"The death toll from a Russian missile attack on Ukraine's port city of Odesa rose from seven to eight, with at least 30 others wounded, according to Ukrainian authorities. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy described the situation in Odesa as harsh and accused Russia of trying to block Kyiv's access to the Black Sea. The Ukrainian leader also said that he is looking to replace the head of the Southern Air Command, Dmytro Karpenko, over the Russian strikes on Odesa."
"Zelenskyy said the United States proposed a new format for talks with Russia, comprised of three-way talks at the level of national security advisers from Ukraine, Russia, and the US. The Ukrainian leader expressed scepticism that the talks would result in anything new, but added that he believes that US-led talks have the best chance of success. He added that he would support trilateral discussions if they led to progress in areas such as prisoner swaps or a meeting of national leaders."
