Tensions Rise as Russia Launches Air Attacks on Ukraine Before Victory Day

Russia has launched air attacks on Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities, including the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, ahead of its Victory Day celebrations. At least five people were injured, and civilians have been ordered to evacuate the area around the power plant. The attacks come as Ukraine intensifies its own attacks on Russian-held targets, particularly in Crimea. The conflict began in February 2022 when Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine, claiming it was a "special military operation" to defend against "neo-Nazis."
