Russia also hit energy facilities and other sites in the Odesa region in southern Ukraine overnight, as Ukrainian forces claim strikes on oil refineries in southern Russia and Tatarstan.

But debate continues on when and where new talks could be scheduled on ending that war.

Meantime, a Russia sanctions bill that's already passed in the Senate could pass this week in the House.

The Carthage case, an alleged scam call center protection racket run out of the prosecutor general's office, keeps widening.

Russia launched another large-scale missile and drone attack on Ukraine on the 1st of September, killing 12 people in Kyiv and the surrounding region, according to Ukrainian authorities.

Six of those killed in Kyiv were railway workers, while strikes also damaged export infrastructure in the Odesa region and temporarily disrupted the Orlovka crossing with Romania.

The attack was the sixth consecutive day of strikes on Kyiv, showing how the air campaign is becoming a sustained pressure on civilian and transport infrastructure rather than a series of isolated attacks.

The scale of the barrage also highlights Ukraine's growing dependence on air defenses as it seeks to protect both its population and vital trade routes.
