Russia pounds Ukraine's capital Kyiv with missiles and drones, hours after agreeing to peace talks

Russian attacks on Kyiv overnight into Thursday left one person dead and 22 injured, Ukrainian authorities said. The strikes used ballistic missiles and drones and hit homes, transport infrastructure and other civilian sites across multiple districts. In the Dniprovskyi district on the east bank of the Dnipro River, a fire broke out and killed one person while six—including a child—were wounded. The timing came hours after the Kremlin agreed to restart U.S.-brokered talks aimed at ending the war. Kremlin adviser Yuri Ushakov said Vladimir Putin agreed “in principle” to resume three-way negotiations after Nov. 10, with Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy urging caution.
