Ukraine Drone Strike Sparks Diplomatic Push | Philadelphia News

A Russian drone slammed into Ukraine’s security headquarters in Kyiv, injuring 12 and marking a chilling escalation as peace talks loom. President Zelensky confirmed the strike targeted the SBU chief’s office, while Ukraine’s foreign minister labeled it a major provocation. U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are set to visit Moscow and Kyiv this weekend carrying a peace proposal — their first trip to Kyiv — though Russia hasn’t confirmed the Moscow stop. Zelensky expects them Sunday and says Ukraine will pause airstrikes during talks, urging Russia to do the same. Meanwhile, Russia retaliated with overnight strikes in Odesa, Dnipro, and Kyiv, killing and injuring civilians. Ukraine responded by hitting Russian oil depots in Sochi and Sirius, sparking nationwide disruptions and prompting Putin to order state seizure of critical infrastructure if owners fail to protect it.
