Overview

  • Ukrainian officials reported at least four dead, including two children, and more than 20 injured after the latest nighttime assault on the capital.
  • Kyiv’s military administration said a five‑story residential building in Darnytskyi was destroyed and a 25‑story tower in Dniprovskyi was damaged, with fires and debris recorded across multiple districts.
  • Authorities described a combined attack using missiles and drones, as air defenses engaged targets and residents sheltered in subway stations and garages.
  • Rescue operations continued to locate people under rubble while damage assessments counted hundreds of affected sites and thousands of shattered windows citywide.
  • Survivors and watchdogs continue to report delays and obstacles in compensation and rebuilding, even as diplomatic efforts show little tangible progress toward halting the strikes.
