WorldRussia’s territorial gains in Ukraine nearly stall as diesel reportedly goes unsold

Independent observers and Ukraine’s military say Russian forces seized only 117.38 square kilometres in the first 10 months of 2026, a sharp slowdown from prior years, while estimated casualties rose. Russia intensified long-range attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure, killing civilians and leaving many families without power. US traders reportedly refused to honour a diesel deal between Trump and Putin.
