Russia strikes nine Ukrainian regions as strain grows between Zelenskyy and Trump

Russian attacks struck nine regions of Ukraine overnight, officials said on Friday, damaging homes, causing emergency power outages for hundreds of thousands of households and wounding at least 15 people. Four people were injured in the Odessa region, Ukraine's state emergency service said, adding that an energy infrastructure facility was damaged while a manufacturing plant producing household goods caught fire. A subsequent attack Friday morning damaged seven private residential buildings, and a separate drone strike hit a private business in Zaporizhia. Ukrainian civilians are paying a high price for the escalating Russian attacks, the United Nations Human Rights Office in Kyiv said in a monthly report published on Friday. The report said at least 328 civilians were killed and 2,105 wounded last month, a total that is 85 percent higher than in September last year, noting that intensifying Russian attacks in October have already killed dozens of civilians, including children.
