All of the attacks on airfields in the Ivanovo, Ryazan, and Amur regions were repelled.

Following the incident over the weekend, Trump has privately voiced his frustration that the strike could escalate the conflict, complicating his efforts to negotiate a resolution, the report said.Furthermore, the attack has even prompted Trump to rethink the possibility of a trilateral summit involving himself, Zelensky, and Russian President Vladimir Putin. He now doubts that such a meeting will take place anytime soon, according to the report.Steve Bannon, a former adviser to US President Donald Trump, said on Tuesday that the Ukrainian attack just before the second round of peace talks between Russia and Ukraine in Istanbul was an escalatory move by Kiev.Bannon has communicated similar sentiments to senior advisers in the West Wing, according to the report.The Ukrainian attack on Russia also lacked support from Trump’s special envoy, Keith Kellogg, who voiced concerns that the strike, involving a component of Russia's nuclear triad, was inherently escalatory.
