Musk’s tweet comes after the United States, Britain, Canada, Estonia and the United Kingdom confirmed the cyberattack on Tuesday. ,Russia attacked Viasat’s (VSAT.O) KA-SAT network later February just as Moscow troops moved into Ukraine. According to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, the attack was meant to “disrupt Ukrainian command and control during the invasion, and those actions had spillover impacts into other European countries.”,Also Read | Jack Dorsey says Elon Musk right to revoke Donald Trump's Twitter ban,The attack, according to the US, was massive, because when “those modems were knocked offline it wasn’t like you could unplug them and plug them back in and reboot and they come back.” “They were down and down hard; they had to go to the factory to be swapped out,” US National Security Agency’s director of cybersecurity told Reuters. According to Ukrainian government documents reviewed by Reuters, the satellite network under attack was used by the Ukrainian army and police units. In March, Ukrainian cybersecurity official Victor Zhora had said that the satellite modem “sabotage” led to a huge loss of communications in the very beginning of the war.

In March, Musk provided thousands of internet terminals to Ukraine. The antennae-like terminals catch the internet from Musk’s satellites in space.

US’ director of electronic warfare at the office of the Secretary of Defense, said the way Starlink had fought off the attacks was “eye-watering for him”.

Ukrainian troops have destroyed Russian tanks and used the network for drone attacks.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"50.4501","longitude":"30.5234","name":"Kyiv, Ukraine","city":"Kyiv"},"keywords":"Russian,Musk,Ukraine,US,Ukrainian,Viasat,Elon Musk,Russians,the United States,Britain,Canada,Estonia,the United Kingdom,Russia,Moscow","originalPublishedOn":"2022-05-11T13:45:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"PmtrXahbjky4","slug":"english/us-assures-sweden-finland-of-protection-from-russia-during-nato-application","slugV2":"world/us-assures-sweden-finland-of-protection-from-russia-during-nato-application-485004/","title":"US assures Sweden, Finland of protection from Russia during NATO application","postType":1,"coverMedia":"/opoyi_w15Ci_JU6.jpg","coverCaption":"The US on Thursday gave security assurances to Sweden and Finland with a NATO bid soon expected.

