Russia launched a “barrage” of missile strikes against critical infrastructure overnight, Ukrainian officials said. Dozens of missiles were fired at Ukraine, the General Staff of the Ukrainian army said Thursday, while critical infrastructure in Lviv was hit, according to the regional governor.
Ukraine shot down several Russian balloons that had flown over Kyiv, triggering air raid sirens, officials said Wednesday. The balloons were likely decoy targets meant to divert attention and waste ammunition, but some could also have been carrying surveillance equipment, officials said, which is why they were targeted.
