Ukraine hit by large Russian aerial assault as NATO talks loom
Russia launched one of its largest recent aerial strikes on Kyiv hours before a NATO focused meeting on U S plans to arm Ukraine. The attack killed two, wounded 15, including a 12 year old. A drone struck near a Kyiv subway entrance as citizens sheltered. Major damage hit Darnytskyi district, flames at a kindergarten, supermarket and warehouse. Ukraine pressed allies for faster air defense and more Patriot systems while talks on drone and weapon transfers continued.
