Three waves of ballistic strikes hit Kyiv, damaging homes, warehouses and a maternity hospital. Patients and staff were unharmed in the hospital’s shelter. Across the overnight attack, Russia used 282 drones alongside ballistic and hypersonic missiles, Ukraine’s Air Force said, reporting 227 aerial targets destroyed or suppressed. Separately, a Russian strike on a farm in Stara Hnylytsia in the Kharkiv region killed six workers and injured 12.
Airspace incursions also occurred in neighboring Romania and Moldova during the overnight attacks. Romania scrambled two F-16s after a drone crossed from Ukraine and crashed near Solca, with no casualties or damage reported. Moldovan authorities reported four aerial objects entering from Ukraine and temporarily suspended flights in the country’s north. Teams investigated an explosion near Cernița, where no casualties were reported.
