Russian strikes on Monday resulted in at least ten fatalities, with six deaths specifically reported in Dnipro, according to local authorities. An overnight aerial assault on Kyiv also caused at least two injuries. These attacks led to power disruptions across the Sumy, Donetsk, Kharkiv, and Zaporizhzhia regions. Concurrently, Ukrainian forces asserted they had struck two oil refineries and a pumping station near Moscow. Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin reiterated his readiness to engage in discussions with American representatives, stating, "We are ready to continue negotiations and the discussion of all details," once the United States is less focused on Iran.
