At least 12 people, including three children, were killed today in a Russian airstrike in Zaporizhzhia, a city in southern Ukraine, one day after U.S. President Donald Trump announced an agreement to lift sanctions on Russian diesel (diesel fuel). This development is seen as a serious blow to Kyiv.

A six-year-old girl was among the victims when a strike destroyed part of the apartment complex where she lived.
