JAKARTA - The Kremlin insists it is still interested in continuing peace negotiations related to Ukraine despite Russia launching a major and deadly attack on Kyiv overnight.
Ukrainian officials say the attack has killed 15 people, including four children, in an attack on the Ukrainian capital which President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said was Moscow's response to diplomatic efforts to end the war.
Asked if there was a contradiction between Moscow's desire to make progress in the peace negotiations and the attack, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the two sides continued to attack each other but Russia was still interested in achieving its goals through diplomacy.
According to him, Russian troops continue to target the Ukrainian military and military-related infrastructure.
Peskov repeatedly emphasized Russia was accidentally targeting civilians.
He said Ukraine was also continuing its attacks on Russian infrastructure, including civilian infrastructure.
"Special military operations continue. You can see that attacks on Russian infrastructure, often against Russian civilian infrastructure, the Kyiv regime is also continuing," Peskov said.
