Ukraine’s Budanov warned of deeper, more powerful strikes into Russia if Moscow continues hostilities, following Ukrainian Deep Strike forces hitting two gas-condensate plants in Yamalo-Nenets; Zelensky said eight Russian facilities were struck the day before, Kyiv seeks terms-based end to the war, and trilateral talks with the US could resume as Moscow signals willingness.
Ukraine’s Kyrylo Budanov says Russia invited Kyiv to Moscow for peace talks after a Geneva round that could have included Vladimir Putin, but the visit never occurred.

Ukraine’s action-thriller Killhouse casts battlefield drones and cutting-edge tech as the centerpiece, billing itself as Saving Private Ryan for the drone era. Inspired by a real rescue story, it weaves in a cameo by Kyrylo Budanov and scenes shot around Kyiv, using footage from combat drones and even a White House–style setting. Made largely without state support on a $1.1M budget, the film blurs fiction and reality while exploring the moral question of sacrificing many to save one, with plans for an English-language release or streaming potential.
