Russia hit the town of Merefa with a ballistic missile at 9:35am on a Monday. Six dead. More than thirty wounded including a two-year-old. Shops, a restaurant, an administrative building. Naftogaz says it has been struck 107 times since the start of 2026. Meanwhile Trump says the war might last 'another two to three weeks' as if he's predicting a weather pattern. The kicker: the ceasefire he announced was already fraying before the ink dried, and the people dying in Merefa didn't get a press release about it.

Body

A Russian Iskander ballistic missile hit the center of Merefa at 9:35 in the morning. Shops. A restaurant. An administrative building. Six people dead. More than thirty wounded. One of them a two-year-old boy.

Naftogaz has been struck 107 times since the start of 2026. Let that number sit. 107 times. In four months. One resident named Ihor said he heard the explosion and went looking for his wife. She was gone. That's the sentence. That's the whole sentence.

Trump, meanwhile, says the war might last another two to three weeks. Like he's checking the forecast. The ceasefire he announced was already fraying before anyone in Merefa had a chance to read about it. The people who died Monday didn't get a press briefing. They got an Iskander at 9:35am.
