Russia launches drone attack on Ukraine during peace talks in Saudi Arabia
Russia launched a significant drone attack on Ukraine, using 176 drones overnight. Ukraine's military reported that 103 drones were shot down, while 67 were likely disrupted by electronic measures. This attack coincided with peace talks in Saudi Arabia. Top US and Russian diplomats met in Riyadh to discuss ending the conflict in Ukraine and restoring relations. Ukraine was not invited to the talks and stated that no peace deal could be made on its behalf. European leaders recently held an emergency summit in Paris, pledging to support Ukraine and enhance defense investments. They emphasized the need for the US to play a key role in any peacekeeping efforts following the war.
