Russian Attack Kills 17 in Kyiv Region

France24 World · world

A brutal Russian attack on Kyiv and its region has resulted in at least 17 deaths, with eight fatalities reported at a railway station. Ukraine's air defence successfully intercepted most drones but failed to stop any Russian missiles. This failure is attributed to a critical shortage of US-made ballistic interceptors, highlighting a significant vulnerability in the nation's defence capabilities against aerial assaults.
