28.07.2025Ultimatum's Shortening, Olenivka's Echo
Ukrainian media's initial focus on July 28 centered on widespread Russian aerial assaults across Ukraine, including Kyiv, causing casualties and prompting air defense responses. A major shift occurred mid-day, with US President Donald Trump's new ultimatum dominating headlines: Russia must settle the war or agree to a truce within 10-12 days, significantly shortening his previous 50-day deadline. This development received extensive multi-source coverage. Later, the somber third anniversary of the Olenivka prison massacre, remembering Ukrainian POWs, became a prominent theme. President Zelensky signed a law to bolster the SBU and acknowledged Trump's firm stance. Towards evening, concerns over anti-corruption backslides and their potential impact on vital EU support resurfaced, echoing discussions from prior days. Intense frontline clashes, especially in the Pokrovsk sector, were consistently reported.
