Ukraine has confirmed it has conducted a successful strike on a major Russian chemical plant that supplies Moscow with essential war materials such as gunpowder, explosives, and rocket fuel. The attack, which appears to be a significant blow to Russia’s military capabilities, is believed to have disrupted critical supply chains for the Russian war effort. Officials have not yet provided detailed information on the extent of damage or casualties, but the strikes are seen as a potential shift in the balance of power in the conflict.

The visit comes amid ongoing discussions about the future of the conflict and potential steps toward a resolution. Zelenskyy’s presence in Sweden underscores the critical role of foreign support in sustaining Ukraine’s current military operations.
