## Summary

Ukraine launched almost 1,200 drones at Russian targets overnight, in one of its largest aerial attacks since Russia’s full-scale invasion began. At the same time, U.S. and Russian negotiators widened discussions about ending the war to include Europe’s post-Cold War security arrangements, raising concerns among European leaders about NATO’s future role.

After talks in Abu Dhabi, U.S. envoys briefed Vladimir Putin in Moscow and Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Dublin, with further discussions planned. Russia agreed to include Europe in upcoming talks, while European officials warned against discussing security arrangements before a ceasefire. Zelenskyy also said speed limits on Ukraine’s Starshield-connected drones were hampering their use against fast Russian drones.
