Russian missile and drone barrage kills two and wounds 19 in Ukraine

Russian forces conducted a major aerial assault on Kyiv, launching ballistic missiles and over 120 drones, resulting in at least two civilian deaths and 19 injuries. The attack targeted multiple districts, causing significant damage to infrastructure including a transformer substation and a three-story building. Ukrainian officials confirmed casualties included an 11-year-old child, with several victims requiring urgent medical attention. President Zelenskyy noted that while air defenses managed to intercept most drones and some missiles, all six ballistic missiles bypassed defenses. The attack underscores the growing threat to Kyiv's airspace as defense systems face shortages and delays in receiving Western military support.

Bias read (Center): The article presents a factual account of the attack without overtly favoring any side. It includes quotes from Ukrainian officials and describes both the scale of the attack and the defensive efforts, maintaining a balanced tone. There is no clear ideological slant in the framing or emphasis.
