Russia unleashed an unprecedented aerial onslaught on Kyiv late July 3 into July 4, deploying about 550 drones and missiles, including 539 Shahed drones and 11 missiles . The seven‑hour bombardment, the largest since the war’s start, injured at least 23 civilians, hospitalized 14, and killed one . Strikes triggered major fires and damaged residential buildings, a school, a medical facility, rail infrastructure, and metro shelters . Metro stations served as emergency bunkers amid continuous air‑raid alerts . President Zelensky condemned the attack as “deliberately massive and cynical,” noting its timing came hours after a Trump–Putin phone call.