The diplomatic meet has been dubbed the highest-level visit to Ukraine since February 24, when Russia began its special operation. Oleksiy Arestovych, the top presidential advisor to Zelensky, confirmed the meeting on Sunday in a televised interview, Associated Press reported. It came as Ukraine pressed the West for more powerful weapons against Russia's campaign in the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine, where Moscow's forces sought to dislodge the last Ukrainian troops in the battered port of Mariupol. Yes, they're meeting with the president. Let's hope something will be decided on further help, Arestovych said in an interview on Ukrainian TV. Before the session, Zelensky said he was looking for the Americans to produce results, both in arms and security guarantees. You can't come to us empty-handed today, and we are expecting not just presents or some kind of cakes, we are expecting specific things and specific weapons,'' he said. The visit would be the first by senior U.S. officials since Russia invaded 60 days ago. Blinken stepped briefly onto Ukrainian soil in March to meet with the country's foreign minister during a visit to Poland. Zelensky's last face-to-face meeting with a top US official was February 19 in Munich with Vice President Kamala Harris. While the West has funneled military equipment to Ukraine, Zelensky has stressed repeatedly it needs more heavy weapons, including long-range air defense systems, as well as warplanes. In an apparent boost for Ukraine, polling agencies said French President Emmanuel Macron would win reelection over far right candidate Marine Le Pen. The result was hailed by France's allies in the European Union as a reassuring sign of stability and continued support for Ukraine. France has played a leading role in international efforts to punish Russia with sanctions and is supplying weapons systems to Ukraine. Zelensky's meeting with U.S. officials was set to take place as Ukrainians and Russians observed Orthodox Easter, when the faithful celebrate the resurrection of Jesus. Speaking from Kyiv's ancient St. Sophia Cathedral, Zelensky, who is Jewish, highlighted its significance to a nation wracked by nearly two months of war. The great holiday today gives us great hope and unwavering faith that light will overcome darkness, good will overcome evil, life will overcome death, and therefore Ukraine will surely win! he said. Still, the war cast a shadow over celebrations. In the northern village of Ivanivka, where Russian tanks still littered the roads, Olena Koptyl said the Easter holiday doesn't bring any joy. I'm crying a lot. We cannot forget how we lived. Victor Lobush of Kyiv said Ukraine needs more weapons and financial support, and for Western nations not to buy even a drop of the Russian oil. Actions, not words, are needed, he said on Independence Square. The Russian military reported hitting 423 Ukrainian targets overnight, including fortified positions and troop concentrations, while its warplanes destroyed 26 Ukrainian military sites, including an explosives factory and several artillery depots. Most of Sunday's fighting focused on the Donbas region, where Ukrainian forces are concentrated and where Moscow-backed separatists controlled some territory before the war. Since failing to capture Kyiv, the Russians are aiming to gain full control over the eastern industrial heartland. Ukraine's national police said two girls, aged 5 and 14, died in shelling in the town of Ocheretyne, part of the industrial region. Russian forces launched fresh airstrikes on a Mariupol steel plant where an estimated 1,000 civilians are sheltering along with about 2,000 Ukrainian fighters. The Azovstal steel mill where the defenders are holed up is the last corner of resistance in the city, which the Russians have otherwise occupied. Zelensky said he stressed the need to evacuate civilians from Mariupol, including from the steel plant, in a Sunday call with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who is scheduled to speak later with Russian leader Vladimir Putin. Zelensky adviser Oleksiy Arestovych said Ukraine has proposed talks with Russia next to the sprawling steel mill. Arestovych said on the Telegram messaging app that Russia has not responded to the proposal that would include establishing humanitarian corridors and the exchange of Russian war prisoners for the fighters still in the plant. U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres Guterres is scheduled to travel to Turkey on Monday and then Moscow and Kyiv. Zelensky it was a mistake for Guterres to visit Russia before Ukraine. Why? To hand over signals from Russia? What should we look for? Zelensky said Saturday. There are no corpses scattered on the Kutuzovsky Prospect, he said, referring to one of Moscow's main avenues. Mariupol has seen fierce fighting since the start of the war due to its location on the Sea of Azov. Its capture would deprive Ukraine of a vital port, free up Russian troops to fight elsewhere, and allow Moscow to establish a land corridor to the Crimean Peninsula, which it seized from Ukraine in 2014. More than 100,000 people — down from a prewar population of about 430,000 — are believed to remain in Mariupol with scant food, water or heat. Ukrainian authorities estimate over 20,000 civilians have been killed. Recent satellite images showed what appeared to be mass graves to the west and east of Mariupol. Mykhailo Podolyak, another presidential adviser, tweeted that the Russian military was attacking the plant with heavy bombs and artillery while accumulating forces and equipment for a direct assault. During a Saturday address to the nation, Zelensky accused Russians of committing war crimes by killing civilians, as well as of setting up filtration camps near Mariupol for those trying to leave the city. He said the Ukrainians — many of them children — are then sent to areas under Russian occupation or to Russia itself, often as far as Siberia or the Far East. They have pulled these people from Mariupol -- they are put to filtration camps ... it's sort of something that can't be happening in the 21st century, Kravchuk said. Zelensky claimed that intercepted communications recorded Russian troops discussing how they conceal the traces of their crimes in Mariupol. He also highlighted the death of a 3-month old girl in a Russian missile strike Saturday on the Black Sea port of Odesa. In attacks Saturday, Russian forces pounded cities and towns in southern and eastern Ukraine. The baby was among eight people killed when Russia fired cruise missiles at Odesa, Ukrainian officials said. For the Donbas offensive, Russia has reassembled troops who fought around Kyiv and in northern Ukraine. The British Ministry of Defense said Ukrainian forces had repelled numerous assaults in the past week and inflicted significant cost on Russian forces. Poor Russian morale and limited time to reconstitute, re-equip and reorganize forces from prior offensives are likely hindering Russian combat effectiveness, the ministry said. The spiritual leaders of the world's Orthodox Christians and Roman Catholics appealed for relief for Ukraine's suffering population. From Istanbul, Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I said a human tragedy was unfolding. Bartholomew, considered the first among his Eastern Orthodox patriarch equals, cited in particular the thousands of people surrounded in Mariupol, civilians, among them the wounded, the elderly, women and many children. Pope Francis, speaking from a window overlooking St. Peter's Square, renewed his call for an Easter truce, calling it a minimal and tangible sign of a desire for peace.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"50.4501","longitude":"30.5234","name":"Kyiv, Ukraine","city":"Kyiv"},"keywords":"Volodymyr Zelensky, Antony Blinken, Lloyd Austin, Oleksiy Arestovych, Donbas","originalPublishedOn":"2022-04-25T04:00:00+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"1uRiWstDlumA","slug":"english/united-states-authorities-blocking-russian-embassys-work-says-envoy","slugV2":"world/united-states-authorities-blocking-russian-embassys-work-says-envoy-117121/","title":"United States authorities 'blocking' Russian embassy's work, says envoy","postType":1,"coverMedia":"https://images.opoyi.net/opoyi_hUEmq622H.jpg","coverCaption":"A Ukrainian serviceman walks past an Antonov An-225 aircraft destroyed during fighting between Russian and Ukrainian forces.

