At least one person was killed in what Ukraine’s foreign minister called the largest ballistic missile barrage aimed at Kyiv since the start of the Russia’s invasion more than four years ago.
“Russia unleashed the largest number of ballistic missiles since the start of the war — around four dozen — in a brutal terrorist attack on the Ukrainian capital,” Andrii Sybiha said on X. “We need devastating pressure on Moscow to end this terror.”
Another 16 people were wounded in the overnight assault on the Ukrainian capital and surrounding region, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on X.
