Kyiv faced heavy Russian missile and drone strikes overnight, leaving 4 dead, including 2 children, and 24 injured. Mayor Vitali Klitschko called the assault “massive,” as buildings collapsed in Darnytski and fires broke out in Dnipro district. More than 20 districts were targeted, with homes, a kindergarten, and residential towers hit. Ukraine said at least 5 children were wounded. The attack followed earlier strikes that cut power to 100,000 homes. President Volodymyr Zelensky condemned Russia’s aggression while talks on a possible ceasefire continue. Rescue teams are still working through the rubble to search for survivors in the capital. (PC: BBC)
