Russia launches an attack on Kyiv, with explosions reported across the capital, according to multiple reports. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had warned earlier that Russia was preparing another “massive strike” on Kyiv, hours before the attacks began. The New York Times reports that the assault starts after Zelensky’s warning and that at least 13 people are killed. The reports describe the strikes as occurring in the capital area, prompting immediate emergency responses. Both accounts attribute the timing of the attack to the lead-up period following Zelensky’s public warning, framing the strikes as a response within a broader pattern of bombardment. While the available information focuses on casualties and the pre-attack alert, the sources do not provide detailed information here on the specific weapons used, the locations targeted within Kyiv, or further damage assessments. The reporting remains consistent on the core points: the explosions in Kyiv, the earlier Ukrainian warning, and the reported death toll.
