Russian Air Strikes Kill 17 in Ukraine Amid Shortage of Missile Interceptors
Russian forces deployed 28 missiles and 115 drones in a massive assault on Kyiv and surrounding areas. The barrage resulted in at least 17 deaths and dozens of injuries across the region. Local officials reported that 44 people were injured as emergency crews searched through the rubble. Zelenskyy stated that the high casualty count was a direct result of Ukraine's inability to stop the incoming missiles. He urged international partners to provide more anti-ballistic missile systems immediately. Current stocks of interceptors are strained by the frequency of Russian strikes. The lack of sufficient defense systems has left major population centers vulnerable to aerial bombardment.
