Ukraine Under Attack: Russia Launches Drone and Missile Strikes

Kyiv came under Russian attack with drones and missiles early Sunday morning, two days before the fourth anniversary of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Ukrainian authorities reported explosions in residential areas and critical infrastructure. Sirens sounded in many cities, including Kyiv, Dnipro, and Odesa. According to the head of the Kyiv region's military administration, five locations in the region around the capital were affected by the attacks. A woman and a child were injured by falling debris. In Dnipro, two people were injured, while in Odesa, drone strikes hit infrastructure. Poland deployed aircraft to protect its airspace due to the threat of Russian attacks. Russia bombards Ukrainian cities and infrastructure daily, causing a severe energy crisis. Temperatures have plummeted, reaching -10 degrees Celsius. In the city of Lviv, near the Polish border, a bomb attack killed a 23-year-old police officer and injured 14 people. The attack was condemned as "terrorist" by the city's mayor.
