The attacks represent a renewed escalation in Russia’s aerial campaign against Ukraine, with strikes reported across both northeastern and western parts of the country. Ukrainian officials said Russia used more than 100 missiles and drones from Monday evening onward, causing casualties and damage to homes and other infrastructure. Zelenskyy said intelligence sharing from international partners is crucial to protecting civilians and questioned why Ukraine was not alerted in advance. The strikes come despite claims of an energy-related ceasefire and amid wider concern over possible changes in U.S. support for Kyiv.
