Moscow said a Ukrainian drone attack targeted a residence of President Vladimir V. Putin, which Ukraine denied, accusing the Kremlin of fabricating an excuse not to make peace.

Russia and Ukraine on Monday remained far apart on territorial issues that are blocking a peace deal, despite progress on security guarantees for Kyiv at talks between U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

The talks come after days of heavy Russian missile and drone attacks and as negotiators say a U.S.-backed peace plan is nearing completion.

The Ukrainian president noted that “these are some of the most active diplomatic days of the year right now" in an X post.

A historic theater in the Russian-occupied Ukrainian city of Mariupol has opened its doors more than three years after it was pummeled in a Russian airstrike that killed hundreds of civilians sheltering inside.

Rep. Mike Turner's response came after ABC host Jonathan Karl grilled him over Trump blaming Ukraine for initiating the war with Russia.
