Russian barrage strikes Ukrainian infrastructure as war drags on

Russia fired scores of missiles and drones at targets across Ukraine on Sunday, crashing into energy and rail infrastructure and residential buildings, just two days before the fourth anniversary of Russia’s invasion.Journalists in Kyiv heard a series of blasts starting at around 4.00am, shortly after an air raid alert was issued, with the air force later widening the alert nationwide, citing the threat of missiles.“Moscow continues to invest in strikes more than in diplomacy,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky commented on the attack on social media, saying that Russia launched about 50 missiles and 300 drones overnight.“The main target of the attack was the energy sector. Ordinary residential buildings were also damaged, and there is damage to the railway.”One man was killed and a dozen more people were wounded, among them four children, in and around Kyiv, Ukraine’s national police said.Journalists saw rescuers sifting through debris of a largely destroyed two-storey house in Sofiivska Borshchagivka in the Kyiv-region" class="entity-link entity-location" data-entity-id="2540" data-entity-type="location">Kyiv region.
