Russia hits Ukraine with biggest air attack of war, setting government building ablaze

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the drone and missile barrage killed four people and caused damage across the north, south and east of the country, including the cities of Zaporizhzhia, Kryvyi Rih and Odesa, as well as in the Sumy and Chernihiv regions. Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko said it was the first time in the war that the main government building in Kyiv had been hit, a symbolic blow to a well-defended part of the city. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said in a post on X that the Russian attack on Kyiv’s government showed "again that the continued delaying (of) a strong reaction against Putin and the attempts to appease him made no sense".
