Russia resumes strikes on Kyiv after three-day halt
Moscow halted strikes on Kyiv for three days as US President Donald Trump's envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner visited the Russian and Ukrainian capitals over the weekend.
Kyiv experienced a resurgence of Russian airstrikes on Monday, following a three-day pause in attacks that coincided with a visit by US envoys to Ukraine. The emergency service of Ukraine announced that Russian forces targeted the Boryspil and Fastiv districts using drones during the lull in hostilities. Ukrainian officials declared an air raid alert in the capital due to the risk of enemy drone strikes, urging residents to seek shelter.
Russian state news agency TASS confirmed the end of the ceasefire. US envoy Steve Witkoff expressed optimism regarding progress in discussions with Ukraine and Russia, hinting at the potential revival of three-way peace talks to resolve the ongoing conflict.
