Russia launched a new wave of missile and drone attacks on Ukraine, striking several cities, including Kyiv, Kryvyi Rih, and Zaporizhzhia. At least six people were killed, and dozens were injured in the bombardment. The strikes come after Ukraine’s military incursion into Russia’s Kursk region earlier this month. President Volodymyr Zelensky vowed to retaliate against the attacks, while continuing to press for diplomatic efforts to bring Russia to the negotiating table. Despite the heavy bombardment, Ukraine’s air defense managed to intercept several missiles and drones. Russia’s offensive continues in eastern Ukraine, targeting critical infrastructure and civilian areas.
