Russian drone and missile strikes across Ukraine killed at least eight civilians on Thursday. The attacks targeted locations including Kyiv and the country's northeast, resulting in damage to a maternity hospital and a farm. Officials reported that the strikes are part of an intensified air campaign by Moscow, which has increasingly deployed faster and more difficult-to-intercept drones in recent months.
The violence occurred as world leaders gathered at the United Nations General Assembly to discuss potential paths to end the conflict. Despite renewed international appeals for a settlement, the invasion continues to grind on after more than four years.
