Russia launched a massive drone attack with 149 drones to Ukraine from Saturday to Sunday, according to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who said he had killed 57 while 67 came out of the radar.
The eastern city of Pavlohrad in the Dnipropetrovsk region, often targeted throughout the conflict, was in heavy bombardment. Regional governor Serhii Lysak confirmed that an elderly man was killed and a 14 -year -old girl injured in attacks.
Further west, in Dnipro, the mayor of the city reported significant damage, with at least 150 windows in high -rise residential buildings broken during night strikes. Large quantities of debris have been dispersed in the affected areas.
One person was injured in drone attacks against the Odesa region and another in the city of Zhytomyr. Four people were injured in a Russian air strike in the city of Kherson on Sunday morning.
Six regions were affected by strikes – Zytomyr, Dnipropetrovsk, Odesa, Sumy, Donetsk and Cherkasy, according to Ukrainian officials.
Meanwhile, the Russian Defense Ministry published images on Sunday, claiming to display striking Ukrainian positions located on the “right bank of the Dnipro river”.
On Saturday, Russia also declared that it has found full control over its Kursk region, which the Ukrainian forces seized in a surprise foray last August. Ukrainian officials, however, rejected the complaint.
Trump is back on the optimism of the peace agreement
The same day, US President Donald Trump said he doubts Putin wanted to end the three -year war in Ukraine, expressing a new skepticism about the prospects for a peace agreement. One day earlier, Trump said Ukraine and Russia were “very close to an agreement”.
“There was no reason why Putin pulled missiles in civil, cities and cities, in recent days,” said Trump on social networks, returning to the United States after having attended the funeral of Pope Francis in the Vatican, where he briefly met the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Trump also referred to new sanctions against Russia.
Their meeting on the sidelines of the funeral was the first face -to -face meeting between the two leaders since a stormy argument at the White House in February.
The Russian Defense Ministry said on Sunday that the air defenses had shot down five Ukrainian drones in the Bryansk border region, as well as three drones during the Crimean Peninsula, which was illegally annexed by Russia in 2014.
In occupied Donetsk, the mayor of Horlivka said five people had been injured by Ukrainian bombing.
