Russia Launches 367 Drones, Missiles in Overnight Ukraine Attack Killing 12

President Donald Trump publicly condemned Russian President Vladimir Putin for the recent large-scale bombardment of Ukrainian cities, expressing surprise and dismay at the escalation despite ongoing efforts to broker a ceasefire. Trump, who has maintained a personal rapport with Putin, criticized the attacks that killed at least 12 people and injured dozens, labeling Putin's actions as unacceptable and inconsistent with his expectations. The assault involved a massive strike of 367 drones and missiles targeting Kyiv and other regions, with Ukraine managing to intercept a significant portion of the attacks. These events occurred amid stalled peace negotiations and a prisoner exchange, with Trump declining to impose further sanctions on Russia after Putin refused a ceasefire proposal. Despite Trump's assertions that Putin desires peace, recent developments suggest otherwise, as Russia continues its aggressive military campaign. The situation highlights the complexity and challenges of achieving a resolution to the protracted conflict in Ukraine.
