Russia has been bombarded in the biggest Ukrainian drone attack of the war, Moscow officials have said, on the same day as crunch talks are set to be held between Kyiv and the United States.

The Russian Defence Ministry said air defences shot down 337 Ukrainian drones over 10 Russian regions overnight, a record high, as Ukraine hit back at a series of brutal recent attacks launched by Moscow.

At least one Russian civilian has been killed and several injured, with dramatic footage showing fires raging from the exploding drones including in high rise residential buildings near Moscow.

    This is what always happens when we stop arming/funding right-wing extremist groups. They make things a million times worse.

    Zelenskyy would rather start WW3 than hold elections. Completely psychotic.

      How can you all contort yourself into a pretzel to somehow make Zelensky the bad guy? It’s like you forgot who and how this was started.

      Which portion of your country would you give up to an invading country?

            nothing about this or ukraine’s situation is fair.

            nato is a threat to russia, ukraine was fooled into thinking that they could join nato so the russians responded like how americans responded to cuba or mexico, or agentina, or chile when they tried to join the russians or peru or bolivia or paraguay when they try to join china.

            russia and nato are dominant powers for now and like all dominant powers in the past; they get to dictate what other countries can and can’t do; it’s all totally unfair and contortions aren’t needed to understand this fact.
