Russia sent 200 drones into Ukraine overnight, striking energy and port facilities despite Trump's statement that both sides had agreed to stop hitting such targets.
Kyiv said the barrage killed one person and injured seven in the capital, while damaging homes and transport infrastructure in southern and western Ukraine.
Ukraine answered with strikes on Russia's Syzran oil refinery and on drone-related sites in Taganrog and the Oryol region, underscoring that no verified halt had taken hold.
Zelensky had said he would pause energy attacks only if Russia did the same, while the Kremlin called Trump's idea a proposal still under discussion with Washington.
The breakdown follows earlier short Trump-brokered pauses that quickly collapsed, as fighting also widened with a new Ukrainian push in Donetsk and fresh NATO-border incidents.
