KYIV, Ukraine, Jan 30, 2026 (BSS/AFP) - Russia launched over 100 drones and one missile at Ukraine overnight, the Ukrainian air force said Friday, a day after US President Donald Trump announced Moscow had agreed to a week-long pause in attacks on the capital and other cities.

Trump did not elaborate on his announcement, which Moscow is yet to comment on.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky suggested the pause applied only to Russian strikes on Ukraine's energy sector, and said he was counting on Washington to ensure Russia complied with it.

"On the night of January 30 (from 6:00 pm on January 29), the enemy launched an Iskander-M ballistic missile from Voronezh region, as well as 111 strike drones," Ukraine's air force said.

Russian strikes on Ukrainian power infrastructure in recent days have cut power and heating to millions during freezing temperatures.

Trump said Thursday he "personally" asked Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin to halt the strikes due to the cold temperatures and the pause would last a week.

The governor of Ukraine's southern Zaporizhzhia region said late Thursday that Russia had hit a residential building, wounding one person.
