Zelenskyy to meet Trump on Monday

Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy has confirmed that he plans to meet Trump in Washington on Monday after Trumps’s summit with Putin.

“Ukraine reaffirms its readiness to work with maximum effort to achieve peace,” Zelenskyy said on X on Saturday.

“We support President Trump’s proposal for a trilateral meeting between Ukraine, the USA, and Russia. Ukraine emphasises that key issues can be discussed at the level of leaders, and a trilateral format is suitable for this,” he added.

We had a long and substantive conversation with @POTUS. We started with one-on-one talks before inviting European leaders to join us. This call lasted for more than an hour and a half, including about an hour of our bilateral conversation with President Trump.

Factory blast in Russia’s Ryazan kills 11, injures 130

A blast at a factory in the Russian region of Ryazan on Friday killed 11 people and left 130 injured, Russia’s emergencies ministry said on Saturday.

In a statement on Telegram, the ministry said rescuers were continuing to search through rubble at the scene of the blast, 200 miles (320km) south-east of Moscow.

The Ryazan regional governor, Pavel Malkov, said on Friday that the incident had been triggered by a fire breaking out inside a workshop at the factory.

There was no cause given for the fire, not was it clear what the factory produced. Ukrainian drones have previously targeted military and economic infrastructure in Ryazan region. In January, a major oil refinery and power station had been hit by Ukrainian drones.

Some Russian media outlets reported that the explosion was caused by gunpowder catching fire.
