 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...

 Trump Tells UK to “Get Your Own Oil” as Hormuz Crisis Deepens


Donald Trump has sharply distanced himself from the growing Middle East energy crisis, telling Britain and other allies to secure their own fuel supplies as disruption in the Strait of Hormuz continues to rattle global markets.


In a strongly worded Truth Social post on Tuesday, the U.S. president singled out the United Kingdom, accusing it of refusing to back recent military action against Iran and suggesting it now deal with the fallout itself.


“All of those countries that can’t get jet fuel because of the Strait of Hormuz, like the United Kingdom, I have a suggestion for you,” Trump wrote. “Number one, buy from the U.S., we have plenty, and number two, build up some delayed courage, go to the Strait, and just TAKE IT.”


He went further, adding that countries affected by the blockade would need to “start learning how to fight for yourself,” while insisting the United States would no longer step in on their behalf. Trump also claimed Iran had been “essentially decimated” and said, “The hard part is done. Go get your own oil.”


The comments come as Britain faces mounting concerns over fuel supplies. Reports indicate that one of the last known shipments of jet fuel from the Middle East is expected to arrive within the next 48 hours, with no confirmed tankers currently known to have passed through the blocked Strait of Hormuz en route to the UK.


The closure of the strategic waterway has already sent shockwaves through energy markets, with oil prices surging and fuel costs rising across Europe. Brent crude reportedly jumped above $117 a barrel following Trump’s latest remarks, adding further pressure on household energy bills and transport costs.


Prime Minister Keir Starmer is understood to be holding another emergency Cobra meeting as the government weighs the economic impact of the crisis, including the knock-on effect on fuel, food and utility prices.


U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth later echoed Trump’s stance, urging allied nations to take a more active role in reopening the Strait of Hormuz and restoring the flow of oil shipments.


With fuel prices already hitting their highest levels since 2022, the standoff is beginning to be felt far beyond the Middle East, with consumers across Europe bracing for more expensive transport and energy bills in the weeks ahead.
