Related: About this forumDeadly Missile And Drone Strikes Batter Ukraine For Second Night - Times News
At least 13 people, including three children, were killed and dozens injured in Russian drone and missile strikes, regional officials and emergency services said.
The attack was the second large-scale assault on the country in 48 hours, coming a day after the Ukrainian capital Kyiv suffered one of the heaviest assaults since the start of the Russian invasion.
Saturday's strikes, which killed 13 people across Ukraine, come as diplomatic efforts to end the fighting have resulted in prisoner exchanges, but Russia has not accepted calls for a ceasefire.
Russian President Vladimir Putin launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, and Moscow currently controls about 20% of Ukrainian territory.
This includes Crimea - Ukraine's southern peninsula annexed by Russia in 2014. - 05/25/2025.
