Russian ballistic missiles struck the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, shortly after US peace negotiators departed the city on Tuesday. Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported that six people were injured and numerous buildings sustained damage, including a five-story apartment building and a three-story residential block, as a result of falling debris from the explosions.
The Kyiv Military Administration advised residents to seek shelter due to the ongoing attacks. Simultaneously, Poland initiated military aviation operations to safeguard its airspace, as the risk of a potential violation loomed. This came as the Trump administration, led by Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, concluded their meetings with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy on Sunday, leading to the resumption of Russia's attacks following a four-and-a-half-year conflict in Ukraine.
In Russia, Ukrainian drones caused damage to civilian infrastructure and injuries in Saratov, a city located near a significant oil refinery operated by the state company Rosneft, and other industrial and military facilities.
