Ukraine Hits Oil, Abramovich Mediates

Author: The Daily News Now! June 8, 2026 Duration: 1:22

Ukraine’s strikes on Russian oil facilities are sending shockwaves through Moscow’s economy, while Roman Abramovich unexpectedly steps into the diplomatic limelight, shuttling messages between Kyiv and Putin. As the EU gears up for fresh sanctions targeting Russia’s war machine and human rights violators, both sides trade blows in the skies—with Russia claiming hundreds of drones shot down, including over Moscow, and Ukraine hitting a train in Crimea. Zelenskyy remains open to talks anywhere outside Russia or Belarus, but insists Ukraine won’t surrender Donbas.
