Officials from Ukraine and the United States have announced a potential agreement that could lead to a 30-day pause in fighting between Ukraine and Russia. The proposed deal, which will be presented to Moscow for approval, marks a significant development in ongoing efforts to de-escalate the conflict.
As part of the breakthrough, the United States has confirmed it will restore military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine. Both had been severed following tensions between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and former US President Donald Trump. The decision to reinstate support is seen as a major boost for Ukraine, which has been grappling with resource shortages amid the prolonged war.
The breakthrough came after high-level negotiations between US and Ukrainian officials in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. While details of the proposed ceasefire remain undisclosed, the plan signals renewed diplomatic efforts to ease hostilities.
However, tensions remain high. In a major overnight assault, Ukrainian drones targeted Moscow, killing at least three people, damaging multiple buildings, and temporarily shutting down airports. The attack underscores the ongoing volatility of the conflict, even as discussions for a temporary truce gain momentum.
With the US aid pipeline set to be reopened, Ukraine stands to gain renewed military and strategic support, which could influence the direction of the war. The next steps will depend on Russia’s response to the proposed ceasefire and whether both sides are willing to commit to a temporary pause in hostilities.