For us, it is already happiness.”,Also read | Ukraine claims Mariupol residents were forcibly sent to Russia's Far East,Russia said it took control of several villages elsewhere in the eastern Donbas region and destroyed 11 Ukrainian military targets overnight, including three artillery warehouses. Russian attacks also struck populated areas. ,Associated Press journalists observed shelling in residential areas of Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second-largest city; regional Gov. Oleh Sinehubov said three people were killed. In the Luhansk area of the Donbas, Gov. Serhiy Haidai said six people died during the shelling of a village, Gorskoi. ,In Sloviansk, a town in northern Donbas, the AP witnessed two soldiers arriving at a hospital, one of them mortally wounded. Sitting in a wheelchair outside her damaged Sloviansk apartment, Anna Direnskaya, 70, said, “I want peace.” ,One of many native Russian speakers in eastern Ukraine, Direnskaya said she wishes Russians would understand that Ukrainians are not bad people and that there should be no enmity between them. ,“Why is this happening?” she said. “I don’t know.”,Also read | Ukraine official claims Russian airstrike on Odesa kills eight,British officials said Russian forces had not gained significant new ground, but Ukrainian officials announced a nationwide curfew ahead of Easter Sunday, a sign of the war’s disruption and threat to the entire country. ,Mariupol has been a key Russian objective and has taken on outsize importance in the war. It would deprive Ukraine of a vital port, free up Russian troops to fight elsewhere, and establish a land corridor to the Crimean Peninsula, which Moscow seized in 2014. Russia-backed separatists control parts of the Donbas. ,An adviser to Ukraine’s presidential office, Oleksiy Arestovych, said Russian forces resumed airstrikes on the Azovstal plant and were also trying to storm it, in an apparent reversal of tactics. Two days earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin had given an order not to send troops in but instead to blockade the plant. ,Ukrainian officials have estimated that about 2,000 of their troops along with civilians are taking refuge in its tunnels. ,Earlier Saturday the Azov Regiment of Ukraine’s National Guard, which has members holed up in the plant, released the video of around two dozen women and children. Its contents could not be independently verified, but if authentic, it would be the first video testimony of what life has been like for civilians trapped underground there. ,The video shows soldiers giving sweets to children who respond with fist-bumps. One young girl says she and her relatives “haven’t seen neither the sky nor the sun” since they left home Feb. 27. Also read | Zelensky insists on Biden visit, ahead of Blinken, Austin's Kyiv arrival,The regiment’s deputy commander, Sviatoslav Palamar, told the AP the video was shot Thursday. The Azov Regiment has its roots in the Azov Battalion, which was formed by far-right activists in 2014 at the start of the separatist conflict in eastern Ukraine and has elicited criticism for some of its tactics. ,More than 100,000 people — down from a prewar population of about 430,000 — are believed to remain in Mariupol with scant food, water or heat. Ukrainian authorities estimate that over 20,000 civilians have been killed in the city. ,Yet another attempt to evacuate women, children and older adults from Mariupol failed Saturday. Petro Andryushchenko, an adviser to Mariupol’s mayor, said Russian forces did not allow Ukrainian-organized buses to take residents to Zaporizhzhia, a city 227 kilometers (141 miles) to the northwest. ,“At 11 o’clock, at least 200 Mariupol residents gathered near the Port City shopping center, waiting for evacuation,” Andryushchenko posted on the Telegram messaging app. “The Russian military drove up to the Mariupol residents and ordered them to disperse, because now there will be shelling.” ,At the same time, he said, Russian buses assembled about 200 meters (yards) away. Residents who boarded those were told they were being taken to separatist-occupied territory and not allowed to disembark, Andryushchenko said. His account could not be independently verified. ,In the attack on Odesa, Russian troops fired at least six missiles, according to Anton Gerashchenko, an adviser to Ukraine’s interior minister. Also read | Ukraine's Zelensky says sparing lives of Mariupol citizens key to talks with Russia,“Residents of the city heard explosions in different areas,” Gerashchenko said via Telegram. “Residential buildings were hit. It is already known about one victim. He burned in his car in a courtyard of one of the buildings.” ,Zelenskyy’s news conference was held in a Kyiv subway station, where he paused at one point as a train noisily passed through. The subway system, which includes the world’s deepest station, attracted widespread attention early in the war when hordes of people took shelter there. ,Regarding the expected visit Sunday by U.S. officials, Zelenskyy said: “I believe that we will be able to get agreements from the United States or part of that package on arming Ukraine which we agreed on earlier. Besides, we have strategic questions about security guarantees, which it is time to discuss in detail, because the United States will be one of those leaders of security countries for our state.” ,Fisch reported from Sloviansk, Ukraine.

