Russia Conducts Massive Kiev Strike; Plans Ground Operation; Zelensky Demands More EU Money; Drones
"Last night that massive strike did indeed take place. And even by the scale of strikes that we have seen from the Russians, this was indeed a very big one. Apparently something like around 70 missiles in total were used, which is a big strike by any standards. It's about as big as any missile strike on Ukraine that Russia has ever conducted."
Russia conducted an unprecedented concentrated missile strike on Kiev using approximately 70 missiles and hundreds of drones, representing one of the largest attacks on a single city since the war began. The strike utilized multiple missile types including subsonic cruise missiles, ballistic missiles, and reportedly hypersonic Zircon missiles launched from various platforms. The attack killed 13 people and caused significant damage across Ukraine's capital.
