A large-scale drone attack by Russia on Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, resulted in three deaths, including a child and an elderly woman, while 10 others were injured. Local officials confirmed multiple explosions and reported that Russian forces launched nearly 150 drones, with Ukraine's Air Force claiming to have intercepted about 100. This high toll of casualties is unusual for Kyiv, which is typically well-defended. The attack aligns with an increase in Russian assaults on the city, occurring just before U.S.-mediated cease-fire talks were to commence in Saudi Arabia.
