Russia's massive attack on Kyiv kills at least one ahead of Trump-Zelensky peace talks

Russia’s massive attack on Kyiv kills at least one ahead of Trump-Zelensky peace talks

https://www.cnn.com/2025/12/26/europe/zelensky-trump-talks-ukraine-russia-intl

Russia carried out a large-scale overnight attack on Kyiv after Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky said he plans to meet his US counterpart Donald Trump in Florida Sunday, as efforts continue to end the nearly four-year war in Eastern Europe.

The aerial attack killed at least one person – a 71-year-old – and injured 32 more, including two children, according to Kyiv police.

Kyiv’s mayor Vitali Klitschko said more than 2,600 residential buildings are currently without heating, as well as 187 kindergartens, 138 schools and 22 social institutions in the capital, amid freezing temperatures.

Speaking on board a plane bound for the United States Saturday, Zelensky said he would be looking for a signal during talks with Trump that Ukraine would receive legally binding security guarantees as part of any peace deal.
