Explosions illuminated the night sky over Kyiv as Russia launched a fresh wave of drone and missile attacks on the Ukrainian capital, according to Ukrainian officials. Air raid sirens sounded for hours as air-defence units engaged incoming projectiles, with several blasts visible across multiple districts of the city. Local authorities reported fires in residential areas and damage to civilian infrastructure, though full casualty figures are still being assessed. Emergency services worked through the night to contain blazes and rescue residents trapped in damaged buildings.<br /><br />The attack marks another escalation in Moscow’s campaign targeting major Ukrainian cities, following days of intensified strikes across the country. Kyiv’s administration warned residents to remain in shelters and avoid windows as debris from intercepted drones fell across neighbourhoods. The strikes come as international discussions continue regarding security guarantees and long-term support for Ukraine, with world leaders condemning the latest bombardment. Ukrainian officials say air-defence systems prevented even more widespread destruction. Updates are expected as authorities assess the aftermath of the attack.<br /><br />#Kyiv #Ukraine #KyivAttack #UkraineWar #RussianStrikes #AirDefense #Explosions #BreakingNews #WarInUkraine #RussiaUkraine #DroneAttack #MissileStrike #KyivNews #UkrainianCapital #NightAttack
