Russia launched its largest drone attack on Ukraine since the invasion, using 728 drones and 13 missiles. One civilian was killed in western Ukraine. Ukraine's Air Force repelled most of the attack, destroying 718 drones. The attack followed Trump's pledge of increased military aid to Ukraine and accusations against Putin. Germany's chancellor also reaffirmed support for Ukraine, stating diplomatic solutions are exhausted. A landmark ruling by Europe's top human rights court found Russia committed major international law violations in Ukraine.
