The strikes are the most significant immediately reported global security development, with casualties reported across Ukraine and damage in the capital. Reuters reported explosions in Kyiv, while other reporting said the National Academy of Sciences was set ablaze and at least 10 people were killed in attacks on Monday. The developments come during the fifth year of Russia’s war against Ukraine, amid continuing diplomatic calls for peace and claims that North Korean troops may be deployed to support Russia.
