Russia Launches Deadliest Ukraine Attack
Ukrainian officials reported that hundreds of Russian drones and dozens of ballistic missiles pounded the country overnight in a massive escalation of hostilities.
The attack caused widespread damage to critical infrastructure and residential buildings, leaving thousands without power.
In Odesa alone, at least eight people were confirmed dead, including a 12-year-old child.
The assault comes as Ukraine continues to appeal for more advanced air defense systems to counter Russia's intensifying campaign against non-military targets.
