Russian Drone Missile Attacks Kill 14, Wound 44 in Kyiv

A devastating Russian missile and drone attack struck Kyiv overnight, killing at least 14 people, including a U.S. citizen, and injuring over 40 others, according to Ukrainian officials. The assault caused widespread destruction, with more than 30 apartments destroyed and fires breaking out in multiple districts due to debris from intercepted drones. The attack came amid the Group of Seven summit in Canada, where Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was invited and expected to meet with world leaders, although a planned meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump was canceled after Trump cut his visit short due to Middle East tensions. Ukrainian authorities condemned the strikes as part of Moscow's continued war against civilians, with emergency workers conducting ongoing search and rescue operations under the rubble. Despite efforts at peace talks in Istanbul, no significant progress has been made, and Russia has maintained a high tempo of attacks following a Ukrainian raid on Russian airbases. The international community remains engaged as Kyiv endures repeated assaults while seeking diplomatic resolutions.
