Russia’s Missile and Drone Attacks on Ukraine Kill at Least 21

UKRAINE – Russia unleashed waves of missiles and drones at Ukraine early Monday, killing at least 21 people in attacks that exposed widening gaps in the country’s air defenses more than four years into Moscow’s full-scale invasion.

15 people were killed in the capital of Kyiv, which was Russia’s main target, and 56 were injured.

Another six people were killed in the wider Kyiv region and 21 were injured.

Emergency workers searched for survivors in the rubble of residential high-rises in two locations that suffered direct hits.

On Thursday, a Russian strike killed 31 people in Kyiv, the deadliest attack in the capital this year.
