Ukraine-Russia war latest: Kyiv defies Trump with strike on oil refinery deep inside Russia
Ukraine's military had paused its strikes on refineries in response to weeks of pressure from US president
What the coverage shows
Both outlets use the Ukraine war frame, but France 24 is the only one that turns to Tunisia, with a short extract focused on concern there and families searching for answers about men taken into the war. The Independent’s extract is unrelated to Tunisia and instead foregrounds a separate battlefield update about Ukraine’s strikes and pressure from Trump.
