- Ukrainian forces said they downed 89 of 104 Russian attack drones, yet strikes still hit 15 locations and an Iskander-M missile found its target, damaging the Orlivka Ukraine–Romania crossing, injuring two people, and halting the ferry temporarily.
- Zelensky announced he signed a decree forming Ukraine’s delegation and issued directives for partner consultations in the coming days on steps to end the war.
- RFE/RL reported that President Donald Trump is pressing Kyiv to decide on a 28-point plan by November 27 that would require territorial concessions and military limits, with Vice President JD Vance defending the framework and Vladimir Putin saying it could form a settlement basis if Ukraine agrees.
- European leaders held an emergency call with Zelensky and planned coordination at the G20, EU ministers publicly drew parallels between the Holodomor and Russia’s conduct today, and public figures in Germany urged adding the Holodomor to school curricula.
