Authorities demand evacuation of Kherson residents due to Russian attacks

RTP Notícias28 August 2026 at 06:30

The authorities in Kherson, southern Ukraine, made an urgent appeal to residents to evacuate the city. The request is due to the escalation of Russian airstrikes that have been affecting the region.

The attacks represent a significant threat to the city's essential infrastructure. There is a risk that Kherson will be left without electricity and heating for a prolonged period.

The humanitarian situation in the region has deteriorated considerably with the intensification of bombings, leading authorities to take preventive measures to protect the civilian population.

Economic pressure and nuclear issue are key factors after six months of attritional war in the Middle East

Six months after the joint attack by the United States and Israel on Iran, which killed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and struck nuclear infrastructure, the war has entered a new phase where Washington replaces military strikes with economic pressure and naval blockade, while Tehran maintains the Strait of Hormuz as its main leverage. The article analyzes six key factors: the economic war through sanctions and isolation (with China as the main target, responsible for 80% of Iranian oil exports); the Hormuz blockade, where only ten ships pass daily compared to the usual 130; diplomacy mediated by Pakistan and Oman; the unresolved nuclear issue; the military and industrial capacity of both sides; and the November US elections, with Trump's approval at historic lows and only 31% support for the war. The article concludes that the political and economic cost of maintaining the conflict may increase precisely when Trump needs electoral support most.
