Russia-Ukraine war intensifies as NATO reinforces eastern defenses

The immediate focus is the escalation around Russia’s war in Ukraine: reports say Russian attacks killed people in Kharkiv and Kyiv, while NATO aircraft were deployed over Poland and Romania amid continuing strikes. The activity is significant because it raises concern about spillover beyond Ukraine and comes alongside reports that U.S. intelligence warned Russia could be preparing attacks against major European states. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called for peace at the United Nations, while a reported U.S. invitation for Vladimir Putin to attend the December G20 summit has drawn criticism. Details remain fluid, and some intelligence claims have not been independently confirmed.
