In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin:

• First, Kyiv and the Kremlin traded accusations on Friday of terrorism and deceit over the destruction of a Russian gas transit station near Ukraine’s border, in the latest sign that even a limited ceasefire between the two warring parties will be difficult to maintain despite the Trump administration’s optimism about peace.

• Later in the show, following negotiations with the Trump administration and Qatari officials, the Taliban has released an American hostage after holding him for more than two years in Afghanistan.
