'Whole of Ukraine is in grief' after attacks, but life in Kyiv goes on

Russia launched a significant missile and drone attack on Ukraine, with Kyiv experiencing particularly heavy strikes. Many Kyiv residents spent the night in underground shelters, with over 41,000 people, including nearly 4,500 children, sheltering in the metro. Despite Russia's claims of targeting military objectives, civilian areas were devastated, with smashed windows and destroyed vehicles. The attacks resulted in at least six deaths in Kyiv and at least 16 deaths in Dnipro, where residential buildings were hit. Over 90 people were injured across both cities, and other regions, including Kharkiv, also reported casualties and damage to infrastructure.

Russia launched a major overnight attack across Ukraine, resulting in at least five deaths and dozens of injuries. In Dnipro, four people were killed and 16 injured. Kyiv experienced one fatality and at least 20 injuries following ballistic missile strikes on the city center. Thousands of Kyiv residents sought shelter as large plumes of smoke rose and air raid warnings were issued across most of Ukraine. Kyiv's Mayor urged people to remain in shelters, with reports of two high-rise apartment buildings being hit and fears of people trapped under rubble. An industrial facility in Zaporizhzhia was also attacked.
