Russia unleashed a massive missile and drone attack on Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities, killing at least 14 people and wounding 55 in the capital in one of the deadliest assaults since the start of the full-scale invasion in February 2022.
Part of a nine-story apartment building in the western part of Kyiv collapsed after what may have been a direct hit by a missile during the nine-hour onslaught, and officials said the death toll could rise as rescuers searched through rubble.
At least one person was killed in Odesa, authorities said, and Russia also targeted the southeastern city of Zaporizhzhya, closer to the front in a region that Russian forces are attempting to push into on the ground.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Russia launched more than 440 drones and 32 missiles in the attack overnight into June 17, which also targeted several other regions.
