## Resource

Kyiv endured a devastating early morning missile barrage as Russia escalated its war, warning foreign diplomats to flee — just days after Ukraine launched daring drone strikes deep into Russian territory targeting oil and energy infrastructure. Smoke choked the capital, residents scrambled to metro stations, and fires erupted across neighborhoods, trapping some under rubble. Ukraine denies responsibility for a drone attack in Luhansk, while Russia vows “systematic strikes” on key Ukrainian targets. President Zelensky confirms Ukraine’s offensive aims to cripple Russia’s war machine by cutting off fuel supplies — as the conflict intensifies, civilians pay the price.
