Kyiv's Mayor, Vitali Klitschko, has warned of a "very dramatic situation" in the Ukrainian capital, with intensified Russian missile strikes severely damaging critical energy infrastructure. The attacks have left much of the city without power and heating, raising concerns over the grid's integrity.
German police reported the discovery of a drone carrying explosives within the cargo area of Hamburg Airport, positioned near a Ukrainian aircraft. Separately, another suspected object reportedly collided with a cargo aircraft in mid-air.
A Russian ballistic missile strike on Kyiv resulted in one fatality and multiple injuries, with residential buildings sustaining damage. Ukrainian officials reported air defences intercepted most projectiles, but falling debris caused destruction in several districts.
Footage depicts a Russian drone targeting a terrified Ukrainian civilian street vendor, described by Kyiv as a war crime. The video circulated on Russian social media, prompting condemnation.
