Foreign Sec presents more sanctions but warns of 'hardships'
Foreign Secretary Liz Truss announces a slew of new sanctions against Russia to the House of Commons, including "cutting Russia's central bank off" from UK markets and preventing Russia's banks from clearing in sterling.
She warns these sanctions will mean "economic hardship" for the UK and its allies, but says these are "nothing compared" to those endured by the people of Ukraine.

Kyiv and Kharkiv faced the brunt of the attack, with Kharkiv suffering significant damage from multiple ballistic missile strikes. The strikes targeted energy infrastructure, causing emergency blackouts and widespread destruction. Ukrainian air defenses managed to intercept over 50 missiles, but the scale of the attack left significant devastation.

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte has sharply criticized Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for his recent remarks against German Chancellor Olaf Scholz. In a bold response, Rutte called Zelensky’s attacks on Scholz “unfair,” stating that such criticism undermines diplomatic efforts.

Rutte's statement reflects growing concern over the impact of internal disagreements on European unity and NATO’s collective strategy. Watch now to see Rutte’s strong rebuke of Zelensky’s actions.
