US EditionUS Accuses Russia of Dangerous Escalation Amid Ukraine Peace Talks
The United States condemned Russia's use of a nuclear-capable Oreshnik missile near NATO borders, warning it risks escalating the conflict and causing extensive civilian casualties, US officials said.
- On Monday, the United States condemned the attack as `dangerous and inexplicable escalation` at an emergency United Nations Security Council meeting, while Tammy Bruce warned it risked `expanding and intensifying the war` and contradicted peace efforts.
- Moscow said the strike responded to a Ukrainian attack on one of President Vladimir Putin's residences, but the Trump administration assessed Ukraine did not launch any such attack and Kyiv denies the claim.
- Early on Tuesday, Kharkiv Regional Governor Oleh Syniehubov confirmed two deaths and three wounded, while local reports said a children's medical facility and civilian energy infrastructure were hit.
- Last week’s large-scale attack came days after Kyiv and Western allies reported progress on a US-led peace deal, while the strike near Poland alarmed NATO and British Defence Secretary John Healey.
- Moscow has shown no public willingness to budge, rejecting peace proposals, while the attack followed a new chill after the Kremlin condemned the U.S. seizure of a Russian-flagged oil tanker.
