The largest drone strikes since the onset of the war targeted central and eastern Ukraine, occurring shortly after peace talks ended without a ceasefire agreement.
Ukraine reported that Russia carried out its largest drone attack of the ongoing war early Sunday, targeting regions including Kyiv, Dnipro, and Donetsk. The attack, involving 273 drones, resulted in the death of a 28-year-old woman in the Kyiv region and injuries to at least three others, including a child.
Ukraine’s air force confirmed that 88 drones were destroyed overnight while 128 simulator drones failed to reach their targets. Air raid warnings lasted for nine hours, with air defense systems actively responding to the strikes. Residential buildings in the Obukhiv district near Kyiv were damaged, and fragments of drones struck non-residential buildings in the capital.
The attack followed peace talks in Istanbul on Friday, where no ceasefire agreement was reached. However, both sides agreed to exchange 1,000 prisoners of war each. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned the attacks, urging stronger sanctions on Russia. U.S. President Donald Trump plans to hold discussions with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Zelenskyy on Monday.
