Ukraine warns of potential large-scale Russian missile strike amid ongoing aerial attacks

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has warned of a potential large-scale Russian missile attack within two days, citing reports from domestic intelligence services and international partners.

The announcement comes amid widespread Russian aerial bombardments across multiple Ukrainian regions. Ukrainian Air Defense units intercepted one of three Iskander-M/S-400 ballistic missiles fired toward the Kyiv region, as well as 81 attack drones. Ukrainian Air Force spokesperson Yuriy Ihnat stated that Russian forces also launched two Onyx missiles targeting southern regions, highlighting that high-speed ballistic threats persist nationwide.

The recent strikes caused significant damage and casualties. An airstrike on Zaporizhzhia injured 30 people, including seven children, while a drone explosion shattered windows and injured a resident near a residential high-rise in Kharkiv's Saltivskyi district.
