Russia Launches Record Drone Attack on Ukraine; Trump Condemns Putin’s “Needless Killing”
Kyiv, Ukraine: Russia launched a massive drone offensive, deploying 355 drones in what officials call the largest barrage since 2022. Former U.S. President Donald Trump, typically reserved about criticizing Vladimir Putin, sharply denounced the strikes as “needless killing,” branding Putin “absolutely crazy.” This marked a distinct shift in Trump’s rhetoric toward the Russian leader. Despite condemnation and sanctions, Moscow’s campaign continues with strategic drone and missile attacks aimed at Ukrainian cities, fueling concerns about escalated aggression.
What this means for you:
In the next 2–3 weeks, watch for market volatility if you invest in European sectors—heightened conflict often disrupts supply lines.
Within 1–2 months, check updates on prospective peace talks; if negotiations stall, energy prices in parts of Europe may rise up to 10%.
Donate to credible humanitarian agencies if you’re looking to help—some are focusing on shelters for families displaced by drone strikes.
Plan any travel or business expansions with caution, factoring in possible escalations in Eastern Europe throughout 2025.
