At least seven people were killed and several others injured in Russian drone attacks on Ukraine, as President Volodymyr Zelensky urged his Western allies to pressure Moscow to halt its assaults ahead of peace talks in Saudi Arabia.

These attacks come just before indirect negotiations set for Monday to discuss a cessation of attacks on energy facilities and infrastructure.

Meanwhile, the Third Assault Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces announced the recapture of the town of Nadiya in the Luhansk region.
