Russia has also multiplied its massive strikes on Ukraine for several weeks, often involving hundreds of drones and missiles according to kyiv.
Diplomatic efforts seem to be dead.
Russian President Vladimir Putin claims Kiev that kyiv gives Russia the regions of Donetsk, Lougansk, Kherson and Zaporijjia, whose annexation has been claiming annexation since September 2022, in addition to the Crimea annexed in 2014.
Moscow also demands that Ukraine will give up joining NATO.
Unacceptable conditions for Ukrainian leaders and their Western allies.
Ukraine, for its part, demands that the Russian army withdraw entirely from its territory, occupied at around 20 %.
At least six dead, including a child, in new Russian attacks
An attack on Russian missiles and drones on kyiv left at least six dead and dozens injured Thursday at dawn, a few hours before a crucial vote in the Ukrainian parliament on an anti -corruption bill. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky described the last Russian strikes on Thursday who killed at least six people including a six -year -old child and his mother in kyiv on Thursday.
“Today, the world has once again seen Russia ‘response to our desire for peace, shared with America and Europe. A new murderous spectacle. This is why peace without strength is impossible,” he said on social media.
“This night, the enemy attacked the capital with missiles and drones,” said Interior Minister Igor Klymenko on Telegram, denouncing “a new war crime”.
“One of the missiles affected a residential building: an entire part was destroyed,” he added, adding that two survivors had been extracted from the rubble.
This attack, which targeted a total of 27 places in the capital, left at least two dead and 52 injured, including nine children, said the chief of the capital’s military administration, Timour Tkatchenko.
“This number, unfortunately, will increase,” warned Mr. Tkatchenko on Telegram.
The mayor of kyiv, Vitali Klitschko, said that the breath of the explosions had shattered the windows of the pediatric unit of a hospital, without making any injuries.

Criticized law
This new wave of night strikes against the capital intervened a few hours from a crucial vote in the Parliament to return to a highly criticized law revoking the independence of bodies to combat corruption.
This law passed on July 22 planned to place the National Anti-Corruption Agency (the NABU) and the specialized anti-corruption prosecutor’s office (SAP) directly under the supervision of the Attorney General, itself appointed by the Head of State.
Decreeed by civil society and the European Union, the law thus adopted had caused the first major demonstrations in Ukraine since the start of the Russian invasion in 2022 – hundreds of people were still gathered on Wednesday evening in kyiv, shortly before the bombings.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky finally proposed a new bill restoring the independence of the agencies concerned, which elected officials must examine on Thursday.
The Russian forces have multiplied the deadly attacks in Ukraine in recent days, when the American president Donald Trump gave ten days from Tuesday to his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin to put an end to the conflict under penalty of sanctions.
On Tuesday, three Ukrainian soldiers were killed and 18 injured by a Russian strike against a military training camp.
During the previous night, at least 25 civilians including a pregnant woman and a quizaine of people detained in a penitentiary colony in the Zaporijjia region (south), had lost their lives in Russian bombardments.
