Russia launches fresh missile strikes on Ukraine as Kremlin awaits Trump war proposals

Russian forces launched high-speed ballistic and Onyx missiles in widespread strikes across Ukraine, causing heavy casualties in the Kyiv and Zaporizhzhia regions. A missile strike on a private training facility in the Kyiv region left ten people dead and approximately 100 injured, according to Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko. In Zaporizhzhia, an airstrike wounded 30 individuals, including seven children.

Ukrainian military officials reported 52 combat engagements along the front lines by Friday afternoon alongside persistent shelling of border settlements.
