Ukraine orders children to evacuate from northeastern towns

Ukraine is evacuating 267 children and their families from Kharkiv due to intensified Russian shelling. While Russia dismissed Trump's call to end the war, the Kremlin expressed openness to "mutually respectful dialogue" with him. Amidst fierce fighting, Ukraine struggles to contain a better-equipped Russian army. Russia demands security guarantees from Nato and the US, including the deployment of Western peacekeeping troops, while disregarding Western sanctions imposed after the 2022 invasion.
