Quick Glance: Russia Launches Extreme Air Attack on Kyiv
- In the early hours of Tuesday, Russia launched an extremely intense air attack on Kyiv, using drones, cruise and probably ballistic missiles.
- Serhiy Popko, head of Kyiv's military administration, said that the density of the attack was exceptional - the maximum number of attack missiles in the shortest period of time.
- After a weeks-long hiatus, Russia resumed its tactic of long-range missile strikes in late April and has launched a flurry of attacks in recent days, often targeting Kyiv.
- Officials reported debris falling in Kyiv's Obolonskyi, Shevchenkivskyi, Solomyanskyi and Darnytskyi districts.
