Ukraine launched nearly 1,200 drones at Russian targets in one of its largest aerial attacks since the full-scale invasion began almost five years ago

The hard-line position of Russian officials in closed-door negotiations about ending the war thrusts European security into the heart of the talks.

Nov 13 (Reuters) - ⁠Democratic ⁠senators have ⁠told Elon Musk ​to preserve all ‌records related to ‌SpaceX's restrictions ⁠on ⁠Ukraine's use of its Starlink ​and Starshield satellite services, The ​Wall Street Journal reported ⁠on Friday, ⁠citing ⁠a letter.

Europe will send a team of diplomats from five countries and the European Union to the next round of Ukraine peace talks.

These shipments have grown in importance. Since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, two alumina factories — one in Australia, the other in Ukraine — stopped exporting to Russia, crimping its supplies by about 40%, according to a 2026 report by the Economic Security Council of Ukraine, or ESCU.

President Zelenskyy warned Tuesday that his country "was not real estate," as a second and final day of U.S.-brokered peace talks got underway.

Ukraine says its ability to intercept Russian strikes is again hampered by speed restrictions on Musk's Starshield network amid U.S.-led diplomacy.
