Trump's Ceasefire Deadline Expires as Russian Strikes Near Kyiv Kill Four, Including a Child

Trump's 10-to-12-day deadline for Russia to agree to a ceasefire — set July 28 in Turnberry, Scotland — expired around Aug. 8–9 without a deal, as Trump said any consequences were 'up to' Putin. Overnight, Russian drone and ballistic-missile strikes killed four people near Kyiv, including a 3-year-old child; a grandfather, grandmother, and grandson died together in a 'double-tap' strike on the town of Pukhivka. Officials said Russia was overwhelming Ukrainian air defenses by launching multiple missiles at the same area within minutes of each other. Separately, Ukrainian drones struck Russian oil refineries, and Zelensky traveled to Serbia seeking international support as the US Senate's newly passed Russia sanctions bill awaited House action.
