Officials said a Russian drone hit a busy train platform in Dnipro, killing at least 14 people, while attacks during the day killed two teenagers in Chernihiv and three people at a residential block in Kremenchuk; 23 were wounded in Chernihiv and 15 in Kremenchuk. The incidents came as a six-day humanitarian pause negotiated with American assistance covered only the Kherson region, allowing aid to reach Oleshky, which is under Russian control. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, reacting to the Dnipro deaths, called on allies to increase pressure on Moscow. He cited Washington’s easing of restrictions on Russian diesel shipments and Brussels’ pause on penalties involving two Russian billionaires, asking whether attacks had declined after those measures.
