Russian drones struck an industrial enterprise in Bucha district near Kyiv overnight, setting warehouses ablaze with no casualties reported, as Ukrainian media said children were among the wounded in wider attacks on Dnipro and Odesa.
Why it matters: The overnight barrage hit as Zelensky offered Moscow a mutual halt to energy-infrastructure strikes, testing whether either side is willing to de-escalate the exchange that has defined the fall campaign.
