Russian strikes target Kyiv and port infrastructure across Ukraine

Russian forces launched a third massive wave of drone and missile strikes within a week targeting multiple regions across Ukraine, including Kyiv, Sumy, Mykolaiv, and Odesa.

In the capital and surrounding suburban areas, coordinated overnight strikes involving ballistic missiles ignited fires in residential buildings, warehouses, and industrial facilities. Local officials reported between 15 and 17 people were killed and dozens more wounded during the assault.

Simultaneously, guided aerial bombs struck residential homes in the northeastern Sumy region, killing three people, including two young children. Farther south in the Mykolaiv district, Russian Shahed drones targeted port infrastructure, damaging two civilian vessels, alongside additional aerial bombardments in the Odesa region.
