Russia Unleashes Most Widespread Strike Against Ukraine In Months
Newsy
Russian President Vladimir Putin said the explosions were in retaliation for a Ukrainian attack on a critical Crimea bridge.
Horror and chaos unfolded in the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, after Russia unleashed a string of missile attacks targeting bridges, power plants and other civilian infrastructure.
Russia launched at least 84 cruise missiles toward Ukraine, causing explosions that rocked at least a dozen cities including Lviv in the West and Kharkiv in the Northeast. The attacks left at least 14 people dead, with at least five of the deaths just in Kyiv.
The blasts shook cities that enjoyed relative normalcy recently, with most the fighting concentrated in the south and east of the country. The strikes on Kyiv were the first in four months.
