Story summary

On November 10, 2026, US-mediated peace talks between Russia, Ukraine, and the United States began in Abu Dhabi to address the nearly five-year-long war. Kyrylo Budanov, head of Ukraine's Presidential Office, expressed "restrained optimism" about potential progress toward an eventual meeting between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Russian President Vladimir Putin. The talks aim to create security guarantees for Ukraine and a new European security framework, though experts caution that significant breakthroughs are unlikely given the wide gap in demands between Russia and Ukraine. France confirmed it would be represented at the talks along with other European countries, emphasizing international involvement.

Hakeem Jeffries says he is a 'hard yes' for Hegseth impeachment Jeffries said that House Democrats will have a conversation about whether there's enough support for the resolution when they convene in Washington for the first time after the midterm elections on Tuesday.

Jeffries told ABC News he's a "hard yes" on the proposed resolution to impeach Hegseth, saying Hegseth "abused his power, undermined our national security, and engineered this reckless and costly war of choice in Iran."
