Russia pounded Ukraine’s power grid on Sunday with hundreds of drones and dozens of missiles, killing at least one man in Kyiv, the capital, even as negotiators for both countries prepared for another round of peace negotiations in the coming days.
Explosions in the western city of Lviv killed a police officer, although it was not clear if Russia was behind those attacks.
Ukraine will mark the fourth anniversary of Russia’s full-scale invasion on Tuesday, days after the latest round of U.S.-mediated negotiations in Geneva concluded with little concrete progress.
President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine has said that the next round of talks is expected to be held by early March. In a speech on Saturday, Mr. Zelensky said he believed that in Geneva, the American negotiators had realized that the Russians were “the reason no truly meaningful results had yet been achieved.”
Hours later, the Russians resumed their attacks on infrastructure in Kyiv and central and southwestern Ukraine. The Ukrainian Air Force said it shot down 33 of 50 Russian missiles and 274 of 297 Russian drones. A 49-year-old man in Kyiv was killed and 15 people were injured, including four children, according to the Kyiv Regional Military Administration.
