Returning from the US Open Final, President Trump delivered his first response to Russia’s largest air attack on Ukraine since the war began, vowing a “second phase” of tough sanctions on Moscow. The overnight assault saw over 800 drones and missiles launched, striking Kyiv’s main government building for the first time and leaving at least five civilians dead—including an infant. Trump condemned the strikes and signaled readiness to ratchet up pressure on Russia, facing mounting global calls after earlier peace talks with Putin failed to halt the violence.
