During a recent Russian attack on Kyiv, a monastery was damaged among other civilian structures. The assault involved 21 ballistic missiles and targeted residential buildings, energy facilities, and transportation infrastructure. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reported casualties, including two deaths and numerous injuries. The attacks occurred shortly after a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, who discussed resuming trilateral talks on ending the war. Despite this, Zelensky emphasized that the attacks indicate no real change in Russia's stance. The Russian defense ministry claimed the strikes targeted military-related facilities and infrastructure.
