Russia launched war's largest drone attack ahead of Putin-Trump call, Ukraine says

Ukrainian officials said Saturday night's strikes showed Russia had no intention of stopping the war, despite international pressure for a ceasefire. "For Russia, the negotiations [on Friday] in Istanbul are just a pretence. Putin wants war," said Andriy Yermak, a top aide to the Ukrainian president. Following the talks in Turkey, Trump had suggested there would be no progress towards peace until he and Putin meet face-to-face. The US president has proposed a 30-day ceasefire agreement and threatened tougher sanctions if Russia doesn't comply.
