Russian jet-drone strikes hit Kyiv and multiple regions across Ukraine overnight, killing at least 10 people and setting off fires in the capital, according to local authorities and media reports. Among the damaged sites was the Kyiv Science Academy, underscoring the widening reach of Moscow’s air campaign against civilian and symbolic targets.
The attacks came as European calls for de-escalation again failed to produce any visible restraint from Moscow, deepening pressure on Ukraine’s air defenses and on Western governments weighing further military support.
