US envoys Witkoff and Kushner land in Moscow for Ukraine peace talks
US special envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner have arrived in Moscow for talks aimed at ending Russia's war in Ukraine, with a visit to Kyiv planned for Sunday. The diplomatic push comes as mutual attacks continue. The envoys will meet Russian presidential adviser Kirill Dmitriyev, according to Reuters. President Donald Trump said they carry a proposal to end the war but gave no details. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed this marks the first US envoy visit to Kyiv. Former Ukrainian Foreign Minister Vadim Prystaiko expressed skepticism, noting Russia insists on recognizing annexed territories as Russian. Russian strikes hit Kyiv-area airports and a Dnipro steel plant, killing five, while Ukraine reported downing 53 drones and five deaths in Russian-controlled Luhansk. The IAEA announced a local ceasefire to restore power to the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, which risks blackout within days.
