    Russia-Ukraine War: 741 drones fired at Ukraine, Trump lashes out at Putin

    In its biggest aerial attack since the war began, Russia launched 741 air weapons — including 728 drones and 13 missiles — across multiple Ukrainian cities. The attack came just hours after U.S. President Donald Trump pledged more military aid to Kyiv and sharply criticized Vladimir Putin for blocking peace talks.
