The reactions to the Trump administration’s decision to pause some weapons shipments to Ukraine couldn’t be more illustrative of the conflict: welcomed by the Kremlin, branded “inhumane” by Kyiv.

Russia pummeled Kyiv with the largest drone attack of the war, hours after President Donald Trump spoke to Russia's Vladimir Putin, officials said.

Ukraine said it struck a Russian air base on Saturday, while Russia continued to attack Ukraine with hundreds of drones overnight as part of a stepped-up bombing campaign that has dashed hopes for a breakthrough in efforts to end the more than 3-year-old war.

Ukraine said Saturday it struck a Russian airbase that military officials called a "home base" of some fighter jets.

A Ukrainian drone strike targeted a warehouse in Russia that stored fighter jets, bombs and other military assets, Ukraine's General Staff has said. The Borisoglebsk airfield in Russia's Voronezh Oblast was struck overnight, and imagery shared on social media showed the fiery aftermath of the attacks.
