"Russian Missiles Strike Ukrainian Civilian Areas, Injuring Dozens"

Russia fired missiles at Kharkiv, Ukraine, hitting apartment buildings and a medical center, injuring 17 people, as part of intensified aerial attacks that have increased civilian casualties. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy is seeking Western allies' support for weaponry, while Ukraine's focus this year is on air power to control the skies. French President Macron urged the EU to intensify support for Ukraine, and NATO is planning military exercises in response to the conflict. The attack on Kharkiv is part of a broader pattern of cross-border attacks and artillery fire, with both sides looking to replenish their weapons stockpiles as the war's focus turns to long-range missile, drone, and artillery strikes.
