Zelensky: 33 Dead in Russian Aid Site Strike

A devastating Russian attack on a former school building in the village of Komyshuvakha killed 33 people and left more than 50 trapped under rubble on Tuesday, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Ukrainian officials stated that the site served as an active aid distribution point.

The bombardment ended a brief regional ceasefire and dashed hopes for an immediate breakthrough ahead of upcoming trilateral negotiations in Abu Dhabi.

Speaking in Berlin alongside German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, Zelensky urged international leaders to secure a permanent peace, while Merz reiterated that any future summits must include Ukraine.

Despite ongoing Russian strikes on critical energy infrastructure and Kharkiv medical facilities, representatives from Ukraine, the United States, and Russia plan to convene in the United Arab Emirates next week for their first high-level talks since February.
