Russian forces launched a large-scale attack on Kyiv overnight, resulting in at least 17 fatalities and numerous injuries. The capital city experienced significant damage from the strikes.
The attacks occurred after Ukrainian President Zelenskyy had issued a warning about an impending 'massive strike.' In response to the widespread assault, Poland scrambled its jets, and Finland moved to restrict its airspace.
The overnight assault has been described as a major and deadly offensive against Ukraine's capital. Photos from Kyiv show the aftermath of the extensive damage. This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
