Deadly Russian Strikes Hit Kyiv on Eve of NATO Summit as Tensions Escalate
Russia has launched its second major attack on Ukraine's capital in less than a week, firing ballistic missiles into Kyiv. The attack, which occurred on the eve of a NATO summit, has resulted in at least 12 deaths, according to officials.
Explosions rocked the city early on Monday, with President Volodymyr Zelensky confirming the casualties on social media. He stated that 64 others were wounded, including two children.
The conflict in Ukraine is expected to dominate the NATO meeting, which will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday. The war has escalated in recent weeks, with both Russia and Ukraine intensifying strikes on each other's cities.
Ukraine has adopted a new strategy, using drone strikes to target Russian oil refineries and military production facilities. This has led to fuel shortages across Russia. Despite Moscow's efforts to advance on the battlefield, its progress has largely stalled.
However, the Russian military continues to launch missile and drone attacks on Ukrainian cities, overwhelming the country's air defenses and hitting residential areas, factories, and warehouses. The situation is likely to be discussed during the upcoming NATO summit, which President Zelensky is expected to attend.
