Republican Lindsey Graham and Democrat Richard Blumenthal have introduced a bill in the Senate that would place new sanctions on Russia over the war in Ukraine.

US president Donald Trump continued his tirade against his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin as he faced delay in ending the Ukraine war while Moscow amped up attacks on its smaller neighbour.

President Trump criticised Russian President Putin during a Cabinet meeting, stating he is open to sanctions. He also announced 10% tariffs on all BRICS countries, including India, accusing the bloc of trying to undermine the US.

Parts of Ukraine were on fire overnight after Russia launched its largest drone attack on Ukraine since the war unfolded more than three years ago. Just hours earlier, President Trump directly called out Vladimir Putin for stalled peace talks.
