Russian Drone Attacks Hit Dnipro and Kyiv Region as War Enters Day 1716

Russian drone attacks targeted Dnipro and Kyiv region on November 5, causing explosions and a large fire at warehouses in Sofiyivska Borshchahivka, as Ukraine enters day 1716 of the full-scale war. Power outage schedules are expanding across more Ukrainian regions due to continued Russian strikes. Ukraine is preparing for negotiations with the US and Russia in Abu Dhabi, while Democrats in the US Congress may secure a new aid package for Ukraine and potentially override a Trump veto. In Brussels, Ukrainian officials discussed the Prosperity Plan for post-war reconstruction and 2027 financial needs with EU, US, UK, France, Germany, NATO, World Bank, and BlackRock representatives. Further talks on security guarantees are scheduled for the following day.
