At Least 10 Killed in Massive Russian Missile and Drone Attack on Kyiv

Kyiv, Ukraine – A large-scale Russian missile and drone assault on Ukraine’s capital and surrounding areas killed at least 10 people and wounded dozens more early Monday, in one of the deadliest attacks on Kyiv in recent weeks, officials said.

According to Ukraine’s air force, Russia launched 352 drones and decoys, 11 ballistic missiles, and 5 cruise missiles overnight. While most were intercepted or jammed, several projectiles struck residential buildings, hospitals, and even a metro station entrance being used as a bomb shelter.

The head of Kyiv’s military administration, Tymur Tkachenko, described the attack as another “massive” and deliberate strike on civilian areas. “The Russians’ style is unchanged – to hit where there may be people,” he said, confirming damage across six of Kyiv’s 10 districts and ongoing rescue operations under rubble.

Separate strikes in other regions also caused casualties. In Chernihiv, a drone attack killed two and wounded ten, including children. In Bila Tserkva, southwest of Kyiv, one person was killed and eight injured. Ukrainian authorities fear more casualties may be found as search efforts continue.
