Overnight reports: Russia ups attacks near Poland; Trump revises EU tariff plan

• Poland scrambled fighter jets in response to Russian attacks near the border.
• Russia intensified its actions, launching hundreds of drones and ballistic missiles.
• Donald Trump decided to halt the imposition of tariffs on goods from the EU.

During the night from Sunday to Monday, Russia once again struck various parts of Ukraine, including areas near the Polish border. "This marks the second consecutive very busy night for the entire air defense system in Poland," stated the Operational Command of the Armed Forces.

Russia escalated its attacks on Ukraine, launching hundreds of drones and dozens of ballistic missiles. If it continues increasing production, it could potentially launch up to a thousand drones toward Ukraine daily. "The Economist" warns that such actions might overwhelm Ukrainian air defenses. The new Shahed drones, which Russia received from Iran, are more challenging to intercept.

Donald Trump spoke out following Russia's recent attacks on Ukraine. The U.S. President stated that "he's not happy" and "doesn't know what happened to Putin." The attack from Saturday to Sunday was one of the largest since the start of the full-scale invasion, resulting in 12 deaths, including three children.

Donald Trump decided to halt the imposition of 50% tariffs on goods from the EU after a conversation with Ursula von der Leyen. Trade negotiations are expected to commence soon. Trump announced his decision after previously stating that talks with the EU were "going nowhere."

Michael Kretschmer, a German CDU politician, is advocating for resuming dialogue with Russia regarding Nord Stream 2. He argues that it's an opportunity to lower energy costs. However, Chancellor Friedrich Merz maintains a veto against the pipeline's launch.
