Russia Launches Massive Drone and Missile Barrage Across Ukraine, Killing Six and Cutting Power

TrumpPutin summit plans are suspended, prompting Zelensky to seek tougher Western action.

Overview

  • Ukraine's air force reported 405 attack and decoy drones plus 28 missiles targeting Kyiv and at least nine other regions in overnight strikes.
  • Debris ignited high-rise fires in the capital, where authorities reported multiple rescues and deaths, and dozens were injured nationwide.
  • Energy facilities were hit, with Ukrenergo ordering emergency outages across most regions and DTEK reporting major damage in Odesa.
  • A drone struck a kindergarten in Kharkiv during school hours, leaving one dead and several wounded as children were moved to shelters.
  • Kyiv said it struck a Russian chemical plant in Bryansk with Storm Shadow missiles the night before, as U.S. officials said no TrumpPutin summit is planned and Zelensky appealed for tougher sanctions and longer‑range arms.
