At least 31 people, including five children, were killed in Russia’s worst airstrike on Kyiv this year, Ukrainian officials confirmed. The attack, involving over 300 drones and missiles, caused severe damage, including a collapsed apartment block in the Sviatoshyn district, according to Reuters.
President Zelensky said rescue efforts had ended and promised support for victims. In Kharkiv, a separate drone strike injured 10, including three children.
US President Trump condemned Russia’s actions as “disgusting” and warned of economic pressure if Putin doesn’t make a deal by August 8, Reuters reported.
