Russian Forces Launch Sustained Strikes on Zaporizhzhia, Reports Say
Russian strikes on Zaporizhzhia overnight into 2 June underscore how far the operational reality on the ground diverges from the renewed language of negotiation, with Iskander production flat at roughly 700 a year and Putin's stated war aims unchanged.

Desk note: Monexus framed this piece from the Ukrainian civilian and Western-wire perspective, used Russian-state-aligned channels only as attributed counter-claim material, and treated the strikes on Zaporizhzhia as the primary fact rather than as backdrop to the negotiation track. Where Russian claims were cited (Putin's casualty figures, his characterisation of war aims), they were flagged as Russian-government positions, not as independently verified data.
