Kyiv Braces as Sixth Straight Day of Russian Strikes Leaves 12 Dead

Russia launched a large overnight assault on Kyiv and eight other Ukrainian regions, killing at least 12 people and wounding many as civilian infrastructure and a railway depot were hit; hundreds of emergency workers were deployed. Ukraine officials say the strikes aim to disrupt daily life after months of conflict, while Russia claims a “massive” precision strike using missiles, drones and other weapons.
