30.04.2026 ⇢ The Day Melikov Washed Out
⌨
The day was defined by the dismissal of Dagestan's head Sergey Melikov after severe flooding, with Putin announcing his replacement by Fedor Shchukin. State-aligned outlets framed the exit as a planned transition, while independent Meduza linked it to the floods. Meanwhile, the Kremlin stated that Ukraine's consent for a Victory Day ceasefire was unnecessary, with Putin as the sole decision-maker. Ukrainian drone attacks continued, hitting Perm and Tuapse, coinciding with a Putin-Trump phone call where both claimed Ukraine was defeated. Oil prices surged above $126 per barrel. In the evening, Russia launched its first Soyuz-5 rocket after years of delays.
