Russian forces unleashed a new round of missiles towards Ukraine on Monday, ramping up attacks on the central and southeastern regions of the country.
“We see that strategic bombers have taken off and the first wave of missiles was already launched,” said Yurii Ihnat, spokesman for the Ukrainian Air Forces, adding that there may be several more assaults.
The deadly strikes killed at least one person in the Ukrainian city of Kryvyi Rih, and at least two people in Zaporizhzhia, according to local authorities. Air defense systems in the capital, Kyiv, are also “working” due to the “movement of missiles towards the region,” according to military official Oleksii Kuleba. This is a breaking news story.
