Three Killed as Russia Intensifies Aerial Assaults on Ukraine

At least three civilians have died and more than 10 people were injured after a fresh wave of Russian missile and drone attacks struck Ukraine’s capital Kyiv and a Wildberries warehouse near Moscow, officials said. An overnight missile burst set a book market ablaze in Kyiv, while Ukrainian forces shot down three Russian missiles and nearly one hundred drones. Moscow’s mayor reported that about 600 Ukrainian drones were launched overnight toward the city, a Wildberries warehouse was hit and caught fire. The surge in air raids comes amid increased Russian aerial attacks across the country, while Kyiv has escalated its targeting of Russian logistics hubs in an effort to disrupt military supplies. In Zaporizhzhia and Dnipropetrovsk, officials said two people were killed and one killed with 14 injured when aerial bombs hit residential areas. In Russia, a Ukrainian strike injured three individuals, and the Wildberries warehouse fire was witnessed by Russian officials. While a Spanish fighter jet intercepted a drone that crossed Romanian airspace, the region saw increased tension.
