Negotiators from the United States and allied nations are pressing hard for a cease-fire in Ukraine. They are working under a loose June deadline for a broader peace framework, while Russia keeps up missile and drone attacks that target homes and power plants. Local leaders say energy systems remain fragile, and emergency heating shelters are opening for families who have lost power in freezing weather.

Officials say the discussions will focus on uranium enrichment limits, international monitoring, and steps that could ease economic pressure if Iran accepts tighter constraints.

Russian forces have resumed heavy rocket and missile strikes across Ukraine, even as negotiators sit down .

He argued that Russia used the lull to prepare new barrages instead of working in good faith toward peace.

Russia fired a large volley of ballistic missiles that knocked out heat for tens of thousands of people during a deep winter cold snap. Ukrainian officials reported damage to homes, businesses and a kindergarten in Kyiv and other cities. Emergency crews worked through the night to restore power and heating and search damaged buildings.

Protests were about the administration’s hardline immigration crackdown stretch into another day, with crowds filling streets in cities across the country. Demonstrators marched and rallied in dozens of communities, urging an end to aggressive raids and detentions targeting undocumented families. Many chanted against Immigration and Customs Enforcement and carried signs calling for due process protections.
