Ukraine's July civilian toll hits four-year high as Russia escalates strikes

Ukraine says July was the deadliest civilian month in four years, with at least 377 civilians killed and about 2,129 injured as Russia intensified strikes across cities, including Kharkiv and Chernihiv (where a supermarket attack killed an adult and a 10-year-old); Zelensky condemns the attacks as deliberate terror and urges timely Patriot interceptor missiles, with Raytheon offering to help manufacture them as Russia fires thousands of drones and missiles in a week.
