  • Ukraine attacks Russian nuclear complacency bombers.
  • Seven killed, 69 injured in Bryansk, says that Russia.
  • Russia is launching the largest war drone attack.

On the eve of peace talks, Ukraine and Russia have greatly accelerated war with one of the greatest drone battles in their conflict, a Russian road bridge exploded on a passenger train and an ambitious attack against nuclear accentuated bombers in Siberia.

After days of uncertainty as to whether Ukraine would assist there or not, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said that the Minister of Defense, Rustem Umerov, would sit with Russian officials in the second round of direct peace talks on Istanbul on Monday.

The first round of the talks more than a week ago gave the greatest exchange of prisoners of the war – but no sense of consensus on how to stop fights.

In the midst of peace talks, however, there was a lot of war.

At least seven people were killed and 69 injured when a road bridge in the Russian Bryansk region, a neighboring Ukraine, was exploded on a traveler to Moscow with 388 people on board. No one has yet claimed responsibility.

Ukraine attacked Sunday in Siberia, the long -range Russian bombers with full storage in a military base in Siberia, said a Ukrainian intelligence manager, the first attack of this type so far from front lines more than 4,300 km (at 2,670 miles).

The manager said that the operation involved hiding drones loaded with explosives inside the roofs of wooden hangars and loading them on trucks that have been taken to the perimeter of the air bases.

In total, 41 Russian war planes were affected, the official said.

Russia and Ukraine intensify war against peace talks

The Russian Defense Ministry recognized on the telegram messaging application that Ukraine had launched drone strikes against Russian military aerodromes in five regions on Sunday.

He said the attacks have pushed the attacks in all regions except two – Murmansk in the far north and Irkutsk in Siberia – where “the launch of FPV drones from an area near the aerodromes has led to several planes.

The fires were extinguished without victims. Some people involved in the attacks had been held, said the ministry.

Russia has launched 472 drones to Ukraine overnight, said Ukraine Air Force, the highest total of war so far. Russia also launched seven missiles, Air Force said.

Russia said it had progressed more deeply in the Ukraine Sumy region, and the Open Source pro-Ukrainian cards showed that Russia had taken 450 square km of Ukrainian land in May, its fastest monthly advance in at least six months.

US President Donald Trump demanded that Russia and Ukraine make peace and he threatened to get away from it if they do not do so – potentially by pushing responsibility for supporting Ukraine on the shoulders of European powers – which have much less money and weapons of weapons much smaller than the United States.

According to Trump’s envoy, Keith Kellogg, the two parties would present their respective documents in Türkiye describing their ideas for terms of peace, although it is clear that after three years of intense war, Moscow and Kyiv remain distant.

Putin ordered tens of thousands of soldiers to invade Ukraine in February 2022 after eight years of fighting in eastern Ukraine between the separatists supported by Russia and the Ukrainian troops. The United States said more than 1.2 million people had been killed and injured during the war since 2022.

Trump called Putin “crazy” and reprimanded Zelenskiy in public in the oval office, but the American president also said that he thought that peace was feasible and that Putin delays, he could impose difficult sanctions on Russia.

In June of last year, Putin established her opening mandates for an immediate end to war: Ukraine must abandon its NATO ambitions and withdraw all its troops from the entire territory of four Ukrainian regions claimed and mainly controlled by Russia.

Ukrainian negotiators in Istanbul would present the Russian side a roadmap proposed to reach a lasting peace regulation, according to a copy of the document seen by Reuters.

According to the document, there would be no restrictions on the military force of Ukraine after the conclusion of a peace agreement, no international recognition of Russian sovereignty on parts of Ukraine taken by the forces of Moscow and repairs for Ukraine.

The document also said that the current location of the front line would be the starting point for negotiations on the territory.

Russia currently controls a little less than a fifth of Ukraine, or about 113,100 square km, about the same size as the US Ohio state.
