"Devastating Missile Attack in Ukraine Leaves Civilians Dead and Injured"

Russian forces launched a barrage of missiles on regions across Ukraine, killing civilians and causing damage to infrastructure. The attack came just before a security conference where the conflict in Ukraine is expected to be discussed. The Ukrainian air force reported that Russia fired 28 cruise missiles, with 16 intercepted. The attacks resulted in casualties and damage in various regions, including Lviv, Volyn, Ivano-Frankivsk, Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kramatorsk. The repeated attacks on non-front-line regions, such as Odesa, have disrupted Ukraine's grain exports and historical sites. Russian President Vladimir Putin accused the West of fueling the conflict, while Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu downplayed the impact of Western support for Ukraine.
