At least four people were killed and six others injured in Russian attacks across Ukraine over the past day, regional officials reported on March 26.

Ukraine's air defenses intercepted 56 of the 117 Russian drones launched overnight, including Shahed-type attack drones. Another 48 drones reportedly disappeared from radars before reaching their targets, likely acting as decoys to overwhelm Ukraine's air defenses.

Ukrainian anti-aircraft missile units, electronic warfare systems, aviation, and mobile fire groups repelled the attack.

In Donetsk Oblast, three residents were killed: two in Kurtivka and one in Pokrovsk. Another three people were injured, Governor Vadym Filashkin said.

A 63-year-old man was killed in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast as a result of artillery strikes and kamikaze drone attacks, Governor Serhii Lysak wrote.

In Kherson Oblast, three people were injured as Russian forces attacked social infrastructure and residential areas, damaging two high-rise buildings and 12 houses, Governor Oleksandr Prokudin reported.

A Russian attack on the town of Okhtyrka in Sumy Oblast damaged two apartment buildings, four shops, an administrative building, several cars, outbuildings, and market kiosks. According to the regional military administration, there were no casualties.

Russia may be ‘dragging their feet’ on Ukraine peace deal, Trump says
Asked by a reporter whether he believes Russia “wants to see an end” to the full-scale war, U.S. President Donald Trump said, “I don’t know. I mean, I’ll let you know at a certain point. But I think that Russia wants to see an end to it, but it could be they’re dragging their feet.”

Independent journalism needs a community —
not a paywall.

We’re working hard to show the world the truth of Russia’s brutal war — and we’re keeping it free for everyone, because reliable information should be available to all.

Our goal: reach 20,000 members to prove independent journalism can survive without paywalls, billionaires, or compromise. Will you help us do it?
