Kyiv Hit By Barrage of Drone Strikes As Putin Spurns Trump's Truce Bid

Multiple drone strikes hit the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, as Russian President Vladimir Putin rejected US President Donald Trump's offer of a truce between the two nations. The drone attack comes as Putin plans to gather troops near the border, triggering fears of an imminent invasion of Ukraine. Ukrainian officials reported power outages and crashed electricity lines, which Ukrainian police blamed on the Russian invasion. This development poses a significant threat to the fragile Ukraine-Russia ceasefire and sheds light on the worsening Ukraine-Russia relations. With fears of a Russian invasion looming, the situation calls for diplomatic solutions and intensified efforts to resolve the crisis peacefully.
