Zelenskyy warns of potential Russian missile strike as attacks persist

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has alerted the public to intelligence indicating that Russian forces may launch a large-scale missile attack within the next two days. The warning comes as Ukrainian air defense forces neutralized 81 attack drones and intercepted one of three ballistic missiles launched toward the Kyiv region. Air Force spokesperson Yurii Ihnat noted that two supersonic Onyx missiles fired at southern targets also failed to reach their objectives.

Despite air defense efforts, ongoing Russian strikes caused severe casualties and damage. Emergency services reported that an aerial bomb attack on Zaporizhzhia injured 30 people, including seven children. In Kharkiv, a drone blast near a high-rise residential building shattered windows and injured one person. Ukrainian officials emphasized that high-level aerial threats remain active across the country.
