Russia launches missile strikes on Kyiv after signaling willingness for peace talks

Russia fired ballistic missiles and drones at Kyiv overnight on Thursday, killing at least one person and wounding 22 others. The attack hit homes, hospitals, and transport links across several parts of the city. In the Dniprovskyi district, six people were hurt, including a child. The strikes came just hours after the Kremlin said Russia was ready to restart peace talks with Ukraine and the United States after November 10. U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff had met President Putin in St. Petersburg on Wednesday and President Zelenskyy the day before. President Trump said the world was closer to ending the war than ever before. Zelenskyy supported the idea of new talks but was careful not to show too much confidence.
