Russia-Ukraine war continues today, marked by ongoing intense fighting and simultaneous, highly sensitive peace negotiations. A key development is the U.S. brokered peace proposal that Ukraine has reportedly agreed to in principle, while Russia launched a major overnight missile barrage on Ukrainian cities.
The Key Developments (as of November 25, 2025)
Peace Negotiations: U.S. and Ukrainian officials have been engaged in talks in Geneva and Abu Dhabi to work on a peace plan proposed by U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration. A U.S. official stated that a Ukrainian delegation has agreed to the “core terms” of the deal, though Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted more work is needed.
Russian Reaction and Escalation: Following the news of progress in the peace talks, Russia launched a large-scale aerial attack on Ukraine overnight into Tuesday, utilizing 22 missiles and 460 drones. The strikes hit civilian infrastructure and residential buildings in Kyiv, Odesa, and other regions, killing at least six people and injuring many more. Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry called the attack a “terrorist response to the United States’ and President Trump’s peace proposals”. Russia has not officially reacted to the peace proposal details, maintaining its maximalist demands.
Sticking Points: A major obstacle to any final agreement is Russia’s demand for legal recognition of the Ukrainian territory it has occupied, which includes Crimea and parts of the eastern Donbas, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia regions. Ukraine maintains its borders cannot be changed by force.
On the Ground: Fighting continues, particularly around the eastern city of Pokrovsk in the Donetsk region, a strategic location where Russian forces have been making incremental advances.
International Involvement: The U.S. has been leading the latest diplomatic push. The European Union and NATO allies have largely rallied behind Ukraine, with the EU foreign policy chief stressing that any final deal should prevent future Russian aggression.
The war, which began with Russia’s annexation of Crimea in 2014 and escalated into a full-scale invasion in February 2022, has caused a massive refugee crisis and hundreds of thousands of casualties.
