In a significant escalation of hostilities, Russia launched its second largest aerial assault on Kyiv last night, deploying 600 drones and 31 missiles targeting civilian infrastructure. The strikes hit residential areas, civilian trains, and the offices of the European Union and British missions, resulting in widespread panic and destruction.

General Keith Kellogg, a prominent figure in U.S. defense circles, condemned the attacks, emphasizing that these assaults undermine the peace efforts being pursued by U.S. President Donald Trump. The bombings come at a time when diplomatic channels are critical, raising concerns about the potential for further escalation in the ongoing conflict.

This latest barrage follows a series of similar attacks that have increasingly focused on civilian targets rather than military installations. As previously reported, the conflict has drawn international condemnation, with many world leaders calling for an immediate cessation of hostilities and a return to negotiations.

As the situation develops, the implications for regional stability remain severe. The ongoing violence threatens not only the safety of civilians in Ukraine but also complicates international diplomatic efforts aimed at resolving the crisis in Eastern Europe. The global community is watching closely as the ramifications of these attacks unfold.
