In Ukraine, at least 26 people were killed and many others are missing after a Russian drone and missile attack overnight in the western Ukrainian city of Ternopil. Ukraine’s interior minister Ihor Klymenko said 26 people were still missing after the overnight strikes, including three children.

He added that nearly 100 people had been hurt. Russia launched the attack as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy travelled for talks in Turkey intended to help revive peace negotiations with Russia, after his short tour to European capitals. Zelenskiy urged allies to increase pressure on Russia to end its nearly four-year-old war in Ukraine, including by providing Kyiv with more air-defence missiles.
