Russian missiles and drones hammered Kyiv in an overnight attack, the largest aerial assault on the Ukrainian capital since the war began more than three years ago.
Russian missiles and drones hammered Kyiv in an overnight attack, the largest aerial assault on the Ukrainian capital since the war began more than three years ago.
The attack came shortly after President Trump held an hour-long phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin, a conversation Trump said made no progress towards ending the conflict. Shortly after the bombardment, Trump spoke with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who called it a « very important and useful conversation ».
Air raid sirens wailed across Kyiv for eight hours into Friday morning, and many families sought shelter in underground metro stations during the Russian onslaught. At least one person was killed and more than 20 people injured across several districts of Kyiv.
Officials in Kyiv said apartment blocks, schools, warehouses and railroad infrastructure were also damaged by the roughly 550 drones and 11 missiles that landed on the capital.
