Ukraine Under Fire: Russian Drones Devastate Ukrainian Cities, Zelenskyy Vows Retaliation | N18G

Russia launched a massive wave of aerial attacks on Ukraine, including 597 drones and 26 missiles, over Friday and Saturday, killing at least two people and injuring 20. The western cities of Lviv, Lutsk, and Chernivtsi were hit hardest, with significant damage to homes, businesses, and public buildings. In Lviv, 46 houses, a university, and court buildings were damaged. Kharkiv in the east was also struck, with warehouses and an inactive enterprise targeted. Ukraine’s air defense forces intercepted 25 missiles and 319 drones, and jammed 258 others using electronic warfare. President Volodymyr Zelenskiy emphasized ongoing efforts to secure more Patriot air defense systems and boost domestic drone production. He also vowed to continue retaliatory drone strikes on Russian territory. These attacks are part of a recent escalation in Russia’s aerial campaign, and Ukraine is responding with both defensive and offensive measures to counter the increasing threat.