Earlier this month, the US Department of Justice announced its first criminal accusations against Malofeyev since Russia's war in Ukraine began, indicting him for sanctions evasion attempts. Also read: Will Putin positions hold sway over French elections?,On Wednesday, the US sanctioned Malofeyev once more for having acted or purported to act for or on behalf of, directly or indirectly, the Russian government. Members of Malofeyev's vast global network of cut-outs and proxies to attempt to evade sanctions and conduct malign influence activities, including individuals active in pro-Kremlin propaganda, were also sanctioned by the Treasury Department. Russian entities, Moldovan entities, Singaporean entities, and a number of Russian individuals, including Malofeyev's son, have all been sanctioned. The Treasury Department also went after Public Joint Stock Company Transkapitalbank (TKB) and its subsidiary, as well as enterprises in Russia's virtual currency mining industry, for being at the heart of sanctions evasion.

It also suspends visas for Russian officials Khusein Merlovich Khutaev, Nurid Denilbekovich Salamov, and Dzhabrail Alkhazurovich Akhmatov for their involvement in a gross violation of human rights perpetrated against human rights defender Oyub Titiev.

We will use every tool to promote accountability for human rights abuses and violations of international humanitarian law in Ukraine, Blinken said. According to Rachel Rizzo, a senior fellow at the Atlantic Council's Europe Center, these penalties are really meaningful, noting that the US is adding different Russian oligarchs, different Russian banks that perhaps weren't in the first few rounds of sanctions. They'll continue to cripple the Russian economy even though Putin continues to paint a rosy picture of what the Russian economy looks like, she said. There's no doubt that it should see a major contraction in the next year.","portalUser":{"id":"kQKU5wG2FUA","name":"Opoyi Central","username":"opoyicentral","photo":"https://ik.imagekit.io/o8plo3y5if/opoyi_6k77dlSYd.jpg","role":2,"userType":1},"opinions":[],"liveblogStatus":true,"lastReply":null,"replyUser":null,"userMentions":[],"lastCommentMentions":null,"lastReplyMentions":null,"checkIn":{"latitude":"38.9072","longitude":"-77.0369","name":"Washington D.C., DC, USA","city":"Washington"},"keywords":"Russian,US,Russia,Ukraine,the State Department,Belarus,Donetsk People's Republic,Putin,Konstantin Malofeyev,The US Treasury Department,Biden,Kremlin,European,Treasury,Aleksandr Borodai","originalPublishedOn":"2022-04-21T04:04:49+05:30"}},{"node":{"id":"0Nj5WeFBX9Re","slug":"english/joe-biden-or-kamala-harris-united-states-likely-to-send-top-level-official-to-ukraine","slugV2":"world/joe-biden-or-kamala-harris-united-states-likely-to-send-top-level-official-to-ukraine-105719/","title":"Joe Biden or Kamala Harris?

The programme follows US President Joe Biden's pledge to admit up to 100,000 Ukrainian refugees through a variety of legal channels, with a focus on family reunification. More than two weeks after the announcement, the administration has neglected to give any details, and hundreds of Ukrainians have decided to travel to the US-Mexico border to gain entrance.

Individuals would need to have a sponsorship application filled out on their behalf, according to one administration official, in order to come to the United States. The plan's specifics were still being worked out. According to the administration official, the effort involves the State Department and the Department of Homeland Security. The strategy is identical to that used with Afghans following the fall of Kabul. According to a person familiar with the negotiations, since Biden declared last month that he would welcome up to 100,000 Ukrainians, authorities have been debating how to prioritise applicants, including how to accommodate refugees facing potential persecution.

Since the declaration, administration officials have been discussing the policy process, including which method persons fleeing Ukraine could use to travel to the United States. Nonetheless, Biden's advisers believe that the majority of the more than 4 million people who have fled Ukraine would choose to stay in the region rather than migrate to the US. According to an individual, the 100,000 figure Biden announced when visiting Brussels in March does not necessarily reflect the number of refugees US officials estimate would eventually seek entry into the US.
