0:46Now PlayingRussia unleashed a fresh wave of aerial attacks across Ukraine, killing at least 18 people in two cities and destroying several buildings. Explosions were heard in the capital, Kyiv, marking the first assault there in more than a month.
The strikes involved Tupolev Tu-95 bombers coming from Russia’s Caspian Sea region as well as drones, Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief Valeriy Zaluzhnyi said Friday. Ukraine’s air defenses destroyed 21 of the 23 attacking cruise missiles, as well as two drones, he said on Telegram.
Just over a year into its invasion, Russia is locked in a web of complex ground battles in Ukraine’s east, and has also relied heavily on aerial fire-power to strike far-flung targets. But large-scale missile attacks have become less frequent in recent months after they largely failed to bring down Ukraine’s energy network over winter.
Both sides have been preparing for an expected counteroffensive by Ukrainian forces this spring.
