13.01.2026The Day of the Nova Poshta Terminal Strike
On January 13, 2026, Ukrainian media focus was dominated by a lethal ballistic missile strike on a Nova Poshta logistics terminal near Kharkiv. Editors prioritized the humanitarian cost of the attack, which killed four employees, framing it within a broader Russian campaign against energy and civilian infrastructure during a period of extreme frost.
By midday, the editorial narrative shifted to a significant legislative crisis. Outlets widely reported on the Verkhovna Rada's dismissal of SBU Chief Vasyl Maliuk and the subsequent failure of the parliamentary majority to confirm Denys Shmyhal and Mykhailo Fedorov to new ministerial roles. This political deadlock coincided with reports of worsening blackouts in Kyiv, where editors highlighted the psychological strain of freezing indoor temperatures and the risk of grid explosions.
In the evening, headlines pivoted to diplomatic efforts, specifically President Zelenskyy’s coordination with the Trump administration on reconstruction guarantees. Simultaneously, media monitored NATO’s response to the 'Oreshnik' ballistic threat and allegations of corruption involving Yulia Tymoshenko's attempt to bribe deputies during the failed cabinet votes.
