  "account": "As the longest truce of the war between Russia and Ukraine came to an end on Sunday, cyber attacks on both sides' emergency warning systems began. The Russian emergencies ministry announced that hackers posted false information on the app designed to warn citizens of incoming threats, while Ukraine suspected its air raid alert system had been compromised. The attack came as US-mediated talks between the two countries were set to resume this month, following a truce brokered by US First Lady Melania Trump that began in early November. The truce enabled a humanitarian mission to the Russian-occupied city of Oleshky, but it ended after Russia refused to extend the agreement. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called for US assistance with powerful Patriot interceptor missiles, while Russian forces on the other side of the Dnipro river have used the truce to gather intelligence and prepare for renewed fighting.",
  "summary": "US-mediated talks between Russia and Ukraine are set to resume this month, having been effectively frozen since February, when the war in Iran broke out.",
