In brief
Russia intensified a wave of air attacks across Ukraine, hitting a market in Kyiv and a Wildberries warehouse near Moscow. Ukrainian forces shot down three missiles and almost 100 drones, while Moscow’s mayor reported a thousand‑plus drone onslaught. The strikes left at least three casualties and more than ten wounded, with air‑raid sirens ringing in major cities. Kyiv continues to target Russian logistics hubs in a broader push to disrupt military supplies.
The conflict escalated again today with Russian forces striking across Ukraine.
At least three people were killed and more than ten injured following a series of missile and drone attacks, Ukrainian officials confirmed.
A hot‑fire engulfed a market in Kyiv when it was hit overnight by Russian missiles and drones. Firefighters rushed to the scene, battling flames that had spread rapidly across the area.
Ukraine reported shooting down three Russian missiles and nearly one hundred drones. In contrast, Moscow’s mayor said that supposedly 600 Ukrainian drones struck the city’s outskirts overnight, causing damage to a Wildberries warehouse in Koledino, 25 km from central Moscow.
Russia has amplified its aerial campaign in recent weeks, prompting Kyiv to intensify its targeting of Russian supply lines and logistics centers.
Air‑raid sirens activated four times since Saturday night in Kyiv. Mayor Vitali Klitschko said at least six people, including a child, were wounded. In the southern city of Zaporizhzhia, a Russia‑guided bomb destroyed a home, killing two. Dnipropetrovsk reported one death and fourteen injuries inflicted by a similar strike.
In Russia, officials noted the loss of three staff members in a Ukrainian strike. Moscow’s mayor claimed that roughly a third of the drones launched at the capital had been intercepted.
The Wildberries warehouse in Koledino suffered a fire and large plume of smoke, confirmed by video footage. The incident underscores the broader pattern of targeting commercial logistics hubs, a strategy Kyiv says aims to weaken Russia’s army supply chains.
