Russia launched 85 drones, one missile on Ukraine: Kyiv

On August 15, 2025, Russian leader Vladimir Putin met with U.S. President Donald Trump in Alaska for discussions amid the continuing conflict in Ukraine.
The discussions took place against the backdrop of the conflict initiated by Putin's decision to send Russian forces into Ukraine in early 2022, which has resulted in extensive casualties and damage.
During the night spanning August 15 to 16, Russian forces deployed 85 Shahed-class aerial vehicles along with a ballistic missile of the Iskander-M type, striking frontline zones across four regions in Ukraine.
Kyiv reported its air defenses shot down 61 drones and Russia’s defense ministry claimed advances near villages in Donetsk and Dnipropetrovsk regions during this period.
The summit ended with no ceasefire or peace agreement, and Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has not publicly responded to the talks or recent events.
