Long-range Russian attacks continue to kill Ukrainians amid ceasefire deadlock

Two months ago in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, the United States suggested a ceasefire lasting 30 days without conditions between Russia and Ukraine; Ukraine indicated conditional acceptance, while Russia rejected the offer.
Russia dismissed the ceasefire proposal, arguing that it would primarily serve to aid Ukraine and its Western supporters by giving them time to restock their weapons, resulting in ongoing combat along an approximately 1,000-mile front.
Since Ukraine's March 11 announcement of ceasefire willingness, Russia has maintained long-range drone and missile attacks targeting civilian infrastructure, including playgrounds and residential areas in cities like Kryvyi Rih, Sumy, Kharkiv, and Kyiv.
According to reports from Ukrainian officials compiled by the Associated Press, more than 117 civilians have died and upwards of 1,000 have sustained injuries since March 11, including fatalities from a missile strike on a playground and an attack in Sumy, with several children among both the dead and injured.
The ongoing Russian attacks combined with the ceasefire deadlock prolong the conflict while Ukrainian drone strikes on Moscow disrupt Russian activities and draw rare international criticism of Russia's actions.
