Russia launched a large-scale missile and drone attack on Kyiv early Sunday, killing at least four people and injuring more than a hundred, according to local authorities. The assault, described as one of the biggest since the war began over four years ago, caused widespread damage to homes, schools, museums, theaters, and other buildings. Residents took shelter in underground metro stations as explosions echoed across the city, while rescue teams worked to extinguish fires and clear debris.
The Russian military said it used nuclear-capable hypersonic 'Oreshnik' missiles, though without nuclear warheads. The attack followed President Vladimir Putin’s warning of retaliation for a recent Ukrainian strike that killed 21 people in Russian-controlled eastern Ukraine. Ukraine’s air force reported intercepting 549 of about 600 drones and 55 of 90 missiles. European leaders condemned the assault, with EU Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen calling it an act of desperation, and French and German leaders criticizing Russia’s escalation.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky urged Western allies for stronger air defense support, while Albania summoned the Russian ambassador after its envoy’s residence in Kyiv was damaged. Other Ukrainian regions, including Kharkiv and Kherson, also came under attack.
