Russia launched a barrage of ballistic missiles at Ukraine's Kyiv region on Monday, resulting in at least eight fatalities and dozens of injuries. This attack marks the second assault on the capital and its surrounding areas in under a week. The strikes occurred just before a NATO summit in Turkey, where US President Donald Trump and Ukraine's Volodymyr Zelensky are scheduled to discuss the ongoing conflict. The increased long-range attacks by both sides highlight the expanding scope of the war, which began over four years ago with Russia's full-scale invasion.
