Ukrainian Strike Targets Key Russian Missile Facility in Deep-Range Operation

    An employee controls an unmanned ground vehicle during an exhibition of Ukrainian drone makers, amid Russia's attack on Ukraine, in an undisclosed location Ukraine says it carried out a long‑range strike against a major Russian ballistic missile production site, marking one of Kyiv’s deepest attacks inside Russian territory since the full‑scale invasion began. According to Ukrainian security officials, the operation targeted a facility involved in manufacturing components for Russia’s Iskander missile systems—munitions frequently used against Ukrainian cities. While Moscow has not confirmed the strike, Russian regional authorities reported explosions and a subsequent fire at an industrial site. Kyiv has increasingly relied on domestically produced long‑range drones and missiles as Western military aid faces delays, and Ukrainian officials framed the attack as part of a broader effort to degrade Russia’s ability to wage war.

Slow-Roasted Salmon with French Herb Salsa

 


Hosting made easy and elegant: let this slow-roasted salmon be the stress-free star of your brunch or buffet.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 pounds salmon fillet, skin on
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 small shallot, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon very finely chopped fresh chervil (okay to substitute more parsley if you can’t find it)
  • 1 tablespoon very finely chopped fresh tarragon
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 225°F and set an oven rack in the middle position.
  2. Place the salmon on a baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle the salt evenly over top. Slide the pan into the oven and roast for 40 to 50 minutes, until the fish begins to flake in the thickest part of the filet when poked with a knife or your finger. (Because this method is so gentle on its proteins, the fish will appear translucent even when it’s cooked.) Using a small spoon, scrape off any white coagulated proteins that may have formed on the salmon.
  3. Break the salmon into large, rustic pieces and spoon the French herb salsa (below) over top. This dish can be served hot, cold, or room temperature.
  4. In a small bowl, combine the shallot and vinegar and let sit for 15 minutes to macerate.
  5. In a separate small bowl, combine the herbs, olive oil, salt, and a few grinds of black pepper.
  6. Just before serving, use a slotted spoon to add the shallot (but not the vinegar, yet) to the herb oil. Stir, taste, and add the vinegar as needed (I usually add 2 to 3 teaspoons). Taste and adjust salt, if necessary.

Make-Ahead Instructions: The salmon can be cooked 1 day ahead of time, covered with plastic wrap, and refrigerated. The French herb salsa can be made, covered, and refrigerated up to 2 days ahead of time.
