President Trump said Saturday that it was time for Ukraine to get a new president, suggesting the current leader, Volodymyr Zelenskyy , has not done enough to end his country's war with Russia. "I suggest they get a new leader who can make a deal because he could have made many deals and for some reason he never does," Mr. Trump told reporters as he was leaving the White House for a trip to Tennessee. He also blamed Ukraine's recent strikes on Russian oil refineries for contributing to high diesel prices before the midterm election, despite the ongoing war in Iran .
President Trump spoke with Russian leader Vladimir Putin on Friday to discuss freeing up millions of tons of diesel , but the Russian president also relayed Iran's position on a peace deal to his American counterpart, according to the Kremlin. At least 12 people were killed and 309 others wounded in a strike Saturday on Riyadh's King Khalid International Airport, Saudi officials said.
At least 12 people have been killed and 309 injured in an attack on an airport in the Saudi capital Riyadh, local authorities say, days after Yemen's Houthis claimed similar strikes. The deaths included four Saudis, two people from Bangladesh and one person each from the US, Jordan, Palestine, Syria, Sudan and Egypt, the Saudi civil aviation authority said. Operations at King Khalid International Airport have been suspended. A Saudi-led military coalition has vowed to respond to the attack, which it has blamed on the Houthis and called a "war crime".
Russia has attacked the Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia with five glide bombs, killing at least 20 people including four children, local officials said. The glide bombs hit residential buildings in the southern city on Saturday morning. At least 32 others were injured in the attack, with more still missing and believed to be under the rubble. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the attacks on Zaporizhzhia were Russia expressing "its thanks" for a deal announced by US President Donald Trump last night easing sanctions on Moscow to import Russian diesel.
