Russia has attacked Ukraine with ballistic missiles and drones, killing at least 17 people and leaving at least 44 injured, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky said, the BBC reports. In one of the deadliest strikes across Kyiv this year, which started after midnight on Wednesday, the head of the city’s military administration, Timur Tkachenko, said the “enemy is once again massively attacking”. Air raid alerts were in place for more than an hour as the capital’s military administration said the barrage damaged residential buildings and warehouses. Ukraine has urged allies for more US-made Patriot missile interceptors to defend against Russian ballistic attacks. The Russia defence ministry said it had struck logistics hubs and supply centres in Kyiv and the surrounding region.
