Russia Ukraine War

Russia has launched a barrage of ballistic missiles and drones into Kyiv, killing at least nine people and wounding 33. The strikes, which occurred overnight into Saturday, follow a major Russian attack two days earlier that killed at least 10 people across Ukraine. Russia's defense ministry claims the attack targeted military-industrial facilities in Kyiv. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has urged the U.S. for more Patriot defense systems to counter these attacks. The cycle of violence continues to hinder diplomatic efforts to end Russia's invasion.
