Russian missiles and drones killed one person and wounded 22 in Kyiv overnight into Thursday, hours after the Kremlin agreed to restart peace negotiations.
Russian attacks on Ukraine's capital Kyiv with ballistic missiles and drones killed one person and wounded 22 overnight into Thursday, according to Ukrainian authorities. The strikes came hours after the Kremlin agreed to restart U.S.-brokered talks aimed at ending the war. The attack damaged homes, transportation infrastructure and other civilian sites in several districts of the city, Ukraine's State Emergency Service said.
In the Dniprovskyi district, on the eastern bank of the Dnipro River, one person was killed and six were wounded, including a child, as fires broke out. Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed 'in principle' to resume three-way negotiations involving Russia, the United States and Ukraine after 10 November, following a meeting with U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff in St. Petersburg, according to Kremlin foreign affairs adviser Yuri Ushakov. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy backed the push for new talks, but expressed caution, saying 'We'll see what happens this time' shortly before missile alerts sounded over Kyiv.
