Russia fired two dozen ballistic missiles at Kyiv overnight on Sunday, killing one person and wounding 16, in an ever-escalating air war that is taking an increasing civilian toll on both sides. The latest with France 24 correspondent Emmanuelle Chaze, reporting from Kyiv. One person was killed and 16 others wounded in the overnight Russian attack on Kyiv, local authorities said.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Russia battered Ukraine's capital Kyiv overnight into Sunday local time, with one of its biggest ballistic missile barrages of the war. On Saturday, Ukraine hit two warehouses in Russia in strikes that killed at least eight people and injured 62. Ukraine is facing intensifying Russian missile attacks alongside rare domestic political instability triggered by a sudden wartime shakeup of its defense leadership.
Eight people die and dozens are injured as several cities are hit by missile and drone attacks, while Kyiv continues its own assault on Russian infrastructure. Ukraine is particularly vulnerable to ballistic missile attacks due to a shortage of Patriot air defence munitions. Fires broke out across the Ukrainian capital after Russia's latest missile attack, which used the highest number of ballistic missiles of the war so far.
Several people have been injured in Kyiv.
