- Kyiv endured massive Russian strikes hours after Putin agreed to fresh peace talks, with renewed negotiations discussed as combat continued.
- Moscow said it had downed more than 800 Ukrainian drones; Ukraine also sent drones toward Moscow.
Why it matters: The timing is the key contrast: Kyiv was hit hours after Putin agreed to fresh talks, while renewed negotiations were discussed as attacks continued in both directions. For Kyiv, the immediate reality was continued missile strikes; for Moscow, the stated result was downing more than 800 Ukrainian drones, not a halt in fighting.
