A "two week" deadline imposed by U.S. President Donald Trump to see if Russia is serious about peace in Ukraine has been and gone, with Moscow's escalation of attacks on civilians during this period failing to draw the slightest condemnation from the White House.

Ukrainian officials say three people were killed and 13 were wounded when Russia attacked the country with waves of drones and missiles.

The attack originated from Bryansk, Oryol, Millerovo, Shatalovo, and Primorsko-Akhtarsk in Russia, with Ukrainian air defenses downing 23 drones through direct fire and suppressing or losing track of 20 via electronic warfare.
