Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met European leaders in London, hosted by U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer, to discuss shielding Ukraine from future Russian aggression, bolstering air defenses and the power grid, and supplying longer‑range missiles. The gathering seeks to intensify pressure on Vladimir Putin alongside fresh U.S. and European sanctions and to shape a rotating “reassurance force” for air and naval support and training. As talks opened, Russia claimed gains in Donetsk and mass drone shootdowns, while strikes killed two in Kherson, injured six in Kharkiv, and forced flight suspensions around Moscow.
