Rescuers are searching for more than 24 people feared trapped under rubble, after Russian missiles hit a residential block in the eastern Ukrainian town of Chasiv Yar, the regional governor says. Fifteen people are so far confirmed dead from the strike.
TORONTO — Canada said Saturday that it will export a sanctioned Russian gas turbine back to Germany in a decision poised to upset Ukraine, which pressed Ottawa not to skirt the sanctions it has levied on Moscow.
The equipment was being repaired in Montreal when it became stranded because of restrictions that Canada imposed on Russian industry after the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Gazprom, Russia’s state-controlled gas company, cited the missing turbine when it cut flows to Europe last month. “Absent a necessary supply of natural gas, the German economy will suffer very significant hardship,” he said, “and Germans themselves will be at risk of being unable to heat their homes as winter approaches.”
