Zelensky extends Ukraine’s martial law by 90 days
With the war in Ukraine showing little to no signs of slowing down anytime soon, Volodymyr Zelensky has moved to extend his nation’s martial law by 90 days
The required documents have now been sent to the Ukrainian parliament for consideration, requiring approval by at least half of all lawmakers.
The first round of martial law was initiated on February 24, the day Putin declared war over the country.
This marks the beginning of a new stage of the conflict, with Ukraine’s defence minister hoping to arm one million fighters – as the nation prepares for the long haul.
So what does a martial law ruling actually mean for Ukrainians?
Well, it gives those in positions of military leadership more power to intervene in the lives of civilians, introducing curfews, conducting searches of private property without notice and even banning travel.
Residents also lose a number of fundamental rights including the right to receive education, the right to work and freedom of movement.
Men aged between 18 and 60 have also been banned from leaving the country.

Federal Reserve holds interest rates steady, balancing inflation and jobs, as some governors advocate for a cut.
The Federal Reserve has opted to keep interest rates unchanged, marking the first pause since July. Officials are showing little urgency to resume cuts, even after previous rate reductions.
Two Fed governors opposed the decision, calling for a quarter-point cut, highlighting ongoing debates within the rate-setting committee, which includes both appointed governors and regional bank presidents.
Concerns over the job market and persistent inflation continue to weigh heavily on the Fed’s policy decisions, leaving economists and investors closely watching the next moves.
