near the town of Sumy. This means that they have to travel huge distances from the south of Ukraine in Russian-controlled territory …
The British authorities deserve the praise that they are receiving from a Ukrainian bestselling author, Andrev Kurkov, for allowing Ukrainian refugees to bring their pets with them when fleeing their country after Putin’s invasion. This was a gift from the British authorities because Britain has been rabies free for more than a hundred years …
