10 Russian missile strike causes chaos in Kyiv; Over 50 injured

In a second missile assault within a week, Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, faced a barrage of 10 Russian ballistic missiles, resulting in over 50 injuries and substantial property damage.

The attack occurred at approximately 3 a.m. (0100 GMT), with Ukraine's Air Force successfully intercepting all missiles, according to reports on Telegram. Falling debris from the explosions inflicted injuries and destruction across four districts along the Dnipro River, cutting through the heart of Kyiv.

Windows shattered at a children's hospital in the Dniprovskyi district, but initial assessments indicated no casualties.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, seeking international support, appealed for assistance in Washington, while the United States expressed concern, warning of potential consequences for failing to aid Ukraine.
