Recent Russian drone attacks on Ukraine have left at least seven dead, including a five-year-old girl, prompting President Zelenskyy to call for increased pressure on Moscow ahead of planned peace talks in Saudi Arabia. The attacks occurred just before Ukrainian and Russian officials meet with U.S. mediators for indirect negotiations. Ukraine's air force reported intercepting 97 out of 147 launched drones. Amid ongoing violence, Zelenskyy highlighted the unsustainable nature of daily attacks, stressing the need for new strategies to halt the conflict and protect civilians. This week's military actions underscore the urgent need for effective diplomatic efforts.
