 Russia launches massive drone and missile barrage on Ukraine, killing at least 18 civilians and striking Kyiv and multiple cities  Russia carried out a large-scale overnight assault on Ukraine, launching hundreds of drones and dozens of missiles that killed at least 18 civilians and wounded more than 100 others across multiple cities, officials said Tuesday. The strikes hit Kyiv, Dnipro and other regions, with emergency crews working through destroyed residential buildings where some victims were trapped under rubble. In Dnipro, rescuers recovered the bodies of a 3-year-old child and a mother and her 8-year-old son, while officials reported 12 deaths in the city and six in Kyiv. The bombardment stretched from night into daylight, with explosions reported across wide areas of the country. Kyiv residents had been on alert for days after warnings of a major aerial attack, including advisories for foreign diplomats to leave the capital. Despite those warnings, most remained in pl...

 Tesla rolls out lower-priced versions of two EVs to regain market share during challenging year

Tesla introduced lower-priced versions of two of its electric vehicles on Tuesday, aiming to boost sales amid a challenging year, but the move failed to reassure investors, and the company’s stock dropped sharply.

The new Model Y, priced just under $40,000 with a simplified interior, arrives as Tesla contends with an aging lineup, growing competition from foreign EV makers, and backlash tied to Elon Musk. Tesla also launched a more affordable Model 3 for under $37,000, which drops below $35,000 for New York buyers after state rebates. Analysts noted that the new offerings are far from the $25,000 vehicle Tesla once promised and may struggle to drive significant sales, especially following the expiration of the $7,500 federal EV tax credit.

The stock market responded cautiously: Tesla shares fell 4.5% to $443.09 on Tuesday, after gaining more than 5% the previous day in anticipation of the announcement. Edmunds analyst Ivan Drury said, “Investors were looking for something truly different, not an iteration of an old product. I can’t imagine this will bring levels back to what they want.”

Compared to previous versions, the new Model Y has a shorter 321-mile driving range, fewer audio speakers, a fabric interior rather than microsuede, no panoramic glass roof, and lacks a second-row touchscreen. The new Model 3 also trims its driving range, ambient lighting, and other features. Both models face stiff competition around the $40,000 price point from the Ford Mustang Mach-E, Chevrolet Equinox EV, and Hyundai Ioniq 5.
