Russia launched its largest aerial barrage on Ukraine, deploying 805 drones and 13 missiles, causing significant damage and casualties in Kyiv.
The attack directly struck the seat of the Ukrainian government, setting the roof of the cabinet of ministers ablaze, marking the first such hit in the war.
At least two people, including a mother and her two-month-old son, were killed in a strike on a residential building, with numerous others wounded.
This massive assault followed European countries pledging 'reassurance' forces to patrol a potential peace deal, a move Moscow has deemed unacceptable.
