The highly anticipated meeting in the remote US state ended with no breakthrough in halting Russia’s more than three-year-long Ukraine invasion.
Ukraine’s air force said Moscow had “attacked with an Iskander-M ballistic missile and 85 Shahed-type” drones, while also attacking “frontline areas” in four regions.
In its daily report, the air force said the attacks took place “on the night of Aug 16” and starting in the evening of Aug 15 – when Putin and Trump held their negotiations.
Kyiv said its air defences shot down 61 of the drones.
The Trump-Putin summit ended with no ceasefire announcement, despite the west pressing the Kremlin for months to commit to a halt in fighting.
Ukraine’s leader Volodymyr Zelensky has not yet publicly reacted to the talks.
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, launched by Putin in February 2022, has killed thousands.
