Russia has launched waves of drone and missile attacks on Ukrainian cities early Tuesday, killing three people and wounding at least thirteen others, Ukrainian officials reported.
In the southern port city of Odesa, a maternity hospital and nearby residential buildings sustained significant damage. Three civilians were killed and nine injured, according to the regional prosecutor’s office.
In the capital Kyiv, four people were injured as explosions and drone activity lasted for hours. AP journalists on the ground reported hearing the buzzing of drones and multiple detonations throughout the night.
The attacks followed Russia's largest overnight drone assault of the war, with nearly 500 drones launched just hours earlier — a likely retaliation for Ukraine’s June 1 drone strike on remote Russian air bases.
Kyiv residents took shelter in metro stations during the bombardment. “I just try not to think about it,” said Nina Nosivets, 32, who huddled underground with her 8-month-old son. “I distract the child somehow because it’s probably the hardest for him to bear.”
In Kyiv alone, fires broke out in four districts, triggered by falling debris from intercepted drones. “I thought the drone would fly away,” said resident Vasyl Pesenko, 25, whose kitchen was damaged. “But it got closer and everything blew away.”
While the exchange of prisoners of war continues between Ukraine and Russia—one of the few outcomes of recent Istanbul peace talks—hopes for a ceasefire remain distant amid ongoing deadly strikes.
