The death toll from a Russian airstrike on November 2 in the village of Komyshuvakha, Zaporizhzhia region, has risen to 53, with about 50 people still missing, according to Ukrainian emergency officials. The updated figures were announced by Yulia Barysheva, spokesperson for the State Emergency Service in Zaporizhzhia, during an interministerial press conference. Separately, Russia's Defense Ministry said it struck an electricity storage facility in Bila Tserkva, Kyiv region, claiming it supplied Ukraine's military-industrial complex. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas stressed Europe must be included in any Russia-U.S. negotiations on Ukraine, citing past failed agreements without European support. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Europeans remain indecisive about who can represent them in talks with Moscow.
