Ukraine: Russian Missiles and Drones Hit Kyiv, Killing Residents and Damaging Buildings

Russia launched a massive attack on Kyiv early Tuesday, firing missiles and drones that killed residents and tore through buildings. The assault, one of the largest on the capital in weeks, struck residential areas, leaving several people dead and many injured. Emergency crews worked through the morning to pull survivors from the wreckage. Ukrainian officials said air defenses intercepted some projectiles, but debris caused additional damage on the ground. The attack follows a pattern of intensified strikes on Ukrainian cities as winter approaches. No official statement from Russian authorities was immediately available.
