Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Tuesday that a Russian ballistic missile struck a power plant in Kyiv without advance warning from Western allies, killing at least two people and injuring about 20.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky said Western partners did not warn Kyiv before Russia’s ballistic missile attack on the evening of October 13. He said the strike focused on energy infrastructure and hit the CHP-4 plant; a residential building was damaged and caught fire. Citing Ukrainian intelligence, Zelensky said Russia was preparing more missile strikes. He also said Ukraine had received no warning before the previous day’s attack. Washington has not officially announced a halt to intelligence sharing.
Russian ballistic missiles struck Kyiv on Oct. 13, setting a nine-story residential building ablaze and killing one person while injuring four. Presidential adviser Dmytro Lytvyn said Ukraine had again received no advance warning from allies, while the Air Force said partners had not shared information about the launches.
Central Kyiv came under missile attack on Oct. 12, with explosions reported before an air raid alert sounded. Ukraine’s Air Force said Russia appeared to have fired ballistic missiles; President Volodymyr Zelensky said they hit civilian infrastructure and that partners had provided no advance warning. Separately, France’s navy intercepted and boarded the DF Peak, suspected of belonging to Russia’s shadow fleet, in the Indian Ocean.
Volodymyr Zelensky said Ukraine received no advance intelligence from Western partners before Russia fired five ballistic missiles at Kyiv on October 12. Ukrainian officials said similar failures to relay launch information had happened before, and cautioned against concluding that intelligence-sharing between Kyiv and Washington had stopped.

He called Monday’s attack “particularly vile” and said intelligence from western allies is vital for warning people and saving lives.

The FBI arrested a Saudi OpenAI employee who allegedly planted a recording device in a conference room. The incident comes as the ChatGPT maker and its competitors face increased scrutiny over their safety practices.
US authorities say Saudi national Abdulrahman Alfozan, a former OpenAI engineer, was arrested and charged over allegedly planting a concealed listening device in the company’s conference room to obtain sensitive information. OpenAI says it fired him and has found no indication he improperly accessed or removed model weights, source code or customer data.
OpenAI and federal prosecutors said Tuesday that a Saudi staff member had been detained on suspicion of placing a recorder in one of the company's San Francisco offices.

Missile debris fell in Riyadh during Houthi attacks, injuring four people and damaging 15 homes.
The Saudi-led coalition struck Houthi targets in Yemen’s capital. Donald Trump accused Iran-backed militants of deliberately seeking to push up oil prices ahead of the US midterm elections.
The Saudi-led coalition says it struck a fuel depot near Sanaa, which is controlled by the Houthis. The group warned it would retaliate by targeting sites in Riyadh and Dammam. The coalition accused the Houthis of using the depot to support attacks on Saudi Arabia, while the Houthi-run company said the facility held no fuel stocks.
Saudi Arabia launched a series of strikes on a strategic oil depot outside Sana’a after warning civilians to evacuate. The report describes it as the biggest attack so far on Houthi energy infrastructure and says the conflict between Riyadh and the Houthis is escalating.
On Tuesday, the Saudi-led coalition called on civilians to leave the Yemen Oil Company’s Sabah central station in Sanaa before a planned military operation.
Houthi media said Saudi Arabia attacked the Yemen Oil Company facility in Sanaa on Tuesday, shortly after the Saudi-led coalition ordered its evacuation ahead of a military operation. The Iran-backed rebels had warned they would target Riyadh airport and other sites in Saudi Arabia if the threat was carried out.
Iran-backed Houthi rebels said Saudi Arabia launched overnight airstrikes on areas in Yemen, while the Houthis have repeatedly attacked Saudi Arabia, including Riyadh airport. The fighting is hurting the kingdom’s security and economy. Saudi officials have stopped issuing Houthi attack alerts, a move observers say may be intended to calm public fears.
