Ukraine-Russia War: 2026-10-10

Russian tech firm Yandex said its Sasovo data centre in Ryazan region was seriously damaged and suspended, and part of its Kaluga site was taken out of service after Ukrainian drone strikes. President Zelensky said the attacks mirrored Russian strikes on Ukrainian data centres; Ukraine's defence ministry confirmed the hits.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said any weakening of pressure without real agreements to halt strikes would continue the war, calling the US-Russia diesel arrangement a gift to Putin and a weak decision by strong partners. The UK said it would keep pressure on Russia through sanctions.

President Donald Trump said after a call with Vladimir Putin that Russia agreed to supply over 300,000 tons of diesel immediately, another 500,000 tons in November and 1 million tons thereafter. The Kremlin said Russia reaffirmed readiness to supply oil and oil products to American and world markets.

US envoy Steve Witkoff said United States, Ukrainian and European officials held constructive discussions in Miami on de-escalation, energy resilience, grain exports, security guarantees and Ukraine's post-war reconstruction, including EU accession. The meeting came as Rubio warned the conflict risks escalation beyond a negotiated settlement.

Russian President Vladimir Putin told US President Donald Trump that an immediate resumption of talks with Ukraine is unlikely, citing Ukrainian drone attacks on Moscow during last month's parliamentary elections, according to Al Jazeera. Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov said Moscow would now assess when negotiations can resume.
