Russian forces launched a massive wave of attacks overnight into Saturday, sending shockwaves across the region.
In total, 51 missiles and 653 drones struck, painting a stark picture of the ongoing conflict.
The scale of the assault left local authorities scrambling and citizens bracing for impact.
Tensions Rise Amid Diplomacy
The strikes came even as Washington reported that “constructive discussions” had taken place in peace talks.
The contrast between the rhetoric of diplomacy and the reality on the ground highlighted the fragile nature of negotiations, raising questions about whether words alone could hold back the violence.
Impact on Communities
Communities in targeted areas were forced into hurried evacuations, and emergency services faced overwhelming pressure.
While the full extent of damage was still being assessed, officials warned that the combination of missiles and drones posed unprecedented risks to both civilian infrastructure and military installations.
A Global Spotlight
The international community watched closely, with leaders weighing how to respond.
Analysts pointed out that while talks continue behind closed doors, the nightly attacks underscore the difficulty of reconciling diplomatic efforts with the ongoing escalation on the battlefield.
Looking Ahead
As the dust settles, experts caution that the situation remains volatile.
The tension between diplomatic progress and on-the-ground aggression is likely to define the coming days, leaving the world to wonder whether peace negotiations can keep pace with the intensity of the conflict
