People say that Russian soldiers have taken four villages near the border in Ukraine's Sumy region. This area is next to Russia's Kursk region, where Ukrainian soldiers took some land last year. This happened after Russian President Vladimir Putin said he wanted to create a safe area along the border. He wants to stop Ukraine from entering Russia. Even though Russia has bombed less recently, the war is still going on, and peace talks have not helped much. The only good thing from recent talks was a big exchange of prisoners. Keith Kellogg, a special US representative for Ukraine, has not received Putin's promised plan for peace. There have been many bombings, but Russia used fewer drones from Monday to Tuesday. Now, Russian soldiers are trying to move more into Sumy, and Ukrainian soldiers are trying to keep their positions.
