Putin’s brutal response to Trump lazy diplomacy attempts breaks war records

Dicey diplomacy in action.

Russia launched its biggest air attack on Ukraine since the war began, with a focus on the capital city Kyiv. The attack came shortly after Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke with U.S. President Donald Trump.

According to The Washington Post, the massive assault filled central Kyiv with heavy smoke as Russian forces struck various targets across the city. Ukraine’s defense systems worked to counter the incoming threats, but the scale of the attack was unprecedented.

Putin’s brutal response to Trump diplomacy breaks war records as Russian forces unleashed a combination of 539 drones and 11 missiles. Ukraine’s air force confirmed that Kyiv was the “main direction of the strike” in this record-breaking assault.

Russian attacks reach new heights with record-breaking drone and missile strikes

The latest attack broke the previous record set just days ago when Russia launched 537 missiles and drones at Ukraine on Sunday. This quick succession of large-scale attacks shows a clear increase in Russian military aggression.

The timing of the attack, following Putin’s conversation with Trump, suggests no immediate positive outcome from their discussion. Instead, Russia appears to be intensifying its military campaign against Ukraine.

Ukrainian officials are dealing with the aftermath of this massive assault, as emergency services work to address the damage in central Kyiv. The attack’s focus on the capital city demonstrates Russia’s continued strategy of targeting Ukraine’s major urban centers.

The unprecedented scale of this attack, using both drones and missiles, marks a significant escalation in Russia’s air campaign against Ukraine. This development raises concerns about future attacks and the potential for further escalation in the conflict, as Trump’s leadership style continues to face scrutiny from Americans.
