In a significant escalation, Russia launched an extensive aerial assault on Ukraine, employing over 400 drones and 40 missiles. The attack, which targeted multiple regions including Kyiv, Lviv, and Sumy, resulted in at least six fatalities and approximately 80 injuries. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy expressed concerns about potential casualties trapped under debris. The strikes occurred shortly after a phone conversation between former US President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin, during which the Ukrainian attacks on Russia were discussed. Ukrainian defenses managed to intercept about 30 missiles and 200 drones. Zelenskyy has called for international unity and diplomatic efforts, including a ceasefire, to halt the attacks.
