Earlier on the same night, Russia launched a large-scale assault involving over 470 strike drones and 48 ballistic and cruise missiles targeting multiple locations in Ukraine. Ukrainian authorities reported extensive damage and casualties, emphasizing the scale and intensity of the assault.
The Ukrainian government condemned the attack, calling it an escalation of Russia’s ongoing military campaign. Ukrainian officials continue to work on rescue efforts and assess the extent of the damage caused by the strikes, which affected several regions across Ukraine.
