At least 12 people were killed and dozens injured in Ukraine overnight Sunday after Russia fired 367 drones and missiles<\/a> – the highest number in a single night since Putin launched a full-scale invasion in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAir sirens warning of incoming drones and missiles sounded again in many regions of Ukraine early on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At least three people, including a child, were injured in the north-eastern city of Kharkiv, Mayor Ihor Terekhov said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking to reporters in New Jersey late on Sunday, Trump said of Putin: “I’ve known him a long time, always gotten along with him, but he’s sending rockets into cities and killing people, and I don’t like it at all.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shortly afterwards, Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social that Putin “has gone absolutely crazy”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the US president also had strong words for Zelensky, saying that he “is doing his country no favours by talking the way he does”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Everything out of his mouth causes problems, I don’t like it, and it better stop,” Trump wrote of Zelensky.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

In a rare rebuke, Trump said: “What the hell happened to him? He’s killing a lot of people.” He later called Putin “absolutely crazy”. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky earlier said Washington’s “silence” over recent Russian attacks was encouraging Putin, urging “strong pressure” – including tougher sanctions – on Moscow.
