On a devastating night for Ukraine, Russia launched an overwhelming assault using 324 drones and 7 missiles, targeting key infrastructure and civilian areas. A multi-storey apartment building in Kyiv’s Darnytskyi district was hit, leaving eight injured, including a three-year-old child.
While Ukraine’s air defenses fought back, some attacks got through — and the town of Starokostyantyniv, home to a strategic air base, was among the primary targets. Air raid sirens blared across the country for hours, and even Polish fighter jets were scrambled as the threat extended beyond Ukraine’s borders.
