Ukraine Marks Somber Anniversary as Zelenskyy Vows Resolve Amid Fractured Allied Support

Ukrainians pay tribute to victims of the Russian invasion, on the day marking the fourth anniversary of the full-scale Russian invasion. As Ukraine enters another year of full‑scale war, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy used the anniversary to deliver a message of defiance and endurance. Speaking to the nation, he emphasized that Ukraine’s determination to resist Russia has not weakened, even as the conflict grinds on with no clear end in sight. Zelenskyy highlighted the sacrifices made by civilians and soldiers alike, framing Ukraine’s struggle as a fight for national survival and democratic values.

Tragic Suicide Bombing at Quetta Railway Station Claims 26 Lives

 

In a devastating incident, a suicide bomber detonated an explosive device at a railway station in Quetta, southwestern Pakistan, on Saturday, resulting in the deaths of at least 26 people, including soldiers and railway staff. The attack, which also left around 62 others injured, occurred as nearly 100 passengers were waiting for a train to Rawalpindi.

The explosion caused significant damage to the station, with the steel structure of the platform’s roof blown apart and luggage scattered across the area. Emergency services rushed to the scene, transporting the injured to nearby hospitals, where some of the critically wounded succumbed to their injuries.

The Balochistan Liberation Army, a separatist group, claimed responsibility for the attack, stating that it targeted troops present at the station. This incident follows a recent bombing in the province that killed nine people, including five children.

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif condemned the attack, vowing that those responsible would face severe consequences. The international community, including Afghanistan and Russia, also expressed their condolences to the victims’ families.

This tragic event highlights the ongoing security challenges in the region and the need for continued efforts to combat terrorism.
