Ukrainian police handcuff a woman they believe is behind a deadly bombing in the city of Lviv, possibly under Russian instructions.

Bombs hidden in trash cans went off early Sunday as police responded to a reported break in.

Police have detained several people in connection with the attack, but

it hasn't eased nerves around the neighborhood where buildings are damaged.

Our mother is with us and she is unable to walk.

And in her room, there is a bed not far from the window.

My friend in her room taped up the windows and that saved her.

Then in that room, all the windows were completely broken, and that film held them back a little.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has issued a strong condemnation.

It is difficult to call it otherwise, as it was precisely a cynical and cruel terrorist act.

The second one, when the rescuers arrived on site, 25 people were wounded.

Unfortunately, one person, a policewoman, died.

If Russia did order the blasts, it's a new tactic in a war that by Tuesday will have gone on for four years.

But Russia hasn't stopped conventional attacks either, despite rounds of talks aimed at pausing its invasion of Ukraine.

Overnight into Sunday, Ukraine's air force says Russia launched 50 missiles and 297 drones.

Among the places they hit was this residential area near Kyiv.

Ukraine has been striking back, even hitting targets deep within Russia.

It says this footage from Friday shows flamingo missiles sent to strike an important military factory 1400km from the Russian border.

Ukraine hasn't been the easy target Russian President Vladimir Putin may have expected when he launched his so called special military operation in 2022.

Russia wants Ukrainian troops to withdraw from parts of eastern Ukraine, a non starter for Kyiv.

Some Ukrainians feel resigned to the fight.

It seems that it has become a little harder mentally, because in the first years we hoped that war will end soon, but

Some even think things are getting worse.

Since I am a soldier, it has changed a lot.

But amid the struggles, people are trying to make something out of the hand they've been dealt.

I noticed that many pregnant women appeared.

Everyone started opening businesses and doing everything they had been putting off all this time.

Because everyone realized that there was no point in waiting for the end of the war.

Four years of Europe's deadliest conflict since World War II isn't bringing much in the way of hope.

But over the years, Ukraine's people have settled into a grim determination to stick it out, setting up warm shelters when the heat goes out, distributing food and making sure the kids get their homework done, even if there's no way to know when the next strike will come.
