Putin, Zelenskyy speak with Trump by phone as drone strikes kill 2 in Russia and UK detains tanker

The calls came as Ukrainian drone strikes killed at least 2 people in Russia and hit fuel and oil facilities, officials said.

  • President Donald Trump held separate phone calls with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Sunday, discussing the war in Ukraine ahead of the G7 summit in France.
  • The calls followed Ukrainian drone strikes on Sunday that killed one person in Oryol and ignited fires at fuel storage facilities 440 miles from the Ukrainian border.
  • Zelenskyy confirmed his forces struck an oil facility to degrade resources funding Russia's invasion, while regional officials reported nine wounded in the Oryol residential strike overnight.
  • Separately, British armed forces detained the tanker Smyrtos in the English Channel on Sunday, which British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said is suspected of belonging to a "shadow fleet" violating international sanctions.
  • U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner will visit Russia soon, according to Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov, while further discussions on the conflict are expected at the G7 summit in France this week.
