Russia launched an intensified bombing campaign against Ukraine just hours after Donald Trump’s special envoy concluded meetings with Vladimir Putin in Moscow. The escalation comes as Trump suggested he could meet directly with the Russian president as early as next week, raising questions about the timing of the renewed aggression.
According to The Daily Express, Putin’s forces targeted multiple Ukrainian cities in what appears to be a coordinated effort to break civilian morale and weaken public support for the war. The attacks focused heavily on Kherson, a strategically important city that has faced repeated Russian bombardment since its liberation by Ukrainian forces in November 2022.
