Ukraine says hopes of 'progress toward peace' knocked by attack on aid distribution centre

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said any hopes for progress towards peace after last week's localized ceasefire had been undermined by deadly Russian strikes on an aid distribution center in southeastern Ukraine. The aerial bomb attack in the region of Zaporizhia killed at least 26 people, including two rescue workers and four police officers. On Monday, Russia resumed attacks on Ukraine's Kherson region after the end of the ceasefire in the area. The truce had been brokered by U.S. First Lady Melania Trump and was the longest pause in fighting between the neighbors. If Russia really wanted de-escalation, then now, after Olesya... There was a moment when it was possible to continue the humanitarian circle. We proposed it, but Russia continues to kill. On its end, Russia said it downed nearly 500 drones heading for Moscow overnight. The latest strikes come as the United States announced Ukrainian, Russian and U.S. officials will hold trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi next week.
