Kyiv is reeling from a major Russian missile and drone strike that killed 23 people, including four children. As the region observes an official day of mourning, U.S.-led peace negotiations remain at a standstill, prolonging the three-year war.

Kyiv faced its first major combined drone and missile attack in weeks, leaving at least eight people dead and 45 wounded. The assault unfolded early Thursday, intensifying concerns about the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
