The energy ceasefire brokered by U.S. President Donald J. Trump between Russia and Ukraine collapsed overnight, as Russia launched a large-scale, hours-long drone and missile assault on Monday targeting Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities. The attack struck energy infrastructure, including power plants and substations, as well as several high-rise residential buildings in Kyiv and elsewhere across the country, while Russia continued firing drones along with cruise and ballistic missiles.
Trilateral talks between Russia and Ukraine had been scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday in Abu Dhabi, but Monday night’s assault could now jeopardize the negotiations organized by the Trump administration.
