Russia resumes air attacks on Kyiv on Tuesday after a brief pause that coincides with the visit of U.S. peace negotiators. Multiple sources report that the strikes involve drones and missiles, striking across the Ukrainian capital and causing fires.
France 24 reports two people are killed as a result of the renewed attacks, while Japan Today reports a higher death toll of five. Both outlets describe an interruption in attacks before the resumption, linking the timing to the arrival or movement of U.S. envoys. The coverage relies on on-the-ground reporting from Kyiv and updates on casualties and damage, though figures differ between outlets.
The reports do not indicate a specific operational or political change beyond the timing, but present the attack resumption as occurring immediately after the pause associated with the U.S. visit. Authorities in Ukraine are not quoted in the provided excerpts, and no claims about the attackers’ intent are included beyond the timing described by the outlets.
