KYIV—Russia killed at least nine people and injured 70 others in an overnight attack on Kyiv, its biggest aerial bombardment of Ukraine’s capital this year, as U.S.-mediated talks to end the war stall.

A Russian attack on a bus in the Ukrainian city of Marhanets in southern Dnipropetrovsk province killed at least 9 people and injured dozens, authorities said.

Vice President JD Vance said it was time for Kyiv and Moscow to accept the Trump administration's ideas for how to end the war in Ukraine or Washington would walk away from peace negotiations.

US Vice-President JD Vance said his country would "walk away" unless Ukraine and Russia agree on a deal, echoing recent comments from US officials. His warning came after London talks between officials from the UK,

London talks aimed at securing a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia have been downgraded and will no longer include US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and special envoy Steve Witkoff. The meeting on Wednesday will instead take place among senior officials from the UK,

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Tuesday that Ukraine would be ready to hold talks with Russia in any format once a ceasefire deal is in place and the fighting has stopped.
