Russian strikes hit Kyiv airports ahead of Trump envoys' visit

bienpublic.com (French)

Russian strikes targeted Kyiv's two airports overnight, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said, calling them a demonstrative response to the planned visit of US envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff. The Trump emissaries arrived in Moscow on Saturday for talks before traveling to Kyiv on Sunday, a first for their mediation efforts. Zelensky suggested they might fly into Kyiv, which would be exceptional since Ukrainian airspace has been closed since the 2022 Russian invasion. Trump said the envoys carry a peace proposal, without specifying if it involves territorial concessions. A separate Russian attack on Kamianske killed at least five people early Saturday.
