Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy mentioned over 200 drone attacks by Russia on Ukrainian energy infrastructure across seven regions. Russian officials reported intercepting 29 Ukrainian drones aimed at Moscow. No casualties or damage were reported. Ukrainian drones reportedly targeted energy and industrial sites in Krasnodar, Tatarstan, and Kaluga, with Ukraine confirming two of the three attacks.

Rustem Umerov, Ukraine's chief negotiator, met with Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan to discuss peace negotiations, focusing on humanitarian issues and the return of Ukrainians held by Russia. In his New Year address, President Zelenskyy expressed a desire to end the war without resorting to a weak peace agreement. Zelenskyy indicated that diplomatic efforts, including discussions with US President Donald Trump, have brought a peace agreement close to completion, with 90% of the deal finalized.
