  "account": "Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned airlines operating in Russia that drone operations would create unsafe conditions in the airspace. Russian President Vladimir Putin dismissed Zelenskyy's comments as \"a declaration of state terrorism.\" Ukraine has been defending itself against Russia's full-scale invasion since February 2022, using drones to strike targets deep inside Russia. Russia has retaliated, targeting Ukraine's energy infrastructure, including a thermal power plant in Odesa and a Novatek oil complex in Leningrad. Kyiv and Moscow have been exchanging military attacks, focusing on energy infrastructure. NATO has scrambled military aircraft due to a possible air threat near the Russian border in Latvia. Germany pledged a \"clear-cut response\" to an explosives-laden drone incident near a Ukrainian cargo plane, emphasizing that they stand by Ukraine and will not be intimidated. Both sides have intensified attacks in the Black Sea, a crucial grain shipping route, driving global grain prices higher.",
