Kyiv (Khyber Mail): Russian missile strikes have hit 27 locations across Kyiv, killing 14 people and injuring at least 114 others, according to Ukrainian media reports. The coordinated attack targeted multiple districts, striking residential complexes, educational institutions, and key infrastructure facilities.
Several high-rise buildings suffered severe damage, with some partially collapsing. Fires erupted at multiple sites, forcing emergency services into swift response mode. Rescue teams worked tirelessly to extricate trapped residents from stairwells, upper floors, and collapsed structures.
The strikes also disrupted electricity, water supplies, and communication lines, complicating rescue efforts. Authorities activated crisis shelters to aid displaced residents as Kyiv grapples with the aftermath of one of the deadliest attacks in recent months.
Moscow has kept up its attacks on Ukraine despite efforts by the United States to broker a ceasefire.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksy had been hoping to speak with his US counterpart Donald Trump on the sidelines of the G7 summit in Canada, but the US leader cut short his stay as Israel pounded Iran.
