Russia launched 200 attack drones at Ukraine overnight, the Air Force said Tuesday. Shaheds, including jet-powered, Gerberas, Parodiya decoys. From Oryol, Kursk, Millerovo, occupied Donetsk, Crimea. As of 8 a.m., 187 downed or jammed. Hits at seven locations. Debris at three. The War desk files a bigger swarm than Monday’s 108, and a capital that heard the explosions at 5:34.

In Kyiv, drones hit gas stations in Darnytskyi. Four injured. One man in serious condition. Warehouses in Obolon. In Izyum a 77-year-old man was hurt by a guided bomb. Kapitolivka: three houses. Trump posted Monday that both sides had agreed not to hit energy. Peskov: a nice idea, not a deal. Zelensky: only if America can ensure Russia stops.

So far, no one has seen any genuine willingness on Russia’s part to bring the war to an end.
