Record Ukrainian drone attack on Moscow kills 3, targets refinery
Ukraine launched a record drone attack on Moscow, targeting a refinery and causing civilian casualties, which appears to be retaliation for Russia's extensive drone and missile strikes on Ukraine. These attacks occurred despite a US-brokered three-day ceasefire announced by Donald Trump, which aimed to coincide with Russia's Victory Day celebrations. Russian President Vladimir Putin had previously suggested the conflict was nearing its end, but the renewed aerial assaults, including over 1,500 drones launched by Russia on Ukraine, have shattered any prospects for immediate peace.
