Ukraine’s capital Kyiv rocked by deadly Russian attack
Ukraine’s capital, Kyiv, has once again come under intense Russian fire as waves of drone and missile strikes hit the city from early dawn. Nearly every district of the capital was targeted, leaving widespread destruction and panic among residents. A photo captured by Reuters shows a woman standing with her dog beside the ruins of a heavily damaged
apartment building — a stark reminder of the scale of devastation caused by the overnight strikes. Kyiv Mayor Vitaly Klitschko said that the city faced a “massive” and coordinated assault, with explosions and fires reported across multiple neighborhoods. According to President Volodymyr Zelenskyy , at least four people have been killed in the attacks. Ukraine’s emergency services confirmed that more than 24 people have been injured , several of them critically. Rescue operations are ongoing, with emergency teams working through rubble and damaged structures amid fears of further collapse. Authorities have urged residents to remain in shelters as the threat of additional strikes persists. This latest assault is being viewed as one of the most severe attacks on Kyiv in recent months, underscoring the continuing escalation of the conflict.
