Delegations from Moscow and Kyiv are holding a second day of U.S.-brokered talks on ending the war that began with Russia's invasion of Ukraine nearly five years ago. The meetings, taking place in Abu Dhabi, are being mediated by U.S. envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff. The talks, which began Tuesday, focus on humanitarian issues like prisoner exchanges and the return of Ukrainian civilians and children. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio called Tuesday's meeting "very productive" but noted that a breakthrough will take time. Meanwhile, fighting continues with both countries using missiles and drones.
