Four people died and 34 were wounded, among them five children, when Russia struck Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities overnight. Volodymyr Zelenskyy described a salvo of three ballistic missiles fitted with cluster warheads that detonated in the air, scattering destruction across a radius of 400 metres. The bombardment followed Steve Witkoff's meeting with Vladimir Putin and the release of American Stephen Hubbard, and Zelenskyy said it demonstrated 'no real change' in Moscow's attitude.
Twelve Ukrainian regions were targeted in overnight Russian strikes, with one hitting Kyiv's Pechersk district.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Moscow would study Witkoff's proposals but warned talks would take long.
Russia claims it downed 808 Ukrainian drones, and more than 600 of them were fired toward Moscow.
