Various of the memorial of fallen Ukrainian soldiers STORYLINE: US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed during a lengthy call Tuesday to an immediate pause in strikes against energy and infrastructure targets in the Ukraine war, but the Russian leader stopped short of backing a broader 30-day pause in fighting the U.S. administration is pressing for. The White House described it as the first step in a “movement to peace” it hopes will eventually include a maritime ceasefire in the Black Sea and a full and lasting end to the fighting. The White House added negotiations would “begin immediately” in the Middle East on those steps. Shortly after the call between Trump and Putin, air raid alerts sounded in Kyiv, followed by explosions in the city. Local officials urged people to seek shelter. Nineteen-year-old Kyiv resident Andrii Dubina hid from Russian drones in the metro station with his colleagues. "It is worth understanding that Ukraine will continue to fight, which is evident from public sentiment. After all, we clearly understand that Russia will not give us the opportunity to live peacefully and calmly, so our people are determined to continue fighting. The Russian imperialists do not want to let us live peacefully, because they do not recognize our right to exist, so we are forced to figh," he said. Kyiv resident Mariana,28, lost her friend in the war. She walked near the memorial of fallen Ukrainian soldiers on the Independence Square. Dmytr, 30, looked at the memorial of fallen Ukrainian soldiers.
