Russia is taking advantage of the Zelensky government crisis to launch a major attack on Kiev.

On July 19, 2026, a missile strike hit a subway station near the Lukianivska stop in Kyiv, causing significant damage and displacing hundreds of residents. The attack occurred during nighttime bombardments, which have become more frequent recently. While the subway system serves as a critical shelter for civilians during attacks, reports indicate that explosions sometimes occur before warning sirens sound, leaving people vulnerable. The incident highlights ongoing tensions in the war between Ukraine and Russia, with Vladimir Zelenskyy and Vladimir Putin remaining central figures in the conflict.
