RUSSIA and Ukraine both launched record drone attacks on each other overnight, as the Kremlin said it saw "positive signals" from US president-elect Donald Trump over his desire to strike a deal to end the conflict.
Russia fired 145 drones at Ukraine overnight, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said - more than in any single night-time attack of the conflict so far.
"Last night, Russia launched a record 145 Shaheds and other strike drones against Ukraine," Zelenskyy said on social media, urging Kyiv's Western allies to do more to help Ukraine's defence. Russia also said it had downed 34 Ukrainian attack drones targeting Moscow on Sunday, the largest attempted attack on the capital since the start of the offensive in 2022.
