Monday, Aug. 26, marks the 3rd anniversary of the Kabul Airport suicide bombing during the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan that killed 13 U.S. service members. Former President Donald Trump laid wreaths at Arlington National Cemetery to commemorate the fallen service members.
Ukrainian officials said Russia launched an airstrike involving over 100 missiles and around 100 drones, killing at least five people. It appeared to be Russia’s biggest attack against Ukraine in weeks. Russia said the strike hit energy facilities across Ukraine and disrupted arms supplies.
