Russian forces launched a brutal overnight attack on Kyiv, killing at least eight people—among them a six-year-old boy—and injuring dozens more, including nine children. Drones and missiles struck over 27 locations, with one blast collapsing part of a nine-story apartment building. The relentless explosions kept the city awake for hours, marking yet another harrowing night for civilians in Ukraine’s capital.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another headline—it’s a grim reminder of the ongoing toll of Russia’s invasion, now stretching into its third year. Civilians, including kids, are paying the price as attacks on cities like Kyiv become routine. The world might be fatigued by the news cycle, but for Ukrainians, these strikes aren’t abstract; they’re sleepless nights, lost homes, and shattered lives. It underscores how far this war is from ending—and how urgently global attention (and aid) still matters.
