Bryansk bears the brunt of a 'strongest' strike as missiles shrink Kyiv’s flight time
Ukraine says Bryansk region endured its most powerful and widespread attack yet, with ballistic missiles and drones launched toward Kyiv and aimed at crippling energy facilities; authorities report hundreds of unmanned aircraft shot down (about 229) and note Russia’s air defenses are stretched along the border, making Kyiv’s flight times a matter of minutes. Kyiv and analysts say such strikes serve to deter Ukraine, while Zelenskyy warns Moscow could mount a new large-scale assault as tensions rise.
