Massive Russian Drone Attack on Ukraine Causes Casualties and Destruction

In one of the largest drone assaults since the beginning of the conflict, Russia launched a record 267 drones targeting various regions of Ukraine on the eve of the third anniversary of the war. This extensive attack resulted in at least one confirmed death in Kryvyi Rih and significant damage to civilian infrastructure, including houses in Kyiv. Amid air defense operations attempting to intercept Russian drones, casualties have been reported across the country, with injuries affecting civilians, including women and children. Ukrainian officials have described this onslaught as a new low in aerial terror, prompting calls for increased support from international allies. As the conflict continues, both nations remain embroiled in disputes regarding military and mineral negotiations, complicating the ongoing hostilities.
