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

Russian strikes on a southern Ukrainian village on Monday killed civilians collecting humanitarian aid, emergency workers and police, hours after the Kherson-region ceasefire expired. Reports put the toll at 29 on Tuesday, with 48 still missing, and Ukraine says at least 38 people were killed in 24 hours across several attacks. Overnight strikes also hit a hospital and power plants, and Russian strikes on Dnipro killed two and injured 20. Diplomacy continues, with Zelensky meeting Merz in Berlin ahead of trilateral talks with Russia and the US in Abu Dhabi next week.

• Kyiv says at least nine 3,000kg aerial bombs hit the aid centre village; the toll rose from 18 on Sunday to 29, with 48 missing.
• Russian missiles and bombs struck a medical facility and power plants overnight, with at least 73 injured; Dnipro strikes killed two and hurt 20.
• The six-day Kherson ceasefire, the longest of the war, ended on Sunday evening, and fighting resumed. Hundreds of people evacuated from Oleshky during it.
• Zelensky hopes the Abu Dhabi talks lead to a meeting with Putin, while Merz says Russia has yet to engage seriously in peace efforts.
