Mass Russian drone and missile attack kills 14 and injures 48 in Ukraine’s capital

  • On August 28, 2025, Russian forces carried out a large-scale drone and missile assault on Kyiv, resulting in the deaths of at least eight individuals, among them a child.
  • The attack followed ongoing stalled peace talks, with Kyiv urging increased pressure on Moscow to force real negotiation steps.
  • The strikes targeted more than 20 sites across five districts, causing the collapse of a five-level apartment building in the Darnytskyi area and damaging key roadways.
  • Mayor Vitali Klitschko called it a "massive attack," Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko confirmed at least eight deaths and about 38 wounded, and rescuers used robotic equipment to clear rubble faster.
  • The attack caused widespread destruction and displacement, reinforcing Kyiv’s calls for Western security guarantees and harsher sanctions against Russia if diplomacy fails.
