‘US silence encourages Putin’ says Zelenskyy after largest Russian attack to date – Ukraine war live

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is warning that the US and its allies' lack of decisive action is emboldening Vladimir Putin, following Russia's largest aerial assault on Ukraine yet—a barrage of nearly 300 drones and 70 missiles that killed at least 12 people. Putin, meanwhile, is openly discussing plans to carve out a "security buffer zone" inside Ukrainian territory, signaling an escalation in Russia's war aims.
