A Russian drone strike killed nine workers and wounded at least 30 people Wednesday morning in Marhanets, a city located in south-central Ukraine. Serhiy Lysak, the regional leader of Dnipropetrovsk, reported that casualties continue to rise from the attack.
The incident occurs as diplomatic representatives from the United Kingdom, France, Germany, the United States, and Ukraine prepare to discuss potential ceasefire strategies during talks scheduled in London. Russia initially proposed a 30-hour Easter Sunday truce, which Ukraine mirrored, but both sides accused each other of violating the temporary cessation of hostilities.
Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022, with estimates suggesting hundreds of thousands of people have suffered injuries or fatalities across all sides of the conflict. The United States has been actively engaging with Russian, Ukrainian, and European officials to negotiate a peaceful resolution.
Last month, Moscow presented extensive conditions in response to a ceasefire framework previously agreed upon by the United States and Ukraine. These ongoing diplomatic efforts continue as the conflict persists, with international stakeholders seeking to broker a potential peaceful resolution.
