Putin Rules Out Ukraine Ceasefire, Warns West on Kaliningrad

Russian President Vladimir Putin ruled out a ceasefire on long-range strikes with Ukraine at Moscow's Valdai forum, saying Kyiv's attacks on Russian oil refineries cost about 1 percent of GDP. He warned the West that Russia would deploy all available weapons, including nuclear, if Kaliningrad faced a direct attack. A Russian drone struck a Kyiv school, causing no casualties.
