Kyiv missile attack kills at least 9, wounds 22
At least nine people were killed and 22 wounded in Ukraine's capital Kyiv after Russia launched a series of ballistic missiles overnight into Saturday, authorities said. Both sides have escalated long-range strikes in recent months.
Ukrainian officials said at least nine people were killed and 22 wounded after Russia launched a barrage of ballistic missiles at Kyiv overnight into Saturday. The strikes hit several districts of the capital.
Both Russia and Ukraine have ramped up long-range attacks in recent months. Moscow has intensified missile and drone strikes on Ukrainian cities, while Kyiv has expanded its own strikes across the border.
Rescue teams continued searching through rubble in the hours after the attack. Ukrainian officials said strikes on civilian targets amount to war crimes, while Russia did not respond to the allegations.
