Russian strikes on a southern Ukrainian aid site kill at least 29 as Kherson truce ends

Russian strikes on a village in southern Ukraine on Monday killed at least 26 people, including civilians collecting humanitarian aid, hours after a rare ceasefire expired. The toll from the aid site attack has since reached 29, with 48 still missing. Ukraine says at least 38 people were killed in 24 hours of Russian attacks, and Zelensky warns dozens more could be trapped under rubble. On Tuesday Russian strikes also hit Dnipro, killing two and injuring 20, while Zelensky met Chancellor Merz in Berlin ahead of trilateral talks with Russia and the US in Abu Dhabi next week.

• The Kherson-region ceasefire, described as the longest of the war, ended on Sunday evening and was not extended. Fighting resumed.
• Overnight strikes hit a hospital and power plants across Ukraine, with at least 73 injured. Kyiv says at least nine 3,000kg aerial bombs hit the aid centre village.
• Ukraine and Russia traded blame over hacks of their alert apps after the truce ended. Ukraine says its air raid app was probably hacked.
• Zelensky hopes the Abu Dhabi talks will open a path to a meeting with Putin. Merz says Russia has yet to engage seriously in peace efforts.
