US seeking to revive Russia-Ukraine ceasefire talks
Washington is working to restart ceasefire negotiations as Ukraine's president says eight regions have come under Russian attack since the start of the day.
The United States is seeking to revive ceasefire talks between Russia and Ukraine, according to a report from Al Jazeera, as fighting continues on the ground more than three and a half years into the war.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that eight regions of the country had come under attack by Russian forces since the start of the day, underscoring the continued intensity of the conflict even as diplomatic efforts are being pursued.
Diplomatic push continues
The renewed US push to restart negotiations comes amid ongoing efforts by Washington to find a path toward ending the war, though previous rounds of ceasefire diplomacy have repeatedly stalled over disagreements between Moscow and Kyiv.
Details on the specific format or timing of any revived talks were not included in the available report. Al Jazeera's report did not specify which regions were affected by the latest wave of attacks described by Zelenskyy, nor the scale of resulting casualties or damage.
The situation remains fluid, with both battlefield developments and diplomatic maneuvering continuing in parallel as the war enters its fourth year.
