Baghdad: Ukrainian authorities announced that the government headquarters in Kyiv was damaged today as a result of the largest Russian air attack ever, using more than 800 drones and missiles, leaving at least five dead, including two in the capital.

According to National Iraqi News Agency, Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko confirmed the unprecedented scale of the attack. She stated, “For the first time, the roof and upper floors of the government headquarters have been damaged by a Russian attack.” This highlights the intensifying conflict and the increasing threat to key infrastructure in Ukraine’s capital.

Furthermore, the Ukrainian Air Force reported that Russia launched 810 drones and 13 missiles at Ukraine overnight. This large-scale offensive marks a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict, raising concerns over the potential for further casualties and damage to other critical infrastructure across the nation.

The impact of this attack is expected to reverberate beyond the immediate physical damage, as it underscores the persistent tensions and the grave challenges faced by Ukrainian authorities in safeguarding the nation’s sovereignty and security.
