Russia rained missiles and drones overnight on Kyiv, killing six people, authorities said Tuesday, as three people died in Russia’s Rostov region in massive Ukrainian strikes.
The heightened attacks came after US President Donald Trump initially gave Kyiv until November 27 – the American holiday of Thanksgiving – to respond to his proposal to end the fighting, a timeline and blueprint that European leaders have baulked at.
Tymur Tkachenko, head of Kyiv’s military administration, said four people died and at least three were wounded in the Svyatoshynsky district. Emergency services earlier said two people died in a strike on a residential building in the eastern Dniprovsky quarter.
Before dawn Tuesday, Russia’s defence ministry said it had intercepted and destroyed 249 Ukrainian drones – one of the highest figures reported.
In Russia’s Rostov region, acting governor Yuri Sliusar said at least three people were killed, adding: “Tonight’s enemy attack brought great grief”.
