Russian military strikes targeting Ukrainian cities have resulted in widespread casualties and destruction, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. The coordinated missile and drone campaign struck multiple locations across the country, with Kyiv bearing the brunt of the assault on civilian areas.
Among the confirmed fatalities is an Indian national, marking another instance of foreign nationals caught in the ongoing conflict. The strikes damaged homes, buildings, and essential infrastructure across affected regions, compounding the humanitarian crisis facing the war-torn nation.
Emergency services responded to multiple incidents as rescue operations continued in the aftermath of the attacks. The exact number of injured remained fluid as authorities assessed the full extent of damage across impact zones.
The strikes underscore the continued intensity of Russia's military campaign in Ukraine, nearly two years into the full-scale invasion. The attacks on civilian areas have drawn international condemnation and raised fresh concerns about the safety of foreign nationals remaining in the country.
