Russian strikes kill 26 in Ukraine as rare ceasefire collapses

Source Summary

Russia conducted strikes on a village in southern Ukraine on Monday, killing at least 26 people including civilians gathering humanitarian aid, emergency workers, and police officers. The attack occurred hours after the end of a rare ceasefire, marking a resumption of hostilities.

Why it matters

The resumption of major strikes immediately after a ceasefire demonstrates the fragility of any pause in the conflict and the continued toll on civilian populations.
