Russia again pummels Ukraine after rare pause in fighting in Kherson

After a brief ceasefire, intense fighting resumed between Russia and Ukraine, resulting in numerous casualties. Russia launched strikes across Ukraine, particularly targeting Zaporizhzhia, where civilians were killed while seeking humanitarian aid. The ceasefire had allowed for a humanitarian mission to Oleshky, but hopes for peace were dashed as attacks escalated. Ukrainian officials reported significant damage and casualties from Russian strikes, including on medical facilities. Meanwhile, military exercises involving European troops are planned in support of Ukraine, and diplomatic talks are set to resume next week. President Zelensky condemned the attacks, emphasizing the need for a response to Russia's actions.
