An American man was killed in a Russian attack on the northern Ukrainian city of Chernihiv, where he was seeking medical treatment for his partner. The death of Jim Hill, of Diggs, Idaho, was reported Thursday by his sister. Ukrainian officials reported that 10 people were killed Wednesday in Chernihiv while standing in the bread line. And, here in the US, the House voted overwhelmingly to suspend normal trade relations with Russia and Belarus, preparing for President Joe Biden to enact higher tariffs on more products and further weaken the Russian economy in response to its military assault on Ukraine. The House vote was 424-8. The Senate is expected to take up the measure soon for final passage.
