Zelenskiy Accuses Russia of 'Cynical' Strikes Ahead of Trump Talks

Officials in Ukraine said a drone attack on a residential complex in the northern city of Kharkiv killed at least seven people, including a 1-year-old girl. Strikes also hit the southeastern city of Zaporizhzhia, killing three people, they said.

"This was a demonstrative and cynical Russian strike," Zelenskiy wrote on X.

"The Russian war machine continues to destroy lives despite everything," he added. "Putin will commit demonstrative killings to maintain pressure on Ukraine and Europe, as well as to humiliate diplomatic efforts."

After rolling out the red carpet for Russian President Vladimir Putin at a summit in Alaska on Friday, Trump is leaning on Ukraine to accept a peace deal to end Europe's deadliest war in 80 years.
