A major Russian attack on Ukraine involved dozens of missiles and hundreds of drones targeting cities across the country, resulting in at least 13 fatalities and widespread destruction. The assault extended as far west as Lviv, overwhelming Ukrainian air defenses. During the barrage, an object entered Polish airspace and crashed near the border. Polish officials, including Prime Minister Donald Tusk, believe it was a Russian Kh-101 missile, though investigations are ongoing. NATO member Poland scrambled fighter jets and secured the crash site for debris analysis.
The incident has intensified tensions between Russia and NATO, marking the second such event in recent months. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy urged Western allies to provide more advanced air defense systems. International condemnation followed, with the UN calling for de-escalation. The strikes damaged residential areas and critical infrastructure, underscoring the ongoing humanitarian crisis.
