U.S. President Donald Trump slammed Vladimir Putin after Russia launched what Ukraine says was the largest aerial assault of the war so far, killing at least 12 people, including three children.
“Something has happened to him—he’s gone absolutely crazy,” Trump posted on Truth Social, reacting to the overnight attacks. According to Ukraine’s air force, Russia launched 355 drones and nine cruise missiles, marking the biggest drone attack of the war to date.
Speaking later to reporters in New Jersey, Trump said: “I don’t know what’s wrong with him. What the hell happened to him? He’s killing a lot of people. I’m not happy about that.” He added that new sanctions on Russia are under consideration.
The strikes hit five regions across Ukraine, including residential and industrial sites. A 14-year-old boy was injured in the Odesa region, Ukrainian officials said. It was the third night in a row of heavy Russian aerial attacks.
The Kremlin claimed the strikes were directed at military targets and were in response to Ukrainian attacks on Russian civilian areas.
While Trump criticized Putin, he also took aim at Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, saying, “He is doing his country no favours by talking the way he does. Everything out of his mouth causes problems. I don’t like it, and it better stop.”
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov responded by thanking Trump and the American people for supporting peace talks, but said this is “a very emotional moment” and reactions are “overloaded.”
Zelenskyy did not directly respond to Trump but wrote on X that the world seems more focused on talking to Putin than applying real pressure. He repeated his call for tougher sanctions, saying Russia “can only be restrained by force.”
