Russia and Ukraine resume attacks after US-brokered truce ends

Ukrainian officials said Russia launched a wave of more than 200 attack drones that damaged energy facilities and apartment buildings, killing one person.

KYIV, Ukraine — Russia ended a three-day ceasefire with Ukraine on Tuesday by launching a wave of more than 200 attack drones that damaged energy facilities and apartment buildings, killing one person, Ukrainian officials said. Moscow's army announced Kyiv had also restarted its retaliatory attacks on Russia, saying its air defence units had downed 27 Ukrainian drones after the ceasefire expired. U.S. President Donald Trump had announced the pause on Friday, hours before Russian leader Vladimir Putin presided over a scaled-down military parade in Red Square to mark the anniversary of victory in World War II. AFP journalists in Kyiv heard air sirens and booms echo out over the Ukrainian capital during the attack. "Russia itself chose to end the partial silence that had lasted for several days. Overnight, more than 200 attack drones were launched against Ukraine," President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on social media. He wrote that Russian forces had launched more than 80 aerial bombs near the front and more than 30 air strikes in attacks across seven regions that damaged energy facilities,
