Russian missile and drone barrage in Ukrainian capital region kills 15Russian missile and drone strikes on Kyiv and surrounding areas killed at least 15 people and injured 42 overnight. The attack was the latest in a series of large-scale Russian ballistic missile strikes that have become near-routine this summer. In the wider Kyiv region around the capital, 14 people were killed and 27 wounded, with fires at multiple locations in Brovary, Bucha and Fastiv districts, Ukraine’s emergence service said. Serhii Beskrestnov, an adviser to Ukraine’s president on defense technology development, said the war of attrition has entered a new phase. “The enemy is attacking everything indiscriminately – retail warehouses, food storage facilities, logistics hubs, enterprises, building materials warehouses,” he said on Facebook.
