Russian forces conducted a large-scale missile and drone strike against Ukraine, targeting energy facilities and other areas, including the city of Dobropillya, resulting in significant casualties and damage.

The U.S. suspension of military aid and intelligence sharing has significantly hampered Ukraine's ability to defend against Russian attacks, particularly impacting its access to satellite imagery crucial for tracking and responding to Russian strikes.

European Union leaders have agreed to increase military spending to potentially support Ukraine further, while President Trump has suggested imposing additional sanctions on Russia to pressure it into peace talks.

There have been mentions of new North Korean troops bolstering Russia's military efforts, though specific details are not provided in the current context.
