Senior Ukrainian officials visited Washington Tuesday to seek U.S. support against Russia while accusing Moscow of dragging its feet at peace talks.
This as Moscow's top security official Sergei Shoigu arrived in Pyongyang to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un to discuss the situation in Ukraine.
Meanwhile, a Russian rocket attack targeted the Ukrainian city of Sumy, killing at least four people and wounding 25, while Ukraine used explosives to damage a bridge that links Russia with Crimea.
The moment an explosion damaged the foundations of the Kerch Bridge that links Russia with Crimea -- a key artery for Russian military supplies in its war with Ukraine.
The Ukrainian Security Service claimed responsibility. The road has now reopened.
In the northeastern Ukrainian city of Sumy, at least four people were killed and dozens injured when a Russian rocket hit a medical facility and residential building while vehicles were also damaged.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reacted to the attack on his Telegram page, writing one of the rockets pierced through a wall of an apartment and didn't explode, adding: "It is clear that without global pressure, without decisive action from the United States, Europe and everyone in the world who holds power, Putin will not agree even to a ceasefire."
This as Russia hit several other cities in Ukraine overnight, including Chernihiv, Kharkiv and Odesa, damaging cars and buildings.
In the Black Sea port of Odesa, strike drones caused fires in residential buildings and this food warehouse.
And the head of the International Atomic Agency, or IAEA, said there is no evidence of Russia moving to restart the occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.
IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi: "We are aware of some information about that, not coming from Russia, but from other experts and groups in the world, indicating that there are some construction works that would indicate that. It's highly speculative. We don't have any evidence that this is happening at this at this point."
