Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Russia Launches Massive Missile And Drone Attack On Kyiv
Caption: Russia Launches Massive Missile And Drone Attack On Kyiv. Kyiv came under one of the largest Russian aerial assaults of the war overnight, with at least two people killed and dozens injured. Russia reportedly launched around 600 drones and 30 missiles during the attack, according to Ukraine’s air force. Ukrainian officials said at least one Oreshnik missile was used — a hypersonic weapon capable of carrying nuclear warheads. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said residential buildings, schools and cultural sites were among the targets struck in the bombardment. Zelenskyy said the attack damaged the Chornobyl Museum, the National Art Museum and offices used by German broadcaster ARD. Russian President Vladimir Putin earlier accused Ukraine of killing 18 people in an attack on a student dormitory in occupied Luhansk and ordered military retaliation plans. Ukraine denied targeting civilians in Luhansk, saying it had struck a military command center instead. Kaja Kallas, the EU’s foreign policy chief, condemned the strikes as “abhorrent acts of terror” and described the use of the Oreshnik missile as “reckless nuclear-brinkmanship.” Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
