In a deadliest air assault since the conflict began, Russia has launched its largest aerial attack on Ukraine overnight. The assault involved over 800 drones and decoys, representing a significant escalation in hostilities. For the first time, a major Ukrainian government building in central Kyiv was struck and set ablaze.
The attack resulted in the death of at least three people, including an infant, and caused injuries to around 18 others. Fires broke out in both residential and official buildings, leading Ukrainian officials to condemn the strike as a deliberate attempt to target civilians. The government building damaged is situated in a part of Kyiv that has rarely experienced attacks before.
Authorities are actively responding to the destruction and casualties caused by the assault as the city copes with the aftermath. The unprecedented scale of drone usage underscores the intensifying military efforts by Russia amid ongoing tensions.
This attack has raised serious international concerns regarding the growing volatility of the conflict and the suffering of innocent civilians caught in the crossfire. Ukrainian officials continue to appeal for increased support and defense against further attacks.
