A Russian ballistic missile strike on the Kyiv region killed at least six people and injured dozens more on Friday. The attack occurred shortly after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy hosted representatives from the US company that manufactures Patriot air defense systems.
Simultaneously, a separate long-range Ukrainian attack targeting an oil facility inside Russia resulted in six deaths, bringing the total death toll from Friday's cross-border strikes to at least 17 people.
Ukrainian cities have experienced continuous Russian attacks and daily civilian casualties since the war began in 2022, with both sides continuing to utilize long-range strikes across the region.
