US EditionRussia Launches Largest Airstrikes of War as Prisoner Exchange Concludes
- On the night to Sunday, Russia launched its largest aerial assault of the war, striking multiple Ukrainian cities including Kyiv, Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, Ternopil, and Khmelnytskyi.
- The attack followed a three-day prisoner exchange where Russia and Ukraine swapped 1,000 captives each, the biggest since Moscow's full-scale invasion in February 2022.
- Ukraine’s air force reported that during the overnight attack, Russian forces deployed nearly 300 drones along with 69 missiles. Ukrainian defenses successfully intercepted 266 of the drones and 45 of the missiles. The assault resulted in at least 12 fatalities and numerous injuries across multiple regions.
- Ukrainian officials described the assault as a 'combined, ruthless strike aimed at civilians' and noted child victims aged eight, 12, and 17, while President Zelensky called for stronger international sanctions against Russia.
- The attacks hindered ongoing efforts for a 30-day ceasefire and prompted calls from international figures like Kaja Kallas and U.S. Envoy Keith Kellogg for an immediate halt to hostilities to prevent further civilian harm.
