At least 25 people died in Ukraine after new Russian strikes, officials said. In Donetsk, missiles hit homes and a shopping centre, killing 11 and injuring 40. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused Russia of targeting rescuers. Attacks also hit Kharkiv and Odesa, damaging infrastructure. Polish PM Donald Tusk warned, "This is what happens when someone appeases barbarians." Meanwhile, the US paused military aid to Ukraine, with former President Donald Trump saying dealing with Ukraine was "more difficult" than Russia. The EU pledged more support, while Ukraine continued to target Russian sites. The war, now in its third year, rages on.
