Russia Continues Air Strikes on Ukraine, Targets Kyiv and Khmelnytskyi Oblast.

Russia has targeted Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, for the third night running, with officials reporting falling debris causing several buildings to catch fire. Ukraine's air defences intercepted over 20 drones, with at least one person killed. This marks the 17th attack on the capital since May, with Russia using kamikaze drones, cruise and ballistic missiles. Analysts suggest Moscow is seeking to deplete and damage Ukraine's air defences ahead of its long-expected counter-offensive. Ukraine has been planning a counter-offensive for months, but it has wanted as much time as possible to train troops and receive military equipment from Western allies.
