Day 1,464.
Today, we bring you live dispatches from the north, east, and south of Ukraine following fresh Russian attacks overnight, as a United States delegation meets Ukrainian officials to prepare the next round of trilateral peace talks with Russia in Geneva. We also provide the latest updates on resistance activities in the occupied territories, and take a broader look at the state of Russian society after four years of Putin’s full-scale war – including the impact of sanctions, suppression, economic strain and, yes, updates on skyrocketing cucumber prices.
