WNBA star Brittney Griner, who has been jailed in Russia on drug charges since February, has been transferred to a penal colony about 275 miles southeast of Moscow to serve her nine-year sentence, her lawyers said Thursday.
Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy initially said his military and air force commanders assured him Ukraine was not responsible for Tuesday's blast. He called for Ukraine's participation in the investigation, which was granted. "I have no doubt that it was not our missile or not our missile strike," Zelenskyy said Wednesday. In a video appearance Thursday at the Bloomberg New Economy Forum, Zelenskyy sounded less certain about who launched the missile.
Polish President Andrzej Duda on Thursday visited the site where the missile landed and expressed understanding for Ukraine’s plight. “It is a hugely difficult situation for them and there are great emotions, there is also great stress,” Duda said.Ukraine's battered energy and water infrastructure is the result of Russian missile strikes targeting military infrastructure and Kyiv's refusal to negotiate an end to the war, Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Thursday.
Judge Hendrik Steenhuis said that evidence presented by prosecutors, at a trial that saw 69 days in court spread over more than two years, proved that the Boeing 777 flying from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur was brought down by a Buk missile fired by pro-Moscow rebels in Ukraine on July 17, 2014. Russia claims that Ukrainian fighters were responsible for the missile strike.
