2 dead in Ukraine from Russian attacks, 4 more in Russian-held area hit by Ukrainian drones
Russian officials said Ukrainian drones killed four civilians in Horlivka, while missile and glide-bomb strikes wounded at least 10 more in Ukraine.
Russian ballistic missiles struck Kyiv early Sunday, wounding three civilians and sparking fires, while separate attacks in Zaporizhzhia and Kharkiv killed two people, local officials reported.
Separately, Kremlin-installed authorities in Horlivka reported a Ukrainian drone strike killed four civilians, while Russia's defense ministry claimed to have intercepted 133 Ukrainian drones over Russia, the Black Sea, and Crimea.
In Zaporizhzhia, a Russian glide bomb killed one man and wounded six, according to Mayor Ivan Fedorov, while a drone strike on Kharkiv killed one person and wounded six, including two children, Mayor Igor Terekhov reported.
Following a major Russian strike near Kyiv on Friday that killed at least 10 people and wounded around 100, Sunday's attacks reflect an escalating cycle of tit-for-tat strikes dimming diplomatic prospects.
Finnish President Alexander Stubb claimed on Sunday that "Ukraine's position is stronger than ever since the war began," asserting that continued support from partners is critical to maintaining momentum.
