Kyiv marks a day of mourning on Friday for victims of a Russian missile and drone attack on Thursday that killed at least 30 people, according to Ukrainian officials. Flags are lowered to half-mast as rescuers clear rubble at the damaged sites in the capital and continue searching for possible survivors. Reporting across outlets says the death toll is around 30, with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy visiting the affected area earlier. One outlet also cites Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko, who says the attack wounds 92 people.
The articles describe the response effort focused on searching through debris and securing damaged buildings after the barrage. Several sources characterize the strike as the deadliest on Kyiv this year, and mention that authorities set aside the following day for mourning after the attack. The overall reporting remains consistent that the strike involved both missiles and drones and that the immediate aftermath is dominated by ongoing rescue work and a nationwide period of mourning.
