26.09.2026 ⇢ The Day Lavrov Accused Europe of Sabotaging Talks
⌨
Overnight coverage centered on reciprocal strikes. The Defence Ministry claimed hits on an Odesa port facility and a Kyiv data centre supporting Starlink, which even independent outlets said disrupted internet and television broadcasting; exile press described damage to a kindergarten and lyceum. Ukrainian drones were reported over Krasnodar Krai and Rostov Oblast, with three dead in Seversky district, five injured near Rostov, fires at enterprises and a refinery, and halted train traffic.
By midday state agencies claimed capture of Petropavlovka, Lozovaya and Marino in Kharkiv Oblast, releasing footage without Ukrainian confirmation.
Attention then shifted to diplomacy. After reports that Trump urged a settlement before winter, Lavrov used the UN General Assembly tribune to accuse Europe of sabotaging talks and declare readiness to return to the Anchorage understandings, while holding his first meeting since 2022 with Germany’s foreign minister.
