On Thursday, Russia executed a large-scale aerial assault on Ukraine, deploying nearly 700 drones and dozens of ballistic and cruise missiles, primarily targeting civilian areas. This attack resulted in at least 16 fatalities and over 80 injuries, marking the most extensive bombardment in almost two weeks. The strikes caused significant damage in various regions, including Kyiv, Odesa, Dnipro, and Zaporizhzhia. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who recently visited Germany, Norway, and Italy to secure more air defense systems, condemned the attacks and emphasized the need for continued international support. Despite Ukraine's air force successfully intercepting 667 out of 703 incoming targets, including 636 drones, the persistent assaults raise grave concerns about civilian safety and the ongoing humanitarian crisis. Zelenskyy reiterated that such acts represent war crimes that must be addressed, urging global partners to fulfill their military support commitments.
