Russia Bombards Ukraine with Relentless Attacks

The alleged peace deal may not be as strong as some suggest

Ukrainian authorities reported a major Russian missile and drone strike on targets across the country on Tuesday night, with a top aide to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy demanding an immediate end to Moscow's barrages as a condition for any peace deal to end Russia's three-year-old invasion.

Ukraine's air force said Russia launched 181 strike drones and three missiles into the country in the latest attack. The air force said 115 drones were shot down and 55 lost in location without causing damage.

The barrage coincided with President Donald Trump's address to a joint session of Congress, in which he said a potential peace between the two nations would be "beautiful." The strikes began before Trump entered Congress and continued into the morning, indicated by Ukrainian air force alerts.
