Ukraine Hit By Overnight Russian Strikes Across Country

Russia launched nocturnal drone and missile attacks on four Ukrainian areas, injuring at least three people, the Ukrainian armed forces said on Sunday.

According to the Air Force, eight Shahed-type explosive drones, two Iskander missiles, and three S-300 missiles were launched, with four being shot down.

The air force reported that civilian sites and “critical infrastructure” were targeted in central Poltava, eastern Donetsk, southeastern Zaporizhzhia, and central Dnipropetrovsk.

It provided no further information.

According to the prosecutor’s office in Donetsk, one missile fell on a residential part of the city, injuring people.

According to the report, a 15-year-old kid and a 35-year-old man were injured, while a 30-year-old occupant in a neighboring residence sustained brain injuries.

Cities and towns near the wide border in the east and south have been subjected to daily shelling in the nearly two years since Russia invaded, despite Moscow’s repeated denials that it targets residential areas.

According to the United Nations, at least 10,000 civilians, and most likely many more, have been killed in Ukraine since February 2022.

To repel Russian attacks, Ukraine relies heavily on Western-supplied weapons and ammunition.

However, US and EU aid is currently at a stop.
