Russia Resumes Strikes On Kyiv After Three-Day Pause
· World · NDTV, France 24, New York Times
Russia resumed drone attacks on the Boryspil and Fastiv districts near Kyiv on Monday following the expiration of a three-day halt in strikes. The pause was originally ordered by President Vladimir Putin during a weekend visit to the region by US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. The Kyiv city military administration issued an air raid alert and advised residents to seek shelter as the strikes recommenced. Witkoff stated that discussions held with both Russian and Ukrainian officials showed progress toward potential three-way peace talks. The State Emergency Service of Ukraine confirmed the resumption of hostilities via a Telegram update.
Why it matters
The resumption of strikes signals a return to active conflict after a brief diplomatic window, directly impacting the safety of civilians in Kyiv and the viability of ongoing peace negotiations.
