Quick Glance: Russia Aims to Capture Chasiv Yar by 9 May

Ukraine's top commander stated that Russian forces aimed to capture the town of Chasiv Yar by 9 May, marking a crucial battle for control of high ground in the east where Russia is directing its assaults.

The potential fall of the town before the Soviet Victory Day would signal increasing Russian battlefield momentum amid a slowdown in Western military aid to Kyiv.

Kyiv's brigades are currently holding back the assaults near Chasiv Yar and have received reinforcements in terms of ammunition, drones, and electronic warfare devices.

Recent escalations in the war have raised concerns about the resilience of Ukraine's energy system, with Russia conducting significant air strikes on Ukrainian power plants and substations.

Quick Glance: Magnitude 4.8 Earthquake Rocks New York City and Northeast US

An unusual East Coast earthquake startled millions from New York to rural New England. Over 42 million people may have felt the midmorning quake with a preliminary magnitude of 4.8.

While causing no widespread damage, the earthquake led to evacuations in Newark, New Jersey, and infrastructure inspections across the region. Flights were diverted, trains slowed, and tunnel traffic stopped.

Although no major damages were reported, the earthquake caused some disruptions. The area near the epicenter experienced minor effects, including the collapse of a historic site. There were also over a dozen aftershocks reported in the region.

President Joe Biden offered assistance, while New York City reported no major safety or infrastructure issues. Engineers emphasized that New York skyscrapers are made of high-strength materials and designed to sway slowly to withstand impacts. Even the delicately placed eggs in a sculpture at a Chinatown art gallery remained unharmed during the quake.
