Russian strikes kill 26 in Ukraine after longest ceasefire ends
Russian airstrikes in southern Ukraine killed at least 26 people, including civilians and emergency workers, shortly after a ceasefire ended. The attacks targeted a school distributing humanitarian aid in Zaporizhzhia, with Ukrainian President Zelensky condemning the strikes as a setback for peace efforts. The ceasefire, brokered by US First Lady Melania Trump, was the longest since the war began in 2022, allowing for humanitarian missions. Following the ceasefire, accusations arose that Russia fortified its positions. Both nations reported cyberattacks on their emergency alert systems after the truce ended, complicating the situation further.
