Russia has launched its most extensive aerial attack on Ukraine since the conflict began, with hundreds of drones and missiles targeting key cities, notably Kyiv. This significant offensive unfolded over two days, leaving at least 15 civilians dead, according to Ukrainian officials.
President Zelenskiy revealed that the strikes included over 670 attack drones and 56 missiles, with Ukrainian air defense successfully intercepting a portion of these threats. The fierce assault suggests that Russia is not inclined to end its military campaign despite international peace initiatives.
Critical civilian infrastructure suffered severe damage across Ukraine, including in the cities of Kyiv and Kharkiv. The attack coincided with geopolitical tensions exacerbated by U.S. President Donald Trump's visit to China, emphasizing the necessity for increased diplomatic pressure on Moscow.
