spiegel.de (German)

Russia launched new drone attacks on Kyiv late Monday, striking the Boryspil and Fastiw districts and damaging two residential buildings, according to Ukraine's emergency service. Air raid alerts were issued, and residents were urged to seek shelter. The attacks came shortly after US envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff departed Kyiv following weekend talks with Russian and Ukrainian officials. Witkoff called the negotiations successful and floated the possibility of new trilateral peace talks. The US has been pushing for an end to the conflict, which has lasted over four and a half years, but previous negotiation rounds involving Washington, Moscow, and Kyiv have failed to produce a breakthrough.
