Delegations from Ukraine and Russia are slated to meet on Monday, following a surge in Russian drone attacks that killed seven people in Ukraine. President Zelenskyy called for intensified international pressure on Russia before peace discussions in Saudi Arabia. Ukrainian officials noted the extensive drone and missile attacks this week, emphasizing the urgent need for new strategies to halt hostilities. Despite the grim situation, U.S. envoy Witkoff remains cautiously optimistic about potential peace, suggesting that Russian leadership may be open to negotiations.
President Zelenskyy stated, 'This week alone, more than 1,580 guided aerial bombs, almost 1,100 strike drones, and 15 missiles of various types were used against our people.'
U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff expressed optimism that 'Russian President Vladimir Putin wanted peace,' ahead of high-stakes peace talks.
